Summer is in full-swing, which means everyone is pairing up (love is the air, blah, blah, blah), and twosomes are just popping up all over the place (like Noah’s Ark! ha!). Fittingly, some cosmetic companies are getting in the one-is-the-loneliest-number mode and releasing some products that are all about dual capabilities (lip glosses that plump your lips, moisturizers that bronze, etc.). And hey, don’t we all love a good match?
That’s why I’m sweating Susan Posnick’s ColorEyeDefine (pictured above). The pencil features a slanted tip liner on one (pictured above in an electric turquoise color which, FYI, is one of the hottest hues for eyes this summer) and, on the other end, a self-dispensing eye shadow with a sponge applicator (this allows you to smoothly apply the color on your eyelid without running the risk of excess powder shadow getting on your temples, cheeks, etc., and making a big ol’ mess). The applicator is extremely soft so it’ll feel as gentle as any eyeshadow brush.
Want more reasons to fall in love with this one? Well, the liner tip is retractable, which means you can twist up when necessary and never worry about having to pull out a sharpener. The angled tip makes the application a breeze and makes it easier to achieve your desired look (whether it’s a barely visible line of color or a thick streak). The color combinations available are also exciting: there’s turquoise/topaz (pictured here), jasper/sandstone (an olive green liner with a beige shadow), jet/moonstone (a charcoal black liner and pearl white shadow), sapphire/amethyst (a darker, more serious blue and a deep, gray-ish purple), amethyst/opal (a mauve-like purple and a soft lilac), bronze/copper, platinum/gold, and smoky quart/rose quartz. Now, these are marriages built to last!
