$22.00 USD (0.05oz/1.6g) Available from: Sue Devitt Beauty Sue Devitt Eye Intensifier Pencils are long-wearing, water-resistant, jumbo sized eye pencils with a sponge-tip “smudger” on one end. I don’t care for the smudger; it really just pushes the product around on the skin instead of blending it in. The formula is usually very soft but you have(…)

$11.99 USD Available from: Royal & Langnickel What’s that old expression? “Fool me once…” Royal & Langnickel is on their second strike with me and I’m unsure whether or not they deserve a third chance at bat. The C140 (also called the BC140) Silk Bronzer Brush is almost as useful as a trap door in a canoe. Literally unusable as a(…)
$24.00 USD (0.13oz/3.8g) Available from: Estée Lauder Estée Lauder Lavish Pink Pure Color Crystal Lipstick is part of the Limited Edition Pink Ribbon Collection available through October 2011. It’s an amazingly pretty, ultra soft, moisture-rich, sheer pink with a soft sparkle! (I thought ALL that would sound better than, “This is SO PRETTY!”) Goldilocks would LOVE this lipstick. Lavish Pink is JUUUST RIGHT. It’s not(…)

$9.95 USD (0.676 fl oz/20ml) Available from: Coastal Scents Coastal Scents Bright Eyed Eye Brightener is a lightweight highlighting cream in a squeeze tube with a point-tipped applicator.
