Shop Pink: 2010 Warriors in Pink collection

As you all know, October is Breast  Cancer Awareness month, which is a month dedicated to spreading the word on prevention, treatment, and support for breast cancer.

One of the things in support of breast cancer is an abundance of pink products for sale where some, if not all, of the proceeds from sales benefit numerous breast cancer organizations.

One of the lines that I look forward to every October is seeing the new items that Ford’s Warriors in Pink offers, where the net proceeds go to Susan G. Komen.

This year’s collection features new tee designs, decals, and the newest scarf design. Also, this year, they’ve introduced versatile race bandanas and a travelling tote that I want so bad!

To continue to help the fight for breast cancer, please check out and checkout items from Warriors in Pink.

Bobbi Brown: New Book, Site, and Palette!

The last thing I need is another beauty book to buy, site to visit daily, and a palette filled with items that are workable for everyday looks. However, when Bobbi Brown’s name is attached, how can you or I not want all three of these items in our life.

Keep reading to see more about the latest addictive additions from Bobbi Brown.

Renowned makeup artist Bobbi Brown is helping young women become their most amazing selves with her fresh, new beauty bible Beauty Rules. In Beauty Rules, Bobbi builds beauty from the inside out with tips on everything from exercise and eating right to the importance of being a great friend.  And, of course, there’s plenty about getting great makeup.

“We live in a digital age now where girls have access to so much information; the messages are mixed and confusing for young girls. I wrote Beauty Rules because I wanted to give each of these girls the tools and knowledge they need to be their most confident selves. The book also contains step by step beauty tips, and information about healthy living, as beauty is not only what you look like on the outside, it’s what you put inside your body as well.” – Bobbi Brown

In celebration of her new book, Bobbi designed a pretty palette of wearable eye, lip and cheek colors and launched a new site, www.BeautyRules.com. The sites features behind the scenes photos and video footage, before and after images, and a quiz that allows users to create their own set of beauty rules, while accurately match themselves to one of the girls in the book. Plus, a great mother-daughter makeover sweeps.

“What I’ve discovered is that many girls are introduced to makeup by their mothers who are bringing them to the makeup counters. I hope that Beauty Rules can help to start the dialogue between mothers and daughters about beauty, nutrition, and overall wellness and self-confidence. It’s a reference guide for mothers just as much as it is for their daughters.” -Bobbi Brown

The limited edition palette features edgy but totally wearable eye, lip and cheek colors that can work any age and occasion.

The palette and book are both currently available for sale on www.BobbiBrownCosmetics.com and visit www.BeautyRules.com to see more info from the book.

P.S. I wish I knew that you get free shipping on every order when you order from BobbiBrownCosmetics.com! I would have been doing that instead of fighting the fiesty and fabulous dames at my local Bobbi Brown counter.

Brushing Up With… Brush Cleaners!

She’s BBAAACCKK! Yes, in-house beauty junkie, Beautylishus is back with two reviews on two different brush cleaners; Essence of Beauty Brush Cleaner and ELF Brush Cleaner. Keep reading to see her opinions!

Essence of Beauty Brush Cleanser: I’m a Essence of Beauty product fan so when I saw their brush cleaner on the wall I just had to try it! However, I was a tad bit apprehensive because the price was $10.00 for a drugstore brand, but I just sucked up my frugality and went ahead and bought it. When it was time to actually test the product I had hopes that it would be a good quick clean process but I was mistaken. The cleaner did clean the brush, but it wasn’t as fast drying as I would have hoped. The brush smell isn’t very pretty. Somewhat on the strong side. Think of a mixture between a flowery perfume and bleach and that’s what the smell is similar too. The thing that I really did like about this product is how there was no trace of makeup left in the brush. It completely clean and cleared out my eyeshadow brush fully pigmented with mac’s chrome yellow shadow! This product is a pretty okay product to just have, but if I were to skip it during checkout, I most definitely would.

ELF Brush Cleaner: When I received this product in the mail, I didn’t think too much of it because its made by the budget $1 cosmetic company ELF. after realizing that it was apart of their “pro” line, I became reeeeeeally excited  because their black label “pro” items have yet to fail me. This cleanser is a must have because it not only smells good but by the time you are finished cleaning (by brushing the bristles back and forth across a dry fabric) it dry and ready to be used. It also left no trace of color. It’s quick drying,good smelling inexpensive product! This officially stays in my kit. You should have it in your stash also!
