I love the look of voluminous lashes as much as the next girl, but you wouldn't know it, given my track record. I'm terrible at following through with any beauty regimen: I don't bother using nightly eyelash treatments; I don't wear mascara because it's a pain to scrub off; and I have no patience for gluing on falsies. But when LuxLash, a specialty salon for lashes and brows, offered to apply lash extensions on me at their Beverly Hills location, I jumped at the chance—and, boy, was it awesome!

Move over, Tory Burch. There's a new, cheaper and way cooler ballet flat in town! Lindsay Phillips' line of genuine Napa leather shoes ($64) come in black, bronze and silver and are adorned with a matching flower that can be—wait for it—swapped out for another adorable embellishment. Pretty amazing, right?! There are a dozen accents ($12) to choose from, including multigem medallions and charming blossoms—all of which easily snap into place.

I am obsessed! It's fun changing out the doodad to suit my mood or complement my outfit. The revolutionary design truly makes it seem like you own multiple pairs of chic ballet flats. Perfect for this frugalista! But as much as I love the unbelievably comfy footwear, there is a downside to having a removable shoe part.

Miracle Product: Lash Trio ($40)

They Say: The three-step system (treatment, conditioner and antiaging cream) results in longer lashes.

We Say: Keep reading for reviews from Style staffers!

Pros: The treatment goes on very well and the eye cream is very light and makes the skin feel soft.
Cons: I didn't notice any lash growth.

Not only are Bra Barrettes ($8-$40) intended to keep bra straps in place underneath clothing, some also come decorated—with a single charm or rhinestones—so you can expose them as fashion accessories when wearing tank tops. Here's what we thought of the charmed versions.

Pros: It kept my bra straps in place.
Cons: I don't think it's fashion-forward. It seems immature. The charms aren't comfortable under clothing.

Pros: I was able to control the intensity of the sexy red color.
Cons: I had to reapply after half an hour—my lips looked like I just drank a glass of Hawaiian Punch.

Supermodel Heidi Klum's new limited-edition makeup collection, Exotic Jewels ($13-$22), isn't available at Victoria's Secret until next week. But we made a point to get our hands on the cosmetics—lip gloss, lipstick, Glitter Liquid Eyeliner, Luminous Face Powder Gems, eye shadows and extra-length mascara—before then. Her skincare line was an instant hit! The line sure boasts an alluring and rich palette, but will it do wonders for our look? Is the makeup easy to use? Keep reading to find out!

Pros: The eye shadows looked amazing together. The lip gloss lasted all day.
Cons: Purple lashes aren't appropriate for every day. The lipstick wasn't very moisturizing, so I always had to use the gloss over it.

Pros: The soap lathered well on the two sponges, which were great exfoliators, and gave a deep clean.
Cons: The soap didn't rinse off well.
