TweetDuring the last week or so, I have fallen in love with a few beauty items that have really made me happy in terms of beauty. Now that I am an avid makeup and beauty purchaser, I have been recommended some really great items that I have fallen in love with. I wanted to share them with you in hopes that you too come to like them as much as I do! Make Up For Ever Smoky Lash, Extra Black Mascara $22 Being that I’ve only been using mascara for a year or so now, I was having a problem finding one that truly defined my lashes. Make Up For Ever’s Smoky Lash does the trick and then some. Not only do my eyes pop, but my lashes almost look as long as fake ones. I am really happy with this product. Urban Decay 24/7 Glide on Shadow Pencil, Delinquent ...

TweetAs promised, here is my first entry for my 2010 Holiday Gift Guide. Because there are so many items to cover and discuss, expect a Holiday Gift Guide video post from me every week until Christmas. The items featured on my gift guide either have been purchased by me or have been sent to me by various companies.

TweetBlame it on the alcohol. Or the bright hues that jump out at you. Whatever the reason, I have become an Urban Decay fiend. After buying UD’s Book of Shadows Vol. II last year, I have sought out all of Urban Decay’s eye glow. When I went to their site shortly after Book of Shadows III was announced and realized that they were all sold out within minutes of the unveiling, I cried a silent tear. I thought it was over. And then, I spoke to my girl, Melody from AcomplicatedMelody on BBM and she informed me that Book of Shadows III was available online at Sephora. I was elated! I rushed to their site and placed my order. I never thought to check Sephora online because I had been to their stores here in St. Louis and was told it wouldn’t be available until November. Well yesterday, my dream ...

Simply put, the five items that you gotta have in your beauty bag to complete your look. Many of you may use more than five must have items, but for me, there are five things that I must use before going out on a night on the town. Here are my 5 must have beauty items: Pressed Powder- I am addicted to pressed powder to set my look and to control shine. Last November, I began using foundation (I never used it before) but on days when I want a simple clean look without all the gunk, I use pressed powder. It’s a must have for me, especially since I have a t-zone oily area. The powder controls ...

TweetSummer is almost here and soon we will be knee deep in tan lines, beach outings, mosquito bites, and flip flops. There is nothing like the summertime when the days are long and the nights are young. It is also a time when you set aside the heavy, musk scents of the winter and fall for more flirty and floral variations. Here is a list of my four favorite fragrances for the summer: Clinique Happy- After 15 years of being on the market, this still remains one of my favorite floral scents for the spring and summer. It’s light yet flavorful aura continues to make people ask what I am wearing after all of these years, and it only takes a few sprays and lasts all day. This is one of my top picks for the summertime. J’adore L’eau- I was given a sample of this fragrance a few months ...
