Beauty Beat

An old roomate of mine once told me I was a "beauty product whore". Of all things to be accused, I guess I'll take it. But wait, now that I think about this... if whore is the case wouldn't the products pay me to use them? For the sake of being grammatically correct, I'd say I'm a beauty product junkie. But whatever, back to the point! So as a self-proclaimed expert, I've found not one but two new products that are too fabulous not to share:

Skintimate Moisturing Cream Shave
Honestly what first attracted me to this little wonder was its bargain price- only $3! At half what other shaving creams cost, this one still blows the others out of the water (or shower). Just put dollup in your hand, rub thin layer down your gams, shave and walla- the smoothest, silkiest legs you've ever witnessed. Now why wouldn't you want try it? Well maybe if you are trying to discourage snuggling on your side of the bed or a granola way to keep your knee socks up, but if you want to channel your inner Venus this summer like moi, try this stuff!


Trish McEvoy's Lash Curling Mascara
You may be thinking I'm now going to write about how this is the most amazing for curling your lashes. Well wrong. Not that it doesn't curl them just so, but what makes this mascara so blog-worthy is how it is removed. As a contact wearer with extremely sensitve eyes, I'm always searching for a formula that doesn't flake or run as the day goes on. My prayers were answered when an angel at Neiman's introduced me to this. Trish McEvoy has miraculously created a mascara that glides on with a hint a shine and stays put all day (and night). Then when it's time to wash it off (only water is required) it gently pulls off in tube-like remnants (so cool!) to leave you with clean, pure lashes. It's a mere make-up phenomenon.

So I can now say I've given up my junkie ways at least when it comes to shave creams and mascaras- I'm devoted to these for life!
