Bourjois Does An Eye Good!

Bourjoissss_2Have you ever applied a product, stepped back and declared, “This is exactly what I’ve been looking for!” It doesn’t happen often but it did for me with BOURJOiSnew Shimmering Shine Liquid Eye Shadow ($16 @ ulta.com). This shadow has single-handedly got me really excited about beauty right now. Remember Suki shadow we featured last week? Same level of excitement! Wow, two weeks in a row!

Here’s the skinny: The formula is 55% water so that combined with the ultra-pearlized pigments leave you with a shimmering metallic finish that is sooo beautiful! And it also dries quickly to a water-resistant finish, from what I experienced. Color picks: Gris Platine (silvery grey with a blue accent) and Brun Magnetique (ultra iridescent brown).

Suki Give Good Eye

SUKI COLOR's Triple Cream Eye Definer ($41.95 @ sukicolor.com) are some of the best cream shadows I have ever used. It’s a very thin formula but totally buildable. Need nighttime sex appeal? Allure’s May issue declaredSukismoke a wet looking smoky eye will be the #1 look for fall. And the deep rich slightly shimmery gray of Smoke will give you this look. Another way to use this cream is by using it as a straight up liner or crease color. The coppery brown of Amber is perfect for this. While it seems that any kind of stiff brush will work well to blend these, I found that a sponge tip works best, especially when it comes to applying in the crease.

Quick Pick Eyes

Faceatelier2_2
I never thought I could do double-duty so thoroughly with a slim pencil but FACE ATELiER’s Powder Eye Pencil ($19.50 @ faceatelier.com) does it effortlessly. Then again, since this is a kohl liner, I should have guessed it would. Color pick: Satin Bronze (shimmer).

Hallo From Down Undah

BeccaI really do love makeup palettes. And what girl doesn’t? I can’t think of one line that doesn’t have one in their line. Sometimes they have a theme or they are just a great family of shades that are totally wearable like with this BECCA Sateen Eye Palette ($49 @ beccacosmetics.com). It’s just five fantastic mineral shades in one slim palette. Four Eye Colour Powders, one Eye Liner and a Mini Dual Ended Eye Powder/Eye Liner Brush. Are shimmers your thing these days? Or maybe, like me, you’re on the matte wagon? See what mood these shades fill.

Eye Colour Powder Shimmers in Tussah (antique gold) and Lame (silver-mauve shimmer), Eye Colour Demi Matt in Chantilly (lavender infused cream) and Tweed (warm burnished brown), Eyeliner in Bambi. These colors will work on anyone!

Everything's Coming Up Chanel

Let’s see what CHANEL has on deck with their Spring 2008 Collection. They’re feeling clean crisp colors and soft pastels. Eyes flip from soft and girly with one Eye Shadow Quad to bold and daring with the other Quad. Here’s what we’re feelin’:

Cha_3Eye Shadow Quad in Bleu Celestes ($55) – mix it up with the darker side of the collection and these navy tones. Navy is so happen’ for spring.
Rouge Allure Luminous Satin Lip Colour ($30) – this is my first experience with these really fun push-and-click-to-open lipsticks. And the blue pink of Frivole complements most any eye look.
4 Fleurs de Chanel Yeux-Eyes ($65) – pastel eyes would look swimmingly with any of Essie’s new polishes.
Glossimer in limited edition Waterlily ($26) – what’s not to love about these? And this shade is the perfect frosty pink color.
Yes, the Blue Navy Nail Colour is all the rage and can’t be found anywhere but I say, fine, accept it and paint on their Rose Satin ($19) shown here. All @ chanel.com

Next Up MAC

I’m really beginning to hate MAC. They don’t seem to really miss the boat, like ever! Not that I wish them ill but come on. It’s funny, some of my favorite eye shadows and lipsticks are ones I wear once in a great while but I look and admire them all the time. Yes, most of them are from MAC.

Here’s the latest collection – Fafi. What is a Fafi? Click here. I don’t when the last time a graffiti artist was celebrated. It happens but just not much. The new Fafi Collection from MAC is all girly and mostly pink! So if pink is your thing, this is right up your alley. Two instant favorites are the Nail Lacquers ($10) in Girls Will Be Girls (pink with coral pearl) and Boom! (rich eggplant with purple pearl). Not only will I be admiring these but I will for sure be wearing them. Another favorite are the Clearly Fafi ($15, $25, $34) cosmetic bags. I have to be able to see everything I’m carrying around, right? If you’re in the mood to get in touch with your inner girly-girl and play, this is a fun collection for just that.
