Happy snow day! Today I wanted to give you all my take on Rimmel’s line of liquid lipsticks, Provocalips. I purchased two of these, Make Your Move and Heart Breaker (which I haven’t tried yet). Rimmel Provocalips: Make Your Move

Just showing you all what these look like. I plan on using one or both this weekend. FYI, I had to scrub my arm to remove these so they seem to have pretty good staying power. I personally can’t wait to try Juicer! Rex: Black drenched with multiple shades of blue glitter. Juicer: Bright true yellow with satin finish. ColourPop Eyeshadow in…

This look is featuring Make Up For Ever Aqua Rouge in Burgundy. Man do I wish I was a vampire. Everlasting beauty. Immortality. Flight. Super strength. Compulsion (glamouring). The only drawback is that you have to feed on human blood. But that might just be an acquired taste. I’m sure I’d get used to it as a vampire. Oh– and…

I am probably one of the boldest dressers in my office. Dress code is business casual (most days I just go full-on business because I like to dress up) and I spent a small fortune on a new wardrobe once I moved here and found out that there are 4 seasons (sarcasm and shade mixed with a tinge of regret).…

Happy Friday! I just wanted to go ahead and show the other Lippie Stix I purchased from ColourPop, Fetch ($5.00). I had the same experience I did with the previous color, Yasmin. The waxy appearance on the lips, and the pasty look it gives me when I use it as a full lipstick. These photograph well but let me tell…

I totally wanted to love these. The ColourPop Lippie Stix ($5.00) look highly pigmented and they are super affordable. Yasmin is described as a full coverage, electric coral matte lip. On me, it was matte, but the color didn’t do anything for me. As far as application, it applied like a crayon. Yes, a wax crayon is what it reminded…

I just can’t get enough… I just can’t get enough… This is Kat Von D. Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in Outlaw ($19.00). If I had my way, I’d get more of these, but I need to chill out. I went into the store (Sephora) to see what the difference was between Outlaw and Underage Red. From what I could tell (and…

I can’t get enough of these liquid lipsticks from Kat Von D. I wasn’t sure that L.U.V. would show up nicely on me but I was more than pleasantly surprised to find that it did. I love how unique the colors in this collection are and that they look great on ladies of all shades. SEE MORE LIQUID LIPSTICK POSTS…

Yeah, you saw that right. I thought this was some kind of joke when I saw it on the Bloomingdale’s website. I even laughed out loud. People stared. But no… it’s real. I did not imagine it, and you aren’t either. You saw that right. 32.01 oz of Flowerbomb, likely one of the most popular and sexiest fragrances I have…

What you’ll need: Concealer: whatever you generally use. I prefer something with a pan as they usually last longer. Concealer brush: use a brush more stiff and pointy rather than fluffy. Setting/foundation powder: a pressed setting powder is best for this. Powder brush: anything you already have and fluffy. Hairspray: whatever you have around; this can be any type of…

Every month, without fail my body goes through hormonal changes and my skin will start to break out. Ladies, I’m sure you know what I am talking about. I try to pay close attention to my skin around this time before I get actual pimples. Since I have super oily skin, I usually apply some kind of mask, or make…

It’s the most wonderful time of the year…! And the most stressful! As the year was winding down, I kept getting the question, what do you want for Christmas, and at work, we did Secret Santa and I had to figure out some items that I wanted. This was the first year where I initially thought, meh… there’s nothing I…

I want these in every color. I’m putting two more into my cart as we speak… The Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick is superior to all others! I love it, I love it, I love it! Have I mentioned that I love it? A lot of people stay away from liquid lipstick because it’s drying and when it starts…

So far, I am very pleased with Topshop’s cosmetics line. I was looking for a new nude lip product and Topshop’s Lips in Mink ($12.00) does the trick for me. For me, this is a true nude. I usually apply lip balm before I put anything on my lips, but I tried this lipstick with and without lip balm and it…

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all??… so I finally tried out the double-ended Tony Moly Crystal Lovely Eyes Eyeliner I bought from the haul in Annandale. I don’t know what took me so long to try this out. I reckon my wardrobe doesn’t really include items that would go well with this eyeliner. I don’t…

I have a love-hate relationship with this Make Up For Ever Aqua Liner. I purchased this one a while back in Mat Black ($23.00). I thought I would totally fall in love with the felt-like tip of the eyeliner pen. Overall, I don’t find myself loving this product until it has dried on my lid.

Happy Friday! I think after a day of overindulgence, something to make yourself feel much better, less guilty, and refreshed would be a good exfoliatin’! Ardell Frutique’s Papaya Enzyme Exfoliating Gel (~$15.00) has been a part of my skincare regimen for a little over a year. The first time I used it, I thought wow, my face feels so smooth!

I recently received this as a sample. I had no idea that this product had been out for quite some time. Nevertheless, I like it. I’m not in love with it—but I like it. It seems that it only comes in one color: Black Honey. This product is described as follows: Not quite lipstick, not quite lip gloss but works…

Nars Almeria Blush ($30) is described as tan-rose and it is spot on. It’s very much buildable and easy to apply. That said, this is my new go-to blush for the remainder of fall and all of winter! When I first started applying it, I thought, well this is barely even going on, but then I realized how buildable it…
