These amazing eye shadows by beingTrue cosmetics are triple-milled, and come in 23 modern shades. The textures come in matte, natural and shimmer.

I normally don’t wear eye shadow but I fell in love with African Violet and Dahlia.  Two gorgeous shades of purple, just in time for fall.

These eye shadows are created with oil-free binders that help prevent shadow creasing – for long-lasting eye color that last’s all day.

I love having gorgeous, modern eyes with ultra color and dimension, don’t you?  These great eye shadow pans are sold individually without a compact.

ColorStay Ultimate Liquid Lipstick by Revlon

Not since Revlon’s hair mask has there been a beauty product by them that I love. My friend Dawn recently wrote a piece on Revlon’s amazing Liquid Lipstick and I had to try it for myself.
 
I’m in love! I tested Platinum Petal, it’s one of the most gorgeous shades of pink I’ve seen in a long time.  Most important is that the color stayed on all day, until I took it off.  My lips stayed hydrated and kissable all afternoon.
  
The texture created for a smooth application, and the built-in ColorStay technology kept my lips conditioned all day with gorgeous beautiful color.  I’m going back for the rest of colors – this is an addiction!
  
Plus the price point makes this an amazing beauty bargain!

Glamorous & Natural Lashes w/ Talika

Courtesy of Talika
I’ve always been fascinated by false eyelashes, but I could never stand wearing them for long periods of time.
 
I didn’t believe my lashes could get  more beautiful, having been testing lash enhancers, heated eyelash curlers for months – well now there is help for those of us who don’t believe in eyelash enhancers or heated eyelash curlers.
 
One of my favorite brands created an amazing Lash Extender, the rayon fibers adhered to my lashes between two coats of my favorite mascara.  My lashes were stunning, natural with a glamorous effect. 
 
Talika is one of the best companies you can trust your lashes too!  The undetectable results will leave you breathless, you achieve instant, long-lasting results that last all day.
 
I love having glamorous, lush and natural looking lashes, and just in time for New Year’s Eve!

DareDevil Red by Topshop Cosmetics

Courtesy of TopShop Cosmetics
I’m obsessed with Red Lipstick, and have always admired Vivien Leigh, Dolores del Rio, Ginger Rogers and Betty Davis.
I associated gorgeous Red Lips with strong independent women, who knew what they wanted and went out after it.
I know that Red Lipstick can be intimidating, but it doesn’t have to be, it’s all in the application and trying on as many reds as possible.
Recently TopShop came out with a makeup line that includes gorgeous red lipsticks.  I’ve worn DareDevil Red for the past few days and received many compliments.
Not only are my lips pretty, but they stayed hydrated and nourished throughout the day.
A great way to make a fashion statement this fall without breaking the bank.

Anita: What Beauty Haul are you giving away this year?

 Jacqueline:  Gifts I am giving this year…. Well since my friends have all  been really nice this year. Here are the three items that I plan to spoil my friends with this year!

1) My favorite gift I am giving this yearThe Heavenly Luxe Brush by IT Cosmetics! Sold exclusive @ qvc.vom the New Heavenly Luxe Brush is an  ultra-luxurious, ultra-plush allover powder brush for flawless application. This high-quality synthetic brush is ultra-luxurious in feel. Plus its soft-touch rubberized jumbo handle makes application easy and enjoyable. The ultra-high brush hair count makes for the most effective distribution of powder. It’s the softest make-up brush I have ever laid my hands on.

2)IT Cosmetics Luxe High Performance eye shadow Palette with Hydrating Age reverse and prevent complex is infused with Hydrolyzed Collagen, Vitamins A,C, & E. Plus IT contains  powerful anti-oxidants such as Green Tea Extract and ACAI! These revolutionary skin loving eye shadows can be used wet or dry, as eye shadows or eyeliners! And… although the colors are waterproof,  they still come off easily with makeup remove and   do not crease, smudge, or smear throughout day. I  love  this palette because I can do a natural look for daytime and a dramatic smoky eye look for evening. My friends have been begging for it!

3) I am giving the gift that gives back!  The Brow Power™ Eyebrow Pencil from IT Cosmetics.   This is an innovative product that actually targets brow hair follicle health and growth! And since IT Cosmetics donates 1 pencil to the Look Good, Feel Better Program… I can feel good that I am actually giving the gift of brow to someone I’ve never met!
