FOTD: Electric Chaos

Hello lovelies,

Hope all is well!.... I had the chance of taking advantage of the VIB discount that Sephora had last month and got the Urban Decay Electric palette. If you have been following my blog you know I am all for bright, electric colors so I had to have this in my collection. Now I won't go into a in-depth review of this as there are so many reviews of the palette. However, if you are makeup enthusiast and collector, you definitely need this in your collection. Here is my first look using this palette.

FOTD: Sage Sensation

Hello Lovelies,


Hope all is well.....Today I grace you all with a look using the Coastal Scents 252 palette, this palette is the smaller shadows of the Coastal Scents Hot Pots singles. The Coastal Scents Hot Pots are inexpensive alternatives to MAC eyeshadows and very affordable. To see what colors I would love, I decided to get the 252 Ultimate palette which which is smaller eyeshadow version in palette format  of all the Hot Pots combined. I really like the shadows in this palette, they are also super pigmented and blend able with a  good eye base. Here is my look using the palette.

FOTD: Comme Le Printemps

Hello Beauties,

If you know me personally I love vintage accessories and artistic pieces. I am a colorful nerd in this world. I never limit myself when it comes to color. People will tell you, you can't rock this bright color with that other bold color, best believe I am one who will do just that rock mix match bold colors with each other and give the 'I don't care' or better yet 'calm the f*&#down' face. Today I embrace "comme le printemps" translation "like spring" cause c'est un monde différent (it's a different world).

It's A Different World!!

FOTD: Before Twilight

Hello Beauties,

I did a purchase with TKB Trading about couple weeks ago. They have awesome Micas/ pigment samples baggies for incredible cheap prices with great quantity to mix eye shadows and other beauty products. I have been itching to use one of my TKB Trading Micas with my Maybelline 24hr Color Tattoo for Summer 2013 ( there is a post with swatches on these Limited Edition Color Tattoo ).

FOTD: Kiss of Life Prom Series Pt. 2

Hello Beauties,

This is my second part of the Prom series I started. This look depicts a more pop of color for the ladies who don't want to be all neutral but more on the bold side. If you are wearing green, pink or purple, you could opt out the blue in my look for any color that coordinates with your dress. Also I went in for a red lip which red is a color that is sexy and universal. I would suggest if you wish to wear red to go for a matte or semi matte color.

Hello beauties,

Rimmel Kate Moss lasting Finish lipsticks as stated on the Rimmel website are  " Sumptuously Rich Matte colour with a sublime comfort. Ruby Powder enriched formula. Intense velvet colour all day! "

There are ten shades available and I have seven in my stash. Some of the formula varies, in my opinion some feel rather like a cream and others a semi matte. Rimmel states that they are matte but when I think of matte, I think of a drying texture and these are not so. Some colors glide on like butter, whilst others take more application to get an intense opacity. None the less I really like some the colors but I wish there was more color varieties. Kate Moss please if your reading, we need purples and maybe throw in a orange shade too. I love the smell of these as compared to the old lipstick smell from the lasting finish collection. The smell is more on the vanilla side that is very much bearable.
