Needful Things - Almay Intense i-Color Bold Nudes Eyeshadow!

Unlike some of the other beauty bloggers around, I am by no means a makeup artist and especially have trouble with applying eyeshadow which is why I love anything that makes it easy (and idiot proof) like:

Almay Intense i-Color Bold Nudes Eyeshadow - $9.99 - in 4 shades for blue - copper tones, brown - purple tones, hazel - plum tones and green eyes - arboreal tones - expertly coordinated trios help you create the perfect neutral eye with a pop of colour that intensifies and brightens your own eye colour - and the clever package design shows you exactly where to put them!

A little tip I was given by a makeup artist was to bring the crease colour up past the crease so that you can see the colour even when your eyes are open for a bit of added drama!

Also available in the Intense i-Color line:

Intense i-Color Liquid Shadow + Color Primer - $9.99 - glides on liquid and dries to a powder in 4 shades for blue, brown, hazel and green eyes - a two-in-one product that doubles the impact of your own eye colour when worn alone or multiples the intensity of your fave shadow when layered underneath.

Intense i-Color Volumizing Mascara - $9.99 - in 4 shades: Plum, Mocha, Midnight and Sapphire that make your eye colour pop and a formula that features crystal-like pigments that multiply the look of lashes while dramatically intensifying eye colour while still remaining extra gentle on sensitive eyes.

Intense i-Color Defining Liner - $9.99 - in 4 shades: Teal, Charcoal, Mocha and Onyx - with molded technology for a soft and creamy texture that is still firm enough for a pecise, controlled line and rich, vibrant, sparkling pigments to bring out the undertones and flecks in your eyes. It has a liner on one side and a sponged tip on the other that can be used to create a smoky effect.

We all know Kate Hudson as the face of Almay and in honour of Mother's Day I thought I'd share this adorable video she did with her mom, Goldie Hawn...

Golden Globes' Red Carpet: The Fungus Behind the Fashion

I'm not sure what's happening tonight on the Golden Globes' red carpet, but seriously what is it with all these weird dresses? Ruffles galore and dresses that look... diseased. Look at Kate Hudson, she looks gorgeous but what is going on with that dress? It's like something is growing on her thigh, ew.

I love Julianne Moore, but why is she wearing a grey sack?

Someone should tell Tea Leoni, this is an awards show, not a day at the office.

Another actress wearing a diseased dress. This time with a fungus-like design. And who in the world likes this color? Drew Barrymore still manages to look good, though.

A ruffled nightmare.

Sofia Vergara has a fantastic figure and this grey number is not particularly flattering, it looked even worse live on TV.

There wasn't too much color on the red carpet but a couple of actresses, including Cameron Diaz, went for red, and looked lovely.

Toni Collette looked fantastic (and won a Golden Globe for best supporting actress in a TV series).

I wish I could find pictures of Sophia Loren, Helen Mirren and Jodie Foster who looked amazing in fitted black gowns...these "older" ladies still got it!

Update: I did find Helen Mirren's picture! Yay!
