Loving the vampy lips trend

I could not resist to buy this Revlon Super Lustrous Black Cherry Lipstick and to join the current vampy lips trend of the season.

This is a not so easy color to wear. The first time I did, I worked so hard to make it last longer, so I applied a lip primer under it, and it was not a good idea. My lips got too dry and it made the color itself to looked too matte and dark for my skin tone.

My advice is to only apply a lip liner in  a natural shade under it and to take your time applying the lipstick with a lip liner brush. The best lip liner brush that I have ever used is this one from BHCosmetics.  Believe me, it really, really makes a difference to follow this process. I am the kind of woman who is always on the rush and I avoid to wear lipsticks that take too much work to apply and to make them look perfect. But, I think that we need to take our time to look fabulous.

Have any of you tried this lipstick from Revlon? What do you think? Are you the type of girl that stray away from dark lipsticks?

Hasta Pronto!!!

Nail Polish Sucker

The trend for the cold months is always dark, vampy shades for lipsticks and nail polishes. Well, I like more colorful options and I've been wearing this electric nail polishes. And guess what? it makes me happy!!!!!

Got this Spectacle nail polish on my September MyGlam Bag

It is a little opaque for my taste, but after a coat of clear nail polish looks perfect

                            

Love, love this yellow color

Head and Shoulders Damage Rescue Program

Hello everyone!!! I want to give a big thanks to the people from the www.influenster.com for sending me the new Head & Shoulder Damage Rescue Shampoo and Conditioner.

First of all, the Influenster is a program that sends free hair and skin products to participants for review. I subscribed for it on March and I have to confess that I am still trying to find how it works. It was a total surprise when I received an email a month ago saying that I was selected to participate in a new Influenster program with Head and Shoulders.

I received a full size shampoo and conditioner to try out. It claims to make the hair stronger in 10 washes. I have washed my hair two times with it, so it is too soon to testify on this claim. But I can tell you that I love the idea of using a shampoo and a conditioner from the same brand to control dandruff.  I also love its smell. It has a delicious, peach smell....

I am looking forward to see my hair falling out less and to see it looking more shiny and healthy. If you want to participate in this program from the Influenster, go to their website, subscribe and create your profile. You may be able to receive free goodies and to participate in many of their programs.

  Thanks a lot Influenster and Head and Shoulders!!!

December Ipsy Makeup Bag

Merry Christmas everyone. I hope that you all had a wonderful time with family and friends. 

Now, I want to show you my Ipsy (formally MyGlam)  bag from the month of December. It was just fabulous, filled with all the necessary goodies to glam at the holiday parties :)  Definitely, there is no better way to finish this year and to welcome the new year than looking gorgeous with the help of Ipsy. If you haven't subscribe yet, I suggest you to do it. One of my co-workers subscribed to Ipsy.com and she has been over the moon with the products and finding herself waiting to receive her new bag anxiously every month, just like me ;)

My Ipsy bag brought me:

NYX Lose Pearl Shadow in Charcoal Pearl

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in color Zero

Mai Couture Highlighter Papier

Mirabella Prime for Face and Eyes

Be a Bombshell Lip Gloss in hot mess

And my very favorite out of these products is the lip gloss. Once more, I am not a lip gloss fan, but how to say no to this beautiful red color?

I cannot wait to try the rest of the products from my Ipsy bag. I have been very satisfy with my subscription and I cannot wait for more.

Happy Holidays everyone

The Best Hair Accessory For A Perfect Bun

Who isn't getting ready for the holiday parties. I am so excited because this year I would be attending a few parties.

There is not a better occasion than the holidays to get all out and try a new makeup look, a nice hair do and a sexy dress. I ordered these two dresses at Modcloth.com and of course I will decide on one.....mmmmm.

I think I will wear my hair up on a bun, so I got this Bun Maker at my local CVS (I love CVS) It is easy to use and the best hair accessory for a sleek classy bun.

Currently loving.......

I've been loving this mineral foundation from BareMinerals. I love how flawless and shine free my face looks with this, and believe it or not, add moisture to my skin and it has SPF 15!!
I have still yet to get use to its application (practice makes perfect) or maybe I need to find a better application brush. The brush is not so great and makes me work too hard applying this product.......Any recommendations, anyone?
