Play with Coloured Lashes with these new Mascaras

Play with Coloured Lashes with these new Mascaras

Inglot have just launched five of the most amaze(eye)balls super pigmented, coloured mascaras… Electric Blue, Emerald Green, Purple, Navy Blue and Brown! Yum! Inglot Colour Play Mascara goes on beautifully and coats each lash with rich, vibrant colour. Today Im wearing the blue, but the green is my favourite!  The formula of this mascara lasts all day long, doesn’t smudge or clump and it’s water resistant! I used the mascara over my normal lashes and the colour came out nice and bright! However, for an even more eye-popping effect, Inglot suggests using a white eyelash primer before applying your Colour Play Mascara! I’m going to try that next! PS! If you’ve got sensative eyes, Inlgot Colour Play mascara should be safe for you to use. It’s dermatologically tested and safe for contact lenses. Get them! Inglot Colour Play Mascara’s retail at R149 each and they have a special offer running at the moment, where you can buy two for R250!

Three New Eye Products from Empro

Three New Eye Products from Empro

There’s nothing quite like unwrapping a new range of makeup goodies! I recently got to test drive three new products from Empro, a range that is distributed by Placelol and available at Dream-nails salons nationwide. It’s made by Prof. Coco Alex and has received a number of awards, including the Women’s Weekly Best Beauty Award in 2009 and 2010. Triangular Eyebrow Pencil My fave product of the lot and one that’s currently sitting in my personal makeup kit, is Empro Triangular Brow Pencil. I would have to say that it is probably one of the best eyebrow pencils I’ve used. On the one side it has a brush that helps you get your brows in place before you start shaping them. You can also use the brush to finish off your brows and even out the colour when you’re done. Normally eyebrow pencils are plain old pencils, and the tip isn’t always a great way to shape your brows, especially if you’re fairly new to shaping your brows. This one is triangular which makes it easy to apply thicker and thinner lines where needed. Another great thing about this pencil is that there is no sharpening (yay) and the crayon stays in shape. The colour comes out just right to…

Rock Royalty

Loving this shade of Shellac I’m currently wearing. It’s from their new winter collection, a gorgeous deep purple shade called Rock Royalty… I’m totally addicted to Shellac! I have been wearing it on my nails almost non-stop since I had my first Shellac application in January.

Beauty Scoop: Pump up the volume with MAC Zoom Lash

Beauty Scoop: Pump up the volume with MAC Zoom Lash

This week I got to try out Zoom Lash mascara by MAC.  It’s a mascara that adds loads of volume and thickens your lashes, giving you dramatic, lashes that are literally, blacker than black! What I like about this mascara is that it really does add loads of volume.  Volume (and length) is something my lashes are lacking.  Even better, is you only really need one coat and you’re done. But because Im all for va-va-voom lashes, I applied two, sometimes three coats to really intensify my lashes. Taking it off is another story, but it’s all worth it because your lashes stay pumped-up for pretty much as long as you’re wearing this mascara.  Invest in a good eye makeup remover and you’ll have no problem removing this mascara, but simple cleanser won’t do the trick. I would also suggest you let the top lashes dry before you apply a coat to your lower lashes to avoid smudging. Suggested Retail price is R110 Lookout for ZOOM FAST BLACK LASH DEEPEST LASH Mascara available in October 2009.

Glam Rock beauty

Glam Rock beauty

Glam rock is a fun, sexy way to wear your makeup. Glam up the eyes and leave the lips nude for the day and then transform into a sexy siren by adding a pop of bright colour to your lips.  Lady Gaga has nailed glam-rock to perfection, with nude lips and diva eyes, but Christina Aguilera rocks it with clean, porcelin skin, dramatic eyes and intense lips. It’s easy to create the glam rock look when you have the right products.  I’ve been playing with a few brands this past week, testing them out, trying on new looks and really having fun with the whole glam-rock look, to bring you this week’s beauty feature… Rimmel London Glam Eyes Professional Liquid Liner in Aqua Glow is great for applying precision liner to your lids and the colour is simply stunning.  I really like doing the whole “carbon copy” eye with a black gel liner (see 7) and then adding a stoke of colour with this product to the outer corners.  The easy to use applicator makes it simple to use.  I also like applying just a bit of this color to the ends of my lashes lashes after applying mascara and…
