Smashbox Heartbreaker Collection Spring 2010 - Baked Fusion Soft Lights - Starlights : Review & Swatches
Anybody check out the new Heartbreaker Collection from Smashbox yet ?
The one word that keeps coming to me is : FUN !
And loads of it. The flirty pinks, juicy lip glosses, bright eye shadows - all super fun ! They are perfect for the upcoming Valentine's day as they are for a bright and sunny spring !
Oh Spring...
Doesn't seem so far away, anymore !
The -is it there? Naa, it not !- look
One, if you haven't tried the Fusion Soft Lights / baked Fusion Soft Lights products from Smashbox - I'd recommend you swatch them at Sephora on your next trip. I've had their Fusion Soft Lights in Dusk for a while now and its been my default everyday highlighter. Nobody will ever know you have a highlighting product on - its subtle and almost like a soft sheen ! We can of course build up the sheen to a full on highlighter but I prefer the - is it there? Naa, it not ! look.
Starlight - Its Pink & Natural !
The new Baked Fusion Soft Lights in Starlight($30) is no different in its glow - very soft, natural and subtle. For this picture below I layered it more than a couple of times so you can see the pink. Just so very romantic without being the cheesy regular pink. The softness comes from the mixture of shades - all combining forces to create a gorgeous wash of color. And the uses are very many !
Its a great product for light to medium skin tones to use as a blush ! For medium - medium dark / deeper skin tones, I'd say this would be more of a subtle highlighter than a pink blush - the color may not show up so much.
Have you tried Soft lights ? I hear Kim Kardashian is a big fan of these !
Love,
Indian Girl

spicy asheeka-The Hot telugu Model and Actress
I wanted to type 'throw out the black liner' but then even I knew the absurdity of that statement. I changed that statement so that I would still be allowed entry into India.
When I was younger and practicing the art of make-up, my friend's younger sister would ask me bewildered: "What's the point of make-up if you can't tell you're wearing any." I was in high school and not allowed to wear anything and the few times I got to borrow my friends' make-up (insert eeewww noise here), I had to do it subtly. The point of this confession is that sometimes, we need to step out of the box a bit, and navy liner is something every, and I mean every, brown-eyed girl needs.
A deep, smouldering navy liner is perfect for the holidays (and upto your deathbed-trust me on this one). No brown-eyed girl should ever be without it. It makes the whites of your eyes pop and it somehow brings out gold and amber undertones to my brown eyes. And don't worry, it's subtle enough that you won't be jarred.
My favourite navy liners are:
Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes in 3L
This is a beautiful iridescent navy pencil that stays put through a rainstorm (was wearing this once during a very bollywood moment where I was trying to be glamorous in the rain; luckily I was alone), a bit of crying after watching UP! (great movie by the way), and even a short nap. It's my go-to navy liner that I had to replace as I have worn my old one to a stub. As this is slightly more on the navy side than a blackened navy, you can always tone downt he look with black eyeliner or eyeshadow if you please.
Kevyn Aucoin The Precision Eye Definer in Dazzle
This looks as navy as the 3L pencil only it's a lot more deep and black. I would say that this is for those amongst the brown-eyed that are a bit trepidacious or are possibly in the process of writing concerned emails to me telling me that I should take one and only one of that little pill no matter how pretty it is. In all seriousness, this cream liner is great if you want that hypnotic gaze you get with navy liner without stepping too far from black. It looks more blue in the pot than it does on the skin. It also wears really well and is a great holiday/everyday essential.
