Almay has come out with some new eye makeup palettes, formulated to play up the color of one's eyes. They have eye shadow trios and liners, specifically for each eye color.

I can only speak for the green-eyes formula but, I am tossing all of my old eye makeup, in favor of this line. The only thing that I am not changing, is my mascara. They also have palettes, for blue eyes and brown eyes.

Yeppers, I've got the one for brown eyes! It is the eye shadow I use most!

oh man. I'm a make-up freak. I'm attracted to the makeup Isle.

Anyways, I've tried the one for blue eyes, and I just personally think it's too dramatic for me. The brown really does bring out the blue in my eyes, but it's too much for me. I've reverted to using this really AWESOME eye shadow from Chicago, (I've got to order it online).

My favorite mascara (and I will never use anything else) is by covergirl. It's a pinkish-purple tube, and the brush is AMAZING! It's new. Works great and really separates the eye lashes. I love it.

My favorite mascara is Pro-Long Lash by Mac. It costs about $10 for a tube. I haven't used anything else since I tried it.

I'll have to check it out, especially if they have something for hazel or gray eyes. I often have trouble getting the right shades, because I have blue-gray eyes with a green ring in them.
I've been using the Jade/Maybelline Volume Express mascara for a while now, because the waterproof formula is great for contact lens wearers.

You know the trial makeup things they give you in department stores if you buy $25 worth of makeup.......?

I actually like the minature sizes better. How come you have to buy something from them for them to give it to you? How come you can't buy a trial-sized sample outright? I never use enough makeup before the makeup expires. Trial sizes are much better for me.

I can't wear eye makeup because I use microscopes so much........

For mascara, I wear a blue one. I am Asian so I can pull it off
I rarely wear mascara, though.

Since my LASIK surgery, I've been playing around with my makeup. My eyes are large and green and these shadows and liners make them look huge and brilliant.

Most of the time, I use Wet 'n Wild Mega Wink black mascara ($1.50 at WalMart). Recently, I bought a close-out at Walgreen's - Arissa - and it works very well. In addition, I have some blue and purple Avon mascaras.

I use the Almay foundation and powder, haven't gotten the eyeshadow, but I do have a coupon so maybe next time I'm at Wal-mart.... as for mascara I use Avon's Lash Designer in black, the brush is one of those small ones and i have very short lashes so it gets right in there

My Almay mascara sits unused also, I didn't like it. I love the new covergirl lash exact mascara at the moment - the brush is great and you get no clumping


Covergirl also have a colour consultation where they tell you which of their make up suits you better
