Hey Glossies, The beauty destination today is Kuala Lumpur. Not the KL of Malaysia, where the residents are called KLites, where many visitors flock to the Butterfly Park and where the National Textiles Museum is located (my top 5 of things to do in KL)….One day though! The Kuala Lumpur as in the eye shadow […] Read more…

Naked is the New Black
Hey Glossies, Over the past few months, I have been excited by neutral looks. (Don’t get me wrong, I still love my greens, purples and pinks!) After listening to Beauty Talk with Illusions Cosmetics on Thursday, I wanted to try a more naked look than what I am normally do. So a couple of years, […] Read more…
Brown Love
Hey Glossies, I was reading the current issue of Glamour magazine and I spotted an ad with Kim Kardashian rocking a smoky brown eye look. My favorite thing about Kimmie is her makeup because it always classic and flawless. I am so all about using color and having fun that I forget about the dignity […] Read more…
My Stylish Move
Hey Glossies, I can never underestimate the power of good skincare. There can be no real beauty without proper, effective skincare. After getting a facial during Spaweek, I realized that I need to up the ante on my skincare regimen. A great regimen allows for better application of beauty products and YES, healthy looking skin!

The Ivy Icon
Hey Glossies, I must admit I have been loving Maybelline eye shadows and foundations lately.

Colour Me Bad
Hey Glossies, I think most of us are looking forward to Spring (especially the colors – the yellows, corals, pinks, purples and even browns [tans]). It seems that MAC is preparing us for said season. MAC Spring Colour Forecast collection was not really on my radar until a few days prior to the official date, […] Read more…
Seeing Stars
Hey Glossies, The saga continues…. I finally wore my updated Prescriptives Custom Blend (CB) foundation. I have learned that Custom Blend is as good as the blender. The second MA did a much better job than the initial MA. The color shade is not suitable for my entire face, so I have decided to only […] Read more…
Baked Holiday Goodies FOTD
The holidays are drawing to a close and I hope that all had a Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, Happy Kwanzaa and Happy New Year. This year we attended some great holiday parties. For one event, I wanted to create a different look, so I picked up the Arissa baked eye shadows in Twilight (a champagne […] Read more…
Electric Holiday 2009 FOTD
Hey Glossies, Recently, I went to the first holiday party of the season. It was fun times with fabulous friends!! I planned to do a smoky look with my newly-acquired NARS Night Breed, but I decided to use the L’Oreal HiP Duo in Electrified. Electrified duo = plum-infused silverish-taupe and metallic plum. I love this […] Read more…
