Clockwise, darlings…
1. Foot Petals Polish. This little stick goes everywhere I go, and mostly because I own TONS of dark leather shoes. Whether it’s a scuff on my awesome over-the-knee leather boots, or a mark left by a sidewalk-related accident on my black pumps, this polish stick repairs just about all minor shoe damage in 30 seconds. It’s genius and I don’t remember life before it.
2. Lorac’s Gold Liner Pencil. Holy macaroni, it’s on sale for less than $5 right now and has a million uses. Try it in the inner corners of your eyes for an instant pop, smudged under your brows for a highlighting effect, or just a little bit right in the center of your bottom lip to make your mouth seem fuller and sexier. Hot.
3. Sonia Kashuk’s Pointed Foundation Brush… has changed my life. I just got this brush last week in Sonia’s Gold Mine Seven-Piece Brush Set, but this brush in particular is amazing. I used to apply concealer with my fingers (and honestly I was pretty happy with that method for the past 10 years or so), but this brush somehow one-upped my hands with flawless application that left the concealer lasting several hours longer with a smoother appearance, and the whole process goes went as fast. Love, love, love.
4. Beauty Addicts Glimmery Stuff. Alright, this product is totally worth keeping in your handbag if you’re only willing to carry one product. The shimmery side (left) can be used to as a light eyeshadow, brow highlighter, cheekbone accentuation tool, or to highlight beautiful collar bones. The glossy side (right) can tame brows, be used as makeshift clear mascara in a pinch, lip gloss, emergency dry skin repair, or even a cuticle softener.
