Sonia Kashuk Bent Eyeliner Brush

Hello Divas!

I hope your Monday is awesome!

Last week I wrote a post about Lancome's Indigo Charm Gel Eyeliner. Because the eyeliner is a gel and is packaged in a small pot, I had to purchase an eyeliner brush to apply it. I knew Sonia Kashuk would probably have an eyeliner brush that was affordable and good quality. I picked up the Sonia Kashuk Bent Eyeliner Brush because the packaging stated that the bent brush "works with the natural shape of the eye" and it was only $5.99!

First I love that the eyeliner brush has a protective plastic covering for the tip. Good eye hygiene is important! The brush is bent at an angle at the tip and the tip of the brush is very fine. When I begin to apply the gel eyeliner with the brush, I was surprised to find that the brush is very firm. The combination of the brush's fine tip and firmness work together to create a perfect line when applying eye liner. Considering this was my very first time using gel eyeliner, this brush allowed me to apply the eyeliner with ease. I had no problem at all. I had total control over how and where I applied the eyeliner. Genius! If you are on a budget, this is a perfect eyeliner brush to have in your beauty arsenal.

You can purchase this brush at any Target.

Toodles!

LancĂ´me Declaring Indigo Collection, Indigo Charm Ink Artliner

Hello Divas!

I hope your world is beautiful!

I am so excited! Lancome's new fall collection, Declaring Indigo, is now available online at Lancome-usa.com. Remember the post I wrote about this collection and gushed over that beautiful electric blue nail polish?

Well I was given the opportunity to try the Indigo Charm Ink Artliner from the collection. This is a gel eyeliner and normally I do not wear eyeliner. However, due to the GORGEOUS Indigo blue color, I had to try it!

The gel eyeliner is packaged in a neat little pot, so I had to purchase an eyeliner brush to apply it. I purchased a superb Sonia Kashuk eyeliner brush (a review coming soon) and began to play!

First the color is insane! It is a deep electric blue and will look great on ANY skintone. The gel eyeliner glides on like a dream and you can easily smudge it out for a smokey look or keep it precise for a more defined look. Because I love the Indigo blue color so much, I chose to smudge it out so I could get more of the color on my lids. Here is the result:

Simply Beautiful! Love Love Love! This color is going to be the "IT" color for fall. So Divas make sure you grab products from this collection now before it sells out! I have decided that this is my new "go to" eye color, so I am purchasing another pot or two before it is gone! This eyeliner retails for $23.50 and you can purchase it online here.

Toodles!
