Cat Cosmetics Eye Smolder!!

A smokey eye can go oh so wrong. Smokey with the wrong shades of purple can turn into "abused wife". Smokey with too many black shades turns into "Marilyn Manson Groupie Tour Bus Goth Devotee". There is a fine line between "smokey" and "messy". The usual culprit? The eye-lid shade. That shade HAS to be the perfect compliment to your smoke or else you just look burnt out. Catherine Hickland came up with a tool to help you get your smokey eye just right. An eye tool she calls "SMOLDER" the lid base is built right in as to compliment the eyeliner.This handy tool multi-functions so you can just drop it in your purse and refresh as the night calls for it. She seems to think the perfect "smolder" is a copper brown that blends over the lid with a deep black to outline it. The kicker? Cat claims this product will not run. SO SO SO Many times I have left my bathroom mirror looking FINE to see (after the first seal break-The Ultimate First Pee at an event) black smudges down into my eye-bags. Black eye-liner eye-boogies in the corner of my eye. Not sexy. Not At All. Definitely not the look I was going for. Does this smolder teach you how to perfect the ever-lasting smokey eye? Are you sultry, mysterious, hot and eye-boogie free? Because, really, that is the question. Ladies please post if you are Jessica Simpson or Kelly Osbourne after using this product!

FACE ATELIER EYE SHIMMER POTS!!!!

Sat, 02/18/2006 - 7:03pm
  • Eyes


I know that I need to have drop-dead, fantastic eye make-up. It's true. Everyone whose anyone is sporting the heavy eye-shadow and muted lip mouth. This appears to be a trend that's not going away anytime soon. What's going to happen to us all in a decade? Is it going to be a flashback to when we all thought socks pulled over our jeans were so great? Are we going to say "Oh God. You know it's 2006 with that eye make-up"? My intuition says a big "yup". Since we are all on the rollercoaster we may as well all go for the ride! Open up those pots and lather the color on! Party like it's 2006! Here's what Face's Shimmer Pots Claim "Glisten, glitter, gleam. Sexy, sultry, sinful. &nbspColor your eye in ways you never dreamed using these ultra-fine, perfectly pigmented loose shimmers.Non-creasing and long lasting.Thirteen shades in two color collections.
PRO tips
· mix them with FACE atelier Transforming Gel to create a custom paint that sets and makes a lasting impression
· add a touch of shimmer to your favorite body moisturizer for an overall glow
· add a little shimmer to FACE atelier Clear Lip Glaze for a custom lip gloss".

Ladies, do these products make you want to hairspray your bangs to the ceiling? Please Post your findings!!

FREEZE 24/4 ANTI-WRINKLE CREAM

  • Face


You know what actresses I really love? I really love Patricia Heaton, I really love Pam Anderson and I really, really love Cybil Shephard. Why? Because they're not a bunch of B.S. Queens. I love the "here I am, this is the deal, take it or leave it" attitude from them. Patricia Heaton? Yup, it's been pulled, lifted and sucked. Pam Anderson? Yup, it's been injected, sucked and saline filled. Cybil? Watch her go on national T.V. in a scrunchie and say, "well, ofcourse I look like shit with-out my make-up". These women are awesome for not using the same ridiculous lines we all read and hear. You know the lines.."I use SPF everyday" "I watch my diet" "I don't believe in plastic surgery" "Those aren't even airbrushed". Who are the morons (Michelle Pfeiffer I'm talking to YOU)that think we believe in the "good genes" line.
If you don't have $500 every 3months to get injected and you are not Michelle Pfeiffer then what are you suppose to do? Age gracefully? That is terrifying!!
Is this the miracle your crow's feet has been looking for? Is this really the way around the knife?
Freeze 24-7 sent us this cream to use instead of needles. Not that there is 1 thing wrong with needles but at a fraction of the cost and for a lot less discomfort it is a viable alternative. Or is it? Here's what the site claims.."Hope might not exist in a jar, but miracles do. This dream cream is for real and delivers a powerful punch against wrinkles. Watch them melt away within minutes. 50-90% reduction in the visible appearance of fine lines and wrinkles within minutes of application. Freeze 24▪7™ Age Reversal Technology works to diminish the appearance of forehead creases, droopy brows, crow's feet, furrows, laugh lines, feathered lips, and more. Reduces the appearance of acne scars, stretch marks, rosacea, and enlarged pores. A safe alternative to Botox® and other synthetic products which produces results - not side effects. Gives skin a plumper, more youthful appearance.
Lasts up to 24 hours, Dermatologist Tested, Hypoallergenic, Non-Sensitizing , Allergy Tested, Clinically Tested and Non-irritating
"
Ladies did this save you a botox injection? Please let us know, and none of that funny stuff!!

KLORANE!! Wild Cornflower Sensitive Eye Make-Up Remover!!!

Wed, 01/18/2006 - 2:34pm
  • Eyes


Make-Up remover is the red-headed stepchild of make-up conversation. I know your moisturizer, your lipstick and your mascara brand. I don't know how the heck you get it off at night. I am also conflicted on why we take it off? I know every beauty magazine I have ever read said it is the 8th deadly sin to sleep with your make-up on. My question is basically, why? Why is it o.k. to wear all day but God forbid you fall asleep with it on? I did a small amount of research and this is what I found ,"Don’t go to bed with makeup on. Studies show your skin ages 13 days when you do that, says Sarah Hoover, an independent beauty consultant for Mary Kay.
O.K., fine. I'll take that at "face value". I love the nightlife. I love to boogie. I love to fall into bed with my full face plastered on. I had NO IDEA the 13 days I kept adding. Do you realized my skin is around 250 years old at this point? Oh My God!
What about Jackie Collins? I read an interveiw where said that a man should never see you without your make-up. She applies a fresh coat BEFORE bed. Can someone please call her and tell her to stop? My God!! At this rate her skin is 2,000 years old!! We need to intervene!
I know I live on the edge but had NO Clue of the true danger. Thank-you very much Klorane for sending this product. There is nothing more annoying then waking up with permanent racoon eyes! What does the site claim to do? "Klorane Wild Cornflower Eye Make-up Remover,the soothing and decongestant properties of Cornflower extract. This very gentle lotion easily removes eye make-up, yet ensures perfect tolerance".
Was Klorane tolerant and gentle to your less then die-hard make-up removing routine? Are you sold on saving those 13 days? Was it a pleasant, easy experience?
LADIES PLEASE POST YOUR FINDINGS!!!

Cat Cosmetics Meow-za

This is the description of the duo brown eye/ natural lipliner on the Catcosmetics.com website...
"On one end is my brown eye pencil (with a soft tip for that smudgy smoky look!) and on the other end, my nudie lip liner. It's two pencils in one! This dynamic duo can put the finishing touches on almost any look you're going for".

I sent out a questionnaire to 80 different women about their fave products. The "Meow-za" kept coming back as a preferred product.
