Not just a portion of proceeds, or a matching product – every single dollar of profit that our customers generate goes to lift women from poverty.

I  had the chance to sample several different products and was happy with everything I tried.  One of my favorites was the Zum  Wash in Grapefruit and the Lavendar Liquid Laundry soap left our clothes smelling amazing!

My mailman is my new best friend he just brought me two of the brand spanking new Bare Escentuals eyeshadows. I have been so excited since I heard about these and let me tell you they live up to my expectations. All the greatness of the original but now in a solid for beauty addicts like myself who can’t seem to master loose powder without fallout.

The pigment is amazing and the shadow just glides on  there is a very smoothing element to the shadow that feels great. I love the color combos and can’t wait to try more. Check for these to be available in store and online in October the 2.0 shadow will retail for $20 and the 4.0 shadow will be $40.

My favorite of the two pallets has to be The Enlightenment. They look a little like your average old  colors  but once on your eyes bazinga gorgeous rust and copper sparkles emerge that blend with the luminescent sand.

I love the look of liquid eyeliners but try as I might I an never get the line right and  get frustrated and go back to my pencil. Borghese was kind enough to let me try their Linea Precisa Liquid Eyeliner and I am thrilled that even I can use it like a pro!

For the first time I was able to draw two perfect lines! The felt tip applicator is stiffer than most pens I have tried and was the trick in drawing a straight line. I found the pen very easy to work with and I could manipulate it to make a thin or thicker line. If you have had trouble mastering liquid eyeliner you owe it to yourself to give Borghese Linea Precisa a try.
