A few weeks ago lush was have a promo where if you spent over $45 you get a little goodie bag as a gift for coming to their event. so of course i picked up the ocean salt. Ive been wanted to try this ever since i saw it a haul video and I'm not disappointed. looking from the top left pic is the different stages of mixing. this is awesome! I've been having really dry skin on my arms and i used this scrub on both arms followed by my vanilla delite lotion and the dryness is completely gone! i will be going back to some more once i run out!

Artdeco makeup



i recently did a swap with a wonder girl in Germany and this is what she sent me for our swap! i got a base and two beautiful eyeshadows. there pretty pigmented and they have just the right amount of shimmer without leaving you looking like a disco ball yet subtle enough that you could wear it to work. they are magnetic so you can stick them in just about any palette and the covers slide off completely. the base is actually really good but i have yet to try it for a full day of work. there is a smell of men cologne. Its not over powering but it is a strange scent to have for a eyeshadow base. if you can get your hands on it i would highly recommend that you try it. im in the process of posting a tutorial with these items soon so keep a look out for it.

So... i've been using this beauty blender for almost a month and i have to say i fell i love with this thing from the first time i tried it. apparently its been out for a while now but i just recently seen Kim Kardashian getting her makeup done with this wonder. lol anyway i found a local spa that sold it and rushed down to get me one. i was told that they last for at least 3 months depending on use. and once your done with them you can send them back to the company to have them recycled. i bought my set for $35 and it came with one sponge and a bottle of cleanser. so start off by getting the sponge nice and wet then squeeze it into a dry towel, pick up some foundation and with dabbing motion apply. im telling you, you will have the nicest natural looking makeup. it will give you that airbrush affect we all crave! check it out the site for more info.http://www.beautyblender.net/

too faced shadow insurance
nyx slate jumbo pencil
mac humid e/s

BeAuTy FrOm ThE eArTh ReViEw


Ok so ive had these minerals for sometime now and i finally got inspired to do some colorful makeup(which i love...i've just been hella lazy..) so anyway i figured why not try my beauty from the earth multipurpose minerals. so i chose my colors yadah, yadah, yahdah and created a look. I used 4 different multipurpose minerals and all of them were fabolous! i had NO FALL OUT! the colors went on bright and true to color and blended like a dream. They come in 5g sifter jars with a clear top (which for makeup junkies is awsome cuz we can find the color in our kit faster) the shadows are finely milled and can be used wet or dry and they have TONS of colors! they also do this thing which they call "color of the week" where full size jars go for $2.00. heres what i used for this look... enjoy!
what i used:
**face**:
mac sculpt and shape foundation (nc40) applied with my beauty blender
cinema secrets conceler
mac mineralize skinfinish natual (medium plus)
mac so cylon minerlize skinfinish
mac fun and games blush
**eyes**
