Product Review: Sunday Riley Prismasilk Eye Color in Lady Godiva

It’s turned out to be a big week for nudity here on Tinsel Creation: first Lady Gaga, then Helmut Newton, and now an eyeshadow named for the folk heroine who rode her horse naked through the streets of her city in order to gain tax cuts for its citizens. The hot weather must be getting to me.

(Why would I want to wear false lashes, or have anyone think that I am, anyway? I’m not a burlesque performer.) I don’t have easily irritated eyes or any need for a waterproof formula, either. I just want to add a little extra length and definition. It shouldn’t be a tall order.
