New cuteness!

Hi ya dolls!! So Sephora got the new Hello Kitty product in, and you know I had to go get something from the collection! Now..I didn't get makeup..I'm trying my hardest to not buy any unnecessary makeup as I need to save money for my Miami Trip in March. So I got the Hello Kitty Hand held mirror and a super cute clutch bag!! 

Tada!! The back of the mirror is her face! 

This is the box the mirror came in

The front of the mirror
Super cute bow clutch! I ♥ bows! It's a beautiful metallic  sliver! And theres a cute bow zip pull! There is another clutch in this collection, but I liked this one best, because it's some what dressy and I want to use it when I go out 

The inside is lined with a silk like material. Its very soft! It's big enough for just the essentials when going out! lip gloss/lipstick,a small mirror, money, ID/credit cards, and phone!  

I can't wait to use my clutch! I'm saving it for my Miami trip! hehe And my mirror will be used mostly for when I do makeup on clients. 

Well thanks for reading beauties! I will post a makeup look soon! 
Until next time....toodles!!

elf Makeup remover cleansing cloths

Hello all! I wanted to rave about my current favorite makeup remover cloths! 


I got these elf makeup remover cleansing cloths sometime last year, when they were having a half off sale. It normally only cost $3,  but heck at $1.50 I couldn't resist! So I purchased just one so that I could try it out. My first impression: wow these things are pretty good!!! 




It comes in a foil like packaging and the opening flap is plastic and clasps closed which helps keep them sealed in so they don't dry up. It's pretty much similar to Macs makeup remover cloths. There are 20 cloths in one package. I feel as though they should give you a bit more in the package, say maybe 30? But again, for $3 I can't really complain! lol 
These lovely pre moisturized cloths really do get off all your makeup. I do have to rub a little extra hard when it comes to my mascara, as I always wear water proof mascara. But with a little effort, it does comes off. They are even infused with aloe Vera extract to help moisturize your skin!

click to see larger view

The directions on the back suggest rinsing with warm water after use. I recommended this as well, or simply follow with your daily face wash routine.. These really don't leave your face feeling greasy, so if you don't rinse you will still be fine.

Over all I really do love these very much! I love them so much, the last time I ordered them, I order 3 packs of em! I am now on my last one and will diffidently be ordering more soon! Go check them out here
Be aware: last time I checked, they were sold out of them! That's just how popular they are! So hurry and get yours! You have no excuse! They only cost $3! 

Thanks for reading everyone!

How to get long full beautiful lashes!




So I finally got to edit a video! Took me like 3 days to figure it out! lol And it's in slow motion....I couldn't figure out how to speed up the video without it cutting off parts of the video..so if anyone wants to explain it to me..that would awesome! lol

This video will show you how I achieve long and full lashes with out the use of falsies. Now I love the look of falsies, but sometimes I just don't feel like using them. So I whip out my Maybelline volumn' express and The falsies mascara! oh n yea..I totally mis-spelled Maybelline in my vid!And I just noticed I have another type-o..i spelled second..secog..ahahaha oopps! haha Sorry everyone! Guess I was in a rush to just finish the darn thing! lol
Well I hope you enjoy the video. Try it out and let me know if this works for you!

Todays look

Hey all! Wanted to post my makeup look for today! But 1st.....
I just noticed that I mistakenly deleted all the comments all you lovely beauties left me! little did I realize that selecting all and deleting..was actually going to delete them from my post! I simply thought it was something similar to an inbox and I was deleting everything in my inbox. WRONG-O! lol Well lesson learned. =( Never again..unless something needs to be deleted. So go leave me comments again! haha just kidding!

Now on to the real reason for my post! .....So yesterday I did a little splurging at VS and got me sale items..and a bronzer! I had to force myself not to buy makeup..but I couldn't help but pick this up!


Forgot to flip the picture! opps! oh well it still works! lol So here is the swatch of the bronzer!


Pretty right?

And here is my look for today! I call it Honey comb! I don't know why, but it was the first thing that came to mind! hehe I have done similar looks before.


I used my UD substainable palette once again. Colors used: Half baked all over lid, twice baked on outter edge of eye, ydk on crease, uzi & midnight cowboy rides again to highlight on my brow bone. And all in that order pretty much too! lol




And I used my bronzer today too! You can't really tell though. I also used a light amount of my Nars Oasis blush.


For my lips I used VS lipstick in Whisper followed by Mac lipgelee in Resort Life.
The VS lipstick hardly shows on my skin tone, so I have to use a gloss with it. Something with a bit more color and sparkle to it!

The key to eyeshadow application: blend blend blend!! Get rid of harsh lines and edges! And when using white to highlight blend even more! lol So many people ask me how I do my makeup so good.... My answer: practice and blending! The more you do it the more you learn the better you get at it! And you can learn something new all the time! Take tips and advice from others! I love looking at pictures of certain makeup looks and trying to recreate them. And creating my own looks even more fun! I also like watching youtube tutorials! Which I need to get back into btw....haha I really slowed down and basically have stopped because my other laptop can't seem to handle the editing programs I've gotten. Guess there isn't enough room for it. And my lil baby computer can't really handle it either! I'm currently trying to edit a small video on my netbook using Windows Live movie maker, but its so slow! ugh...hopefully I can figure something out..but if not...oh wells.

Well as always..thanks for reading!! Hopefully my pictures weren't too small for you to see. They were all taken with my cell phone camera!

Leave me comments...I won't delete them this time! haha ;)

Saw this on makeupjunkie88's blog and wanted to share it and also take the pledge too! You should take it too! =)



AS A KIND-HEARTED BLOGGER I PLEDGE TO:

  • Create, inspire, and admire rather than compete with fellow bloggers
  • Be understanding of each other-- in the blogging community, as well as in the world
  • Stay away from internet/blogging bullying
  • Speak my opinion freely, while still being mindful of other's feelings-- be tactful.
  • Make an effort--no matter how big or small the gesture, to spread kindness or joy to others
  • Acknowledge that I will make mistakes, (I am only human) but remember to learn from them
  • Know that at times I will post about the negative stuff in life, and maybe even some complaining (I am only human) but I will always follow up with something happy/positive too.
  • Believe that this world is a good place, filled with good people.

Purple & Gold

Hey loveies! I Wanted to post up some pictures of a purple and gold look I did some time ago using my Urband Decay Substainable palette!



I love this palette! It is a very sparkley palette and the colors are pretty vibrant! I had a picture of swatches but I don't know where it went! lol So on with my look!



For this look I used Flash all over my lid and thenused YDK and Midnight cowboy rides again on my crease. Then for highlight I used Uzi, although you can't really see it.


Yes those are my real lashes!! I like to use two diffrent types of mascara! I perfer Maybeline volume express and the falsies mascara


For my cheeks I used Nars Oasis


So there you have it my pretty purple and gold look! And no I wasn't going for a Lakers inspired look! =P
