FOTD: Plum Orchid

Hello Beauties,


I am astonished at how drugstore brands such as Maybelline, Wet n Wild, Covergirl, Milani and Black Radiance... yes Black Radiance are bringing their A game in the makeup world with their products. move over high end such as MUFE, Inglot, YSL, Urban Decay and MAC.
Black Radiance has come with some new lipsticks and I must say I am very impressed that I feel the need like as with Milani to stock up on my favorite colors. You know like what you do when MAC has a limited edition lipstick released that you love and know you'll be pissed off if you don't get two or three back-ups of it. That's the feeling I am getting with these drugstores brands because these items are moving swiftly off the shelves and very hard to find.

FOTD: Intricate Lover

Hello beauties,


You ever bought an item because you fell in love with it at first sight but you out it away because you don't want to ruin it much less use it because the thought of consuming it and you may never see it again taunts you. Well this me with my MAC limited edition lipstick. I tell myself I will wear them out but I tend to draw myself to the permanent ones more than the LE cause I don't want to fall in love to consume it enough to me having no more of it. Do you have that feeling with anything you own??

FOTD: L.A. Colors Sand Dune

Hello Beauties,


I know you all thought I was completely done with my L.A. Colors eyeshadow trio series. Well I still have a few more trios left in my stash to do looks on and today I will share Sand Dune which is one of the most complicated trios to do a look for. Reason being is the the colors don't come together, they have a blue silver shade, a bronze shade and a charcoal shade which don't compliment each other. I tried my best to create something subtle.

LIPS

I don't know about you all, but I will put this look in my fail section, definitely not feeling it. Will try and re-do it soon with more depth.
