Hey hey,
So I recently purchased the Maybelline 24 hour color tattoo in Tenacious Teal which is this gorgeous bright blue color. At first I bought it without thinking cause I was blinded by its gorgeousness; however, when I got home I looked at it and was like how am I ever going to wear this BRIGHT, BOLD color. Well have no fear ladies or gents...here is a fun creative way to wear a bold color!
Hope this helps any of you guys with venturing into bright colors!

Hello beauty lovers,
I just wanted to write this post about the two new palettes I recently purchased. The two palettes are the LA Colors Star Craze 16 eyeshadow palette in BOA and CHI. This post will focus more on the swatches and pigmentation of the palette!
Aren't these palettes super cute! They remind me of little leggo's! Definitely takes me back to my childhood filled with leggo construction and building blocks haha!

THOUGHTS
After swatching all these eyeshadows, the colors you see when you first open the palettes, do not always match the colors you swatch. There is a fine layer on top of each eyeshadow that rubs off after one use and reveals the true color of the eyeshadow. In addition, most of these eyeshadows are shimmery; therefore, if you are looking for matte, I wouldn't suggest this for you....maybe once the layer rubs off more there will reveal matte colors? I love that there are a variety of colors that range from very light to dark providing one with various options for creating stunning eye looks.
One of the best things about these palettes are they only cost $2.99! What?! Thats unheard of....yes I will repeat that....ONLY $2.99!! In addition, the shipping rate is spectacular! Where did I purchase these you ask, well here is the link to the website: http://www.mizoutlet.com/ The specific link to the palettes are http://www.mizoutlet.com/product.php?cid=39&type=cosmetics&cat=eye-shadow&pgSize=24&page=1&pid=2908&pname=more-colors#
I hope this helps in your search for fun colored eyeshadows!
Here's a fun little video/ tutorial for some colorful eye makeup. In addition, it shows my application process of foundation. The foundation shown in this video is one that I am currently trying out but need more time to officially make educated opinion about it. Have fun watching!

While I was watching emilynoel83 on youtube, she showed some dupes for 3 MAC eyeshadows. I decided to share this information with ya'll :) This will save you money and time. Not only is this blog post about the dupes but a review on this product as well.
The eyeshadow is a trio by Wet N Wild called "Walking on Eggshells" it
is an affordable 3$ at your local drugstore. This trio can be used for a
great everyday neutral eye look or can be deepened for a sultry/smokey
nighttime look. The eyeshadow's are very smooth, silky, and creamy to
give you that great color pay off. In addition, they are very well
pigmented and the color can be built up. The color labeled eyelid shows up more as a peachy pink, which makes it very wearable. I would definitely recommend this trio.
Dupes: Onto the dupes...The three mac shadows that look identical to these shadows are Shroom (dupe: the white browbone color), Cork (dupe: the brown crease color), and Naked Lunch (dupe: the pinky peach eyelid color). If you want to see swatches of the MAC eyeshadows check out emilynoel83's youtube channel :)
Everyone has that makeup product that they have been using constantly throughout the month. Well here are my June favorites!
