Revlon ColorStay Mineral Lipglaze
Sunday, December 6th, 2009
Everyone likes the way lipgloss looks, but it fades fast. Revlon’s first longwearing lipgloss, ColorStay Mineral Lipglaze, lasts for up to 8 hours. We tried it out and found that it didn’t wear off during the day, even after a lunch. More importantly, it didn’t strip our lips of moisture like typical long wearing formulas tend to.
The gloss stays on for so long because of its mineral complex, which seals the formula on your lips. Our favorite shade is Infinite Rose, which goes on sheer and has a nice grapefruit smell to it.

Maybelline Expert Wear Eyeshadow Trio
Thursday, December 3rd, 2009
Maybelline tends to always stay current on color trends. Their Ivy League trio of shadow is right on time with summer green shades. The light shade goes on the lid, the medium shade in the crease, and the light color for the brow bone or the inner corner of the eye. Instructions are printed on the shadows, making work to cocktail makeup application easy.
These are colors are high in pigment, so what you see is what you get. This particular trio is not for you if you like subtle color. They also have a somewhat metallic finish that’s very flattering. Not sure what palette to get? Try the Maybelline Color Advisor at http://www.maybelline.com/mca/index.aspx to see the best colors for you.

L’Oreal Double Extend Beauty Tubes Lash Extension Effect Mascara
Wednesday, November 11th, 2009
If you’re lashes are your favorite thing to enhance you’ll love L’Oreal Double Extend Beauty Tubes Lash Extension Effect Mascara. The dual sided tube contains a base coat and a regular mascara. First you use the base, which goes on sheer even though it’s white. Infused with Ceramide R and D Pathenol, the base coat conditions your lashes so they’ll actually look better over time. The mascara promises to make your lashes 80% longer. We got longer length, but what we liked the most about this product is that we could wash the mascara completely off, with no eyelash casualties (less lashes lost is always a plus)! L’Oreal’s Double Extend Mascara didn’t smudge or smear; even after a workout.
