Yves Saint Laurent La Laque Couture Nail Lacquer in Blue Cobalt, $25 We've been going on and on about cobalt liner and lashes, but these days your look isn't complete until you've got the mani to go with the makeup. When it comes to blue polish, this one has it all: It's shimmery in a chic way, the perfect middle ground between bright blue and navy, and classic enough to wear to the office or a party. It's blue. It's new. It's YSL. Enough said.

The blue mascara in the first picture was slightly frightening. I dont know for sure but I think I will stick with black. Love the nail polish though!

The blue eyelashes are outlandish, but just tipping lashes with a great cobalt mascara or using a fine liner in the same shade are beautiful. With this hue, a little goes a long way. I love the nail polish shade, but I'd get a similar China Glaze color at Amazon for less than a dollar (not counting shipping and handling).

sorry, but peacock cpmes to mind for most of these products. and i think that blue or green mascara on the lower lashes looks horrible

I am obsessed with cobalt right now, but more so in my wardrobe than in my makeup case. Those Urban Decay false lashes are WILD and I may need to own the YSL nail polish from the last slide. What a gorgeous color!

Love the blue mascara and the nail polish. I'm still not sure about the green though...

I might try the eyeliner, but that's about it.

I am not a fan of blue eyeshadows, mascara or liners...it reminds me of Mimi on the Drew Carey show.
