Liquid liners create the most amazing, precise line. And yet, after all of these years of sampling and writing about them, liquid liner has never made it into my permanent daily routine.
That’s why the latest from the Smashbox Masquerade collection is so incredible! No need to worry about buyers remorse… if you don’t use this product as a liquid liner, it also doubles and the coolest top coat for mascara! The ridged tip of the applicator glides smoothly over the top of lashes, and deposits a quick-drying, metallic flash of color that makes hum-drum black mascara so much more interesting!
Retail price is $19. Colors available are teal (top) and bronze (bottom).

Among the many Fall 2010 makeup collections I am dying to get my mitts on is the latest from Smashbox! Allow me to introduce the Masquerade collection! Masquerade launches in August of 2010, and can be purchased at Sephora.com
, Smashbox.com or Nordstrom.com
. I’m dying over the bold shades in the eye shadow palette, punctuated by pale shades of ivory, pink and white. Based on my positive experience with Fusion Soft Lights, I’m guessing the Baked Fusion Soft Lights Palette in Illusion will be a winner, as well. What’s on your list?
EYE SHADOW PALETTE in MASQUERADE ($35)
(matte soft peach, shimmering black plum, matte taupe, metallic khaki, shimmering gold, bronze, metallic cabernet, shimmering navy, matte bone)
From subtle to ultra dramatic, the shades in this enticing palette disguise your eyes with a veil of magnetic color. Organized in complementary trios, the shades create coordinated looks for maximum intrigue.
BAKED FUSION SOFT LIGHTS PALETTE in ILLUSION ($32)
(champagne, soft gold, rosegold)
Create the illusion of a lit-from-within glow with this palette of shimmering shades, designed to illuminate cheeks, nose, forehead and décolleté. For the perfect cheek, pair with CREAMY CHEEK COLOR & BRUSH.
CREAMY CHEEK COLOR & BRUSH in INTRIGUE ($29)
(warm pink)
Formulated with antioxidant Vitamin E, this luxurious creamy cheek color will give cheeks a “just blushed” look—the perfect innocent disguise. Glide the creamy formula over the apples of cheeks, then blend with the brush for a flawless pop of color.
LIQUID LINER & LASH OVERLAY in TEAL & BRONZE ($19)
Cloak eyes in an air of mystery with this innovative two-in-one formula for lash line and lashes. Just line the eyes and then sweep the specially designed rod over a coat of mascara to “tip” the ends of lashes for a subtle yet intriguing look.
LIP ENHANCING GLOSS in REVEAL and DISGUISE ($19)
(golden nude, golden pink)
What’s behind that provocative pout? This ultra-moisturizing formula saturates lips with alluring color and shine. Vitamin E provides antioxidant protection and moisturization, while Sunflower seed oil nourishes lips.
O-GLOSS NOIR ($22) EXCLUSIVE TO SEPHORA
This disguise transforms before your very eyes—the sultry lip formula glides on black, then evolves into a custom bold berry hue tailored to your specific skin tone. Formulated with Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract and Goji Berry Extract to boost microcirculation as well as moisturizing Avocado Oil antioxidant Vitamin C and Pomegranate Seed Oil, O-Gloss Noir interacts with your personal skin chemistry to create a shade that’s unique to you.
In the world of bronzer, there are countless different shades. Some prefer a sunkissed gold, and others a more reddish hue. Those in search of a pure deep brown are looking for Smashbox Halo Hydrating Perfecting Bronzer!
Part of the Smashbox Naked Beauty Summer Collection, this bronzer is formulated to actually reduce signs of aging while delivering a beautiful bronze glow! Where product is concerned, I have to specifically call out the genius packaging. The bronzer itself is actually in a cake form. The metal sifter rests on top of the bronzer. When turned, the sifter scrapes off some of the bronzer, delivering it in loose-powder format for application. Less wasted product, and less mess!
Halo Hydrating Perfecting Bronzer is oil-free, talc-free and paraben-free. A perfect choice for sensitive or breakout-prone skin!
Retail price is $39.
