Borghese Eclissare Color Eclipse

[button link=”https://www.ragingrouge.com/about-raging-rouge/raging-rouge-llc-disclosures” target=”_blank” rel=”nofollow” color=”RR” shape=”rounded” size=”small” align=”right”]Press Sample[/button]There’s no brand with a more fairytale beginning than Borghese. Founded by a stylish Italian Princess, this brand has been around for around 60 years! The brand recently launched some modern paletettes with a packaging facelift, and let me tell you it’s time to revisit this regal, royal brand. I was simply wowed by the Eclissare shadow palettes Borghese passed along for me to test. The Borghese formula feels like silk during application, and applies a high-pigment even color. The packaging is a classic, simple black quilted design that’s easy on the eyes.

Retail price is $55. Click HERE to shop Borghese.com. Click through the jump and keep scrolling for swatches of the entire Borghese Eclissare Color Eclipse shadow palette. [Read more…] about Borghese Eclissare Color Eclipse

Eddie Funkhouser Lips!

[button link=”https://www.ragingrouge.com/about-raging-rouge/raging-rouge-llc-disclosures” target=”_blank” rel=”nofollow” color=”RR” shape=”rounded” size=”small” align=”right”]Press Sample[/button]Nothing jazzes this jaded makeup lover more than getting my hands on a brand I’ve never used, especially when even my most critical friends have been gushing over it. Eddie Funkhouser decided to pass along some of his incredible lip products for the entire Makeup Wars team to test drive, and I was so excited!

Before I give you a closer look, I want to talk pricing. I recently explained to my regular readers that I do my best to sample product without reading any promotional materials or looking at pricing. My goal is to provide as unbiased a review as possible. This former buyer also loves to guess what the retail is, based on the performance and appearance of the product. I am rarely surprised, but Eddie Funkhouser lip color performed like prestige product, at a much lower price point than expected!
