Make-ing-up is hard to do: This is the time of year when fashion magazines weigh more than the models on the cover and makeup companies "take artistic license." Estee Lauder has just introduced Fall 2004 Color Story, featuring "inky darks" for eyes and "sheer berry stains" for lips with names as sensuous as those found in any pop novel. Sample these products at Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Saks and other fine stores. And check out the Super Lash XL Maximum Length Mascaras that make lashes soooo long. Cool.
