Makeup for Fall’s Sexist Eye
(1) Pop Beauty Smokey Eye ($32, sephora.com) This kit of 12 smoldering shades contains everything from liner to highlighter to create the hands down sexist eye this fall. All in a sleek black slim wallet that could pass for a clutch. A must have for the fall.

(2) Prescriptives Groom Stick for Brows ($18.50, prescriptives.com) Nothing shapes up your face faster then a nicely groomed brow. With this in mind, Prescriptives introduces their two-in-one tool the groom stick. One end
is a none sharpening ultra-fine tip. The other end is a plush styling brush that blends color and tames unruly brows.

(3) Bobbi Brown Sugar Metallic Eye Palette ($45, bobbibrown.com) This new limited edition Metallic eye shadow palette comes with three delicious velvety shades. Toffee, Gold Dust and Burnt Sugar are all highly pigmented high shimmer colors that stay creamy and crease free all day! I wore the Gold dust to work swept on my lid and stepped it up at night with all three. These colors are completely wearable and some of the most versatile I have tired. A serious buy for the fall.

(7) L’oreal Paris Bare Naturale Soft-Focus Mineral Finish ($15.25, drugstores nationwide) This 100% preservative free, translucent setting powder absorbs oil, minimizes appearance of fine lines and pores and controls shine all in a portable container with a built in applicator. Soft – Focus left my skin with a flawless with an ultra soft finish. The built in applicator helped me apply just enough powder. This product is a must have as we move into the fall.
