Be glam. Be fancy.
When you find a good lipstick formula it’s kind of easy to go a little overboard. Who doesn’t want a million awesome lipsticks? I know I do! When Wet n Wild released the new summer Fergie Centerstage collection I went crazy over the limited edition lipsticks. They were just so bright and oh so creamy! I enjoyed them so much I picked up a handful more. Take a look!
A good foundation can really transform the way your skin looks. That’s why it’s so important to choose the best formula for your skin type! My skin is more on the dry side with very little discoloration and blemishes so I prefer a lightweight yet hydrating formula. I’ve tried a few different foundations but I always end up coming back to my beloved Revlon Nearly Naked. It’s the bomb!
Milani Color Statement lipsticks have been so good to me! They’re usually so creamy, long wearing and very kind to my dry lips. I never thought I’d come across a Color Statement lipstick that I didn’t like. Sadly, Hot Pink Rage just didn’t live up to the other colors I’ve tried. (more…)
I know I’ve shown you guys Lady Danger like a million times but it just dawned on me that I’ve yet to review it. Shame on me! I’ve been rocking Lady Danger for months now and it’s well overdue for a little review time shine. Let’s get right to it!
Lipsticks can be so high maintenance sometimes. Especially if you have dry lips. You have to exfoliate, apply lots of balm, prime, etc. It can be a lot! Some days I just don’t have the time or patience for a full lip routine. That’s why I love to have a fuss free lippie or two that I can just toss on throughout the day. Like my Tarte Escape Lip Surgence pencil. Take a look!
You know what I love about having brown eyes? So many different colors look great with them! I’ve rocked a lot of different colors but I always keep my blues and greens in rotation. There’s just something about them that makes brown eyes pop! I own quite a few green eyeliners but none of them make my eyes look as sultry as the Chanel Black Jade Le Crayon Kohl Intense Eye Pencil. Whew! That’s a really long name but bear with me!
Building a brush collection is like building an army. You want to pick the most efficient soldiers who can get the job done and hold up well over the years. I’m no stranger to affordable brushes but it’s good to splurge on the staples every now and then. Some higher end brands use more expensive materials and techniques to ensure that your favorite brush lasts you a lifetime. So wouldn’t you rather arm yourself with tools that’ll stick around?
I’m such a MAC girl! I don’t think I could ever get tired of MAC but it’s still nice to venture out from time to time. I’ve been exploring a few new brands this year and you know what? A lot of them are pretty on par with MAC (or even better) and sometimes at a fraction of the cost! Take the Covergirl Bombshell Lip Perfection Lipstick for instance. It’s creamy, pigmented and long lasting all for under $10!
Remember those lip glosses with the ball applicator? I used to be obsessed with them! They were super shiny, thick and sticky but I loved slathering them all over my lips when I was a little girl. Those were the days! I’ve grown into quite the lipstick addict but sometimes I like to get back to my girlish gloss days. There’s just something about a glossy pout that I can’t let go!
Wouldn’t it be nice if we could pause time to do our makeup? Don’t get me wrong. I’m not trying to spend hours at my vanity but sometimes I do wish I could toss on an eyeshadow or two without rush. A girl can dream! Since we haven’t cracked the time pausing just yet I’ve been getting cozy with my bold eyeliner stash for a splash of color. I’m usually rocking blues or greens but the Marc Jacobs Jazz(Berry) Highliner Gel Crayon has me singing a different tune lately. Check it out!
