Hi guys! 

Sorry it’s taken so long for the blog to come back online. It’s back online now for good!

So today I will be talking about Revlon’s Bold Lacquer Mascara which I’m loving at the moment. The mascara coats the lashes very well right from the start with its oversized wand. The formula, to me, is creamy and gel like at the same time, hence the lacquer part I guess. This gel like texture keeps it from drying out too fast and it gives the lashes a beautiful shine. The wand seperates, curls and lengths, impressive results. I usually buy L’oreal mascaras but now I found another drugstore favorite.

Take care,

Hi guys!

This eye creme has been around now for a while. If you’ve ever wondered about purchasing it and if wether it’d be a good investment, it is; if it lasts, it does; and if the color is true, it is. The tube it comes in might be small, but it will last you a long long time. The product gives a beautiful wash of color on the lids and you can build up the desired intensity. A little bit goes a long way. Work with it fast because once it sets, it’s difficult to work with I find. The product’s a bit pricey but worth it. 

Till next time! 

 

  

This is my fave concealer up to date and I hope they never discontinue it. This is a great concealer for women with dry/combination skin because it is truly moisturizing. It just melts into the skin giving any type of coverage you want wether it’d be light to full coverage. The only thing that I do not like is that it creases, but that’s ok. In order to prevent the creasing, powder on top with a setting powder, lightly. Tip: use your ring finger for application. It’s a light touch and the warmth helps the product work into the skin. Have a good night guys!

Hello beautees!

Illamasqua’s cream blusher is something to rave about. The pigmentation is intense, gives off great color. The blush is buildable and when blended, it has a nice glow to it. The color I got is “rude” (love the name) and it’s a peach-coral color, great for all skin tones. I love the packaging; it’s very chic and brings a good amount of product in it. Oh! and the blush smells like vanilla. It’s a very creamy blush so you can really work with it and it doesn’t dry out. 

Take care ♥

I got this bronzer as a sample from Sephora and I’m so glad I did. First off, I LOVE the smell. The bronzer smells just like chocolate and so does your face when you apply it! The powder has a nice consistency and is a light powder, not thick at all. It does last all day which is the main thing here and with my combo skin, it’s a big deal for me. This product does not dissapoint. 

Have a lovely fall day ☼

Hey guys!

I apologize for my absence, it’s been a super, busy, crazy month.

So I was in NYC recently and stopped into a Sephora, because you can’t advoid those in NYC, and got myself a Beauty Blender, the original one. I have been wanting to try this little pink sponge forever, but I couldn’t justify the price. So after reading several reviews and finding out that Sephora’s price ($19.95) was actually lower than what I’ve been seeing online at other places, I decided to get one. 

Now, what you do is when you first go to use it; run it under water, give it a few squeezes to make sure it sucks in the water. then towel dry and its ready to use. The sponge will be damp, which is the point, helping make up application. Just dip the sponge into foundation and dab into skin, don’t smear. You can also use the sponge for liquid concealer and cream blush. The results are pretty wicked. The blender makes the make up applied seem airbrushed.

Hopefully this helps you make your decision!

Take care 😉 

 

Hey guys!

Hope everyones’ been doing great!

So when you are going out and you want your make-up look to have that extra intensity in the eye area, use the tightlining technique. Tightlining is adding eyeliner to your top inner water line. It’s something that is so simple and yet it can change your make-up look entirely. 

Just pull the eye lid up gently and using a kohl pencil, line the water line.

*Kohl pencils are more gentle on the eyes.

Hi guys!! 

Hope everyone’s having a lovely week so far.

So I got the Rimmel Stay Matte Primer last month and I absolutely adore it! Keeps my shine and oil at bay for a long period of time. I put it on around 7 am and my face still looks matte by 12pm which is a win. Primer smoothes out my skin and foundation definitely goes on without a problem. The price is great, under $7. Same quality as the high end primers. Nothing to complain about here 😉

Take care!

Alright guys, gotta hand it to Clinique once again for producing another fantastic product. This serum has improved my skin significantly. I was out with my sister the other day and she noticed and commented on how good my skin looked– that made me smile!! I’ve been using this serum for 6 weeks and the results are pretty great. Now, it doesn’t make my pores disappear, that’ll never happen, but it does improve the state they are in. My pores are cleaner, smoother, and tighter. I didn’t get a break out, so another plus! Also, the level of oil on my face has reduce. The serum works great as a primer. All in all, this is definitely a re-purchase item. I’m very happy with it!

Hi guys, welcome back!

I used to have really dry lips and was for ever on the hunt for that lip balm or chap stick that will heal, soften, and smooth out my lips. I have tried a bunch of them and was never happy with the results. Well, let’s just say that I have found the ONE!! EOS lip balm is truly magical :). I had seen it in stores and was a little reluctant because I had tried the EOS shaving cream and wasn’t a fan at all. So I was a little turn down from the brand. But you can’t do that, not all products from the same brand are bad. The balm is not so shiny and it lasts a long time so it doesn’t absorb too quickly. This little ball of pure goodness not only did it heal my chapped lips but it smoothed them out so much! Omg and the flavor! The one I got is in “Strawberry Shortcake” and it smells so good! I just want to eat it lol. So this little guy is definitely a winner, thumbs up!
