FOTD: Feeling The Urban Vibe!

Hello beauties,


So I have been going through my stash and found some items that I haven't used in a while and decided why not do a look with these oldies but goodie products. If you recall Wet Seal the clothing store had come out with a makeup line namely: Urban Vibe and if I recall Keri Hilson was the spokesperson behind it. Well today's look features the baked eyeshadows from that line.

Products of the Week!

Hello lovelies,


This week have I got a deal for you, one of my product of the week items is just $1 in Target. Let me first introduce both products of the week which are ELF lipstick in Gypsy and Covergirl Amazemint lipgloss in Plum Craze. I love both products, both as been my go to item for the this week and the combination is pretty.
Nonetheless the ELF lipstick in Gypsy is a mauve plum color and only a buck in Target or on ELF.com .... Now can you beat a deal like that. The Covergirl lipgloss has a minty and refreshing taste and smell and also makes the lips tingle when applied. Check out these products and try the combination and tell me if you like.


ELF lipstick: Gypsy


ELF lipstick Gypsy & Covergirl Amazemint lipgloss: Plum Craze


L-R: ELF lipstick Gypsy & Covergirl Amazemint lipgloss: Plum Craze



A previous look wearing both products on the lips



Upcoming look wearing both products on the lips



Have you tried any ELF $1 lipsticks and what is your favorite one/combination?
