The #1 beauty product you didn't know you needed

Imagine you have just been told that you are leaving on a plane for Europe in 5 minutes and only have time to grab ONE item from your make-up drawer.  What do you choose?

Here is my choice:

Benefit Eye Bright Pencil - $20

Buy it here

This little pink stick works miracles.  Just add a little to the inside corner of your eyes and you will appear instantly wide-awake and bright.  It takes literally 2 seconds to apply...so even if you wake-up late and are racing out the door, you have the time to do a quick swipe-swipe and you will look as though you already had your morning coffee.   

A few tips:

• For a natural look, apply just a small amount to the inside corners of your eyes. 
• For a more dramatic look, outline the bottoms and/or tops of your eyes and blend using a smudge tool.
• Although it lasts well, this pencil is very convenient to carry in your purse for touch-ups when transitioning from work to happy hour.
