It Takes a Legend to Improve a Legend
Did you know there is an industry standard for eyelash curlers? It’s true. There is an eyelash curler that is iconic among makeup artists. It’s award winning brand that bares the name of the Japanese native and industry legend who created it.
It’s claim to fame is the construction and shape. It truly curls your lashes not crimps them. The light colored pad, helps you to physically see when all your lashes are in the curler, and the shape is perfect for deep set eyes. No pulling, no weird lash bending.

LimeLife by Alcone’s new On the Rise Eyelash Curler… wonder where it’s made?
So you can imagine my surprise when LimeLife unveiled a new eyelash curler. LimeLife by Alcone was created by another company who is legendary in it’s own right among makeup artists, Alcone. I know Alcone is 100% aware of the industry favorite. So I wonder... “What do they know, what did they discover that would make them take on the fave?” Well guess what! Now I know... guess where LimeLife’s eyelash curler is made? In the same factory and the industry fave and pro standard!
What does that mean? Usually when items are made in the same factory, they are the same product that could be sold by multiple names; or a variation of the same product with upgrades or special changes. In this case, the only complaints received about the Shu Uerma curler is that:
Sometimes is wasn’t wide enough for the widest eyes.
There are no refill pads
And wouldn’t you know the On The Rise eyelash curler from Alcone has all the benefits I listed above about the Shu Uerma curler but it also is:
1. Wide enough for the widest eyes.
2. Comes with a refill pad and refill pads will be coming permanently to LimeLife shortly.
Aren’t you glad I do the digging to get you the deets?
You’re welcome.
New Products for 2019 - How Do They Pick 'Em?
So Spring is finally here! I for one, never thought it would get here. I wasn’t just ready for more daylight, I was ready for some new additions to the LimeLife lineup.
Spring 2019 Includes a couple of tools including a professional eyelash curler.
LimeLife is the brainchild of the professional makeup supplier Alcone Co. The intent is to give professional makeup artists the ability to supply their clients with makeup and skincare that they actually use and trust, in one place, and to benefit as a professional. As a professional artist I can tell you that when I made a list of products or mapped out a look for a client that included a list of products, and told them they would have to go to more than one place to get the them, I could immediately see the look of disappointment on their face! I want my clients to be able to achieve the same professional results that I achieve for them. I don’t want them to cut corners because of convenience. LimeLife by Alcone makes me not only your artist, but also your one-stop-shop for the same professional products that I use and trust.
These new professional gel eyeliners were five, yes five, years in the making! The formula and colors carefully executed.
So what does this have to do with the new Spring lineup? Everything. LimeLife by Alcone is a company devoted to professional grade products that give professional results, that is their focus. Their goal is not to roll out as many products as possible, as fast as possible. The products have to work under professional conditions (extreme temps, long hours, all types of video and photography), in terms of skincare - they have to be effective, and skincare and makeup both have to be what is truly needed. For instance the colors chosen are colors that come from the input of makeup artists around the country and what they use most and have communicated that they need the most. So the LimeLife lineup of products is very carefully curated. When new products are added it is indeed a special occasion!
Did you know hand sanitizer is very important to the pros? Hygienic conditions are of the utmost importance when working with clients! You can count on your skincare specialist or makeup artist to want the most out of every product. This hand sanitizer doesn’t disappoint!
