Copper Spring Makeup Look

Hello Everyone!

Spring is officially here (in the U.S. at least), which means it is time to incorporate fun, bright colors in your makeup. The Maybelline Color Tattoos in the Spring collection really inspired me, especially the copper shade. It was completely out of my comfort zone, but looked too beautiful not to play with. This look is very simple and can be used on a daily basis. Since I went a little bright with the eyes, everything else was very neutral and light.

- Benefit the POREfessional Primer
- Rimmel Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation
- NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer (Custard): Under eyes
- MAC Pro Longwear Concealer (NW25): Dark spots
- MAC Studio Fix (NC40)
- Sleek Face Contour Kit (Medium): Contour cheeks
- NYX Blush (Terra Cotta)

Eyes:
- Maybelline Color Tattoo (Caramel Cool): Lid
LORAC PRO Palette
- Sable: Crease; Lower lash line 
- Garnet: Outer 1/3 of lid

Wet n Wild - Fergie Collection

Hello Everyone!
 
As most of you may know by now, Wet n Wild released the Fergie cosmetics collection. The range includes lipsticks to eyeshadows and everything in between. Since I already love Wet n Wild I decided to try a couple products from this collection and see how I liked them.
 
Wet n Wild - Fergie Collection

Photo Op Eyeshadow Palette - Desert Festival

Old School Glam

Fuchsianista

Left - Old School Glam
Right - Fuchsianista

Desert Festival
 
The Wet n Wild Fergie lipsticks are all a creme formula. There are ten different shades that range from nude to a blackish color. I opted for two colors that I normally wouldn't go for, but thought might look nice. Old School Glam is an dark orange shade while Fuchsianista is a fuchsia color with a hint of metallic blue/purple. These colors are absolutely beautiful. They are extremely pigmented and super creamy. They feel amazing on the lips due to the vitamins and minerals to keep lips soft, smooth, and kissable all day. What I love most about these lipsticks are long they last. They tend to lightly stain the lips and you only need one application to last most of the day. There is no taste or smell which I enjoy very much.
 
Price: $3.49
 
When it came to the eyeshadow palettes I went with the one that had more colors I would wear more often. These palettes are available in four different combinations of which I chose Desert Festival.In this palette there are two mattes, two shimmery and one shimmery/glitter shades. The lightest shade is a Cappuccino-Champagne shimmery color that I love so much all over the lid. Beside that one is a matte orange color that I haven't been brave enough to try just yet. Then there is a beautiful gold shimmery shade. Next to that one is a black shade with a hint of gold shimmer/sparkle. In the center of the palette is a matte dark brown shade for the outer "V" of your eyelid. These eyeshadows are super pigmented and creamy. They are easy to blend and don't crease or flake. They last such a long time and have a satin-smooth finish to them.
 
Price: $4.99
 
Overall I have very much enjoyed this collection and look forward to trying different colors and products.
 
Hope you enjoyed this review :)

5 under $5 - October

Hello Everyone!
 
Recently I went on a bit of a drugstore haul picking up products I had never tried. Some of these are new and some not so new, but they still are amazing products.
 
5 under $5 - October

 
1. Covergirl Eye Enhancers 4-Kit Shadows (260 Coffee Shop): I have really been loving this little palette for the Fall. The colors are very warm and work great together. These are not chalky and very pigmented. Having one of these is great since you have all that you need for an eye look. I use the white under the brow bone and inner corners to brighten my eyes. I then apply the gold shade all over my lid and the bronze color in the crease. Lastly, I apply the dark brown in the outer crease to make a lightly smokey look.
 
Price: $4.84

 
2. Wet n Wild Color Icon Blusher (Berry Shimmer): I know talk about this product alot, but I just really love it. The color is a beautiful color for Fall. It is extremely pigmented so a light touch is required for these. Like the name implies it is a shimmery blush, but not a strong shimmer.
 
Price: $2.99

 
3. Rimmel London Stay Glossy Lip Gloss (Captivate Me!): There is nothing worse than a sticky lip gloss. I am in love with these Stay Glossy lip glosses. They aren't sticky (obviously) and they last a long amount of time. The best thing is that they don't dry out the lips once they fade. This color has shimmer in it, but there are 18 available shades to choose from so you are bound to find one that you love.
 
Price: $3.99

 
4. e.l.f. Eyelid Primer - Most of the time I will use a cream eyeshadow base, but when I don't I love using this primer. It dries to a matte finish which is great if you have oily eyelids. It has a slight tint which is good if you have darker eyelids or visible veins like I do. This helps to make my eyeshadow last longer and prevents creasing.
 
Price: $1.00

 
5. Rimmel London Scandaleyes Long Wear Waterproof Eyeliner (Black) - I love liquid eyeliner, but sometimes I don't have to patience or time to attempt to put it on. I highly recommend this eyeliner to anyone. It is so creamy and pigmented that it gives an almost liquid eyeliner look. It does not tug on the eyelid and can be blended out for a more natural look. If you have not tried this, then you are surly missing out!
 
Price: $3.97
 
Hope you enjoyed this post :)

e.l.f Disney Villains Look Book

Hello Everyone!
 
Like most 90's kids, I am a huge Disney fan. I actually get called Pocahontas by some people I know because of how much they think I look like her. When I saw that e.l.f. had released Disney Villains look books I just couldn't resist myself in buying one.
 




 
There are four different look books inspired by the Disney Villains Ursula, Cruella de Vil, Maleficent and the Evil Queen. I opted for the Cruella de Vil look book, but not necessarily because she is my favorite villain or anything. I actually don't like any of the villains, but I chose this one because it had eyeshadow colors that I preferred to use.
 
Inside you will find a lengthening and defining mascara, an eyeliner pencil, liquid eyeliner, eyelid primer, lip color, shadow brush and eyeshadow palette with six different colors. On the left side of the book you will find a little tutorial to make a Cruella de Vil inspired day look, while on the right side you can find a tutorial for a night look. The packaging is simply adorable and really brings back memories from my childhood. e.l.f. eyeshadows are some of the most inexpensive, good eyeshadows at the drugstore. They are super pigmented and really easy to blend.
 
 This is just a great concept for Halloween and I am so glad that e.l.f. decided to make these. These look books are available at Walgreens for $9.99 for a limited time. Make sure to go pick one up and bring out your own personal villain within (please just don't try to put a curse, or kill anyone).
 
Hope you enjoyed this post :)
Who is your favorite Disney Villain?

Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous

Hello Everyone!
 
After a while of refusing to give into the hype of this product, I finally gave in. The only reason why I didn't want to try this foundation was because I already have so many others that I love and use. For some odd reason I thought I would just try this out and see what everyone was talking about.
 
 
Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3 in 1 Foundation
 
Covergirl claims that it has: Lasting power of a primer, coverage of a concealer, and blendalbility of a foundation in one. Shine free.
 
Because my skin is slightly acne prone I find it difficult to find primers that will not cause minor breakouts. There's also an issue with my skin tone. I've been told many times before that it is rather unique and at times is difficult to color match. Taking these factors into consideration, I picked up the color 855 in Soft Honey and it seems to match my skin tone pretty closely. I can honestly say that I completely understand what all the hype was about this foundation.
 
This foundation really helps to smooth out any lines that I have on my face and makes my pores look less visible (and I have really big pores around my nose area). This foundation also helps to protect my skin from the sun since it has SPF 20 in it. This is a great cover for my hyperpigmentation that I have which tends to be really dark and diffult to conceal. It is very easy to blend and to work with. One pump is all that you need because a little goes a long way with this foundation. The coverage is medium with about half a pump, but can very easily be made into full coverage with a whole pump.
 
The packaging is great since it is glass and has a pump like I have already mentioned before. Because of the primer in the foundation you can confidently wear this all day without fear of it wearing off. For under $10 at most drugstores you can get an amazing foundation that is worth all the hype that it is getting.
 
Hope you enjoyed this post :)
Is there anything that you would like me to review?
What do you think of this foundation??

5 under $5 - September

Hello Everyone!
 
As you might have noticed by now, I am a huge drugstore makeup fan. In the past couple of years drugstore brands have really stepped up their game with their products, giving higher-end products a run for their money. You might be surprised at some of the amazing products that you can get for a little amount of money.
 
Since I am always buying drugstore makeup to try, I figured I would do the 5 products under 5 dollars once a month. New products are constantly being released and this is a great way for me to show you some of my favorites.
 
September 5 under $5 Favorites

Wet n Wild Eyeshadow Trio - Enlisting for Beauty
 
Shocker to see a neutral palette I know haha! I have been completely loving Enlisting for Beauty this month. This is part of the new Tough Girl collection from Wet n Wild. Now for most trios I wouldn't use all the colors together since they wouldn't look very nice, however I love using all of these colors together. Wet n Wild eyeshadows have some amazing eyeshadows. They are really pigmented and are not chalky what so ever. They are just a great quality for a great price. This trio is available at Walgreens for $2.99, but I picked it up on sale for just $2. These are simply a bargain that you should definitely give a try.
 

Jordana Twist & Shine Moisturizing Balm Stain - Cranberry Crush
 
I won't go into so much detail since I have already done a review here, but I will say that this particular color is great for Fall. This is the color Cranberry Crush. The darker colors of this collection tend to stain the lips a bit more than the lighter colors, which is similar for most balm stains. This is available at Walgreens for $2.99.

Rimmel London Stay Matte Long Lasting Pressed Powder - Transparent
 
This product may not be a surprise to you since it has been mentioned pretty much everywhere, but it is simply a great product. The Stay Matte powder is available in a selection of shades, but I much prefer to get the Transparent one. This is a great product to just throw in your makeup bag or handbag and take on the go. It is the perfect touch up powder to help eliminate shine. This is available at most drugstores for $3.97. 

NYX Blush - Mocha
 
Oh my goodness you guys, NYX is available at Target! I couldn't believe my dark brown eyes when I first saw the brand at the store and I almost had a heart attack. I may have went a little wild, but the closest store next to me that sold NYX was over an hour away from where I live so I was really excited. Anyways, this is one of their blushes in Mocha. It is a matte pinky, neutral color and is beautiful for everyday use regardless of the season. This is available at Target for $4.99.

NYC Smooth Skin Bronzing Face Powder - Sunny
 
This is another product that has been well talked about in the beauty community. It is a matte bronzer which is very difficult to find in the drugstore and anywhere in general. It gives you the perfect glow and doesn't go overboard with bronzing. By just sweeping this on the temples and cheeks it really completes a look and adds definition to your face. This is available in most drugstores for $3.49.

Top 3 (very top color is very similar to my skin tone sorry!): Enlisting for Beauty
4th: Cranberry Crush
5th: Mocha
6th: Sunny
Powder was transparent so I couldn't really take a picture of that haha!
 
Hope you enjoyed this post :)

Back to School Series: What's in My Makeup Bag

Hello Everyone!
 
Well I might have mentioned this before, but I am currently attending college or university as some of you may call it. Since I don't live on campus and actually have to drive about 20 minutes to get to school, I always have to make sure that I have everything that I will need with me.
 
Most of the time I won't head straight home after my classes and go grab a bite to eat with a friend or stop at the mall on the way home instead (horrible placement of a mall for a person who loves buying stuff haha!).
 
I don't like to take too much makeup with me and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone as well. School is a time to learn and interact with others, not to be in the restroom applying makeup. I do however think it is important to take some essentials just in case you may need them.
 
You may not use all of these products depending on your age or skin type so adjust it in a way that will fit you!
 
 
This is the makeup bag that I currently use. I love the pattern of it and the shape as well. These more square kind of shaped makeup bags allow for loads of space and are great to take with you if you are staying somewhere overnight and need to take more makeup than usual. I picked up this particular one in Charlotte Russe for around $7. They do have a smaller one that has a plastic cover (great for a pencil case) for around $5.

 
1. PINK Soft and Dreamy Body Mist - I find it super necessary to carry one of these with me all the time. Living in place that rarely has weather under 90 degrees and is extremely humid, you don't want to walk around smelling. These are small enough to throw in your backpack and spray yourself during the day for reassurance. This one was given to me as a gift, but may be bought in Victoria's Secret.
 
2. Oil Absorbing Sheets -  Since I've already mentioned the weather you must already know that my face tends to get more oily than usual during my classes. I only have about ten minutes between class so these are prefect to just quickly remove the oil of my face and make it look as if I just applied my makeup.
 
3. Lips -  I tend to always have more than one lip product with me. I don't really know why but I just can't leave the house with one and sometimes I leave them in my bag and magically find them later. Some type of lip balm is super important especially if you have dry lips. I love the Maybelline Baby Lips (Quenched) since it has SPF in it and the  Carmex Moisturinzing Lip Balm.
 
For actual lipsticks I like to always have two with me as well. It all usually depends on what I feel like wearing that particular day. I don't have a set one that I always have in my bag. On this day I had the Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Pink Pearl and Rimmel Show Off Lip Lacquer in Stellar (two complete opposites ha!). I also have a Wet n Wild lipstick in Cinnamon because I can't resist a red lip.
 
4. Face -  Again I don't like to apply too much makeup during the school day, but I do like to touch up if I'm going somewhere afterwards. Concealer is always to first thing to go when it comes to makeup. I think it is super important for me to carry one to cover-up any spots that may be visible at the end of the day. I am currently loving the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer in Medium.
 
I love to set the concealer with a powder. I don't go crazy with the powder, but just lightly sweep it all over my face and concentrate on areas where I put concealer. This is the MAC Mineralized Skin Finish in NC35. Most of the time I just leave my face alone after this, but sometimes I like to apply some blush. Now I don't do this all the time but if I do, I like to use something natural like the Natural Collection Blush Powder in Peach Melba.
 
5. Eyes - Because of the high humidity I find that my eyeliner tends to get a tad bit lighter by the end of my classes. If I want to I will usually just quickly go over it again lightly to make me look a little bit more done-up. I am in love with the L'Oreal Super Slim Liquid Eyeliner, it is practically mistake proof.
 
I don't think my eyes are fully done until I have curled my eyelashes. Mine are naturally really dark, (pretty much black) and I love the way that they look curled. I'm not too sure what eyelash curler this is but just find one that you love and use it.
 
6. Hair - This technically isn't a makeup item, but it is just as important. I can't leave my house with out some hair grips and hair ties. You never truly know how your hair is going to look by the end of the day and having these make for a quick fix to a disastrous hair day.
 
Hope you enjoyed this post :)

August Favorites

Hello Everyone!
 
As we all know August has sadly come to an end. That means Summer is over (not technically) and that it is officially back to school time. Although I am a little sad that August is over I am excited to see what the rest of the year has in store for me.
 
 
I loved all of these products during the month of August and thought I would share them with you. Now some of these are a little newer than others (to me at least), but I loved them so much that I had to include them!
 

 
1. Now I know I have talked about these babies a heck of a lot, but I really love these cream shadows. Maybelline 24hr Color Tattoos are simply amazing. I am surprised at how much I actually use these and how I don't get tired of them. They are creamy and stay put all day. I don't plan on not mentioning them again so heads up haha!
 
 
2. This is one of the products that I received in my International Beauty Swap and I quickly fell in love. I finally understand why so many people in the U.K. rave about this product. The Bourjois Bronzing Powder (the chocolate bronzer) looks beautiful on my skin. It adds a bit of color to my face and the shimmer in it isn't over-powering. The best part is that it smells so delicious that you actually want to eat it, even though I recommend that you don't.
 
 
3. During the Summer I like to apply body mist more than perfume. I think that they are much lighter and sweeter which is perfect for the Summer time. Victoria's Secret has some of the best body mists to use during the Summer time. Pure Daydream is a sweet smell that isn't too sweet where you get a headache from it.
 
 
4. I had never tried a Jordana product before but they were having a sale on them at my local drugstore. This Jordana Blush Powder in Sandalwood is a beautiful natural blush for my skin tone. I used this on a daily basis for a quick everyday look.
 
 
5. During the month of August I had a serious obsession with pastel colors. From necklaces to nails, I was rocking these colors. I fell in love with the Maybelline Color Show Nail Polish in Green with Envy. It is a really pretty pastel green and very inexpensive.
 
 
6. For Summer makeup I like to go very natural looking. Since I do have naturally colored lips I have to actually buy darker than nude colored lipstick to look natural on my lips. The Natural Collection Moisture Shine Lipstick in Berry Sorbet is a slightly pinky nude on my lips (it may be a little deeper if you actually have nude lips ha!). This with my Rimmel Volume Booster Lip Colour in Tease on top was my go-to lip look in August.
 
 
7. Now this isn't just a August favorite, but more of a back to school favorite. In between classes I love to eat a little snack just to get me through the end of my classes. Instead of just buying a bag of chips I like to take one of these for a healthier snack. My favorite is the Quaker Chewy Granola Bar in Chocolate Chip. The chocolate really helps to give me a boost of energy and keeps me going until the end of my school day.
 
 
Hope you enjoyed this post :)

Color Tattoo Metal Collection

Hello Everyone!
 
I would like to start of by apologizing for the lack of blogging I have done this week. This was a rather hectic week for me since I had a lot going on at the same time. Some of you may know but I started my second year of University this week. Between trying to adjust my schedule for classes, trying not to get lost on campus, dealing with horrible weather and did I mention trying not to get lost, I didn't really have time to blog. However now that my first week is over I am much more comfortable in my classes and can restart my blogging as usual!
 
Another reason behind my lack of blogging was my anxiety. It has been much worse this past month or so and I am not too sure why. Dealing with all that I had to deal with plus my anxiety was rather difficult, but I am getting through it.
 
Well, let's get started!
 
Maybelline Color Tattoo Metal 24 hr Eyeshadows

Metal Collection

Left: Barely Branded (70)
Right: Inked in Pink (55)

Freckles on my hand LOL
 
I have already done a review on Maybelline's Color Tattoos here, but they recently released the Metal Collection which offered some new colors that I very much enjoyed. Since I like very neutral colors on my eyes, I only bought two of the new original Color Tattoos. In the Metal Collection I fell in love with these two new colors. Barely Branded (70) is a beautiful champagne color and Inked in Pink (55) is a pretty pink color (shocker haha!). I love using these two as bases for my eye and they really make my eye makeup look so much better. When I use Barely Branded I will either apply it all over my lid and then apply a very neutral color like Toast from Sleek on top, or I will use it in the inner corners of my eyes to brighten them. I love using Inked in Pink on lazy days when I just want a quick splash of color on my lids and just apply it all over.
 
The quality of these cream shadows is UHHMAZING! They stay on my lids all day and I don't have to worry about touching them up throughout the day. The packaging is perfect since the clear jar allows you to see what color you are getting and they are small enough to just throw in your handbag to take on the go. The price is very reasonable for the quality that you get from these products. They are around $6 and can be found in most drugstores.
 
Hope you enjoyed this post :)
Have you tried the Metal Collection?
What are your favorite cream eyeshadows??

Seven Deadly Sins of Makeup Tag

I thought this picture would be funny, but I just look lame (sorry).

1. GREED

What is your most expensive beauty product?
My most expensive beauty product was actually given to me, but it was the bareMinerals Original Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 15 (warm tan) which is $27. I really want another one, but it is difficult to find around where I live.

What is your most inexpensive beauty product?
My most inexpensive beauty product I have is my wet n wild Coloricon Bronzer (Ticket to Brazil) which I paid around $2 for. CVS was having a buy one get one 50% off sale so that made it come out to really cheap, but absolutely love it and use it almost everyday!

2. WRATH

What beauty product do you have a love/hate relationship with?
I have a major love/hate relationship with liquid eyeliner! I love the way that it looks on my eyes and when I apply it correctly. When I apply it wrong, I hate it. It is impossible to fix if it goes wrong and there really is no going back with liquid eyeliner. You have to be precise or suffer the consequences of horrible eye makeup.

3. GLUTTONY

What is your most delicious beauty product?
At the moment I would have to say my Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in 107. I love red lipstick and I think that it goes perfectly with my skin. It is just a beautiful lipstick that you just want to eat (I would highly recommend not doing so unless that's your thing, then good luck).

4. SLOTH

What beauty product do you neglect due to laziness?
I wouldn't say it is due to laziness, but I always forget to put on primer. It's just one of those things that I remember about when I'm half-way done with my makeup. Maybe it's the fact that I haven't found one that I completely love, but I just can't seem to put it at the top of my list on things I have to use.

5. PRIDE

What product gives you most confidence?
I'm very insecure when it comes to my skin due to my hyperpigmentation. I would have to say that concealer and foundation really help my confidence. I am able to hide what I am insecure about and be able to be a little less afraid of speaking to people face to face.

6. LUST

What product makes you feel most attractive?
I love me some red lipstick! I can't seem to have enough in my collection. I am trying to branch out into using different colors like coral and pinks, but red lipstick will always be my favorite no matter the time of year.

7. ENVY

What beauty product would you like most to receive as a gift?
Like I said before I would love to get another bareMinerals Original Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 15 (warm tan). It was my favorite and I just love it. I have never tried any YSL lipsticks either so I think that would be a nifty gift as well :)


Hope you enjoyed this post :)
If you have done one, let me know! I would love to read your answers.
If you haven't, I tag you to do one! :)

Makeup for Beginners

I know that there may be some people that read my blog that are just beginning their journey in this makeup adventure. Now I by no means am a professional at makeup. I don't know every single thing about makeup and brands, but I do know a couple of things. I know what I like and I know the basics.
 
For people that are just starting their makeup collections or simply want to own the basics, I thought I would share this post with you.
 

 
This is the Sleek MakeUp i-Divine Palette in Au Naturel (601). It is a perfect beginners palette and I think that everyone should have one in their collection. Sleek has some of the most amazing eyeshadows and are truly my favorite. This is a palette with a combination of 12 matte and shimmer eyeshadows. It has colors to create a beautiful neutral eye and some to spice things up a bit. I use this palette more than any of my others because of how convenient it is. When I'm in a rush to go to school, I know that this palette has everything that I need in it.
 
This palette is also perfect for people that want to start a makeup collection, but don't want to spend too much money. This palette is $9.99 online and shipping is very inexpensive. The only downside to this is that this brand of makeup is only sold overseas. It has not yet hit the stores here in the U.S, but like I said shipping is very inexpensive.
 
Hope you enjoyed this post :)

Sleek Limited Edition ShowStoppers i-Divine Palette

When it comes to eyeshadow, I am more of a neutral girl. I tend to lean more towards browns and light colors for some odd reason. I don't know why, it's just something I've always preferred.
 
I was a little worried about this palette because some of the colors seemed to be out of my comfort zone, but I purchased it anyways. I must say that I am so very glad that I did.
 

 
This Sleek Limited Edition Showstoppers i-Divine Palette is just so beautiful to look at. Like most of Sleek palettes, this is a combination of matte and shimmery eyeshadows. The colors are so different, but come together to make an amazing palette. There is not one color that I don't like, or haven't used in this palette.
 
The quality of Sleek eyeshadows is unbelievable for their price. This palette was $9.99, which is super inexpensive since you are getting 12 eyeshadows and a large mirror. These eyeshadows are super pigmented and easy to blend. They aren't chalky or extremely powdery. These are some of the best eyshadows that I have ever tried and give high-end brands a run for their money
 
 
Hope you enjoyed this post :)
What are your favorite palettes?
Any questions, feel free to ask!
