My Current Eyebrow Routine!

I've been experimenting with new and old brow products in my drawer the past couple weeks. So far these three babies have been my favorite combination. It's fast, easy, and I love the results. The color is perfect and lasts all day. I start with my Illamasqua brow cake in Motto. The color is described as a warm taupe on their website. It's...

Colourpop - Where the Light is

I've really been purchasing a lot of Colourpop's products lately. They are affordable (basically drugstore pricing) and the quality is amazing! The pigmentation with their eyeshadows, blushes, and lip products is perfection. The other things about Colourpop is the texture! Their eyeshadows and blushes are something you have to feel to believe. So smooth and creamy yet powdery at the same time. It's...

Younique Splurge Cream Eyeshadow - Dainty

Younique has released two of the three of their new cream eyeshadows. This is the first one I've tried and the texture was a little surprising to me. It is kind of bouncy! The consistency is super super creamy (duh it's a cream shadow) and the pigmentation is lovely. I would describe the shade Dainty as a rosy mauve, silver taupe. It is...

Dolce & Gabbana Colour Explosion for Spring 2015

This palette is going a little beyond my usual comfort zone. I was really drawn to the yellow in this quad. It's yellow but not over the top because it has a little mustard in it to tone it down. Looking at the color, I pictured a cat eye with that yellow blended into the crease and then a nude lip. It screams...

March 2015 Favorites!

Tumblr Image I was lazy makeup wise this month so the products listed here are simple and straight forward. I found myself reaching for bb cream and pressed powder for a quick foundation routine and then a quick swipe of mascara on occasion. The one thing I did do this month is start using a face mask once a week again with great...

Liquid Lipsticks - Reds, Corals & Oranges

Red lipstick is so classic and goes with every season. You can go with a deep bing cherry shade in the winter or sport a sizzling orange red shade in the summer. It can be intimidating but having a long wearing formula definitely makes me feel more comfortable while rocking this timeless trend. There is no worry of kiss marks or it traveling...
