Get 'em Before They're Gone

My apologies for taking a few days off from blogging. Unfortunately, I haven't been feeling the greatest so, aside from going to work, I have literally done nothing the last few days. OK, maybe I finished the 50 Shades of Grey Trilogy (which ROCKED BTW), but other than that nothing.

Anyways, I received an email this morning from MAC informing me of the latest players to leave the game...FOR GOOD. So, before they are gone, don't forget to grab:

*Jealously Wakes Eyeshadow
*Hocus Pocus Eyeshadow
*Parisian Skies Eyeshadow
*Neo Orange Pigment
*Red Dwarf Pro Longwear Lipcreme
*Caqui Lipglass
*Its a Wow Lipglass
*Petting Pink Lip Conditioner
*Oriele Orange Nail Laquer

MAC Haul

Every other week, when I receive my paycheck, the promise of new beauty products glimmers in my mind. This week I bought MAC products exclusively and could not be more excited.

• Greensmoke Eye Shadow



• Pearl Cream Color Base (I have this in Hush and I LOVE, perfect for highlighting)



• Select Cover Up in NW20



• Powder Blush in Harmony (Great for Contouring Cheeks)

• Angel Lipstick (Very light, baby pink, looks heavenly on! LOVE)

*I had to include a picure of Angel on because it looks very different on the lips.                         

Cover Girl Lash Blast Mascara Review

For a little while now I have been reading and hearing about what an amazing mascara Cover Girl Lash Blast is. I was told of the “volumizing, big lash” look I would achieve with 1-2 coats of this affordable mascara. With, what seems like, new mascara coming out weekly I was suspicious of these claims. I have heard many declarations like this one in the past, only to be disappointed after purchasing the product. But I knew I would never know if this mascara was “the one” without trying it.


I went down to my local Walgreens, purchased the mascara (waterproof), and went home to begin my very intense and very scientific testing. By that I mean I went home and applied two coats of the mascara to my eyelashes and observed. As you can see it was a very serious test 

I must say that I was definitely, pleasantly surprised by the results. My lashes did look thicker and more volumous. I have long eyelashes and sometimes mascara doesn’t hold the curl all day and this one definitely did. The lightweight mascara didn’t seem to weigh my lashes down like other brands I have tried in the past. The brush design seemed genius to me because it evenly coated my lashes without making them super goopey. At first glance this mascara doesn’t seem like it can do wonders for your eyes, but my experience says it did wonders for my eyes!

The only thing I did not like about Cover Girl Lash Blast was, when dry, the formula becomes stiff on your eyelashes. My personal preference when shopping for mascara is to create soft and full lashes. This mascara almost hit the nail on the head but fell short at the finish line!

GRADE: A-

I Love to be Naked2

Urban Decay's newest palate is ahhh-mazing. The palate itself is full of gorgeous neutrals that range from effortless mattes to colors that are full of shimmery goodness, allowing so much versatility. The shadow goes on smooth and lasts all day (although I do wear a Tarte eyelid primer) and can create an enhanced natural or intensely dramatic eye. The choice is up to you! I have yet to find something about this palate that I do not like. Although that usually seems to be the case with Urban Decay products in general. This is definitely a makeup bag must for any makeup lover!
