Hourglass Introduces Film Noir Lash Lacquer

Anyone I know who has tried Hourglass, loves Hourglass. Their brushes? I’m obsessed.

Frugal Snob: Topshop Fall 2010 Heavy Duty Collection

I haven’t been to Topshop since their Manhattan store opening over a year ago, but after checking-out their Fall 2010 collection I’m feeling like I’ve been missing out!
