MAC Cosmetics Smoke Signals

Smoky eyes, done right, can look gorgeous. Although I have seen some people who just don’t get it and either look like a racoon or as if they have just been punched in the eye. MAC Cosmetics makes it easy for anyone to get it right with their limited edition Smoke Signals collection.
Smoke Signals comes […]

Jelly Pong Pong Chic Shine

I’m loving Chic Shine by Jelly Pong Pong. It is a gele and matte cheek/lip pair meant to give you a playful yet sophisticated look. I received all three colors in the collection: Brazillian (earth tones), Ballerina (pink) and I’m in Love (mauve).
The matte color looks great on your cheeks, while adding the gele gives […]

Makeup Palettes

I don’t know about you, but I am lazy.
As a mom, most times I don’t have time to sift through my huge collection of colors to decide which ones to mix and match and which lipgloss or lipstick would make the perfect combination. I just need to slap it on and run before someone is […]

Mix and Match Makeup

I’m not one to stick to a particular brand and just about everyday I mix and match my makeup to suit my mood. I would find it inherently blaaaaahh to just do my face with just Este Lauder or Nars each day. How boring.
Some of my favorite mix and match products are:
* Lumiere Mineral Makeup’s […]

tarte Cheek Stains

So I finally got up the courage to inquire with tarte about their cheekstains. Many of you commented how much you loved them and I figured I should give them a try. My contact at tarte was also surprised that I have never tried them. I know I know, let’s not remind me how much […]

NYX Cosmetics Cream Rouge and Powder Blush

I received both NYX Cosmetic’s Cream Rouge and Powder Blush recently. The Cream Rouge came in that bright pink color shone here. I was a little nervous about using a color that looked like hot pink. However, I found that as I worked the color in and blended it with my other makeup, it seemed […]
