I will be back soon

Hey lovelies,
Hope everyone is doing well. I have so many stuff to share. Bought a new camera and of course some makeup. Super haul collection coming soon & some very nice lipstick swatches. I have so much to share. I have decided to go on a no buy ( who's with me). I am so serious about this as I have been buying too much lip & eye products. I need Tobit pan on what I've got before I purchase anything else.
Anyways I am still checking out everyone's blog and reading your post, if I don't comment please don't be offended. Most of the time I am checking via the I-phone/I-pod and commenting is quite difficult. I can't wait to share pictures from my new camera. Love u all for sticking around. Have a terrific weekend.


Be fabulous!

NEW BOLD LIP COLOR

Hello lovelies,

I hope all is well with each and everyone. With that's going on: natural disasters to Chile and previously Haiti, my prayer goes out to each and everyone.



I recently purchased a lipstick from Ebay (yes I love online shopping: the best). I rarely purchase unsealed lipstick online due to hygienic reasons, but a MAC MUA had showed me once how to sanitize lipstick. I will mention that later on in this post.

So the lipstick I purchased was Milani Color Perfect lipstick in Mango Mambo.
When I saw it on the website, I decided I had to search for it in drugstores and I did and didn't find it until after I ordered it on Ebay for way below the drugstore price. Yayyy for deals!!
I really love it, it's like a orange red color and it's cream texture. I am really into reds lately and loving every different shades you can find. Here is a picture of it from the internet and swatches on my lips.



Swatched on my lips

As you can see it's a lovely color and wearable for various occasion. Bold but it all depends on you and being a bold lip girl, I'll just wear it about anywhere minus on a job (well maybe I would). I lined it with a cheap dollar store lip liner. No need for a lipgloss as you can see, it has enough sheen to it.

My Favorite Item now

Hello lovelies,

Have you ever purchased and item that you just can't seem to put down and every minute it's in your hands because you love it so much or just like the texture, quality or even how it smells.

Well this favorite item is a beauty item and it's a lipgloss. N.Y.C Sugarcoated lipgloss is currently my favorite item now and I absolutely love this product. I purchased this at Target on clearance sale. I always saw it at drugstores but being a that I am not a lipgloss craze person, I never thought to try it. Well sales always get the best of me so I couldn't pass up this sale item.

I really love this product and will definitely be repurchasing.

N.Y.C Sugarcoated l/g is a lipgloss in a tin pan. It is a sheer pink color and has a minty cotton candy smell.




It's not long lasting but it's very moisturizing. The only dislike I have is that I hate applying any lip product that I have to dip my fingers in because I find it unhygienic. Otherwise I like everything about this product, It retails for $2.99 in drugstores but I purchased it for $1.37.


Be Fabulous!!

Please remember to enter my giveaway. Ends March 13, 2010.

My First MAC lipstick

Hello lovelies,

I hope everyone is doing well... I haven't been on a constant post but I 've been checking out your lovely blogs and post(s).
Now as from the title you've all figured out what I am gonna go into details about, this is my first MAC lipstick and it is the infamous Show Orchid. Yes I had to have it and I am now a proud owner of a MAC lipstick, that I absolutely love love love. This will not be last because I have already made my list.





(without flash)



Show Orchid is an amplified creme, from the MAC website it's described as a 'vivid hot pink'. It is a MAC pro color but it was recently released in the Riveting collection.




I have swatched it with some other colors from my lipstick collection. Brands such as 66 generic palette, Revlon and NYX.
