Jelly Pong Pong Cosmetics 2-in-1 Shadow/Liner – no cones (cones rule things out for me personally – allergy maybe), no fragrance but it does use petrolatum, parabens and BHT. This is a 5 with the skin deep cosmetics database. Crown Brush Professional Tweezers – nice! these seem pretty solid. We’ll see how they wear over time. Octavio Molina…
