We were curious to try an eyeliner that describes itself as “fun!”as most of our past pencil experiences have been anything but. Here at Peace, Love, and Lipstick we can recall many a liner that has pulled, ran, smeared, or tugged our eyes to tears. But the silky smooth texture of this little pencil quickly made us forget the lame liners of our past.
Beadhead Big Fat Fun! by Tigi glides on in one easy stroke and gives intense color that manages to stay put all day long. It is easy to blend and comes with a smudging tool to create a sexy, smoky look in seconds. We love that Tigi has added Jojoba Oil and Vitamin E to this moisture rich formula so that it won’t ever dry out.
For a very good time, try one of their seven silky shades.

Just because the stress of the holidays can wreak havoc on your skin doesn’t mean that you have to spend the season looking like Rudolph. Although most products seem to make our pimple problems more noticeable (we now have a mound of beige stucco where our blemish used to be) we found that Benefit’s Galactic Shield! Concealer makes them virtually disappear.
We love that this anti-acne concealer is oil-free, waterproof, and that it’s slim, pencil-like design makes precision application easy. Conceal and heal your blemishes in one simple step and go from pimple to perfect in 30 seconds.

Joico KPAK Deep-Penetrating Reconstructor and Intense Hydrating Treatment
Because we spent most of our twenties subscribing to the theory “we’d rather be bald than brunette” it’s no surprise that the ladies of Peace, Love, and Lipstick have suffered our share of over-processed highlights and hi-lift horror stories over the years. In an effort to make our dark hair strong, shiny, healthy, and blonde, we’ve tried every treatment for damaged hair we can get our hands on.
Our long time favorite has undoubtedly been K-PAK Deep-Penetrating Reconstructor by Joico. Its protein rich Quadramine Complex gives fabulous results every time. Use the reconstructor every two weeks for five minutes in the shower. Then rinse, reapply, and leave on for another five minutes. Immediately follow with Joico’s Intense Hydrator to put moisture back into the hair.
This power combo leaves damaged hair soft, shiny, manageable…and from finding it’s way down the shower drain.
