MAC's Korean Candy Sheen Supreme Lipstick

Aug 28, 2011

"Combining the colour impact of a Lipstick with the shine sheen of a Lipglass, Sheen Supreme creates the perfect hybrid - with no compromise. Lightweight, non-sticky, slick to apply and comfortable to wear. This is a must-have for all those who have craved this kind of fusion." <----yeah what they said!  I totally agree.  This lipstick is awesome.  Well Korean Candy is awesome.  I love the color and the shine that the lipstick gives.







MAC Sheen Supreme Lipstick
Purchased Shade:  Korean Candy (bright orange/red)
Available at MAC  $14.50 USD
Loves:  The color and shine
Hates: It really shows my lip imperfections which means that I definitely have to exfoliate my lips before application.

Nars Misfit Eye Shadow Duo

Aug 25, 2011

Love this!  Hey you'll.  Another day, another Nars haul.  I picked this bad boy up a couple weeks ago and forgot all about it which makes me a true makeup hoarder!  Recently I have been a little Nars obsessed and I don't think that obsession is going to end any time soon.  I hauled the Nars Misfit eye shadow duo because I love green eye shadow and I'm a little bit obsessed with finding the perfect light lid color and since this duo had a light beige color and a green color, I jumped on it.

Nars Eye Shadow Duo
Purchased Shade:  Misfit (ecru shimmer/ emerald shimmer)
Available at select retailers including Sephora & Nars $33 USD
Loves:  Everything! In some pictures more of the blue tones in the eye shadow creep through and I love that about it.
Hates: The beige side of the duo is easier to work with than the blue/green side but neither is difficult.  Again, Nars wins in my book!




Love This! MAC Shimmermoss Eye Shadow

Aug 15, 2011

Hey there!  Today's "Love This" moment is MAC's Shimmermoss Eye Shadow. 
This is one of my many neglected shadows that I have given a chance lately and I'm wearing it today.

Available at MAC
Price: $15

Product Spotlight - Tarte True Blood Natural Cheek Stain

Aug 7, 2011


I love the series True Blood and when I found out there was going to be a team up between the series and Tarte cosmetics, I was ecstatic.  I only purchased one item because I have never shopped from Tarte before and I have been on a major beauty budget as of late.  I decided to get the Cheek Stain and let me tell you, it is gorgeousness in a tube. 


Tarte for True Blood Limited-Edition Natural Cheek Stain
Available at select retailers including Sephora & Tarte
$30 USD
Loves:  It's just so gorgeous in the tube, I love that after it sets I don't feel it on my skin, I love how it is wearable
Hates:  Glitter was a little much on my cheeks and the color wasn't as vibrant as I thought it would be.

The sun really picked up the glitter and although it wasn't extreme, I'm not used to wearing glitter on my cheeks.

Full face with me wearing the stain on my cheeks.

I think I'm going to purchase some more things from Tarte because overall I enjoyed this cheek stain even with the glitter situation.
