You all know I love duo chromes. Well for Spring, Nars has released a new duo chrome shadow that is just gorgeous. The shade is Malacca and it has a plum tone with green sheen. Nars describes it as an iridescent peacock which I would say is pretty accurate but it definitely has more plum in its base than teal/green. I can see...
I have talked about these before but I wanted to revisit this wonderful powder by Hourglass. It's the Ambient Lighting Powder in the shade Dim Light. I have these in multiple shades but lately I have been hooked on this one for warming up my face, neck and chest. I really find that it blends so smoothly. I apply it with my It Cosmetics...
White at IMATS in NY this year we got the pleasure to meet the makeup artist from Dancing with the Stars. She has her own line of illuminators and lip glosses. The powder and liquid cream highlighters are amazing. The colors are gorgeous and feel like you are putting jewelry on your skin. They shimmer and glow with such elegance. I ended up...
Being a redhead now, I had to find some new brow products to make my brows have a reddish tint. Dying them just kind of freaks me out so I'm all about the makeup products. Here are two I found and really like... GOSH Cosmetics - Venetian Brown I like this and the vibrancy it gives but it is harder to work with...
A new found love of mine is Josie Maran's Coconut Watercolor Cheek Gelée. It is so gorgeous and definitely something different that I've never tried before. If you like cream blushes I think you will like this. But I also think if you haven't tried cream blushes but like a nice wash of color for any season then you will love it as well....
This favorite is for my hair. It is a drugstore gem that I love and usually go back to a lot. Aussie's 3 Minute Miracle is really a miracle. It makes my hair super soft, smells like heaven (the scent lasts too which is amazing), and it's a quick fix! I just had my hair dyed reddish copper so my hair needed some...
Since I just went through a pretty drastic change (from brown to reddish copper)... I thought I would post a picture of my hair and then the ladies that have influenced my decision to go red. :) "I'm not bad, I'm just drawn that way." - Jessica Rabbit Christina Hendricks Lucille Ball Louise Brooks as Ginger and Jessica Rabbit of course! xoxo ...
Sephora recently had a 15% off code for about a week and well, I went crazy. lol I figured it was a good time to get things I had been looking at for a while and have been wanting to test/try out. Plus it's springtime and I love all the glowy makeup that comes out this time of year. If you went shopping...
This past weekend was great and one reason was because I got to attend IMATS for the second time! My good friend Kendall and I go (it's our thing) and it is always worth the trip. We've been lucky both years we have gone with beautiful spring weather. Once we go to the NYC IMATS, it's spring. :) Here are some photos from...
This week is yes, another mascara. I had a 100 point sample of Tarte's Lights Camera Lashes Mascara and it is really great. It actually surprised me. Usually the more traditional mascara brushes don't impress me but this one was different. Maybe it was the way the bristles were spaced or the material they were made of or maybe it was just the...
My makeup of the day today was done using Kat Von D's Monarch palette. It's a subtle quick look. I only just got this palette so there will be more looks in the future. And I apologize for my eyebrows now... lol I need to tweeze but have been waiting so I am set for IMATS tomorrow. :) Eyes: Kat Von D Monarch...
Kat Von D released more palettes! There are two new for Spring/Summer but I only bought one. I purchased the Monarch Eyeshadow Palette and it is gorgeous! It retails for $46.00. Warm toned, but it does have a few cool toned shades mixed in to balance. This palette has a perfect mix of matte, shimmer, and satin shadows as well as shades perfect...
Today's makeup of the day was done using the Too Faced Bonjour Summer Palette. I am loving this palette for a mix of brights and neutrals. Eyes: Too Faced Bonjour Summer Palette - sand dollar, cocoa beach, firefly, toasted coconut Stila Stay All Day Liquid Liner - midnight Dior Lash Plumping Primer Tarte Lights Camera Lashes Mascara Benefit Gimme Brow - medium/deep Face: Eucerin Redness...
Get ready ladies and gents, this weekend is the International Makeup Trade Show in New York City. I am so excited and grateful I get to attend again this year. I plan on taking tons of photos and buying lots of cool new things to try and tell you all about. If you are in the area and would like to attend I...
Bonjour! Too Faced has re-released their summer palette from last year (under a new name) and I am SO happy! This year it is called Bonjour Summer. I bought it in the Pardon My French Set at Sephora. It comes with a full size black eyeliner, a sample of their Shadow Insurance, a little travel bag, and a deluxe sample of their Lash...
I've really been getting into the 1960's vibe lately, with decorating and makeup especially. I've always had a little thing for the style. Lately though I don't know if it's because spring is coming and the colors are popping or if it's the season premiere of Mad Men this coming weekend that is getting me in the mood. Joan is my personal fave....
