MAC Cinestyle

I wanna start off with saying I'm so over Sticky GoOpy lipGloss...I just don't have the energy to keep up that relationship anymore.
Hair sticking to your lips is gross & that white sticky crust that thick tacky types of glosses leave behind has NEVER been cute.
Ok rant over....
With that said I Loooooove MAC Cremesheen Glass. It's super smooth and creamy. Very moisturizing on My lips. Cinestyle is part of the Reel Sexy collection released earlier this month (4/5) This a gorgeous creamy lavender. Cinestyle Mutes lips a bit just as a nude would and will be a great layering tool to transform other lip colors.

19.50 price tab is a little high but because of the unique color and wonderful formula, this is worth the splurge for me

P.S Im getting through My MAC/E.L.F haul & slowly trying to incorporate everything into My Routine before I give My opinion :) thnx for Your patience & feedback

What are Your thoughts on LipGloss? What are You currently using?

Holy Hologram BatMan!!!

Ohhhhh Holo how I love me some You!!
I finally got My hands on a good Black/Gray linear holographic nail polish.
This is Layla Cosmetics Hologram Effect in Flash Black.

This was a little gloppy and patchy going on...but was self leveling and opaque with 2 coats. It dried to a beautiful rainbowy charcoal.

Absolute show stopper. I photographed in low light, bright light & in the sun while tanning :)

I say its worth the 15.50 price tag at Ulta.

I topped with Seche.

Artsy Wednesday SHOES

This week has brought us to one of My personal favorite themes: SHOES!

I knew right away that My nails this week would be based upon My life long love of Air Jordan's. I started wearing them in 3rd grade & still have quite the collection today. Air Jordan's are My absolute favorite. My nails are based upon the Original Red,black & White color ways. I am a huge Michael Jordan fan, so I was very pleased with how they turned out.

Colors used:

•OPI Thrill Of Brazil
•WnW Ebony Hates Chris
•NYX Girls White

I added red & clear rhinestones to jazz it up a bit thenTopped with Seche Vite

Hope You Liked this weeks theme...let Me know down below in the comments. Also what themes would You like to see in the upcoming weeks??We'd love to hear from You.

Blueeee Prisms

Happy Saturday Y'all! Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend

Today's Manicure is all about China Glaze

•Secret Peri-wink-Le (2008 Operation colour Collection)

•Liquid Crystal (2012 prismatic collection)

These two play pretty nice together. Liquid crystal is a duo chrome & is pretty hard to capture on film. The bottle shot shows the purplish pink shift. The polish looked more bluish on the color wheel & silvery on My nails.

Enjoy :)

Neon Fish Friday

I was feeling a little flashy today & needed a manicure that POPS...sitting in My untrieds (I've really been trying to get through them all)
Wet N Wilds spoiled "Did I Dye it too Blonde" she is a bright neon fluorescent Yellow. Super bright and super perfect for My mood today!
This polish is a bit thin, still have VNL after 2 coats. She makes up for it by drying super fast. Like most neons this color dries a bit flat.
Sooooo I topped her off with finger paints Flecked. A Beautiful flakie that's shifts neon green to blue. I think these two are a pretty good match.

I realized it was "Fish Egg Friday" so thought I'd show My support by adding an accent nail with white pearl micro beads (don't these remind You of bubbles...can't wait to do a bubble bath Mani with these)

Have a great weekend Everyone! Keep calm & Glitter on ;)

Smell The Revlon Rainbow

Hello Dollfaces

Just a quick post because I was too excited to wait!! Because I Loooooooove Rainbows...especially fruity rainbows.
I was super lucky today & found the complete Revlon Fizz collection.
8 fruity scented glass flecked colors:

•Watermelon Fizz
•Grapefruit Fizz
•Orange Fizz
•Pineapple Fizz
•AppleTini Fizz
•Colada Fizz
•Mint Fizz
•Grape Fizz

These smell super sweet :) and are on the sheer side..great for layering. I used 3 coats on the Colorwheel & I'm fine with the opacity its perfect for summer & that beautiful glass fleck gives them a bit of bling. These remind me of melted popsicles & shaved ice.
They will definitely be in heavy rotation as the weather warms up

And to top it all off I only paid a dollar for each one ;)) Eight freakin bucks for a fantastically Fruity Rainbow!!

Winning!!

So happy with this haul! <---- as You can tell.

Anybody else own these?
