A Red Lipstick to Consider – Lip Maestro by Giorgio Armani

I’ve been carrying around clipped ads I tore out of my current issue of Marie Claire, why? Because I am dying to know what shade of Lip Maestro the model is wearing. That’s the thing about ads, they don’t always tell you what shade is featured. Hopefully when I make it down to the ArmaniContinue reading “A Red Lipstick to Consider – Lip Maestro by Giorgio Armani”

New CC Cream – “IT” Cosmetics

Can I just tell you guys that I am in CC Cream heaven. Not only is the compact gorgeous, but the application is flawless.

Being an “IT” Girl with “IT” Cosmetics

I never set out to become an “IT” girl, it just happened. I first fell in love with the Brow Power eye pencil, the color is universal and doesn’t come off until you take it off.

Red & Blue

You know which colored mascara looks great with your favorite shade of crimson? A bright cornflower blue, in this case it’s my favorite by Butter London. I apply Inky Six to the tips of my lashes once I am done applying the first layers of my black mascara. I end up looking more Parisian ChicContinue reading “Red & Blue”

I don’t know if you guys are aware, I really don’t buy makeup anymore, and I wear very little of it.

Because it truly is one ofContinue reading “favorite Mascara”
