10 Best Eyeliners for Fall.

Eyeliner is an essential part of your complete makeup look. Whether you like to wear it just on the upper lash line, waterline, winged out or smudged all over for a smoky eye look, finding the right formula and color is key.

I am partial to using eyeliner pencils, as they are so easy to use, but I sometimes use a gel based liner in a pot. Those take more getting used to in application, but the color payoff will be there. For this season, we are seeing dark, bold shades. Here are my picks for the 10 best eyeliners for fall.

Top 10 Beauty Buys Under $10.00.

I am the first to admit that I have been a beauty snob most of my life. I discovered department store beauty while still in high school and my taste went up from there. I am so glad that I have opened my mind to drugstore products in the last few years. I can now say that some of my favorite beauty products are in fact, from mass brands that are sold in drugstores, and most under the $10.00 mark. By now you should be able to tell that I have a serious love for COVERGIRL and L'Oreal Paris, but I am also using a few other great drugstore beauty products too.

Top 10 Gold Makeup Products.

Gold really catches the eye, doesn't it? I'm not talking gold watches and chains or a hot gold pair of shoes. I am takling beautiful makeup. Gold is one of my most favorite makeup shades for fall. Gold makeup, worn properly, can totally warm up your beautiful makeup look. I like to add a gold gloss on top of a lot of different lip colors, especially red or hot pink. It is the most gorgeous shade to highlight the cheeks with, and I wear it as an eye shadow base quite often.

Gold is a perfect shade as we make the transition from summer to fall. Here are my top ten favorite gold makeup products.

1. NARS Larger Than Life Lip Gloss - Gold Digger
