Duo

Cool beans! This inventive Tarte Cosmetics Lock and Roll Eye Shadow Duo ($28) claims to be be crease-proof and smudge-proof. It houses both a cream side and a loose powder side and is part of Tarte's new Stain or Shine Summer 2007 Collection.

Here's how it works. Begin by applying the liquefied, vitamin E enhanced cream shadow to your lids. Wait about ten seconds for it to dry and then use the roller side to apply the shimmery loose powder shadow. This combination of ingredients ensure that the color binds to your eyes and stays put for hours on end.

So far there are two shades available: Patina (light green) and Bronze. The concept sounds really neat, and since I feel like we've been hearing a lot about smudge proof this and crease proof that lately, I am eager to test the waters. I only wish there were a couple more colors out to choose from. Have you tried this product? Any tricks I should know about?

These darling compact lip gloss and lip liner all-in-one duos make a great pair for the gal on the go. They are small, practical and although they are a touch more expensive than most glosses alone, you really can't beat a two for one deal!

Valerie Beverly Hills Duo Lips , $22, is a medium shade pink lip gloss that comes with a detachable matching lip liner. I can't wait for her to come out with more colors, this product is genius! As for now, this darling duo is available in one shade only.

Cobalt blue is a hot color for Spring and the smoky eye is a classic sexy makeup look we've been seeing on the runways for Fall. Combine these two trends and you can't go wrong! Here are some sexy and cool new cobalt blue smoky eye sets.
