There's been quite a lot of furore over the new Givenchy Phenomen'eyes mascara we mentioned here.People were unsure whether the strangely spherical wand would actually give good coverage, and if applying it at a vertical angle would mean you poked yourself in the eyes.

The Benefit brand sorta slipped under my radar for a couple years, but I used to be a big fan.
Back when I worked in downtown SF and every other person worked for a dot com (*rolls eyes*), I remember wearing Benetint and Dr. Feelgood. I’m not sure why I stopped following the line. I guess it fell into the same black hole that swallowed my Hello Kitty lunch box and black jelly bracelets.

Bourjois have been pulling out all the stops lately, first with their new Stretch eyeshadows, and now with these Shimering Shine liquid eyeshadows. The formula contains 55% water to help it glide across the skin, and it includes pearlised pigments to create a really shimmery look.

When MAC's eyeshadow quad from the Cult of the Cherry range landed on my desk, I couldn't help but getting a bit giggly. The colours were so gorgeous, the pigments so fine, and it was just such a wearable palette.

I normally opt for volumizing mascaras with uber thick brushes and wide wands. This has none of those factors, but I must admit to being pleasantly surprised with the quality of the mascara. I tried Collection 2000's new Magi-Length mascara (available October) in Ultra Black . It will also be available in black shimmer as well.

It’s official: folks are gettin’ CRAZY with mascara brushes! Some of the biggest names in the biz, like Lancome, Cover Girl and MAC, are coming out with unusual mascara brushes, some that vibrate, and others shaped like miniature plastic combs or corkscrews.

Green eyes are tricky to achieve. I've mentioned before about how it's important to make sure you have the right shades so you don't appear washed out; and taking in mind the fact that I'm a pale skinned blonde I chose to use a combination of dark green and gold. It's great to do a dramatic eye, but making it look wearable is another matter.

I remember how hush hush the launch of Guyliner was. At a press event six MONTHS ago I was sworn to secrecy and if memory serves there may have even been an NDA to sign as well ( a document that means if I write about something before they say so I can be sued and sent to hell).

Green eyes are tricky to pull off at the best of times. Too little and you'll have a barely there wash of shadow which is pointless, too much and you'll look like an extra from Robin Hood.

There are so many products out there that have a cult following, yet I'm always wary about paying £20 for something that might turn out to be pants. Well Sephora have brought together a kit that comprises of seven hot mascara's so you can try each one.

Want to talk about stupid inventions? Then let’s talk about EYE JEWELRY!
Yes that’s right folks, you read right, jewelry for your EYES~!!! Can we say super yuck! I find it hard enough to touch the gelantinous part of my eye when I use to wear contacts, more so to have some stupid string with bedazzles hanging from my EYE!!

Have you heard about Lancome’s Oscillation? This is a brand spanking new product from Lancome, and is a mascara with a vibrating brush. If you haven’t yet tried a brush like this – in general, I think they are amazing. Lancome makes great mascara, so I know this one will be good too. Here is what Lancome says:

Have you seen the movie Wanted starring Angelina Jolie? It’s a cheesy action flick with several cool Matrix-inspired scenes. Angie looks great in it, and hawt day-am! — girlfriend sure works the smokey eye. I counted her wearing at least four stunning variations of it in brown-beige-black.
