My Current Obsession

May 21, 2015

Have you recently stopped by your favorite beauty store such as Ulta or Sephora and noticed the Good Karma brush is always out of stock? Well honey, it's a good reason for that.... It's freaking AWESOME!

The Good Karma Optical Blurring brush is absolutely great for any liquid, cream or powder foundation , this cruelty-free brush blends and buffs makeup to a flawless finish. The densely packed shape distributes product incredibly evenly. But most importantly it doesn't shed!!!! GET IT ASAP!!!!

Well anyhoo, I hope this helps!

Urban Decay: SMOKED

March 14, 2013

"Can you give me a sexy smokey eye???" is the question allot of my clients ask me.  As a result I must say, I really really like the SMOKED palette from Urban Decay. So that has been my favorite go-to for a sexy smokey eye. 

A smokey eye does not always mean black or grey, it can be plum, teal and col-bolt blue. With this palette you definitely get options. The colors are rich and super pigmented but hey I'm talking about urban decay so I really would expect nothing less! 


Here is one of my pretty clients from earlier this week. I gave her a smokey eye using ROCKSTAR and a little bit of LOADED on the bottom!


She loved it!!!

It contains black, pink, blue, and silver glitter...I am oh so loving this $14

 Urban Decay Stardust Sparkling Lip gloss, I promise on everything I love this is my all time favorite lip gloss. This gloss glides right over my lipstick perfectly and looks great even if worn alone. $16


I love love love this polish called Rainbow in the S Kylie by Nicole by OPI. This pretty multi-glitter polish goes great over just about any color. $4

Moni



Urban Decay Stardust Sparkling Lip Gloss: Absolutely love this gloss. It glides perfectly over my lipstick and the tiny glitter specs amps my plain lips also. 
$20 - Ulta




Victoria's Secret Luminous Mineral Blush Duo... My favorite blush, its so beautiful! 
$22- Victoria Secret 




Maybelline Dream Matt Mousse: I just got this and I'm not really sure if I like this foundation or not. What I can say is it does give me good coverage and it is lightweight.




Urban Decay Big Fatty Mascara: This mascara is currently my FAVORITE! The Big Fatty gives me gorgeous dramatic lashes
$18 - Ulta



Smashbox Be Legendary Lipstick (Primrose): I always keep this handy just in case Im in need of a natural, soft pink,  creamy look. This colors goes with just about any colored eye shadow 
$19 Ulta 



Stila waterproof eye liner: As you know I almost ALWAYS rock a Winged eye and sometimes I use this to achieve that look. Gotta keep this handy as eye liner is a MUST!
Ulta


EOS Lip Balm: This lip balm keep my puckers nice and moisturized. Keeps my lips kissable in which I know my hubby likes!

Notice I did not have any eye shadow listed, well that's because I don't ever put eye shadow in my cosmetic bag. I always use a primer before I apply my eye shadow so it last ALL day so no touch ups are ever needed. However if I had no make up these items alone with give me the look I want!
