I was recently reviewing my blog, and some of the posts that are readers favorites. One post that keeps popping up is my review of the Cargo Eyelighter Pencil from way back in 2009. This product is still one of my favorites, but there have also been some newer versions that have been brought to my attention in the past three years.
The list below are some of my newest finds to help brighten up the eye area, and give your peepers a pop!
- Mally Beauty Eye Pencil: A simple brightning pencil, perfect for the inner corners, or under the lower lashes
- Smashbox Artificial Light Powder: One of my newest favorites for the inner corners, top of the eyebrow, and over the cheekbones. Instant glow.
- Smashbox Halo Liquid Highlighter: Perfect alternative to powder for those with drier skin.
- Smashbox Photo Op liquid eye highlighter: LOVE. Can be used anywhere the face needs an extra pop. The perfect shimmery peach.
- Tarte Eyebrightner Night and Day Pencil: A must have for the purse. Instant 8 hours of sleep.
- benefit EyeBright: Used on the set of Grey’s Anatomy to help the doctors look more awake. Wonderful under concealer.
- Mally Beauty Liquid Light
- benefit watt’s up: Another great for all over brightness.
*And as always, the Cargo Eyebrightner never fails!!
I’ve been looking for an eye brightening pencil and have heard the MAC NC15/NW20 is really good too, have you tried this as well? It’s great to see some alternatives, especially when the MAC pencil will cost about $40!!
This is very useful. I love a good highlighter and always seeking for something new. I dont tend to look my best in the early mornings lol. I just hope the products are avaible here in Europe too
