Bold Gold: Eye Look & Review

Hey guys! So today I have a review as well as a look for it. This is on Maybelline's Color Tattoo in Bold Gold. As you can see, I created gold eyeliner with the cream. I then topped it with Urban Decay's Half Baked for shimmer and shine. Then I used two mascaras: Covergirl Lashblast and Mabelline's MegaPlush Volume. It was really simple and only used 4 products!



Now, onto the review. This is the third color tattoo I've tried. The first two being Tough as Taupe and Barely Beige. As it says, this is a gold shimmery color with great pigmentation and it stays on forever! No primer necessary. Sometimes if I forget to take my makeup off there will be remnants of this left when I wake up! These Maybelline Color Tattoo's are the best things ever. I love them! Now if only they'd come out with a nude matte one...

Fall Eyeshadow Picks ♥

Hey guys! So out of my eyeshadow, these are my favorites to use in the fall time! I'm still working on my makeup collection and buying more and everything, so I had a limited amount to choose from, but these are the top dogs! I'm hoping soon I'll be going to buy some makeup when I get my allowance because I really want to do some hauls and reviews! Anyways, on to the post!


First, the naked  palette. Of course this is in here! It has the perfect range of light to dark colors, so you can go smokey for fall or keep it natural! Next is the Wet n Wild Comfort Zone Palette. This has amazing pigmentation and is only $5, a definite must have! It has greens and browns so it's perfect for fall!Last is this quad by covergirl in "Pure Romance" It has nice pink and taupe colors which I think is a nice change for fall rather than just smokey browns!

Eyeshadow Look: Natural Smokey




First 3 Pictures With Flash



Last 3 Pictures Without Flash


First I applied NYX Eyeshadow Base
Next, I applied Sidecar with my elf eyeshadow brush to my inner half.
After that I took Smog on the outer half. 
Then, I used buck in the crease with my crease brush.
To add a little more darkness, I used the crease brush and patted some of Darkhorse onto my outer third.
I used Urban Decay's 24/7 Zero Eyeliner and Covergirl Lashblast Mascara.

August Favorites










Hey guys! So today I have my august favorites! Sorry for not posting much this week, I had trouble uploading pictures to blogger, but I found a way to upload them until it's fixed.


Maybelline Dreamfresh BB Cream: my new favorite face product because I don't like foundation, but i looove this

Maybelline MegaPlush Volume Mascara: lengthens, volumizes, separates, and doesn't clump. that's all i have to say

Sugar Rose Lip Treatment: the perfect sheer red tint to your lips, plus moisture

Benefit Some Kinda Gorgeous Foundation Faker: i love how it transforms to a silky finish. I really love this

NYX Beige Lipgloss: my go to color, and it lasts a long time and smells like candy.

Covergirl Shimmering Sands Trio: I used this eyeshadow a lot this month, it's very nice

Products I Regret Buying

So today I'm doing a post about products I regret buying. These are products I definitely wouldn't repurchase. I do have a lot of things I regret buying, but I felt like they all needed to be included. These range from nail polishes, to makeup, and a hair product. I'll put why I won't repurchase them also.


ULTA Nail Polish in Peach Parfait: too streaky
Funky Fingers Nail Polishes: streaky, messy, terrible quality

L.A. Colors Shimmering Loose Eyeshadow: inconvenient packaging, hard to get to the product, the brush it comes with gets smashed and messed up

Covergirl Lipstick in Sugar Almond: too much shimmer, shows the lines in your lips 
NYX Lipstick in Vitamin: too much sparkle
Wet N Wild Lipgloss in Cherish: basically pure shimmer

aussie anti-frizz cream: didn't do anything

Maybelline ultra liner waterproof: I don't like the brush, crumbles when you wear it too long and gets stuck in your eyelashes
elf liquid liner in silver: too liquidy, doesn't apply well
NYC pencil liner: hard to get any color on your waterline, too waxy not creamy enough

elf clarifying pressed powder in ivory: too powdery, too much fall-out, makes you look cakey, you can see the powder on your face

ULTA extreme wear cream eyeshadow in Creme Puff: I have one of these in tiramisu cream that I love, but this one doesn't have as much pigmentation and is hard to find uses for. It's light pink in the packaging but turns to a extremely sheer white shimmery color.
elf duo cream eyeshadow in butter pecan: barely any pigmentation, feels sort of greasy
covergirl quad in pure romance: don't use it much, pigmentation isn't great, shadows aren't easy to work with
revlon quad in neutral khaki's: pigmentation isn't great, lots of fallout when used to much, kind of powdery and messy

elf stipple brush: bristles aren't dense at all


So those are all of the products I regret buying, keep in mind a lot of them were inexpensive, and that's really what you could expect out of some of the products. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this post!

Pure Romance by Covergirl

A few weeks ago I picked up this Covergirl quad in "Pure Romance" I think the name fits it perfectly. These eyeshadows are perfect for a date or a wedding. It even includes a highlight color, for your browbone and your inner corner. Although when you first buy it, it's a bit hard to get the shadows to come off, the more you use it the easier application is. Even the applicator that comes with it works well. The one side is a little more pointed, perfect for applying the darkest color into the crease. The pigmentation isn't necessarily amazing, but the colors work and they are still really gorgeous. 

 To get this look I used my NYX eyeshadow base. Then i applied the 2nd color from the left, a pink-ish shimmery color all over the lid. I put the darker taupe into the crease and used the white for the browbone highlight and the inner corner. I didn't actually use the lightest pink because I didn't really think I needed it.
