I was introduced to this line of products at the Maria Pinto show last season (they provided the makeup looks) and the Chicago-based Amazing Cosmetics most certainly did not disappoint! Available online at Sephora.com, I can’t get enough of their incredible concealer, that takes care of the pinkest of pimples and darkest of under eye circles, but I also tested and loved their Suede Collection eye shadow quad in Wheat,which gives one the guidance to create a variety of looks using contour and liner capabilities. Check out the entire line of products, and support a very cool company on the rise! -Julia DiNardo

Earth day may have come and gone, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t be environmentally friendly and chic with your fashion-related options 364 days of the year! I recently attended a Robert Verdi Tweet This event entitled ‘Eco -Chic for Earth Day,’ and found out about some cool products that I had never heard of before! Here are my favorites, that I thought you’d like to know about:

Sprout Watches these watches range from 80-86% eco-friendly, and include materials such as corn resin, recycled fibers, organic cotton, bamboo,and a mercury free battery. The coolest part – it’s biodegradable! Watches retail for about $30.
Green Planet SearchYou can buy acreage and view all of the vegetation and animals on the land — in a rainforest reserve! I may not be able to afford a square inch of land in NYC, but hey — at least I have a bit of rainforest to show off!
