At the ranch last weekend, I had to break one of my top rules and face the world without eye makeup. Not a pretty picture.
Bob said, "Why bother?" We were set to move furniture that scorching Texas morning with no one around for MILES and MILES. And any makeup would melt in a matter of minutes.
So I gritted my teeth, went au naturel and vowed I wouldn't return to our little hideaway without packing some waterproof options. That's why I was thrilled to team up with two top beauty gurus on this eye-inspiring giveaway.

A Look that Lasts Rain or Shine
I got hooked on celebrity make-up artist Mally Roncal's cosmetics after trying her Mango lip stain. That stunning, orangey red has been one of my go-to colors this summer because it lasts and lasts. And these eye enhancers promise similar staying power:
Mally Summer Splash Kit - Just about everything you need to dress your eyes for work or play and keep them looking pretty all day. There's no fear of fading or creasing with this waterproof collection, which includes:
· Evercolor Cream Eye Shadow in a lovely brown that flatters most
· Three Evercolor Starlight Eyeliner Pencils (bronze, midnight and deep blue) so you can change things up. Lining your eyes has never been easier than with these creamy formulas.
· Waterproof Volumizing Mascara for building thick, black lashes that hold up to everything from sweat
· A double-ended brush great for application and blending

Nothing lifts your look like beautiful eyebrows. But few of us are born with them! If you're like me and have brows in need of emergency assistance, you'll love this trio from the experts at Beverly Hills' Billion Dollar Brows Salon:
Universal Brow Pencil - No more guessing games! This pencil comes in a taupe shade made to work with all hair colors and skin tones. It provides a gorgeous, natural look, blending just as well into blonde hair as it does with very dark brunette brows. Plus, since it's water-resistant, the color stays in place whether you're working out or caught in the rain (swimming could be another story). And bonus, it's mechanical so you don't need a pencil sharpener. With consistent use, the Universal Brow Pencil lasts about three months.
Brow Gel - You wouldn't leave the house with messy hair, why settle for messy brows? This clear gel offers hold and control to lock in your look. The perfect finishing touch, it gives eyebrows a hint of shine while keeping them in place all day. Even better, it never flakes or makes brows look crusty.
Tweezers - Pure precision. Favored by the pros, these exclusive tweezers of the Billion Dollar Brows Salon are made of specially coated stainless steel to simplify this tiresome job.
