Lusts of the Week

Is there anything worse than an internet connection that refuses to work, no matter how many times you refresh your browser? This beauty chick thinks not. So this week has been anything but fun with the internet outage in my apartment. Luckily, this affords me a lot of extra time to play with beauty products ... which means I have of course fallen in love with some new ones! Check out what I'm loving this week.

Guerlain Mysterious Butterfly Eyeshadow Palette: Seriously, have you ever seen anything more beautiful? This palette has a gorgeous butterfly flitting across pearly, shimmery eyeshadows in the prettiest shades of purple. I honestly don't even know how I'm going to bring myself to use it -- it's such a work of art, I may just have to keep it on my vanity to stare at from time to time! A special thanks to Jason at BG for setting this aside for me last week -- I definitely didn't want to miss out on snapping it up before it's sure to sell out.

Estee Lauder Re-Nutriv Ultimate Youth Eye Creme: Devoted followers will already know of my obsession with Re-Nutriv Ultimate Youth Creme. (For a refresher course, click here.) The patented formula makes skin gleam, even when it's totally parched and in need of some serious hydration. Well, now EL has gone and turned it into an eye cream that, I'm serious, rivals my very favorite La Mer The Eye Concentrate. It instantly plumps skin, rids you of dark circles, and makes you look seriously more awake than you would ever dream possible. Plus it's cooling and smells amazing. What more could you ask for?

Dianne Brill Panties In A Bunch: Frilly Thong. Sheer String. Jewelled G-String. Pearly Panty. Vinyl V-String. Satin Hipster. No, I'm not talking about lingerie from Victoria's Secret ... I'm totally obsessing over this adorable set of six lipglosses! The pink box with mesh print contains six glosses packaged in maybe the most adorable way ever -- they look like bonbons in individual wrapping. Totally adorable, I'm telling you. And the colors, all shot with glitter and glitz, are super-flattering and sexy. They're a bit gooier than I normally prefer, but the packaging alone makes me want to eat them up. My fave is Satin Hipster, a gorgeous mauve tinged with the tiniest hint of sparkle.
