FOTD

I was bored out of my mind, so I decided to do a girly look...
Purple & Pink!

xoxoxo

What I use for my face + HAUL of the DAY

I decided to do this post first about what I use for my face.. & My thoughts on them..
I've been really into NARS lately, and I really want to start collecting ALL their blushes lol..

Bronzer/Contour:

NARS Casino:

I like to use this as a bronzer, or a light contour. Even though it has a little shimmer, I use it more as a bronzer. I really like this bronzer because it looks natural. It's not TOOOO shimmery, or sandy. Goes on evenly, but if I were a little lighter it'll come out on me more. I'd give this 8/10.

MUFE MAT BRONZE #6:

I LOVE this product. I use this contour my face all the time! I have nothing further to say because loving it explains it all! LOL Quite expensive, but it's okay..If you're the type who's tan & your complexion does not change all THAT much during the yr, this would be good for you because you can use it year round!
This is a 10/10!

Highlighters:

Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick:

I've been using this product for quite some time now, and I'd have to say it's "alright". It would probably be a blush to a light skinned person, but for me, it's a highlighter. It gives me a soft pearl pink touch, which I like, but I'm more into a gold tone. Sometimes, I even use this brick for eyeshadow or underneath my eyes to make it look brighter. It's handy all around because of all the different colors, but I wish I got a different one. This product would be like a 6/10.

NARS NICO:

Oooweee! This is a cute highlighter! It's great if you contour & you just put this on top a little. It's a little faint, but it's ok cuz I don't want TOO much shimmer on my face. I just want a "soft glow". I just got this a couple days ago from Sephora, and I must say..I like it! Not LOVE, but like cuz I feel like I can get something else that'll show more. Any suggestions for a tanned toned girl like me? I'm having a hard time finding a good highlighter. I would give this a 7/10!


BLUSHES:

NARS Deep Throat:

MY FAVORiTE BLUSH!! Gives me that pink but not TOO pink color, and not TOO shimmery. It's JUST right. I think this is compared to the Orgasm blush, but more for the darker toned gals. I was scared it wasn't going to come out on me, but it did! It probably wear this the most when I go out, to work, or to a party. If you don't like too much pink, or the pink doesn't look fake, I'd definitely suggest this for you. This is a 10/10!

NARS TAOS:

I like this blush if you're going for a heavy look. It's like a dark pink, and great if you want your cheeks to stand out in a picture. Not for everyday or else you'll look like you're a cake face. Wearing this gives me a mixture of bronze & blushed..I like it, but not LOVE it.
This is a 8/10.


MAC FUN & GAMES:

Because I'm dark, this can hardly be seen on me, unless I pack it on. I use this everyday, for a simple peachy look. I really like it, because if you can tell so far, I'm not that into heavy blushes. I like my blushes just simple. This is a great everyday blush because it gives you that soft peach/pink look, and is great for the summer time. I know during the summer, it's hard to wear make-up especially if you sweat a lot, but this is great because it looks natural.
This is a 9/10.


MAC PEACHTWIST:

This is a darker peach. I like this as well during the night, and to go out with. It's kind of really shimmery, so I don't wear it too often. It has a nice gold tone to it too if you're into that. But this isn't my favorite. So I would give this a 7/10.

My messy traincase!!

HAULS:

Over the weekend, I went to Sephora in Cerritos and got the MUFE HD Foundie & NARS NICO. I haven't used the foundation for more than a week yet, so I don't know what to say, but I will come back to it!

That is all for now! Happy Holidays!


OX,

That Little Black Dress +FOTD

I am so happy to be back and have a camera to finally blog again!
This week has been so hectic! Finals, family stuff, and did I tell you about the Make-up by RenRen's giveaway that I won? I won her giveaway, Elle Bang Brush Set, and freaking FedEx LOST IT! Sent it to the wrong house and everything, and does not remember where that house was! They kept telling me that they sent it to the right address, and left it on the porch. I looked at the delivery time, and I was home when they "delivered" it, but I didn't here a knock, doorbell, or a truck come by, so the package was never left on my porch. I looked around my neighbors' porches to see if it could've been left there, but NOPE! So they're still in progress of "investigating" it. I doubt that they'll find it, which is gay..I've been wanting new brushes too :( and I was super duper excited cuz I've never won any contests or giveaways before. Just my luck huh? Oh well...can't cry over spilled milk..I guess..Would've been nice though!

On a brighter note! Guess what I got?! My aunt said that she's been meaning to give me this dress for quite some time now, but decided to hold on to it til' Christmas, but I kept telling her I'm not a lil girl anymore, I don't need to wait til Christmas lol..She surprised me with...
THIS DRESS! (see below) The one Khloe & Lala is wearing! So freakin sexy! I love love love it! It's made by Alexander Wang! I can't wait to wear it! When she gave it to me today, it totally made my day..I thought this week was just HELL, but having a new little black dress totally made up for this crappy week. I just need to find the right black heels to go with it..

FOTD TIME! Thought I wasn't gonna do a make-up post? Yeah right! lol
