Beauty Battlestyle....

Earlier this week, you guys had a lot of say about Kim Kardashian's skimpy little ponytail. Well the following two celebrity ponies are the exact opposite: just about as poufy and perky and styled as a ponytail can be.

Are there beauty products you extralove not just because they're really amazing, but also because they're total eye candy This week, I wanted to dedicate my editor's picks to four of the most beautiful products on my desk right now—plus one shampoo that I'm newly obsessed with (and which smells divine).
