Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 hour..

As many of you have heard Maybelline came up with a new line called Color Tattoo.. Supposedly these cream shadows are suppose to last 24hrs on your eyes!.. I still haven't meet anyone who will last with they're makeup for 24hrs. And I haven't tried them myself for that amount of time either, so I can't tell you if they do last for the time they claim it will!.. What I CAN tell you it's that they are GREAT!!!. Soooo pigmented and such a Great range of colors!.. I got 2 of them and I he to say I'm really digging these 2 colors!..:) I got #35 Though as Taupe which is a beautiful grayish taupe color and to me looks like it has a hint of purple undertones!.. LOVE it!.. The other one I got is #24 Bad to the Bronze!.. Love the name!..lol.. This Color it's GORGEOUS!!.. It look BEAUTIFUL alone or layered underneath a taupe color or any color for that matter!.. Have you picked up any?.. And if you have let me know how you like them and what you think of them!..

BLUSH COLLECTION: NARS

So as I said in one of my previous Post I was going to do my Blush Collection, So here it goes I'm going to start with One of my FAVORITE brands NARS!.. I have to say that Nars has its names with Blushes..lol.. at 1st when my Husband would ask me whats the name of the Blush I was using I was a little timid on telling him..lol.. Nars Blushes are very Pigmented and a Little goes a LONG way no LIE!.. They have a range of colors from an everyday use to BAMM on your Face..  :D

Exhibit A

Top:Orgasm, R:Angelika
L:DeepThroat, Bottom:MataHari

Top: Madly, R:LoveJoy
L:Douceur, Bottom: Sex Appeal

As you can see I have a range of colors, I have to say that my favs are Douceur, Madly, LoveJoy, Mata Hari and Exhibit A.. I LOVE Mata Hari is a tone down purple and a little goes a long way you can pile it up if you want and get a Really Intense Purple so BEAUTIFUL..  Douceur is such a GORGEOUS color and on me it looks like a pinkie brown and on other people it has a different affect in my opinion its a MOST!!.. Now Exhibit A its such a BEAUTIFUL color and now this one you really need a VERY light hand its SUPER pigmented!!.. and it looks BEAUTIFUL on EVERYONE!..:)

CREAM BLUSHES

Top:Cactus Flower, R: Penny Lane
L:Gold Member, Bottom: Lokoum

I have 4 Cream Blushes and they are GREAT!.. I use them as a base for other Blushes or just as a Blush alone.. Gold Member its such a pretty Highlight!.. and Cactus Flower I've even used it as a lip stick/gloss and it has a really good pay off. Cream Blushes as you all know, can be used in SO many ways. and NARS Cream Blushes have a very soft and pigmented consistency..

MULTIPLE

South Beach

South Beach

I really like the idea of a Multiple, But on my face I think the shimmer its too much!.. What I use it for its for a eyeshadow base.. and on me it doesn't crease.. South Beach is like a Bronze with like a Peachy undertone..

HIGHLIGHT

Albatross
And last but certainly not least, this is the only Highlight I own, its a really BEAUTIFUL highlight and on me it looks like it has a Gold undertone.. and what I like the most is that it doesn't bring out my large pores.. Thumps up for that..:)

Well there you go!.. My NARS Blush Collection.. :D Hope you all enjoy and let me know what you think and what you want to see next.. Wish you a Happy New Year next to all your Family Members.. :D

Lets get Naked Again!..;)

So as you all know Urban Decay made a second Naked Pallet.. and as I was going to order it my Beautiful Friend Gabriela as many of you know as MAKEUPWITHGABRIELA on YouTube got it for me for Xmas!.. :D I was SO excited when I got it in the mail I couldn't wait to use it. And well here are my thoughts on the Naked 2..

I love the case that it comes in it feels more sturdy and I feel the shadows are more protected.. I didn't have a problem with the Original Naked package. But this one I feel looks more slick..;)

Naked 2

Naked Original

As most of Urban Decay pallets most of the shadows are shimmery apart from 3 that are Matt and 1 that seems matte but has just a semi satin look to it.. and the rest are shimmery and then we have the ones with chunks of glitter on them..

A you can see theres a lot of similarities on both pallets.. and I asked myself why did they put Half Baked again in the Naked 2.. I have NO idea!!.. The other thing its NO primer potion it came with a lip gloss.. I really like having the travel size primer but the lip gloss its not bad..

As you can see the colors are BEAUTIFUL but the problem I had was when applying them they really don't have that much pay off I had to re-apply 2 to 3 layers where is to the Original Naked I always applied it Once and that was it!..

As you all know this pallet comes with a double ended brush instead of a eyeliner.. I really don't like Double ended Brushes because its hard to store them.. but maybe its just me..:/

I LOVE LOVE this Brush its Super soft and well you have all the Brushes you will need to make a look.. a flat brush and a very soft crease/blending brush.. Thumps up for Urban Decay on the Brush!!..:)

And like I said the Naked 2 didn't come with a Primer it came with Naked a Lip Junkie.. The color its not SO different from other colors its like a peachy pinkie color and the smell is wonderful. It smells like Peppermint, I love peppermint!!.. :D it doesn't sting or anything its a Beautiful everyday color..:)

 My Final though: I love that Urban Decay came up with a Naked 2 but I have the say that the original was the BEST.. the color Pay off on the Naked 2 wasn't that great.. as a Makeup Junkie that I am I would of Bough it Myself either way.. I Love how the Naked 2 has Matt highlight colors.. Now the question is do you need both of them? ummm maybe Not!..lol.. But I will leave that to YOU..;) 

Sooo Darn true!..

It's funny but sad how true this is!..

IT'S BEEN WAY TOO LONG!..

Hello everyone!.. Hope you are all doing good!.. Well first of all I hope you guys had a Great Thanksgiving with your family!.. Now for a quick question.. would you guys like to see my Blush collection?.. or whatever collection?..lol.. let me know what you guys think.. Leave me a comment telling me what is that you want to see first.. Thank you sooo much!.. Have a GREAT week/weekend.. :0)

The size is the same as of a Mac and they also fit in the Mac pallets.. as of product wise the CS have 1.3g/0.04oz and the Mac has 1.5g/0.05oz ok so you get a little less but there's is a BIG difference in the price!.. Also the CS Hot Pots don't come with a magnetize bottom but I don't see that as a big deal because you can buy a roll of magnet paper anywhere for so little money. By looking at them from site to site some are sooo close to be the exact same to where others are a little off.. But I still think this is a GREAT alternative to all of us who don't want to spend that much money!.. Hope you guys enjoy this post and find it helpful..

10 Ways to Use Three Drugstore Classics

2. .. exfoliate lips: wet the brush, and gently rub over lips.
3. ..whip up a face mask: Use it to mix ingredients and apply.
4. ..groom brows: Spritz the bristle with hairspray!
5. ..dye brows: Dip it in hair color, and brush through brows (leave dye on for 3-5 minutes)
6. ..try a laid-back' do: Spray hair with dry shampoo; back-comb with the brush
7. ..cover grays: Coat gray strands with eyeshadow that matches your base color.
8. ..fix mascara: Nix globs.
9. ..remove hair-color stains: Dip the brush in shampoo, and gently scrub around your hairline.
10. ..and well the most obvious!.. brush teeth: Twice!

#2: Petroleum Jelly. It Can...

1. ..gloss eyes: Put a small amount over shadow- or even on bare lids= for chic shine. ( and this I saw my girl Gabriela on YT do.. so hey if Glamour puts it on its top 10!. my girl is ahead of the game)..;)
2. ..boost lashes: Dab on lashes and brows before bed to keep them supple and strong. ( this I will also report back on!.. I will be trying it since I lack on some parts of my eyebrows.lol..)
3. ..moisturize lips: All day.
4. .. protect skin while coloring hair: Apply around your hairline to prevent staining.
5. ..soften crackle heels: Coat feet at night, put on cotton socks, wake up smooth.

7. ..nourish nails: Massage into cuticles to soften them.
8. ..undo foundation overkill: Tap it along skin to break it up.
9. ..soothe cold-induced chapping: It beats fancy creams for the dry skin around the nose-those can sting.
10.. If you don't use jelly... Make a flavored lip gloss. Mix with Kool-Aid! (this I will be doing for my girls since its Natural!)

#3: A Cotton Swab. Try It To...

1. ..desmudge: Dip one in makeup remover to erase goofs.
2. ..create a cat eye: Use one to stretch liner up and out.
3. ..soften a lip-liner edge: Run it over the outside of the line.
