Fall is nearing or is the Olympics wind blowing my way... lol!! Best wishes for TeamUSA and also my birth country TeamJA. May the athletes be their best in each category of sport they undertake. This isn't a "rep your country" makeup look but I'm having the urge for bright colors in my makeup looks lately. This look reminded me of burnt leaves on the ground when it's Autumn. Check out the look!

I hope all is well and in your favor. It's summertime and wouldn't be right to not give a GLAM summer look. With the trend being color blocking, I had to share my take on a summer color-blocking makeup look. ☀ Hope you sunshines enjoy this look and also their is a video tutorial ☀

It's been a minute but I have a video to share with you.... Check out the TAG video, the $20 Makeup Challenge. I had to partake in this challenge. See video & pictures below and find out if I prove myself that I can get a full face under $20 or I failed???
Neglect is a heck of a thing! I am on a no buy and with that it helps me to utilize what I have in my stash. Many of my good old beauty besties in my stash have been getting major love since my no-buy and that is a great thing. Suddenly I find myself loving these products over again. NYX has been a brand I started out with and in this look you will see why I really loved the products from this brand.

I realized I have been sleeping on my MAC eyeshadows lately. Haven't been giving them the most love especially since other brands are cruising up to their level. So I pulled out the MAC babies today and wallah!!! Some of the items are from their new collection Heavenly Creatures.
My apologizes for another blue look, I wanted to use the new mineralized eyeshadow in Sky because it's a pretty color but mines gave me all matte blue and not the mixture of that golden light blue.
