Bobbi Brown Tinted Eye Brightener
This is one of my lovely friend Margaret’s favorite things. She says:
“It makes me look awake when I’m not. I don’t like to wear a lot of eye makeup, but a girl can use a little brightening now and then.
The salesperson freaked me out by saying it was a nonsurgical way to get an eyelift. I’m only 36!”
So that salesperson can stuff it, but it’s certainly true that every girl could use a little brightening. I feel sunnier already.

Bra Baby
I never thought I’d be listing a Sky Mall product, but I got an email from Marielle Vena who says:
“I wore a 36C in the eighth grade and know a little something about bras – mostly that I hate ‘delicates day.’ I have been a slave to hand-washing my unmentionables ever since I discovered that those care tags mean business and ignoring their warnings was going to leave me destitute. I still have to hand wash a few things, but as far as most underwire bras are concerned, this product has been the biggest time-saver in my life. I love it! Try the two-pack and I swear you will have six or eight in no time.”
$20 at Sky Mall
