We’re always on the lookout for travel-size products that make packing as simple as applying lip gloss without a mirror.
We have yet to join the three-day-trip-with-no-checked-luggage club, but we’re working on it.
Cute little minis like these Urban Decay 24/7 Eye Pencils get us that much closer to passing initiation. With five little versatile pencils in uber-bright colors, our travel Makeup Bag will never be less than exciting.
Now, if only the rest of our bathroom counter would fit into a ziplock bag…

Urban Decay has released some fresh new shades of their long-lasting Liquid Liner.
Don’t be deceived by the new inkwell-style bottle—it’s the same superior formula in a sleek new package. Check out the new colors here.
P.S—We’re still having some video issues. It has something to do with the Sony HDV Camcorder not getting along with our Mac. We’re pretty sure we figured out how to fix it, but we’re about to board a plane to New York. We’ll get it up as soon as we can. Promise!

Rich, luxurious hues mark CLINIQUE’s modern fall collection: Play in the Darks.
Finding inspiration on the runways, this collection is all about elegance and sophistication with intense color that ranges from soft and sultry to bold and dramatic.

Play in the Darks. Fall 2007 has some wonderful treats in store for us– including new shades of the fabulous Brush-On Cream Liner and joining Black Honey (the Almost Lipstick that we all bow down before) are three new limited edition shades of the best-selling formula. Can you believe?!
Here’s the scoop:

Application Tip: Lightly dip the eye liner brush into the cream liner pot. For the most precise application, dab off any excess product on the back of your hand, using it as a palette. If you don’t have a steady hand, draw three dashes along your lash line—outer corner, middle, and inner corner. Then, go back and connect the dashes.
Almost Lipstick
Color Surge Eye Shadow Trio
Blushing Blush Powder Blush
And now, the most exciting news of the day (for us, anyway) is the NEW Clinique Superbalm Moisturizing Gloss. With all the treatment benefits of our beloved Superbalm Tinted Lip Treatment, this new luxurious gloss comes in a bigger tube and offers more moisture and shine. Superbalm Moisturizing Gloss comes in eight high-sheen shades to wear alone or over lipstick:

Play in the Dark. Fall 2007 and Superbalm Moisturizing Gloss will be available beginning August 2007 at Clinique counters nationwide and at clinique.com.
