The Love List: A new couture scent we love

Eyeliner & Eyeshadow in a pretty pink package

We adore Hot Pants Eyeliner Kit which includes the silkiest mineral eyes shadows that do double duty as liquid eyeliners. The Define-A-Line Eyeliner Base turns all powders into a smudge-proof liquid liner for precise application. The angled eyeliner brush helps you get close to the lash line to achieve a professional look. Colors include Charcoal, Chocolate, and Khaki Green. All products come in a pink feather boa drawstring bag, natch!  $49.95 at www.hotpantscosmetics.com.

Decidedly Old Fashioned, Deliciously Modern: SoyPure’s Skin Care Cleansing Bars

Mom used to use good-old fashioned glycerin soap, so when we first found SoyPure’s Skin Care Cleansing Bars, we were filled more with nostalgia than desire. One try, and we were reminded why Mom’s skin still looks so smashing 30 years later.

Crafted of 99% natural ingredients and 5% soy flour, these gentle, fragrance-free bars are paraben-free and ideal for daily use. First, the Detoxifying Bar goes to work as Hawaiian Volcano Mud Salt paired with Organic Soy Flour work together to unclog pores. Next, the Exfoliating Bar removes the top layer of dead skin cells and encourages skin regeneration. Finally the Moisturizing Bar calls upon Shea Butter and Cocoa Seed Butter to even out skin tone, soothe and lightly moisturize.

Turns out, Mom still knows best.

Bat a Lash at Rapid Lash

Sure, you can opt for never-ending lash extensions a la Eva Longoria, but we’re newly infatuated with a lash lengthening and thickening solution called Rapid Lash.

Rapid lash improves the appearance of lashes and brows by encouraging hair growth thanks to polypeptides, vitamins, proteins and moisturizing agents. This paraben-free product is oh-so-gentle, it even worked for the contact lens wearers amongst us.

And while we may not understand the science behind Rapid Lash, our newly long and lush lashes need no explanation.

Peek-a-pretty with Bra Straps

Blame it on SATC’s Carrie Bradshaw, sometime in the last five years, showing one’s bra straps became stylish. We never loved the look, always wishing we could tuck Bradshaw’s red t-strap bras back into her white racerback tank. Call us demure, we prefer a bit more subtlety when it comes to our underpinnings.

Enter Bra Straps from Margarita Couture, boasting over 90 styles of straps that allow women to accessorize their bras to match any outfit. Yup, Bra Straps are simply embellished straps that are much too chic to be kept under cover. So now, when your strap peeks out, no one has to call “Cut!”
