FOTD: Snatch by the Red lip series Look #1

Hello lovelies,

I hope is doing well. I have been watching America's Next Top Model and inspired by the red lip looks for each week photoshoot task. Can we say "fabulous"!! I love a red lip, from the deepest red to the sheer red shade, I will wear a red lip color all day. I decided to do a Red lip series and to start it off will be this FOTD. This red lip series features all the red shades I have in my Makeup collection. It will not be in any particular order, I pretty much store my red lipsticks according to the deepest shades and I will randomly choose a red lip color when I do my FOTD.

FOTD: #MakeupMondays

Hello lovelies,

Today's FOTD is a look inspired from Beyonce that I saw in a old magazine and have a photographic memory of but cannot find the magazine which I found it in. In other aspect, my reason behind naming this #MakeupMondays is based from Twitter Monday Trends by Beauty bloggers that use Mondays as Makeup day, similar in idea to #FollowFridays. If you aren't apart of Twitter, you are truly missing out. I won't go into an explanation of why because this post would possible go on about Twitter rather than my FOTD.

Here are pictures on my FOTD:

I have been collecting

Picture heavy

Hello lovelies,

It's been a while since I posted on my blog. I am so sorry for the lack of post again. I will get back to putting out some post for you and getting to all the post I promise.
So I have been purchasing some goodies from drugstore to MAC Venomous Villains to Sephora
Let's get right into it.



Drugstore
This isn't my full drugstore haul has I had purchase some Wet N Wild cosmetics when Kmart had a week where it was BOGOF. Let's just say I didn't hold back. But that will be another post at another time. Anyways I want to share with you some new products from Wet N Wild but under the Fantasy Makers label. These specific label products always come out when it's near to Halloween. Heres are pictures of the items and swatches.



Fantasy Makers 
- Glitter cream quad
- Lipsticks: black & red

- Liquid liner glitters: purple, teal, green

MAC Venomous Villains


From the MAC VV collection I had my eyes on 2 things: Toxic Tale l/s & The Dark Magic mineralized e/s. I will be going back for Bite of An Apple blush. I already own Violetta l/s so I didn't need it from the collection. The red l/s and the dark burgundy l/s was dupeable from my stash so I didn't get them. The other eyeshadows didn't capture my attention or wooed me.

L-R: NYX Femme l/s, MAC Toxic Tale l/s & WnW Coraline l/s

Be fabulous!!
