Jordana Lip Out Loud!

I'm really loving the Drugstore brands that are stepping it up with high quality products. It's such a nice suprise to pay 1.99 & get decent color payoff. So I'm loving Jordana Lip Out Loud super shiny gloss.
This gloss comes in a variety of shades. It's not sticky & has a sort of plasticky watermelon scent ( not my fave, but for the price I can live with it)

Lifes a Beach!..even in the fall

I know summer is over.. But I really feel some of this years summer items are really just meant to wear after. prime example: Stila living the life in Laguna. No.5
This palette is so warm it practically screams fall.
For 14.00 u get 4 shadows 1 cheek color & 1 bronzing powder. Okay the 2 cheek colors(seashell & Pacific Coast Highway) come up a little short because they are really light & a bit chalky, but I will find a use for them. The shadows make this palette a Gem very fine quality buttery shadows in warm autumn colors that I personally love: sandollar is a pink champagne, sunset is a rusty rose copper, cove is a cool mauve shade & bonfire is a warm brown with coppery shimmers

What do u think of this palette? Do u have any of the collectible beach palettes?

Give Me Some Lip...

Got gloss?

Okay so it's a slight addiction that spreads from home, the car, various bags & purses..living in my vanity, even in My desk @ work, the occasional pants or coat pocket.. Most hardly used but I always feel the need to add more to My arsenal of glossy, sparkly, moisturizing,juicy pops of color.
My lippies are a bit spoiled :)
Sephora definitely feeds the gloss hoarder in me when they put out their sephora favorite set called:

GiveMeSomeLip.....this is great for the gloss addict on a budget, at only 25 bucks. You get to try 6 fab lip samplers in deluxe size

Included from L-R:

•Benefit benetint rose lip & cheek stain
•Bare Escentuals BUXOM big&healthy lip polish in Leslie
•SmashBox lip enhancing gloss in Fame
•LANCÔME Juicy Tubes jelly in Rasberry Ice
•Tarte lip surgence natural lip tint in moody
•Kat Von D painted love lipstick in Celebutard

Get you some :)

Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin

I absolutely love fall & winter...
This year I've been especially addicted to all things Pumpkin...a trip to Bath & Body Works was just what the doctor ordered.
I picked up Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin body lotion,shower gel,fragrance mist,pocket size anti-bacterial sanitizing gel and candles
Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin is warm, spiced pumpkin,crisp apple & juicy cranberry. Definitely autumn in a bottle!

But I must say its not as pumpkin as I would like it to be....none the less it's still smells yummy just wishing for a bit more pumpkiny goOdness.


What are your favorite fall scents? Do you use any pumpkin products?

POTD: PurplePeopleEater..

For My Pedicure of the day I went with shades of purple, a color I happen to love. I decided to pick two shades with lots of contrast. First we have Color Club Puccilicious, I love the name & the formula is just perfect. The polish went in super smooth & creamy...the color is a fluorescent light purple. I actually could have got away with 1 coat on this, I went ahead & put 2 anyways for good measure. I'm seeing lots of Color Club in My future :) the formula & colors are really winning me over.
Okay for My second color I went to the darker end of the Purple spectrum & dipped into a Cult favorite...None other than the famous OPI Lincoln Park after Dark. I can't say enough good things about this polish.. It's a rich plum eggplant color, very dark &vampy, absolutely gorgeous, definitely lives up to the Hype.
To make the large polkaDots I used the back of a makeup brush....yea that simple :)
Top off with Seche Vite & you've got a pedi just as Unique as You are!

What color combos will you use?

NOTD : Target Red Tangled In My Web

For today's nail of the day, I decided to go with a bright cherry red from Loreal. The polish is called Target Red, it was made exclusively for target stores along with 3 red lipsticks for valentines 2011. I used 2 coats for opaque coverage.
I topped off the red with Wet N Wilds Tangled in My web Topcoat from the 2011 on the prowl Halloween collection. This is black hexagonal glitter in a clear jelly base. I used 2 coats to achieve the look you see here & topped it all off with a coat of seche vite.
I think the black glitter looks great on top of red..it's pretty unique & different from anything else I own..can't wait to try it on top of the Glow polish

What Halloween looks are you trying on your nails?

Lets get NAKED.....

Hello My lovelies :)

This is just going to be a quickie.. since there are about a bazillion reviews on this particular eyeshadow palette. Lots of hype around this one & it can be quite hard to get your hands on...

We are talking about Urban Decays NAKED palette made famous by Many blogs,vlogs, celebrities & makeup artists

I got my hands on one this past summer,so I've been using it for about three months. I have to say it's a pretty good asset to any beauty arsenal. The colors are gorgeous & buttery smooth. You can create a wide variety of looks nude.. Bronzy, to smokey. The packaging is thin & sleek, easy for travel & comes with a Good Karma shadow brush (retails for 26.00) & is 100% vegan
NAKED comes with 12 shadows (that retail for 17.00 each, if purchased separate ) 4 of the colors are exclusive to this palette
L-R: virgin,sin,naked,sidecar,buck,half baked,smog,darkhorse,toasted,Hustle,creep,gunmetal & travel size bottle of Potion Primer!( not pictured, full review coming soon)

All in all for 48.00 it's more than worth it!

How do You get Naked?

The Crystal Clear Winner

I really didn't know what I was missing until I finally gave in and bought a bottle of the ever so popular cult favorite, most peoples holy Grail : Seche Vite Dry Fast Topcoat

The bottle comes in a 14ml(.5fl oz) clear glass bottle. This topcoat dries extremely fast & is self leveling, this means ridges, polishing mistakes & shakey applications are remedied by this product. This will also make Your nail art come alive. The finish is high shine with a crystal clear glass like reflection. seche penetrates wet layers of polish hardening it to a single smooth solid coat.

This topcoat does contain Toulene, so make sure you use it in well ventilated areas

Remember:

Always apply to nails while still wet.
Apply a thick bead of seche to each nail. The product will become thick overtime from evaporation.. Purchase seche restore to extend wear. Never use polish thinner it wont work with this topcoat. Only use for a topcoat! Never for touchups

You can purchase at Sallys, sephora, Ulta & some drugstores for 8.00 -10.00
It's worth every penny!! Believe the hype on this one. I painted My nails 20 minute before bed & woke without any sheet marks.....Amazing!

What's your favorite topcoat?? Have u tried Seche Vite?
