L'Oreal PARIS Carbon Black Extra Intense Liquid Pencil Eyeliner

Have you ever tried a winged look with a "black" eyeliner only to find it wears to some random shade of grey? Or you've rimmed your entire eye with "black" liner that takes on a greenish hue later in the day? Unacceptable!

With L'OREAL PARIS Carbon Black Extra Intense Liquid Pencil Eyeliner/$9 you won't have to worry about that at all. This liner delivers a deep, inky black color onto your lid in the creamiest formula that won't transfer and can be smudged for a softer look. Even doubles as a base for powder shadows to create a strong smokey eye.

I like to use my angled brush to take the color directly from the tip of the liner to apply a precise line. It creates THE perfect cat eye look. You can also dot the liner along your lash line then smudge it.

What I Love: You can use it in your waterline and the pigments...a true carbon black! Glides on easily.

What I Don't Love: Sharpening it eats up alot of the product.

Check it out at your local drugstore, look out for those BOGO deals and stock up!

Drugstore Dandy -- Revlon's Mascara Madness

REVLON unleashes CustomEyes Mascara -- the first mascara that offers two looks with one brush. The unique brush has adjustable bristles to "amp up your lash length and drama" or give you "all-out length and definition." Go from subtle to sexy easily. Without dual sides. Without primer. All you do is dial up the drama with a twist at the end of the wand. The plastic applicator has longer bristles that move up or down with a simple click. Worth investigating at $7.49 at www.target.com or a drugstore near you. If you've tried it, please share...BSB readers want to know.

Thanks Kim F. for the heads up!!!
