Hello my beauties!  I am so excited to share with you some information on my new friend’s fabulous lip cosmetic line. Just this past January, I attended the launch party of Kimberly Riley’s long awaited lip line called FSL Cosmetics at Wink Eyelash in NYC.  It was my first formal introduction to Kimberly even though we had become great friends through Twitter long before then.  It’s amazing how social media can bring together complete strangers. Anyway, it was such a pleasure to meet the girl behind the brand and to actually try the lip sticks and lip glosses we had been tweeting about for so long. It seemed that every time we chatted, Kimberly was always working on her baby.  And it was this hard work, dedication, and true love and passion for her dreams that really made me want to know her better.  Kimberly not only attained her bachelors degree in Chemical Engineering, she achieved a double minor in Chemistry and Business Administration as well.  And as a person that cherishes an education, I really grew to respect my new friend on so many different levels.  Plus to top it all off, she’s a beautiful, smart woman too!

So let’s talk about FSL Cosmetics and the amazing launch party Kimberly threw.  As I mentioned, the launch party was held at Wink Eyelash in NYC.  It was so much fun getting to try the entire line of FSL Cosmetics and finding my perfect match.  With the help of Karen aka MakUpDiva, one of the most fabulous makeup artists in the industry, I was able to pick out my faves and learned some great application tips.   The night was truly a blast. It also didn’t hurt that I was sippin on Rose the entire night and nibbling on some cupcakes freshly baked by Tawny Ong.  Check out this pic of Nando from Nandoism, me, and Paul from Beyond Beauty Basics at the party below.

Now what I love most about FSL Cosmetics is that it truly lives up to its acronym.  FSL Cosmetics promises to deliver on the Feel, Smell, and Look of the product.  And it truly does.  From the lip sticks to the lip glosses, the formulas are light, yummy, and vibrant. They FEEL so good on my super sensitive lips, SMELL absolutely delicious, and LOOK great on me (someone that rarely wears anything but lip balm).  And to make them even better (and totally perfect for Big City Beauty), they are 100% free of parabens, phthalates, sulfates, GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms), nut oil, gluten, and talc. They don’t test on animals and the lip gloss containers are 100% recyclable!  I have to say that not only was I impressed with the woman behind it all, I was definitely impressed by the actual product itself.  Check out some pics I took below of BCB rockin’ my fave lip gloss, Pink Colada.

Well I hope you all enjoyed my many pictures, but now it’s time for the good stuff!  Because I love these lip colors so much… and love my readers even more… I am hosting an FSL Cosmetic Giveaway right here on Big City Beauty! As many of you may know, Twitter is a free social networking service that allows you to send messages in 140 characters or less.  And because Twitter is what introduced me to Kimberly and FSL Cosmetics, I wanted to make this contest coincide.  So to win your choice of one FSL Cosmetics lip stick or lip gloss, you must leave a comment below in 140 characters or less telling me what makes YOU feel, smell, or look good.  You have until Sunday, March 28th at 11:59pm EST to enter your comments.  A winner will be picked at random so to increase your chances of winning and get an extra entry, get onto Twitter now and follow @FSLCosmetics and retweet “#FeelGoodSmellGoodLookGood with @FSLCosmetics!”  The winner will be announced here on BCB on Monday, March 29th and FSL Cosmetics will contact you regarding your prize!

Good luck my beauties and don’t forget that yours truly is also on Twitter @BigCityBeauty…  xoxo
