Quick Mention: L'OREAL Infallible Never Fail Eyeliner

I just got L'oreal's Infallible Never Fail Eyeliner. I love it. I have been on a search lately for a really good eyeliner. Other that my regular fav's MAC's Smolder & Feline and also Milani's Liquif'eye. Ok, back to L'oreal. They promise that this mechanical pencil will last 16 hours, that it is smudge proof and two times the intensity of your average eyeliner. Well, I wore it for 9 hours and it didn't budge.. I don't know if the occasion will come where I'll need it for 16 hours but it's nice to know that it may stand the test! As far as it being two times the intensity of you average liner... well I'll say this: it's exceptionally good for a drugstore brand. It's no Smolder.. but then, what is?  I have it in Carbon Black and it's very black which I love, that is a must for me. And it features something I've never seen on one of these mechanical pencils.. it has a built in sharpener on the top paired with a smudger (you better use the smudger quick, remember it's smudge proof!) And! it's pretty cool to have the sharpener. So for the record.. I really like it, perhaps better than Maybelline's Master Drama pencil I reviewed a while back. It lines both the top & bottom lash perfectly. I got it from Ulta for $8.99 
Boy do I love having an Ulta here in NYC now! ;)

L'OREAL Studio Secrets Anti-Dull Skin Primer

I Love this product! It's the Loreal Studio Secrets #2 Anti-Dull Skin Primer which also acts as a corrector. This particular number in the series (#2) is made to compliment deep skin tones. Orangy, peachy tones are always great on people of  color. You get a lot of product considering that you only have to use an extremely small amout per application. The pump dispenses quite a bit of product, don't let it scare you.. a lot will come out. Just take it and blend it in very well until there's an even layer on your skin. It will be very ashy in appearance, but that is ok. On top of the (light) layer you've created then apply your concealer and/or foundation and you will see the benefits it's afforded you. It creates a nice canvas for your foundation and a lovely brigtening quality. Brightening not lightening. I really like this product, and the good thing is it will last forever, the .68 Fl. Oz. you get is ample. Now that I've tried this I want to also try the face primer in this series. I've seen lots of glowing reviews on it. That is next! I purchased it at Target for $13.99
