I’ve become a big fan of Sunsilk’s Color Boost. It’s like a mild dye you use in the shower in place of conditioner, and it gives a subtle boost to your natural or dyed hair color. You can find formulas for brunettes, blondes or redheads.

I got the original Stila Smoky Eye palette awhile back and I would not recommend it. I used it to zombify myself on Halloween, and it was rather effective. All other attempts at using this palette have resulted in shadow flakes underneath my eyes - only hot if you’re undead.
Just this morning I was trying to line my eyes with the black shadow, and ended up with a mess under my eyes. Black eyeshadow is not the kind of thing you can simply wipe away with a tissue, so I had to remove my eye makeup and start over.
Normally I like Stila so I feel a little bad trashing this product. It’s unfortunate how messy these shadows are because the packaging is so cute. To be honest I could care less about the “talking palette” feature, where you push a button and a woman’s voice tells you how to achieve the smoky eye look.
Here’s my final word on the original Stila smoky eye palette:

Though I haven’t tried it, I’m excited about this new Fiberwig mascara from Sephora. I’ve heard good things about it. Let me know if anybody’s actually tried it, and tell me what you think!

I shouldn’t tell you about this - it will lessen my chances of winning. Allure magazine is giving away tons of free stuff every hour throughout the month of August.
Things go to only the first 100 or so people that submit a form every hour - so keep it quiet!

Lately, I’ve become a big fan of Organix hair products, especially the Nourishing Coconut Milk Anti-Breakage Serum. The serum is super lightweight, super smoothing and super yummy smelling. Even when I’m in a hurry and accidentally put way more in my hair than wanted, it doesn’t make things feel greasy or icky. I recommend it!

Since it’s so hot and humid this time of year, I popped into Sephora looking for a lighter, less-heavy foundation. One of the problems I have with foundation is trying to find something pale enough to blend into my pasty skin. I’m happy to have found You Rebel Lite.

It’s basically tinted moisturizer - but it’s thick enough to give summer coverage, thin enough to not feel heavy, light enough for my pale-ness and it has added moisturizers to keep my skin smooth. Great find!

So, I saw these Nail Patches, basically stickers for your nails, at Sephora and thought they seemed a horrible idea. But the line was long, and they were there…

They’re actually not that bad. They actually went on pretty easily. I’ve worn them for a night, a shower and half a day without any smudges or peel-offs or anything odd. The only downside is that for $10, it’s probably more fun to get a real mani.

Alright, if you are like me then you suffer from allergies in the summer months. For me, allergy season came early this year. Say hello to itchy eyes, sneezing and stuffy noses. I generally take Sudafed or some other over the counter medicine to relieve my symptoms. Unfortunately I always feel stuffy.
Until my girlfriend introduced me to the neti pot. This little coffee pot contraption really helps clear out the nasal passage. It is so bizarre and hard to explain, watch her review for yourself and you’ll see why I think this is the weirdest yet coolest allergy and cold remedy around.

As I prepare to hop on a flight tomorrow, I wonder what TSA-friendly beauty products others take with them in their carry-on.
Personally I find Rosebud Salve to be indispensable. I mostly use it as a lip balm, but it can also be used to soothe dry or irritated skin - a common airline traveler’s malady. It comes in a cute tin that won’t raise a red flag with airport security and is way less than the 3oz you are allowed per liquid item. Not sure if this technically qualifies as a liquid, but better safe than sorry when it comes to dealing with the TSA!

What are your favorite under-3-oz items you can’t fly without?
