Our style mantra: Fashion and beauty are for everyone, no matter how busy your schedule or how small your budget may be.  We represent the fashionista who has places to go, people to see, or just likes to sleep in a few extra hours.  There’s no reason to run to class in sweats and unblushed cheeks when glamour can be achieved with just a little extra effort.  Check here as Chelsea unveils quick tricks and perfect products that can update your look in a hot second, without breaking your budget.

Nothing says sexy like sultry, smoky eyes. But achieving this look can too often and too easily take a wrong turn. Celebrities pull off this look all the time, but a successful smoky look is a bit harder sans makeup artist. For me, smoky often turns into a raccoon-like hot mess.

I am almost positive the problem is not my technique. I have read directions dictated by Cosmo and imitated YouTube tutorials. The problem, I have deduced, must lie in my utensils. Apparently the materials needed to achieve the smoky eyed look are more than just your average shadow and liner. Providing the solution to my predicament, COVERGIRL just released the Liquiline Blast eyeliner. This liquid-like eye pencil is a perfectly smudge-able consistency for smoky eyes. It even includes its own smudger to create your customized sultry look.

COVERGIRL embraces this season’s trend of colorfully lined eyes, offering Liquiline Blast in six colors. I love the bright neon tones, Blue Bloom and Green Glow. If you’re stuck on which to choose, the COVERGIRL website even helps you choose the right color for your complexion based on skin tone, hair and eye color.
