Gone in an Instant: Shiseido The Skincare Instant Eye and Lip Makeup Remover

By TheGlamtastic · November 30, 2010 · 0 Comments ·

When was the last time you woke up with mascara smeared below you eyes and faded berry lipstick on your lips. You touch your eye lashes and your once soft and sleek mascara now feels crunchy like a bag full of Baked Lays.

 

It's common knowledge that one of the best ways to keep your skin looking young and healthy is to wash your face, removing all makeup before your head hits the pillow. Some makeup removers partially do the job, removing some but not all makeup, dirt and residue. Some leave your face feeling sticky, oily or dirty.

 

Then I fell for Shisedo's Instant Eye and Lip Makeup Remover. This dual-action, super soft makeup remover helps me remove all of my makeup without stripping my skin of moisture or leaving my face feeling like an oil slick. This moisturizing, multitasking makeup remover is on a my A-list this holiday season. This sensatve makeup remover is a must, especially during the holiday season!

 

Waking up with racoon eyes...never again!

Please note: I did not receive a press sample.
Working in the beauty business, I have the opportunity to meet  with a ton of fabulous celebrity hair stylists, makeup artists, manicurists, etc. Whether it's behind-the-scenes at New York Fashion Week or at a blogger Q&A session, I absolutely love hearing it from the experts.

All beauty experts have their secrets  to create an A-list celebrity's luscious locks, voluptuous lips and flawless nails. I love having access to some of the industry's trendsetting beauty insiders and now, you can too!

Eco-chic, A-list makeup artist Tina Turnbow and Tarte have partnered to create the new Flower Child Natural Eyeshadow Palette. This adorable palette comes with 10 eco-friendly gorgeous shadow shades, the Brush with Greatness double-ended eyeshadow brush and the double-ended eye liner that will allow you to create a laundry list of fabulous eye looks.

In addition, Tarte has also included a sample of their clinically proven Lifted Natural Eye Primer with Firmitol, to help keep the sexy cat eyes or smoky eye that much longer, as it works to decrease the look of fine lines and wrinkles. It's never to early to start fighting the aging process!

The inspiration for this darling palette? This eyeshadow kit was inspired by a combination of rich earthy hues, as well as Spring runway and red carpet trends. The palette is blossoming with buds of color and offers a wide variety of tones that can help you seamlessly transition your look from the boardroom to the bar. Love that!

All eyeshadows are also free of parabens, sulfates, synthetic fragrances or dyes...the list goes on! None of us need additional chemicals in our lives!
