Bobbi Brown has introduced a four step alternative to plastic surgery with her 'makeup face Lift'. Her new products lengthen lashes, covering up dark under-eye circles, and add a layer of lip balm that plumps the lips.  The four-piece collection includes peptide-rich Extra Eye Repair Cream, which contains several natural plant oils that targets and treats wrinkles, dark circles, and puffiness while providing the perfect emollient base for Browns Tinted Eye Brightener, now available in portable pen form. The Eye Brightener is a lightweight concealer to instantly brighten under-eye circles and refresh your look. Two new sheer and reflective shades of Brown’s Brightening Lip Gloss are also on offer to give the illusion of plumper lips, as are some new brow pencils, which she recommends using to give your eyes a “lift” with defined eyebrows. Although the overall effect isn't as great as actual plastic surgery, it's far less expensive. From $20 - $65. Buy through NORDSTROM.Nordstrom.  

The online giant Zappos is growing by leaps and bounds, now they are selling department store cosmetics, and they have an exclusive makeup set with one of my favorite brands, Stila. The make up kit is a combination of some of their best selling products. The fresh-faced set includes:

Stila Sun SPF 15 Bronzer in Shade 02 .28 oz.
Multi Effect Mascara in Black .54 fl.oz.
Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer in Shade 02 1.7 fl. oz.
Lip Glaze in Vanilla .08 fl. oz.
Eyeshadow Pan (refill) in Barefoot Contessa (shimmering metallic plum) .09 oz.

If you were to buy these products separately they would cost about $120, but the kit is only $40, a very good deal. I use the mascara and tinted moisturizer everyday, both are great products. I just got the Vanilla lip glaze the other day, and it's a very pretty shimmery nude color. It has just a hint of color and I wear it over lipstick for a nice shimmer or alone for a more casual look.
