Too Faced Lash Light Mascara...

Sephora has a new mascara by Too Faced called LashLight Mascara $25 (only at Sephora). The coolest thing about it is the wand lights up!

"This jet-black mascara features a light reflecting formula and an LED wand that shines over lashes for the most precise application."

Here is what Sephora's website has to say about it...


"What it is:
A patented mascara formula containing millions of microscopic mirrors that bounce light off lashes for a super glossy, jet black finish.


What it does:
LASHLIGHT is formulated to thicken, lengthen, and condition while coating lashes with the glossiest of jet black finishes to make eyes look brighter, whiter, and camera ready. A combination of Panthenol and Vitamin C and E keep lashes healthy and Red Algae increases Keratin resistance for maximum lash flexibility. The patented formula contains millions of microscopic mirrors that bounce light off lashes for the deepest, jet black finish that lasts all day.


What else you need to know:
The slightly tapered brush-tip gives you access to even the tiniest lashes, while perfectly spaced bristles give length and separation without tangles and clumps. Also, the exclusive light-up LED wand spotlights every lash for the perfect mascara application every time and the close up mirror on the side of the component is perfect for on the go application. "

 Sounds Fabulous!! I'm going to have to try this! Anyone already tried it?

Vanish Puffy Morning Eyes...

" For a swift- and inexpensive- solution, N.Y.C. dermatologist Francesca Fusco suggests 2nd Skin Moist Burn pads, which contain a unique cooling gel made up of 97 percent water. Chill them in your fridge and apply to under-eye area for 5-10 minutes in the morning- the coolness of the pads constricts blood vessels and reduces swelling, explains Fusco. Plus, the individual packets are great for traveling."

Wow who would have guessed that burn pads would do the trick!

Lash Longer Fuller Lusher by HydroPeptide

I recently had an email sent to me from a fellow tweeter(is that what you call it?...you know another twitter person...I'm still new to the twitter scene.) Anyways... he wrote me about a great new lash and eyebrow product from HydroPeptide called HydroPeptide Lash Longer Fuller Lusher. It sounds FABULOUS! Here is what Lash Longer Fuller Lusher is all about...

"It is the first product without prostaglandin to pioneer the power of plant stem cell and growth factor technology to nourishes and revive lashes and brows while you sleep.

In a 56 day 34 woman independent consumer evaluation, 8 out of 10 users of HydroPeptide Lash felt their eyelashes looked fuller in just 4 weeks. 92 percent of women said their eyebrows appeared thicker and lusher, and 96 percent said their brows appeared fuller. Just as impressive, 94 percent of participants said their eyelashes appeared to increase in length and 96 percent said their lashes appeared more thick, lush, and full. Visual analog scores (VAS) demonstrated statistically significant increases after 4 weeks (46.05% and 45.68%), 6 weeks (93.42% and 90.12%) and 8 weeks (140.79% and 143.20%) in perceived eyelash/eyebrow thickness."

• HydroPeptide Lash (5ml) is a 24 week supply (without the hassle of applicators) with significant results occurring within 4-6 weeks
• HydroPeptide Lash is drug free and has no risk of side effects, such as itching (the most common side effect from other similar lash enhancing products)
• Reconstructive Peptides strengthen & condition the hair follicle, to prevent lash breakage which allows them to reach their full potential.
  

Lashes will look fuller and longer than ever!! Check out thier website for more info!

Latisse Eyelash treatment...

I keep hearing all this buzz about the new eyelash treatments that claim to help the growth of your eyes lashes...no extensions necessary! They are quite pricey which does make me a bit hesitant to try it but I guess it really could be worth it in the long run. Of course celebs are already all over this new product especially Lattise.

" Jenny McCarthy is a fan of Lattise, the new FDA approved eyelash treatment which makes your lashes 25% longer, 106% fuller and 18% darker in 16 weeks. The treatment costs about $120 for a 30 day supply, but in the end it can save you on expensive mascaras! Lattise is only available through a prescription and it’s even endorsed by Celebrity eyebrow expert, Anastasia."

Hassle Free Make up Remover...

Removing eye make-up can be a real PAIN...especially with the oily make-up removers that run into your eyes! Well my best friend actually uses baby shampoo to remove all of her make-up. Her step mom was constantly getting eye infections from the removers she was using so her doctor told her to start using baby shampoo b/c it will easily remove your make-up, isn't oily and is very gentle on your eyes and skin! So she relayed the info to my best -friend who relayed the info to me :) I have used it many times before and it works great! Plus it's cheap!
