Estee Lauder Sumptuous Two Tone Eye-Opening Mascara
A serious eye-opener, Estée Lauder Sumptuous Two Tone Eye-Opening Mascara is a dual-ended mascara that caters to not only your top lashes, but the often neglected bottom lashes as well, for your widest and brightest eyes yet. For the top lashes the BrushComber™ applicator defines, lifts and thickens lashes with bold, weightless volume with a rich black shade. For the bottom lashes, the small micro-brush will define and accentuate lashes with a softer, smudge-proof finish. Rescu. loves the BoldVolume™ technology that includes light, lash thickening fibres to lift and fill in even sparse lashes for a fluffy and flirty effect.
“My favourite woman is a woman who looks like herself at her best,” says Estee Lauder makeup director, Tom Pecheux. “I love eyes that are made up without looking too made up. This is a trick I’ve been using backstage and on ad shoots for years. The simple trick of using two different shades – darker on top, lighter on the bottom – work together to really open up the eyes.”
RRP: $58 Available from Myer and David Jones nationally. Call 1800 061 326 or head to www.esteelauder.com.au
