Wearing brightly colored mascara is usually a lot of look, but it doesn't have to be. The newest varieties have just a hint of tint, adding depth and dimension without overpowering your lashes with color. They work by adding colored pigments to a dark base, which can play up your eye color without making you look like an extra in The Warriors.

Beginning in January, newlywed Ellen DeGeneres will appear in CoverGirl ads. In an official statement released today, a company spokesperson said, "Her beauty and down-to-earth personality fit perfectly with what CoverGirl represents."

Over the past year, I've talked in great detail about many different types of volumizing, lengthening, curling, separating, and glossing mascaras. There's even a new one from Besame that smells just like gingerbread.

Whew! Fashion Week has just started, and I've already seen some gorgeous hair and makeup backstage at Alice Ritter. But more on that later. 
I've been interested in trying Cover Girl's TruBlend line for some time now. Mostly because I love their spokesmodel Drew Barrymore, though I think that the highly airbrushed ads are a disservice to her natural beauty. This mineral-based liquid makeup employs the Cover Girl-patented colorsphere technology, which claims to help the foundation blend smoothly and invisibly into your skin, for a "naturally flawless" look. 
Red lips are having a moment right now, but a classic red lip never really goes out of style. I used to be intimidated by wearing them, but now they're in regular rotation—and they're especially festive for this time of year.

One of my biggest pet peeves are pencil eyeliners that don't have with those firm little sponges at one end. It's a real shame that so many brands don't bother adding them to their packaging. I find myself carrying around an old liner (I know, yuck) that is almost gone, but has a tip topped with a sponge.
