FOUND IT Friday!!!! And A new favorite~

Happy Friday, all!

Hope everyone had a nice St. Paddy's! If it was a little TOO nice, here are some tips to looking refreshed this morning ;)
- Moisturize!!
- Don't use dark eyeshadow, it will accentuate any darkness under the eyes.
- Use Mascara on top only, and curl your lashes to look more awake.
- Highlight your cheekbones.
- Wear a pink gloss, since pink is lively and youthful.

*Ulta 21 Days of Beauty Day 6: Benefit, Smashbox, and Murad. Free Benefit Brow Wax with $50 Benefit purchase, at participating locations. 

I am happy to say, that I finalyl have in my possession Physician Formula's new Eye Booster 2-in-1 Lash Boosting Eyeliner + Serum, $10.99 at Ulta.

Here is what it claims, as per PhysiciansFormula.com:

Whoo! Looks promising, huh?

Let's take a look:

This was my mess-up, but I wanted to show that it's not a felt tip pen, but rather a tapered brush-- it applies like a charm!! 

FYI I made the liner uber thick. 

I chose the brown shade since it's more likely I'll wear it every day than black. It also comes in Purple (I have yet to see it) and Clear, so you can wear it at night. I'm trying my best to wear it every day, and there will be a comparison post soon. =)

In the meantime, I'm having fun with this eyeliner! It is SO EASY to apply! I love the brush tip-- and it's so tapered that you can make teeny lines!

A small enough line to liner the bottom lashes-- nice! (And a double-wing-- getting risky! Haha!)

I would like to introduce you to my new favorite colored liner, Urban Decay's new 24/7 Glide-On Shadow Pencil in Delinquent, $20.00 at Ulta. 

This is a chubby pencil meant to be used as a liner or a shadow-- it REALLY has staying power!!

Compared to a typical size liner.

As a shadow~

Love the color!!!!

Yay liners! What do you think?? You should try using a bright liner this weekend! ;) 

Until next time--

What's New/Want It! Wednesday-- Let's take a trip with CARGO, Urban Decay's new liners AND Palettes!

Hello lovelies!!

Ready for some fun pictures? I love Wednesdays!! =D

I went to Ulta this past weekend and played with some new products~ unfortunately the swatches are all on one hand so I'll give you descriptions and then post the uber-swatch.

CARGO's new Safari Kit, $34 at Ulta.
CARGO created a collection of make-up inspired by the exotically beautiful hues of the African Savannah.  This kit is perfect for voyages long and short. After all, make-up is a woman's “CARGO”! This collection includes three full-size and two mini must-haves, for a complete make-up look you can take anywhere and is packaged in a vintage-looking, travel-inspired Voyages make-up bag.
This collection includes a full-size BeachBlush (Coral Beach), a full-size khaki eye lining pencil, a full size eyeshadow duo (a gold and khkai combo), a mini lip gloss (Serengeti), and a mini 3 Triple Action Mascara.

HOW ADORABLE!! I want that pouch-- oh so cute!!

Next up!

I'm not sure how long these have been out, but I noticed some jumbo 24/7 eyeliners from Urban Decay at Ulta for $20 ($2 more than the eye pencil).

Urban Decay's 24/7 Glide-On Shadow Pencil.

They come in 12 beeeautiful shades-- I played with a purple "Delinquent," a light peachy "Sin," and warm brown "Wasteland." Also- these took FOREVER to come off of my hand, hahaha!! I mean, multiple hand washings throughout the day. Even a shower! They really measure up to their name!!

Okay swatch time!

So there are the swatches for the CARGO Safari Kit and the 24/y eyeshadow pencils.
(I also played with some other things, but we'll ignore that for now..)

And speaking of Urban Decay, they have 3 new eyeshadow palettes coming out! Today they posted some pics on their Facebook page--

No word of when they release, but are any catching your eye?


Tell me what you're lusting over/looking forward to seeing!!

Until Next Time--
