Hi girls. How was your weekend? I spent most of mine shopping for makeup/beauty products, but what’s new? Lol.

I’ve been meaning to pick up the Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess liquid shadows for a while now, but I just hadn’t gotten around to it. So this weekend I finally made it to Estee Lauder and picked up two of the shadows in Sand Shimmer and Aqua Flash.

Aqua Flash is a color I would have never considered buying a few years ago. I’m not a big fan of colors since I’m more of a neutral shadow fan, but as soon as I saw it I knew I had to pick it up. It’s the most gorgeous aqua blue eyeshadow I’ve ever seen. Ever!

I also picked up Sand Shimmer and this color is a very nice neutral. It works great for a highlight shadow or an all over shade. I love it.

So what do I think of the shadows? Well….keep reading….

Liquid EyeShadow Pros:

Liquid EyeShadow Cons:

Overall, I love these liquid shadows and highly recommend them. They’re perfect for Spring/Summer 2010.

Have you tried these shadows yet? What were your thoughts?

TGIF!! Does that statement remind anyone else of the 80’s/90’s programming on ABC Friday Nights? I hope so or else I’m just showing my age, lol. My favorite was Just the Ten of Us! What about you?

Sorry, I get sidetracked easily!!

So anyway, I’m loving the Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess Bronzing Blush. It’s gorgeous! I don’t own very many Estee Lauder blushes at all (I’m more of a MAC/NARS girl), but I’m seriously considering picking this one up. It looks so pretty. Do you own this product? What are your thoughts? Please share.

How sad! In a long-anticipated move, the Estee Lauder Cos. Inc. said Thursday it will shut down wholesale distribution of its 30-year-old Prescriptives brand by Jan. 31. Products will continue to be available through the brands web site for consumers needing replenishment, until supplies run out.

I love the changing of the seasons, because I love to see what new makeup collections will be coming out. For Fall 2009 Estee Lauder has introduced Sensuous Gold. It features warm tones of sunbaked nudes and rose. This is one of the prettiest Fall looks I’ve seen so far. It’s very natural and looks like it would suit just about anyone.

The Sensuous Gold Collection is available now at EsteeLauder.com.

Smashbox Photo Finish Light Foundation Primer.

Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay in Place Makeup SPF 10.

Best Anti Aging Treatment:

What does Big Love star Chloe Sevigny keep inside her makeup bag?

The Estee Lauder Jeweled Pink Ribbon Compact and Brush Set is a must have for every woman. This bronzer is very natural looking and will leave you looking healthy and flushed not fake baked and burnt. It also comes in the cutest little compact ever! But the best part about this product is that $500,000 of sales will go to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. And as someone who lost her mother to breast cancer I think that’s a very important cause to donate to.

The compact and brush set retails for $45.00 at esteelauder.com.
