Oh, wouldn’t it be delightful if we could just erase some of the mistakes of our pasts- bad investments, saying something hurtful to a loved one or perhaps having one too many glasses of champagne when the clock strikes midnight??  Unfortunately, it seems as though reality has a different plan in store for us and, thus, we are forced learn those pesky things called “lessons.”  (I suppose we can at least we can rest comfortably knowing that with each life experience, we grow stronger and wiser.)  Thankfully, however, the beauty industry knows not just how to cover mistakes, but to eliminate them altogether…cosmetically, of course.

Revlon Makeup Eraser Pen- The only downside to this otherwise brilliant wand is that it cannot erase cosmic mistakes like it does cosmetic ones.  A few simple swipes will cause any makeup mishap to vanish into the past.  Yes, even your best waterproof formula will disappear.  In addition, the pen is reusable.  So be liberal when applying mascara or be bold and try that vampy colored lip liner because if you make a mistake, the visual reminder is of zero consequence.

Here’s to a clean canvas and a fresh start in 2009!!!  Happy New year.
