Practical Magic
Saturday
Anyone who's ever woken up looking like a wicked witch only to be transformed into a beautiful princess with a few swipes of the mascara wand can attest to the supernatural properties of makeup. My latest magical find? Becca Cosmetics Jewel Dust ($22 each; sephora.com)--a sparkling, finely milled powder that transforms eyes from average to amazing in a simple sweep. Each of the colors, which range from deep jewel tones to pretty pastels, is named for a different mythical creature or fairy. More important, the formula is made from pure pigments, so there's no talc, fragrance, or preservatives in the mix. Upon application, you'll also find that this isn't your fairy godmother's frosted blue shadow--Jewel Dust leaves a modern, glossy-glam finish, instead of the dreaded disco-dry effect. Shades like Nissa, a violet-brown with a hint of green, look superdramatic on light peepers, while Aspara, a gorgeous peach champagne, is perfect for making the inner corners of eyes pop. What's more, each dreamy hue can be layered to your desired intensity or do double-duty as a shimmering liner. Any way use it, Jewel Dust will allow you to channel your inner fairy--wings not included, of course. --Zoe Stagg
