Golden Cranberry Holiday Makeup Look!

Hello my beauts! ❤ Back again with an awesome dramatic ‘Holiday Party’ look! With Thanksgiving and Christmas around the corner, i’ve had my mind on something sweet.. Cranberries. I love my moms homemade cranberry sauce around these holidays and I also love cranberry, the color. Such a rich deepened berry red.. So festive! There are also lot’s of wild cranberries growing around where i currently live and it looks beautiful in the Wintertime, covered in white snowflakes. SO, That is where i pulled inspiration from today, hope you all enjoy. Let’s get right into it! 🙂

Here we have my basic shadow look. I have used Tarteist clay eyeliner to really give my eyes a dramatic & fun double winged liner look.. A long with my bold liner i used gold, champagne and a deep berry/cranberry/red color to achieve a festive Holiday Party-ready look. I mean, what’s more christmas-y than bubbly light champagne, tart cranberries & shimmering GOLD? 😉 Speaking of TARTE, this Tarteist Clay Liner is one of my absolute ***FAVORITE BEAUTY PRODUCTS*** out on the market right now! If you are a regular in the art of winged liner & confident enough in your skill, i need you to do me a favor and just order this and try it.. Do it for me! You will never ever want to SETTLE FOR, nonetheless TOUCH another liner formula again. This truly turns you into an artist, such easy and smooth application.. you will fall in love at first brushstroke. ❤

Here are the basic items i used to achieve this look flawlessly..

• FLOWER “About Face’ Liquid Foundation
• L’Oreal Infallible 16HR Pro Matte Powder Foundation
• MAC Mineralize Concealer-NW20

No lip color has been applied here yet, but i will show you how to make this even more presentable with two more simple & fast steps!

Add a tiny flick of black liner, a couple dabs of a creamy cheek lip and cheek chubby on both your cheeks & lips, and ta-daaa! 😉 You can amp it up even more with steps that will take you only a minute to do! Now you’re ready for the day with a fresh face. 😀

FLOWER Beauty Lip & Cheek Chubbys!

Hi ladies! ❤ Just wanted to do a quick review on a few of these gorgeous Lip & Cheek Chubbys by FLOWER beauty. I have three colors here today to show you, i own a few more and they are all very pretty & wearable and oh-so-creamy! Keep reading if you’re interested 🙂

KM1- Leaves a beautiful healthy peachy/apricot glow on your face. This on is is very natural looking and applies nicely on your cheeks. Gorgeous lip color too.

HL3- This one is a honey bronze highlighter chubby, this is a gorgeous honey colored shimmery shade that looks stunning as a bronzer for me.

KM3- This one is a VIBRANT hot pink color, i like to use this on my lips most of the times but i could see this as a beautiful cheek color for warmer skin tones if dabbed on lightly.

Here are some swatches.. (i applied more than necessary for your cheeks to really show texture and color more clearly)

They really behave like a smooth cream blush. Which is also a great texture for the lips, i feel like they’re moisturizing too. These are just swatches, there will be NO chunky spots once the color is all blended out onto your cheeks it leaves such a beautiful, even, glowing color. 

Here are some more beautiful colors by FLOWER:

Buy yours HERE!

This deep berry plum color is PERFECT for Autumn! I am in love with this shade.

This one is gorgeous too, it’s a beautiful dusty rose color this would be amazing on the cheeks!

❤

These are a definite must have/try if you have not already! You will be pleased 🙂 I love these guys, they are small but fat, but can be tossed in your purse or even a small clutch. Voila! Lips and cheeks are covered for the night. IN LOVE 😉

Pink and Playful Makeup Look!

So this afternoon i decided i wanted to do something fun and PINK for you all! I created one eyeshadow look, and used a couple different lip colors to show you how to quickly & easily change up this look and see what this would look like with different shades of lippies! 🙂 It can be transformed into a bridal event look, a night on the town look, a lovely date look and anything in between! ❤

This is my girly sweet pink eyeshadow look, with no lipstick applied at all here. I have naturally pink lips as you can see though so this gives you an idea of what this eye would look like with a nude/pinky or mauve type lip.

Here’s the same eyeshadow with a bright pastel  & vibrant orange lip! This is obviously more of an extreme pink and peach combo for going out or partying, maybe heading to a concert.. something of that nature. 😉

These are all of the products i used, and the lipsticks in this particular “going-out” look are MAC’s “Sushi Kiss” in the middle of my lips and Milani’s “Sweet Nectar” on the outer parts!

• Milani “Sweet Nectar”
• MAC “Sushi Kiss”
• MAC “Saint Germain”
• MAC Mineralize Concealer NC20
• MAC Strobe Liquid Lotion
• MAC Moisture SPF 15 Foundation in NC22
• Mally Base Shadow/Primer (not shown above)

• L.A. Colors Shadow Palette “Tease” (the pink shade)
• FLOWER Bronzer/Blush Duo in “Glow Baby Glow”
• L’Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow 24HR in “Iced Latte”

• Neutrogena Facial Lotion for Sensitive Skin (always use this on a clean face before applying my makeup)
• L’Oreal Infallible 16HR Powder in “Porcelain”
• Almay Liquid Black Liner
• Lancome Paris High Definition Mascara Black

Here is the eyeshadow look with a bright pastel pink lippie paired with it. This one is MAC’s “Saint Germain.” This one is still vibrant but the lighter pink lip softens it up a bit for a daytime more formal event.

Thanks for reading ladies! Leave thoughts and comments for me ❤ Love hearing from you all!

Makeup HAUL!

Hello girls! I haven’t been feeling very well lately but i still wanted to post something tonight for you all<3 Recently my boyfriend took me out and wanted to spoil me a little since i haven’t been feeling too hot, so i bought…. A bunch of makeup! For myself and YOU! I’ll be doing a giveaway next month with some of the stuff i picked up, i’ll show you what i bought for us! 😀

Here is what i purchased for my October giveaway for one of you lovely ladies!

I’m thinking this one will be International.. Two of FLOWER’s Powder to creme blushes, in TT1 & TT2 (a bright pink and a muted coral color.) A beautiful eyeshadow chubby in a gorgeous deep royal purple shade, and most likely some more stuff i pick up from here to the date the giveaway will start. So keep checking for it 😉

Now here are a few things i picked up for myself to play around with:

Two Hard Candy Highlight & Contour Cheek Duo’s. LEFT: Angel Face RIGHT: Island Glow

These guys are so gorgeous in person just as a swatch. The colors are so sheer and picks up light beautifully. I have a picture but it really doesn’t do it much justice, you would just have to trust me on this one. I am so eager to use these, i have no doubt they will be gorgeous on the cheekbones. Keep look out for a post on these exclusively!

❤

Let’s move onto these L’Oreal Infallible 24 HR Pressed Eyeshadows in “Iced Latte” & “Perpetual Purple,” and a beautiful Infallible Lipstick in “Everlasting Plum“…

These shadows are GORGEOUS! SO pigmented and SO soft, they feel like a pillowy cushion inside the jar. I would definitely recommend these to all of you as they have an array of amazing colors, and the best part is that they behave like the Maybelline color tattoo creme shadows. They are not creamy at all, but they last forever. I have swatches of these below with the other eyeshadows i purchased.

Now the L’Oreal Infallible lipstick! I’m in LOVE. This is such a fall color i cant even begin to tell you, it is a deep smashed berry color that looks SO dark in the tube but just comes to life as soon as you apply it! It is like a bright orchid purple, it is stunning. This would be beautiful on any skin tone. 

“Everlasting Plum“

It has a gorgeous bright berry/fall tone that makes this color very special and a must have for Autumn.

❤

Now, i have some more stuff from FLOWER!

Starting with beautiful eyeshadow palette in “Eye-sea-you” and a Blush/Bronzer Duo in “Glow Baby Glow.”

These colors in ALL of these pans, the shadows and the blush/bronzer, are just insanely soft and smooth to the touch. They feel like velvet. This formula is amazing and the colors are beautiful! Let me show you some swatches, the first two colors are the L’Oreal shadows from earlier.

The two horizontal swatches at the top are the blush & bronzer duo.

---

As you can see all of these colors are stunning & unique. That green shadow from the FLOWER palette is like a mossy gold color, i can’t wait to play around with these palettes. These are all just straight up swatches with no primer or anything, so with primer these colors will be much more vibrant and pop! I will definitely be doing a makeup look with these soon. So be sure to check it out and comment!

❤

I picked up this gorgeous melon colored lipgloss from FLOWER as well:

FLOWER High shine lip lacquer “Give Peach A Chance“

You guys should really try some of this stuff out for yourselves, you wont regret it! I am in love with everything.

Thanks for reading loves!

Quick Review: Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Compacts

I picked these up recently online and now that i have been able to play around with them and use them for a bit i’d like to share my thoughts with all of you! The Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Multi-Colour Broad Spectrum SPF 15 compacts really do live up to their name. Giving you the most healthy, natural & fresh looking face you could imagine. All while keeping your face healthy & protected from the sun too! There are two different kinds; one is a baby pink and nude color combo, the other is a bronze and lighter mocha brown.

The first compact is going to act as your blush & highlighter, while the second compact serves as your bronzer and sculptor. So if you were planning on doing your highlighting/bronzing routine with this, I suggest you pick up both. I would personally like to see a BIG Chanel Les Beiges Ultimate Compact come out with each individual color inside, but unfortunately I can’t make all the rules. The retail value is $65.00 USD each and can be easily found on Chanel’s website. They are very lightweight, leave you glowing, and each color is wearable for almost any look you are trying to achieve. Whether you’re searching for that special bronzer, a glowing highlighter, or a blush kissed cheek, you will not be disappointed in these. Hurry and try both (or just one) out for yourself before they are gone, these guys are limited edition girls!

Be A Bronze Goddess

A personal favorite of mine; If you love being bronze as much as i do, i highly suggest you pick up The Balms’ “Bahama Mama” Bronzer powder. This product gives you the sun kissed paradise island look you’ve always strived for! And for less then $20.00 it is a STEAL. For the sake of being bronze ladies, go and get your hands on one of these! This has been a must have of mine for while and anyone who hasn’t heard of it, needs to know now.

Product Of The Month!

Now when i say this stuff is GOLD, i mean it makes you look like your cheekbones have been dusted in 24 kt flakes! Picks up light even if you’re in a very dim/dark room, and one of the best parts; it has ACTUAL gold flake in it! Talk about pampering yourself. Take a look at the ingredients if you have trouble believing. Now that you know the secret ingredient, you may be saying, “Well that’s luxurious and great, but how am i supposed to afford something like that?” Well, now i get to blow your mind again. How does about $8.00 for a nice tall bottle that should last the average makeup junkie a couple months or more? Walmart carries this wonderful new hard candy product in quite a few different shades of gold/bronze & champagney pinks. Bronze shades are versatile enough to be used as a cream bronzer on your cheeks or a face & body self bronzing/tanning cream, Pink shades make for a beautiful cream blush. Head over there and pick one up for yourself!
