August 30, 2010/

I love trying new brands, especially when it has something new and unique to offer. Wanderlove Beauty is such a brand that offers just that - products that are unique to the beauty market.

I was excited to try out their innovative 3-in-1 lip and eye wands that are not just new, unique and innovative - they are fabulous. Talk about portable too. Read on to see how each wand is literally three products in one.

You see, each wand contains three products, all packed into a wand that pulls apart to reveal each of the products.

The Lip Wand contains a lipliner, softening lipstick and shimmering lipgloss in one wand. The Lip Wand comes in four shades, one for each lip color family - Rose, Apricot, Pink and Berry.

The Eye Wand contains an eyeliner, illuminating highlighter and cream eye shadow. The Eye Wand comes in four shades, each very pigmented. Choose from Bronze, Champagne, Moss or Smoke.

If you are longing to try these beauties for yourself, head on over to Wanderlove Beauty to see them now. Each wand sells for $16.99.
