Despite the fact that my makeup kit could have its own zip code, I’m still always on the look out for fab new products. And if that fab new product can help better the primping process for my clients, then it’s heaven-sent.
A number of my clients are fierce mommies who juggle raising children with climbing that corporate ladder and/or holding things down in their homes. Imagine the utter sighs of relief I got when I showed them how to bring sexy back to their faces with luxurious and easy-to-use dual-edged makeup pencils from the Color by Cynde Watson line ($15-$29.95 at hsn.com). Ms. Watson (shown in the pic above), a hard working mom and makeup artist, developed this line after realizing how much easier it would be to apply her favorite cosmetics in pencil form.
You know you seriously need this line if right now you’re reading this post with your toddler in one arm, the keyboard in the other, and your feet are scooping up a spilled bowl of Cheerios that your bundle of joy just dropped all over your rug! Not only does the makeup come in an easy-to-apply pencil form, but the makeup itself is beautifully pigmented, has a texture that’s the perfect cross between powder and creme formulas, and the color selection makes this line wearable on virtually all skin tones. AND–it’s completely portable; no need to be held back by airport security while you’re on your way to a fabulous beach vacation.
I’m in love with the Stain & Tint Blush Pencil and the Bronze & Glow Bronzer/Highlighter because they give me that pretty Hollywood glow that Kerry Washington and Gabrielle Union seem to have stock in.
