Pond’s Wet Cleansing Towelettes



I have to admit that when I hear Pond’s I automatically think of grandma’s medicine cabinet and wonder how the cream always did stay cold. Well now Pond’s has prepackaged, Wet Cleansing Towelettes. After bragging about smudge-proof and waterproof eye makeup, I realized that even with some of the most expensive cleansers, I still looked like a raccoon the next day.

Exasperated with an exhausted beauty budget, I grabbed a trial sized pack of the Pond’s Wet Cleansing Towelettes and threw it in my Target shopping cart. I peeled open the pack to find a sudsy moist towel ready to do the job. It stripped away all of the makeup residue from my face that I didn’t know was still there and took off the thick voluminous mascara and sharp eye color that I was excited about the night before. After using the Pond’s Towelette, I rinsed my face with cool water and was back to my clear and natural complexion.

Urban Decay Heavy Metal Glitter Eyeliner





Urban Decay makes another appearance on, “The Vanity Addiction.” I love anything that sparkles and the Urban Decay Heavy Metal Glitter Eyeliner makes a statement. I am constantly asked how I achieve such a fine line of glitter in such vivid colors on my eyes. For all of you who have been wondering, Heavy Metal is the secret. Urban Decay boasts of some of the boldest color on the beauty market. From nails, to lips and eyes, Urban Decay has the color for the, “It Girl,” who loves to make an entrance. The Heavy Metal Glitter Eyeliner is a clear liquid loaded with vibrant glitter color and applied with a needlepoint brush. Design your mood by painting on a gilded glow to lids with jewel-toned metallic color.

Liquif-Eye



Too Faced Cosmetics is a personal fave for eye make-up. I know. I know…there are so many brands out there with so many products to choose from. Although Too Faced is a brand not as well known as some of the other big dogs, I think that it is one of the most innovative and exciting cosmetic brands. I have always been a fan of bold eye color and precision in color placement on eye lids. Liquif-Eye allows you to use your favorite eye shadow and achieve sharp and precise color by using the Liquif-Eye wand to create a water resistant liquid liner. Gently dip the wand into your favorite shadow and paint a perfect line of pop color on your lids. Wipe the tip of the brush with dry tissue to clean off the excess shadow and simply close the bottle and reuse again and again with whatever color you choose.

This product provides and incredible way to diversify the eye shadow color palate that you already own. Trust me it is one of the best investments you’ll make in your cosmetic collection. Liquif-Eye is a great product for the frugal fashionista to stretch your beauty bucks. With Liquif-Eye you can use an inexpensive eye shadow and intensify the color and make it smudge resistant with one stroke.
