'Antioxidant' has become quite a buzzword in the cosmetic world these days - and rightfully so!! The benefits that antioxidants can give your skin are absolutely astounding.

Fortunately, I had the opportunity to try out their eye pencils so I can personally attest to their greatness! The eye pencils have this amazing, creamy consistency which allowed for a smooth application and was perfect for smudging (Picture a brilliant smoky eye look). There's a wide selection of shades to choose from and each one was true to color; a characteristic that I'm really fond of. Each pencil cost $6.99 and came with a pencil sharpener built right into the cap! How perfectly simplistic was that?? Here were three of my favorite colors:
Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz would have loved this green eye pencil that's appropriately named Emerald City. I love how vibrant Emerald City looked against my pale skin. Every redhead should get this color immediately! I sharpened it until it formed a really sharp tip and then swept it across my upper lid for a thick, dramatic line. Then I used my finger to blend it across the rest of my lid, creating a really intense and unique color. I definitely see this as being a show-stopping color this fall!
Next, to get a great daytime look I used Sky. It is a heavily pigmented light, icy blue that will look wonderful during the winter months but also reminded me of a sweet robin's egg; making it a great spring shade as well.
To create a great evening look, I used Lapis. The pencil's creamy texture made it easy to apply and allowed me to get a really thick, even line across my lid. I used my fingers to blend the color across my lid which allowed me to control the intensity of the shade. What I loved most about this look was that it instantly allowed me to glam up my outfit for an evening out.
Thank goodness for this new cosmetic innovation! Finally, we can get a great look and still have peace of mind knowing that we're putting some much needed ingredients back into our bodies!
