Micabella Mineral Eyeshadows

Hello Ladies :) so this weekend I purchased 4 Micabella eyeshadows that can be worn dry or wet. Micabella has a very large selection of eyeshadows it was so hard to just pick or 2 or 3 or 4 haha i wanted them all.. But for now 4 is good enough. They have a really nice metallic look when applied wet and I nice sheer shimmery look when dry. These shadows are actually versatiles they can be used as lip gloss, hair glitter, nail polish or even blush (depending on the color). They give you a little card with instructions on how to use them in different ways. So hope you enjoy these shades and I will for sure be buying some more and posting them up :)

Urban Decay 24/7 15 year anniversary eye pencil collection!

Hello beauty bloggers! sorry its been so long :( I've been busy with school and stuff. So as I (think) mentioned before I enrolled back in school to get my estheticians license and its been really cool been learning a lot of stuff i didnt know before so thats pretty cool... so anyways lets get started on these fabulous eyeliners!
This was an early Valentines day gift from my hubby :) and i am loving them so much 6 of the colors are just exclusively for the collection and the other 9 are from UDs regular line. I am so excited to play around with these colors. I haven't worn any of them yet cause I just got them today but for sure I will be posting up pics everytime I do wear one for the firtst time. Just wanted to share this with all of you and let you know that these liner are so highly pigmented so they are so worth getting. Each pencil runs around 18 dollars each and in this collections you get a set of 15 with a UD pencil sharpener too the worth of this is like over 200 dollars but you can get this awesome limited time collection for 92 dollars at sephora.... honestly its not bad at all its like paying around 6 bucks for each!... well here are some pics so you can get an idea of what they look like (sorry pics are not so good took them with my phone) thank you so much for stopping by and checking out my new blog :) and HAPPY VALENTINES DAY TO ALL YOU BLOGGERS :)

pink with black glitter nails

Hey ladies! its been a while since i've blogged... sorry :(
I have been super busy working on my makeup classes and getting myself ready for school (I start in feb. 1st) I am going back to beauty school and this time to get my estheticians license :) so yeah im pretty excited for that! ok well anyways lets get started on this pink with black glitter nails look....
so the black glitter is Nicole by O.P.I in pitch black glimmer, the pink is by Milani in #46 tip toe pink and the top clear coat is by Sally Hansen in #110 Clear'd for takeoff.

This has become my new favorite color combo and I am loving loving! the black glitter polish because its a clear base with black shimmers and it goes sooo well with anything! I have already worn it alone with like 4 coats and it looks so Fab! it shimmers so nicely. I am excited to combine this polish with many other colors to create new looks... So this is the first look I'll be putting up hope you enjoy :)

Revlon color stay foundation


A friend told me try out the REVLON color stay foundation so I did :) I really liked it I've already used it twice and I'm pretty satisfied with it. The coverage is good and it doesn't feel heavy at all. I have T-zone oily skin so its actually working good for me because I got the combination/ oil free one. Other then fact that it works good its actually very affordable too I got it at Target for $10, not bad compared to what I normally pay. So just wanna say thanks to Queenie Keisha for the recommendation and I do advice you to try it out :)

orange!!!


So I read this on InStyle mag that corals are in right now, and I'm excited! I have this orange eyeshadow from MAC that I think I've only used it like twice so I think im gonna start creating some looks with it now. Ever since I read this I've been wanting to try it out and since I had the chance to dress up today I tried doing some gold with peachy orange on my eyes. I did some orange on my lips too but my camera is making it look like a berry color :( I gave up trying to get the right color. But anyway I did some colorful orange on myself for this look... I'm gonna keep trying new orange looks maybe, I'll do a plain eye next with just bright orange lips :)
(ok next time im not using the animated border lol my cheek looks weird)

Products used on eyes: the 3rd orange on 88 palate by coastal scents, MAC orange on crease and oscar by too face (gold).
