MAC Suite Array Eyeshadow Duos

I'm a former frequent traveler, and always hated whittling down my makeup collection to carry-on size. Luckily, today's business woman on the go needs no such sacrifice. These adorable shadow duos by MAC in the Suite Array collection are roughly the size of a matchbook, and are available in 8 different color combos.

I'm loving the shimmering Sweet Liaison (a pale yellow gold and dark metallic brown) and the sultry Smoke & Ash (perfect to create the smokey eye).  The surprise was how much I liked the Rose Suites shades (top image).  The pale pink/deep pink combo wasn't overkill at all.  The combination was eye-opening!

The best part?  These adorable sliding compacts are also economical.  Retail price is $16 for each compact!

adesign Makeup Brushes

makeup brushes, adesignIn the quest to find a perfect gift for women, the hunt invariably turns to brushes. Brushes are–really–the most important part of our makeup regimen. Why? Without a good brush, even the highest quality makeup can look amateurish.  Yet so many women refuse to splurge on a decent set of brushes for themselves, so they make an excellent holiday gift.

I've been so thrilled with the brushes by adesign that I've sampled, including this defining and detailing collection of eye makeup brushes.  I wanted to call this set to your attention for a very good reason.  You can currently buy it for only $19.95 on the adesign website!  It includes the aDesign All Over Eye brush, Eye 2, Eye 4 and Eye 5, contained in a sleek moc-croc stamped brush case that is the perfect size for on-the-go brush storage.  Shop these brushes individually, and you'll see what a screaming good deal this is…  How surprised your Mom or Sister would be, if you were to wrap up some adesign brushes for them this holiday season!

The crown jewel of this collection is the All Over Shadow brush (that retails for $22 if you were to buy it on its own) that is so amazingly dense and fluffy, it makes applying your base shadow fast and fabulous at the same time. 

Retail locations include many glam boutiques like Lily Cosmetic Boutique in Whistler, BC (I'll have to head there, the next time I'm in the area), skoah in Vancouver, BC, Humber in Toronto, Stella Nova in Charleston, SC, honey in Atlanta, GA and JuvEsssentials in San Francisco, CA.
