Don't forget to enter my giveaway featuring Anastasia Beverly Hills liquid lipsticks from her new fall collection! A second place winner will receive LASplash's Ghoulish liquid lipstick! You can never have enough lipstick!

In honor of National Lipstick Day (yes it's a thing!) I thought a giveaway would be the perfect way to celebrate! One winner will receive 3 of Anastasia Beverly Hill's new fall collection liquid lipsticks in the shades Blush, Sugar Plum, and Veronica! A second place winner will receive LASplash's liquid lipstick in the shade Ghoulish! This is the perfect way to try out the formula and get your lipstick wardrobe ready for Fall! Good luck and thank you for your support!
And remember on a bad day, there is always lipstick.
I saw this picture of Miss Kim and immediately needed this palette. I love its rosy mauve tones. This look is so different than the standard smokey eye which I find refreshing. The colors still pack a lot of impact and that seductive air like the original smoky eye but make it new and modern.
The palette includes all matte textures except for the black shade. The black is a matte base with subtle silver specks, gorgeous and a nice twist on the usual pure matte black. Each shadow is buttery smooth and blends gorgeously. I would definitely recommend this palette for anyone looking for a new kit staple. It would work great for bridal and just your everyday glam. This is a great find!

Purple was never one of my favorite colors but makeup wise lately it has been growing on me big time. With all these deep eggplants and greyed out lavenders it's hard not to fall for the rich hue. Spring was all about lilacs and pastel shades and Fall will be covered in lush, vibrant plums.
I tried to include a variety of shades here. Kat Von D's Ayesha is absolutely gorgeous! The perfect grey under toned violet. I also posted Anastasia's Potion - a deep blackened eggplant. Potion is a vampy statement shade and with a capital v. Younique's Savvy lip stain is a stain more than a liquid lipstick per say but it holds its own on the list and looks gorgeous with their Pompous lip liner. This is just the beginning of my purple liquid lipstick collection as they keep releasing new and amazing shades every day! When I purchase more I will update this post! Any shades you recommend me to check out?  |

Another beautiful cream shadow has been released by Younique! This time it is a soft icy baby blue. This shade is so delicate and reminds me of Cinderella. Glass slippers and Fairy Godmother anyone? The soft sparkle is eye catching but can be applied sheer for a subtle effect. Check out the swatch below. Click here to order Dreamy today!

Today's lip of the day is a combination of Urban Decay's 24/7 Lipliner in the shade Deep and Mac's Yash lipstick. The two make an interesting combination with the rosy brown tones of Deep combined with the yellow tinged brown of Yash. I would definitely wear this look again in the future! What was your lip combo today?

These jeans people, these jeans. They are the best fit and length (for my 5'1" height) I've found. I can see these working for every season because the length is so perfect for me (they come to my ankles). They work well with flips flops all the way to snow boots. I've already bought three pairs and right now they are on sale so I thought I would share with you guys!
Find them here!
I can't believe it is July, we are more than halfway through 2015 already! I hope everyone had a fun and safe holiday weekend!
Jergens Natural Glow Mousse - Medium Tan - A really great moisturizing and easily applied self tanner! This is so silky and sinks right in. I love the texture and color. Another win in drugstore self tanning!
Maybelline Superstay Better Skin Foundation - This foundation is a great everyday foundation. The finish is satin to dewy and the coverage I would say is medium. It applies well with a flat top kabuki brush and I usually like to set it with a powder because of the Summer weather. My skin does seem to like the foundation too. No breakouts from it and I feel like when I wear it all week my skin's texture is smoother. A really nice all around drugstore foundation.
Here are my favorites from June....
Surprisingly I have been into purple this past month. I've been digging purple lips and eyeliner. The lavender and violet shades easily and effortlessly brighten up your look. There is a luminosity to this color that I love.
Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner - Asphyxia - This duo chrome lavender is so gorgeous. I never would have picked it (and the eyeshadow) out if it wasn't for an Urban Decay sales rep at Ulta. She used it on the inner corner of her eyes and it brightened everything up. Definite yes in my book! Check it out.
Urban Decay 12 Hour Afterglow Blush - Bittersweet - The most unexpected color. Surprisingly it makes a wonderful contour and flush on those cheeks. Love this because it is so different from anything I have in my collection already. I haven't been this excited about a blush in a long time!
Urban Decay Eyeshadow - Asphyxia - The same shade as the eyeliner described above, but in shadow form. I am obsessed with duo chrome shades in general so I was excited to add this to my arsenal. Makes a great highlight on the cheeks and a brightening pop of color on the inner eye area.
Mac Pro Longwear Nourishing Waterproof Foundation - I think this is going to be on a lot of favorites lists this month. It is definitely one of the most long wearing foundations for Summer I've ever worn. It stays put but doesn't create dryness and it doesn't feel like a mask either. A little goes a long way with this baby so the tube will last a long time. It think it makes a good event foundation as well. Would work fabulous for brides having Summer weddings!
Mac Dazzleshadow - She Sparkles & Boom Boom Room - I LOVE this formula. I wish I had purchased more than two shades while they were available (part of the Le Disko Collection). These are basically duo chrome finished of pressed pigments. The size is the same as a regular Mac eyeshadow. The formula is fallout free, super pigmented, and just all around glamorous. Please Mac, make these permanent!!
Mac Mineralize Skinfinish Natural - Medium Plus - It wouldn't be right if I didn't include this in another favorites post. By far the best and most used (beside Bare Minerals loose powder foundation) powder foundation. It's never flat and doesn't bother
Mac Lipstick - Whirl & Stone - I love matte textured lipsticks and these shades do not disappoint. Matching their twin Lip Pencils, the perfect 90's lips.
Mac Chromographic Pencil - Marine Ultra - The perfect waterline liner in the perfect shade of blue! This pencil goes on like buttah!
Benefit They're Real Mascara - Beyond Blue - I love the original black shade but this blue is so awesome for Summer! It stays put (no raccoon eyes here) and the color it so vibrant. It works just as well as the black, lashes are long and voluminous.
Benefit They're Real Pushup Liner - Beyond Blue - A vibrant blue waterproof gel liner in a tube. Need I say more? Cat eye #onfleek.
Smashbox Bronze Lights Bronzer - Deep Matte - I wouldn't think I would go for the dark shade but it really blends flawlessly. The formula is so finely milled it's like airbrush. Thank you Jaclyn Hill for posting this in your haul video for me to find! :)
Maybelline BB Bronze - Light 1 - An easy way to have that Summer glow, moisture, and sun protection in one quick product. It's the perfect quick makeup must have.
Neutrogena Pure and Free Liquid Sunscreen - SPF 50 - By far the most weightless sunscreen I've ever put on my body. Love it. Simple and straight to the point.
Shiseido Ultimate Sun Protection Spray SPF 50+ - This is a fabulous sunscreen spray that didn't irritate my skin nor did I get any sunburn while on vacation last month. The scent is a typical sunscreen scent so I could do without that but other than scent, it's wonderful.
Jergens Instant Sun Mousse - Light Bronze & Deep Bronze - These are awesome! I love that they blend easily and no streaks to be found. You can build up the color to your liking by just reapplying day after day. It's a natural tone too. This will definitely be a staple in my drawer all year. The Light Bronze shade would be perfect for subtle color during the Winter months. Great job Jergens!
