Bringing Out the Beauty

Got my Eyeko.com Haul from the Uk yesterday. It actually got here pretty fast and is cheaper than buying the products stateside. So, I took some pictures and posted some swatches. I will briefly describe my initial experience with the products. I haven’t full used them as of yet. All the items I ordered are [...]

I finally got The Vanity by Tarte at Sephora. I had planned to order it online, but just went in and picked it up. I suppose I got lucky, since they only had 2 in stock. I also had to restock on CG Lash Blast, which is my FAVE drugstore mascara. It just lengthens my [...]

I finally received the creme liners from MAC Pro today. I haven’t applied the eyeliners to the lashline, but will tomorrow. The pots are the same size as the MAC eye shadows, but sit deeper into the pot. (the pot has no eyeshadow pan, so is deeper) I swatched both creme liners dry and wet [...]

I headed out to the MAC store this morning to see the new collection. For some reason I was not wowed by most of the collection. The first items I ran to were the beauty powders.  The beauty powders were my favorite part of the MAC Red She Said collection. I picked up Stark Naked, [...]

Today’s visit to the MAC store was a fun one, but to my surprise I bought less makeup than I thought I would. The Cult of Cherry quads have to many repeat eye shadows, so I was only motivated to buy one quad. For some reason I keep wanting to call this collection cherry culture.

Today, I quickly went to MAC to get some Blot powder. The MA told me Starflash was out and available for purchase. I was all excited, but honestly did not have time to stay there and buy products today. Too many people. :(  Either way, I went by the eye shadows and swatched them on [...]

So, how about them eye shadows? Just.. so.. many.. colors to choose from. The eye shadows like the blushes are soft and velvety. The color is very vibrant and intense for most of the eye shadows. I can just imagine what they will look like used wet. Most are a little bit  messy when getting [...]

So what have you guys bought? I went to MAC early this morning to take a look at the new collections. There is definitely something for everyone, especially if you love mineralized products. As much as I love MAC I have been trying to budget lately. Just so many collections coming out, practically back to [...]

Finally! I was able to take a trip to MAC and check out the Cool Heat Collection. I got some swatches, but wish they showed up a bit better. I have similar e/s colors so won’t be going all out on this collection. However, if you are new to makeup or MAC the [...]

I was going through my makeup today and decided to do some lipstick swatches. I do not own many lipsticks, since I am more of a lipgloss/lipglass type of gal. I like yummy smelling stuff and shine. I have also included a pic showing the lipsticks from the MAC student kit (uncapped) along with [...]
