White pencil power!

Today I slept way past 2pm, central time, and woke up looking quite tired. I needed to slap on my 'face'(a.k.a make-up) with extra attention focused on my eyes, but was greeted by the biggest horror when I opened my make-up case: NO HIGHLIGHTER! I slammed down one of the doors to my case and stomped around my bedroom in disbelief that I forgot to get some yesterday while I was at the mall.

Like all ladies with the desire to always look fresh and dolled up, I had to come up with another solution and then entered my white E.L.F eyeliner. The main reason to keep a white eyeliner in your "beauty buckets and baskets" is to help you look awake by swiping on a nice line along your upper eyelids and the inside of your lower lids, but today I found another great use. I scribbled on a nice, thick and heavy line under each eyebrow and then gently blended it down toward my eyelids using nothing but my fingers. Voila, the look of a pretty highlighter. The good thing about this E.L.F white liner is that is infused with little specks of shimmer, which made it a perfect a substituite for highlighter.

Since I am so pleased with this new use, I am on the hunt to try some more white liners. One that has caught my eyes is this Benefit Mr. Frosty liner. The name and the Allure award stamped on it made me instantly toss it in my Sephora cart and purchase it. We'll see!

The next and last pencil that I threw in the cart with 'Mr. Frosty' is Big Gorgeous Eyes by Philosophy. I have tried this in the past, but unfortuantely I don't remember if I liked it or not. So, I am going to give another shot at popping my eyes of their sockets!

BEAUTY BONUS: A third use for white liner is for your lips. Instead of using a color liner, opt for the white. It prevents the running of lipsticks and glosses and can be used to outline your lips to give up the appearance of bigger and plussher lips without the blantantness of color liners!

Okay chicas, this post is going to be the last one until sometime Monday. I have a couple of freelance bids to prepare for and as the old saying goes: "Time is money!" Sooo......

Stay Stylish!
