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…
MAC Cosmetics
Love Lace in Macao
Hey Glossies, I finally tried NARS foundation and I purchased MAC’s Love Lace e/s. More on the foundation later. I do not own any color that is similar to Love Lace…the color reminds me of denim (a combination of navy blue and grey). I totally love the color and the texture. Veluxe Pearl is my […] Read more…
Ace of Base
No, not the Swedish pop group who had hit songs like “The Sign” and “All That She Wants.” I am speaking of makeup artist extraordinaire, Toni Acey. She is a sought-after celebrity make-up artist, based in Atlanta, who did not imagine that she could even work as makeup artist. Toni worked in corporate America for […] Read more…
Black Violet
I am really enamored with Young Punk m/es to the point that I compare everything to it. So I noticed that the Black Violet side of NARS Brousse has tiny flecks of pinkish/purple glitter. I thought, “Wow, this color looks like it could be Young Punk’s distant relative.” I really got frustrated with this duo […] Read more…
Photo Realism is Love
My birthday wish list included the Photo Realism quad, and thankfully, I received this item as a gift. *Woop, Woop!!* I usually do not like pre-made quads because I usually only like one or two colors, but with this quad, I like them all!! The light green – Fresh Approach reminds of what Warm Chill […] Read more…
Do You Know What Today Is?
Today is my birthday!! Woop Woop. I am very happy to see another year. My aim is to always be grateful for the little things in life, family and friends. God has been good to me and the family, so no complaints. I have been so busy with stuff and stuff that I had not […] Read more…
Queen of the Night
One of my favorite beauty icons is Queen Latifah. She carries herself very well and always looks glam when she is at industry events. Her makeup is always flawless! She has come along way from her rapping days. There was not too much about those looks that I admired. I started to really like her […] Read more…
Blonde Ambition
No, I am not going blonde, but I do Love the Blonde MSF from the Blonde Brunette and Redhead collection from MAC. I know, I know this collection came out in in 1876 LOL, but I was not a huge fan because the collection looked totally dupable. MSFs and I have a love affair that […] Read more…
Dolla Dolla Bill Y’all
Who remembers the The Wu-Tang Clan’s song, C.R.E.A.M (Cash Rules Everything Around Me)? In the FOTD, I tried the Cinema Secrets Hollywood Lights (loose e/s) in Dolla Bill. This brand is popular among professional makeup artists who work in the theatre and/or movie/tv production . The Hollywood Lights are similar to MAC pigments and Reflects […] Read more…
Pretty in Pink
I have been eying Too Faced Beauty Mark for awhile. The duo is part “Black Foil” and “Gilded Rose”. The “rose” side is a soft neutral color that could work well for day and night and is similar to MAC’s Expensive Pink. The color payoff is less gold on me than Expensive Pink.*I just love […] Read more…
