Makeup Monday: Extra Extra Read Eye About It!

Let's face it, the heatwave is hear and runny eye makeup isn't cute! No one wants to fight the heat and smearing makeup. I'm a super fan of long lasting eye lines for the spring and summer seasons.

I've found these lines to be a true testament of their names. At easy on the pocket prices, you won't miss a beat with these amazing eye liners.

Ruby Kisses

HD Gel Liner

Beauty supply stores/Online

Under $5

If you're looking for a great gel liner that's great in color payoff and doubles as an eye shadow or base color, this is your find! Once you line your eyes, it's set! I love the color range in this line.

Wet N Wild

Gel Liner

CVS/Walgreens/WalMart/Online

Under $5

Thanks to Wet N Wild, this was the first gel liner I learned to get a perfect cat-eye on myself. It gives great wear, it's super black and won't budge. Be sure to keep the lid closed tight, it will dry out easy.

COVERGIRL Queen

Vivid Impact Liner

CVS/Walgreens/WalMart/Online

Under $8

I love this pencil in Jade. It's a vibrant green that stays put. These pencils are not advertised as waterproof or smudge proof. I love the formula, but I wish that it was retractable. I sharpened in small strokes to prevent breaking off the pencil.

Ruby Kisses

24 Hour Eye Define Liner

Beauty Supply Stores/Online

Under $3

Thanks to creator, Danessa Myricks this rich pencil, powerful in color and wear is a winner. I've used black, teal and purple. For the price, you can't beat getting a great product that holds up to the name.

Make Up For Ever

Aqua Eyes

Sephora/Online

Under $20

Make Up For Ever is known for great color and products that promise great results. They didn't fail with this one. I like this one because it doubles as an eyeliner, too!

Bold Color

Bright, bold colors are hitting the runways and clothing stores hard this year. Color is making an unprecedented splash--dare to wear neon yellow, bright pink and eye-catching purple inspired apparel and jewelry for that red carpet summer look!

Designers featured color-block shift dresses, beautiful paisley patterned clothing and a wide variety of floral patterns are everything from jackets to swimwear. Even fashion accessories such as scarves and hats, emerged this year in the boldest of shades! Pair colored denim with a floral printed wedge heel and a bold colored silk top for a cool look this summer. Exude ease and confidence in the trendiest looks this season without breaking the bank and without breaking a sweat! Get that polished 2-hour look in the ease of 20 minutes—giving you more time to do more fabulous things this summer!

Bold Emotion

With all this bright color, women have never been so encouraged to bring extra cheeriness and a bit of attitude from the office to a night out on the town. Who can possibly be depressed while wearing yellow Bermuda shorts with a white eyelet top? Who wouldn’t have a happier day simply by wearing bright pink capris coupled with a floral tunic top? When you look good, you feel good, and when you feel good, you’re simply great!

If it’s a little attitude she’s looking for, a woman can do a flirty paisley skirt to wear to the office and couple it with a lightweight biker jacket. Work from the ground up this summer season by not forgetting about your most important accessory—your shoes! Crank up the attitude a notch further with a pair of bold colored cork bottom wedges. Look long and lean and any height with this comfortable option or indulge in a pair of glittery gladiator sandals or patterned platform heels! Combined with all that this season’s prints and patterns, and your footwear will keep the mood light and you in charge!

Bold Fun

What good is summer if it doesn’t come with fun? The bold patterns, colors and styles of this season make sporting trends more fun and exciting than ever. Since today’s new styles are uplifting spirits everywhere, their empowering nature will make women everywhere excited about their own sense of style. Now women can add fun and fashion to their lives while empowering themselves with just enough attitude to be chic!
