The DeLush Awards: Eyes

Thanks to everyone who voted in this year's DeLush Readers' Choice awards! We'll be showing you our picks as well as the winners of the reader's choice each day this week.

Tomorrow - Lips (Lipstick, Lip Liner, Lip Gloss, Lip Balm); Saturday - Face (Foundation, Powder, Concealer, Blush).






EYESHADOW


Melissa's Pick: Smashbox Eyeshadow


Unbelievably soft and smooth in texture (no, seriously, it's UNbelievable), this shadow blends gorgeously and comes in a wide array of beautiful colors. I'm going to have to exercise some restraint as far as how many of these I can actually snatch up!


Retail Price: $16.00 (at smashbox.com and sephora.com)






Jen's Pick: Urban Decay Eye Shadow


These eyeshadows come in so many great matte as well as shimmery shades, they've made eyeshadow the most fun part of my daily routine. They apply easily without creasing, and they last throughout the day.


Retail Price: $15.00 (UrbanDecay.com or Sephora)





DeLush Readers' Choice: MAC Eyeshadow


Retail Price: $13.50 (maccosmetics.com and select department stores - find one near you HERE)





EYELINER


Melissa's Pick: Maybelline New York Unstoppable Smudgeproof/Waterproof Eyeliner


Doesn't the name say it all? Unlike many drugstore "long-wear" pencils, this one goes on smoothly without tugging at your eyelid - and WOW, does it ever stay put. At a budget-friendly price, this liner definitely has my attention. Oh, and self-sharpening? Double points!


Retail Price: $6.79 (at drugstores and superstores everywhere)




Jen's Pick:Bobbi Brown Long Wear Gel Eyeliner


I used to think that eyeliner was difficult to apply, difficult to keep in place and too dramatic for daily wear. Now that I have an eyeliner that will stay put all day while looking completely natural, it's hard to imagine not having eyeliner in my beauty routine.


Retail Price:$18.00 (at BobbiBrownCosmetics.com or select department stores)





The DeLush Readers' Choice Award: This one was a tie between MAC Powerpoint Eyeliner and Bibo Eye Pencil.


Retail Price: MAC Powerpoint Eyeliner - $13.50 (maccosmetics.com)- and some department stores); find Bibo's Eye Pencil and pricing at select salons or call 800.456.9322





MASCARA


Melissa's Pick: Maybelline Full 'n Soft Mascara in Waterproof Formula


The product I am most devoted to of ALL. I am a COMPLETE mascara junkie (I feel NAKED without it...a LOT of it), and this never clumps or globs no matter how many coats I put on, will NOT budge, and makes my lashes really pretty and not at all brittle. I would absolutely recommend this to every woman I know.


Retail Price: $6.49 (at drugstores and superstores everywhere)




Jen's Pick:Blinc Kiss Me Mascara


This mascara was recommended to me by several of our readers, and I certainly know why. It applies easily without clumping, it doesn't budge until I am ready to remove it, and it looks like my lashes are naturally lush. This is a perfect mascara for work or for play!


Retail Price:$24.00 (Sephora)





The DeLush Readers' Choice Award: Blinc Kiss Me Mascara


Retail Price:$24.00 (Sephora)
