I had total FOMO with the Giorgio Armani Eye Tints ($39.00) the first time I saw them, but I thought they were just too pricey so I just lusted after and thought about them for a long time. Finally, one day I just said F it and picked up Green Iron, the one I have wanted since seeing them on…

Give me a reason to dress up and I’ll take it! Today, I bring to you my MOTD for St. Patrick’s Day. Of course, the theme is green! I used the Topshop Chameleon Glow in Changeling all over my lid, defined with Tease from the Naked 2 palette. I love how magical it looks; reminds me of a mermaid!

If you can believe it, I have a love/hate relationship with highlighters. I love looking at them but I strongly dislike people plastering them all over their face. The reason? Because I never see anybody in real life, walking around on the street like that. I do like the look of it when it’s done right. Everyone likes different things,…

You guys… I really love my Dior Addict lipstick. So when I heard they were coming out with lip lacquers, I kept my eyes and ears open. I haven’t tried them yet but I did have a chance to swatch them. Lay your eyes on these beauties! I chose Indie Rose, a strawberry pink, and Sulfurous, a sexy red with…

Who doesn’t love a good taupe? After brown, for me it’s the perfect shade of shadow. I purchased Mally Beauty Shadow Stick in Over the Taupe some time last year, thinking it was the one I had seen her demonstrate on QVC. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn’t (I think it was though). I remember it being so sparkly and pretty. Of course, that’s…

Top Row: Blackened Black Clay, Blackened Blue Clay, Blackened Brown Clay Bottom: Metallik Platinum, Metallik Pewter, Metallik Rust Side: Air-lite Setting Powder

As my second makeup sponge, I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with the Real Techniques Miracle Diamond Sponge ($9.99). The only other makeup sponge I tried was an off-brand sponge I picked up at Marshall’s. It was awful. Just awful. One of the reasons I hated the off-brand one was because I could apply the makeup with my fingers…

The lust I had for the Nars Unfiltered I Palette ($59.00) was so real. When it became available over the Sephora VIB sale, I was like, yessssssssss must have it. But then it sold out and my life abruptly ended. Well, maybe not that serious but I was pretty bummed out about it. And then, behold! It came back around…

The Essence Light Up Your Face Luminzer Palette is $5.99 and worth every penny. When I first saw the palette on Ulta, I’m not gonna lie, I gave it the side-eye. I suspected it might not wear on me long and that my oily skin would slay it in a matter of hours. I also thought it would just be…

I know I said I was going to chill on liquid lipsticks, but there was something about the Burberry Liquid Lip Velvets that I just couldn’t get my mind off of. It might have been the high marks and praise they received from Temptalia, or just the fact that I don’t think I own any makeup from Burberry and thought…
