Products worth raving about!!!!

There is a great place for eyebrow threading that I used to go to, it is called Ziba Beauty Center, they do everything from eyebrow threading, henna, bridal makeup, etc, its really an awesome place. Well I stopped going not because they do a bad job they actually do an excellent job , but because my eyes are too sensitive :( anyway I recommended this place to my mom and she loves it!!! She mentioned to me that they were starting a cosmetic line and that she was told their pencil eyeliner was awesome...to make long story short I got my hands on that pencil liner and wow it is awesome and it does not fade away at all! My mom works at a very sweaty place and after shes home from work (after an 8 hour shift) her eyeliner is still in tact! That's to tell you how good it is. I love this liner....it is similar to Urban Decay's 24/7 pencil liner...I perfer this one....it is about $8. Their website is Zibabeauty.com check them out! I recommend them to everyone.

Ive never tried a gel liner before...I've always been a liquid liner type of girl...My mom got me for Christmas and I love it! The application is so easy and soft and it lasts all day....it does not fade off for example when I'm curling my lashes or anything of that matter.

Kat Von D tattoo concealer

Ive been on a search for a new concealer...I have tried good ones such as clinique and Mac...but I was bored and I wanted to try something new....I went to sephora and tested the Kat Von D tattoo concealer and I looveddd the consistency of it....so Ive decided to give it a try and wow is it good! I have dark under eye circles and this covers them very well....it is a bit drying....I suggest to moisturize before applying it....you don't need a lot to get good coverage and might I add that the packaging is gorgeous!!!!! I have not tried it on my tattoos...since this is actually a tattoo concealer but it can be used for pretty much everything. Its about 20 something dollars...a bit pricy but it will last a long time and again the coverage is great!

I love anything Gaga!!!!!

Yessssss I do love Gaga.....and when I saw this new Mac collection with her on it I went crazy...no wonder the people at Mac play Lady Gaga all the time lol.....I also love Cindy Lauper I mean who doesnt! I cant wait for these lipsticks....and the money goes for a good cause so Im getting them :)

Good Read!

The Movie "Precious" is based of the Novel Push by Shapphire. A coworker mentioned to me that I should read the book before I watch the Movie, I would appreciate the movie more if I did. So i got the book and I read it, its not very long and it doesn't take long to read. I am not a big fan of fiction ( well except for the twilight saga lol) but I found this story to be very realistic, it is a very sad story but its full on inspiration and hope. Also one of its messages is to appreciate the simple things in life such as love, friendship, education, and life it self...a very good story!

I heart this foundation :)

Ok so I went to Rite Aid and they had a buy one get one free on all Maybelline products...I saw alot of good reviews of this foundation on Youtube so I thought what the heck lets give it a try. OMG why have Ive been waiting so long!!! This is a very high quality , inexpensive product. I am a believer of the whole "you get what you pay for" ordeal but I also believe that you dont have to break the bank either lol. This foundation gives a smooth ,silky finish without giving a cacky feeling. I do have blemishes and this foundation covers them without overpowering them. The shade I use is Natural Beige ( MAC Nc35-40). When I apply it I feel as if I am not putting much on my face but I really gives a beautiful coverage..I really recommend it to everyone!

October my fav month of the year! I love the weather....Halloween...everything! Oh and the pumpkins! Many people see Halloween with such malice but I think it is not....just because there is so much of evil in this world does not mean we are all evil. Halloween to me is such a fun time to dress up and be creative!

Recent CCO purchases

Ive been sneaking into the CCO whenever I get some free time and Ive been picking up some stuff lol. I did not purchase all this in one day although that would be a dream come true :) but I do work hard for my money and I can spend it on whatever the hell I want lol

First pic: (from left) Summer Rose Beauty Powder and Blush of Youth Beauty Powder both from the A Rose Romance Collection. Summer Rose is a very sheer pink/lilac ...I love the subtle glow is gives my skin....and Blush of Youth ( My FAV!) is a very sheer pink....I actually wore this during a night out in the town and it looked gorgeous! Oh I use both these as blush and or highligher.

OOhhhhh look at the pretty packaging! sparkly :)
This is Smooth Harmony Beauty Powder from the Heatherette Collection....I use this as a bronzer and also for a quick splash of color for those days when I do not have time for anything! LOL....What I like about this beauty powder is that it is not too shimmery.....just perfect :)
Shadowy Lady Quad!!!! Ive been on a hunt for this and I finally found it yay!
Ive been obsessing on blushes lately ....(from left) Spaced out from the neo sci-fi collection, it is a sheertone shimmer blush, light peachy shimmery blush!....then it is Enough Said Beauty Powder Blush....I love the bronzy look it gives my skin! and last but not least is Pleasureful blushcreme...Ive always wanted to try a blushcreme , this should be a good start.
Stark Naked Beauty Powder Blush ( already depoted) this is a beautiful blush! a plumy/pinky very romantic color!
I made a little boo boo as I was depoting this :( it broke....well only some of it I was able to save most of it :) but it is Joyous Beauty Powder Blush....Ive been searching for the perfect peach color for my skin ( NC35-NC40) and this is one of my fav. peachy color blush!
I love Hello Kitty period! This is Pink Fish tinted lip conditioner...I smells heavenly and the color is great! and it has spf 15 :)
Once again Ive been seaching for a lilac shadow and then I found this pigment! its called Lovely Lily....and it is for sure lovely lol....I can ever wear this by itself and it looks so pretty!

This is probably the most expensive nail polish I own lol....it is from the A Rose Romance Collection and it is called Love & Friendship....I actually did not get this from the CCO I got it on Ebay....it is a beatiful light purple color :)
