Liquid foundation of the Moment

I picked up some liquid foundation from the CCO the other day.  I got the mineralized foundation.  I have a hard time with liquid foundation.  I have a hard time blending it.  I tend to go for tinted moisturiser then powder foundation on top.

This foundation is medium to heavy coverage for me.  It blends really nicely, so I can wear it easily.  So overall its a good CCO purchase.  Unfortunately, they don't carry every shade so it is hit or miss.

Thank you for looking,

Intense Rouge

OOh boy this is intense.  Its like Ruby Woo kicked up on Chanel Red Dragon!
Now this was my first MUFE lip color.  I love the eyeliners and aqua creams already.  I am quite happy with this red.  It does really stay too.  This read won't rub off easily.
Oh yeah that's red.
I have Ruby Woo on top and MUFE 46 on the bottom.  Yeah its not matte but WoW what a color. It runs $19 a pop which is more than MAC lipstick.  I found that this formulation is long lasting and keeps moisturizing, kinda like a long lasting luster from MAC.

You can get Make Up For Ever at Sephora and some MUFE boutiques.

Thank you for looking!

Drug Store Haul

I picked up some great drugstore finds.  I was really surprised how great the pigmentation was on these cheap makeup!

I got Wet N Wild Brulee.  Now this is my second purchase of this color.  I found about this color from Kragey.  You have to check out her reviews on you tube.  She gives a really great review on products, very honest and spotlights products that I know I wouldn't have tried otherwise.
Brulee is a great shade that I can use as a highlighter and blending color.  I got the whole haul on a 50% so the single shade was only a dollar.

A couple of compacts ended up being only $2.50 each.  It has the best beauty purchase I have made in awhile.
Each one of these palettes have good pigmentation and blend well.


Out of all four the Lust palette has to be my favorite.  Which I didn't get a picture of before I used it.  Second to that has to be the Greed palette below.

These nice greys and pinks work well for work.

Worth the money and I only wish that I got the Xmas palettes that came out.

Thank you for looking!

King of the Mods

I needed some hair gel.  So I was in Philly and thought about trying out the Goth Juice.  So I went in to Lush and came out with King of the Mods styling gel.  It really does hold my curls nicely without leaving that yucky crunch behind.  Now I am not saying that crunchy curls are bad.  In my experience when I get crunchy curls it ends up leaving flaky mess in my hair.
As you can see the "gel" is more of a cream.  I only use a tiny amount to get hold.  Its more on the expensive side of products but since you need such a little amount it goes a long way.

I would buy this again.

Take care and thank you for looking!

My Cham Pale Part Duex

So here it is Part Two

I placed an online order, which I was quite happy with my purchases.  So me being me, went out and purchased some more from one of my favorite MAC counters.
I purchased another Lipgelee (big shocker), paint pot and a Chromographic Pencil.

This is my glitter bomb out of the collection, but I could not pass it up.  I love layering a pretty lipstick or long lasting lipcolor with lipgelee.  It gives it a pop of shimmer and keeps long lasting lip colors (like Loreal long last Infallible) looking hydrated instead of all banged out after a couple of hours of wear.
Can you see the glitter shining thru from the lipgelee?
From top to bottom, Sin-tillation, Let Me Pop and then NC 15/ NW 20 chromographic pencil.  I know a lot of people use this for their water line to make the eyes look bigger.  I think it looks a bit weird on me.  Now I did not have any eyeliner on the top so this might end up working for that purpose.  What I have found it use for for is spots.  I am an NW 20, so in the morning if after I have put foundation on I can zap out any little redness that might be peaking thru.  Now mind you this isn't the best way I am sure, but when I am a bit lazy and don't want to get my fingers dirty or another brush this helps in a hurry. 

Thanks for Looking!
Lots of love to you and yours,
Mo
