Sephora: weekly special: tokidoki

Hi Everyone! Here is one of Sephora's weekly specials...tokidoki lip glosses are on sale for $7, which is more than half off (reg. price $15)!! 'Bullets' seems like it would be a very pretty berry color. So if you've been putting off trying this brand, now is the perfect time to indulge :)

MAC: Fashion Flower Haul

Hi Dolls! I was excited about the release of this collection, as it had the beauty powder I have been wanting for sometime: Alpha Girl. I didn't want to shell out big bucks to pick it up on Ebay, so now after much waiting it is FINALLY mine! :) I was also looking forward to trying out the new lipstick Growing Trend (mid tone taupe nude), as it is right up my alley! I am absolutely obsessed with all nudes, as well as the amplified creme finishes! So this was a winner in my eyes! I did not pick up the Ever Hip lipstick this time, since I got it when it was released during the Liberty of London collection. I was so excited to get it when it was first released, but then I didn't end up using it much... The Light Sunshine beauty powder & Ground Cover eyeshadow seem OK, not anything that I would say you need to run out and get. And as for the Lucky Green eyeshadow it is permanent...so I wouldn't say you need to rush and pick it up by any means.
So what did I pick up?
  • Ground cover Eyeshadow
  • Lucky Green Eyeshadow (permanent; already had it in my stash)
  • Alpha Girl BP
  • Light Sunshine BP
  • Fashion Flower Lipgelee
  • Growing Trend Lipstick
  • Ever Hip Lipstick (from L.O.L. collection)
Recommendations: Alpha Girl BP, Growing Trend and Ever Hip Lipstick Passes: Light Sunshine BP, Ground Cover Eyeshadow
What did y'all end up getting? What were your 'hit and misses'?
x+o,

MAC Ever Hip Lipstick, YOU ARE MINE!!

Hello lovely readers!
For the past couple of days I've seen sick as a dog. The majority of my time has been spent sleeping, watching tv, or internet shopping. I was on the MAC website getting my weekly fix, and I decided to pick up a couple of items from the Fashion Flower collection. The one lipstick that I wanted, Ever Hip, was already sold out!
Ever Hip lipstick had already been released with the Liberty of London collection and was making it's way back to us through this collection.
So, even though I was sick, I picked my butt up this morning and headed to my local MAC counter. This baby is now mine!
To see swatches, check out this post HERE.
I really love these new paper bags they have started to use. And here she is, Ever Hip! A beautiful coral color with a creamsheen finish. I can't wait till I feel better and actually put this baby on!
Hope every one is having a great day!

Should I purchase?

So, what do you think? I've never tried this product by Sleek Makeup. I know that there are alot of followers who are from the UK and this brand is readily accessible. What is your input on their pout polish? It's looks wonderful!

Review: Sonia Kashuk Flat Top Multipurpose Powder/Blush Brush

Since we are on the subject of brushes.... Have you seen the new Brush Couture makeup brushes from Sonia Kashuk. They are just adorable! I purchased this brush along with an eyeshadow brush of the same pattern. The brush was $10.99US from my local Target.

Brushes, brushes, everywhere!!!

Hello there! I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend. Unfortunately, back to work tomorrow. Why do the weekends pass so quickly!?

Anyway, after I made it back from NYC, I was
quickly regretting not hitting up the Hakuhodo booth and picking up a couple of handmade beauties. I've been thinking about that for days now. If I get something in my head, I won't let it go until I have it! Hee hee.

IMATS New York HAUL!!

Hello All!
Well, here is my haul from IMATS New York. I set aside some money little by little and thankfully I really didn't go past my budget. Yay! I actually did see some things that I had to just walk away from. They're still on my "wish" list and maybe someday I'll purchase some more goodies :)

IMATS New York Pictures!


Hello all!  Well, I'm back from my lovely trip to New York City.  I am so exhausted!  So much walking, but I had so much fun. :)  The main purpose of my trip was to attend the International Makeup Artists Trade show otherwise known as IMATS.  It was insane!  I'm so glad that I bought the tickets months in advance, because it ended up being a sold out show.  Whew!

IMATS New York!


Hello!  If you're wondering why I haven't been blogging much, it's because I'm preparing myself for IMATS NYC!!  Woo hoo!  I've barred myself from makeup shopping so that I could save my pennies for my trip to New York.  I am so excited!  This is my first time to IMATS, and I'm sure it's not going to let me down.  Here are some of the things I'm looking forward to...
