Lip Products!

   So Today I decided to do my lips products. I don't have very many, I just got into lips because before I didn't feel like I could pull it off! I don't have any name branned besides Trish McEvoy. But other than that enjoy! I also have a few things I made(you'll see). I grouped products together because if I did not, I would have a lot of pictures! Thanks so much for reading! Like always, comment, request, and follow on twitter!

Oh! After I go through the products I'm thinking of doing a video on my vanity and storage! Let me know if you would want to see it! Now, Lets get started!!!!!
first:  'maybellines pink sand'- The name really fits it, but I find it too be way to shimmery for me. I like to go matt on the lips or just a little shimmer
Second:  'covergirls rose quartz-  a very pertty pink, and really frsoty, I like to add a pretty light pink gloss over it and then it is tottaly wear-abble!
third: 'L.A colors'-This a very pretty peach, almost orange color. and I must say it looks really good on me!


This is all my 'wet n wild' lip colors. They dont have names though!
first is a very bright matt red, the second is a very deep burgandy color,the thrid is my fav! it is a very pretty matt pink color, and that last two are shimmery pretty light colors but the second to last is more of a champagne color and the last is more peach(which I love!)

These are most of glosses(I know I have a ton right!) first two are no-named avon colors, light red, and a light pink, and the last is a 'trish McEvoy color, more details about it in my first post.

these are my elf colors the both light pinks and the first is 'bubble gum' and the last is 'baby lips' I love these both!

These are my chapsticks that I love! the first is a burts bees, middle im not sure, third is avon, and last is blistex! I love these!

These are my very messy 'trish McEvoy' palletts in 'celebrate' They are the same. Im not sure if you can get these in stores or not, they were given to me by the same person who gave me the 'alexis vogel' I love these even though they are really messy!

 Look at all my lip pencils! lol There are just some 'jesse's girl' 'covergirl' and something else wich I am not sure! My favorite is the 'Jesse's girl' in  'melon sorbert' It is supper pretty!
These I made out of pigments, vassaline(which is GREAT for your lips), and I also put in some strong flavored and scented lip gloss that gave it a great texture! I love these!

hope you enjoyed! comment, request, and follow on twitter!(and here!)

Mascaras!

So I decided to do another post like my last one on blushes. That took my a while to do with uploading all the pictures on here, but I decided to do it again! This time I am going over all my masacaras. I had a lot of fun when doing my blushes! But first I wanted to say a few things! I now have four followers! Which is great! I enjoy this a lot! Some of you commented on my posts and I wanted to comment back. I don't know if it went through but I really wanted to comment back! I also recently bought a wet n wild pallet. Well I didn't buy it, but a store closing down in my town has a lot of cheeper makeup and hair items(score!). And the pallet was free! So That will be my next post! I'm going to eat my banana yogurt and drink my ice tea and start to add the pictures! Hope you enjoy and don't forget to follow, comment, and leave some requests!

'Covergirls Lash Exact'
This was my second mascara into my collection, I don't use it as much anymore but I have repurchased it.....three times. I know you are suppose to follow the three month rule. But I don't throw away a mascara until I have used it all up. I know that you're are suppose to follow the use but I have never gotten and eye infection(knock on wood!) But I like this mascara because it separrates each lash and looks so pretty. It does not lengthen a lot, but a good amount.
   
'Maybelline Great Lash' 
 This mascara is so famous and studies have shown that this beats out all mascaras! I love this mascara! I find it gives my great volume and length. I do stray from this, but find myself coming back to it. This is not water proof. And I'm going to say this now, I hate waterproof mascara because I find it is a HUGE pain to get off!


'NYX Doll Eye' in water prooff
I love this mascara, but I don't wear it a lot due to it not being waterproof! This really does give you a doll eye look if you spend enough time working it through your botthem lashes! I think if this was not waterproof I would reach for it a lot more. But this is a great mascara and I think I am going to repurchase this in non waterproof!

'Maybellines Colossal Volume Express' in 'Absolute Black'
I love all my mascaras in absolute black, or as black as the come! I also really love this mascara! I get sooooooo many complements when I wear this! I give my lashes amazing volume and lenght! I will buy this until the day I die! If I could only have one mascara I think it would be this or lash blast! Lash Blast is not in this because I recently ran out! But if I spend like 5 legit minuts on putting on Lash Blast I get the best lashes ever! Same with this!

'Maybelline's Falsies Volumes Express Mascara' in
waterproof.
I accidently bought this without thinking, I got this in not only waterproof, but in brown too! I however am not a fan of this! The brush I find to be horrible and it clumps! I find this to flake off a lot. I might like this better if not waterproff, so I might re-buy in black, and in non waterproof. Until then, I really do not like it.

'Revlon Double Twist' in waterproof :{ lol
At first I did not like this, but later tried it again and did like it.
I do not remeber if it clumps, or flakes because I havent worn this in a while. But I think I will wear this soon to try it out again.

I think this is my very first mascara! of course I have repurchased it. It is a mary-kate and Ashley mascara! This is like my fourth because before I really got into makeup I thought this was the best thing ever!

'Loreal's Voluminous Million Lashes'
This is my moust recent mascara purches, it is about two weeks old. My first reaction to this was nothing crazy but after working with it I leanred I Love it. I dont reach for it every day But I do like it!

   So this is all of them! I hope you enjoyed! Also follow me on twitter! http://twitter.com/#!/Sb_lkr  I don't have a lot of tweets because I have no followers lol! but once I have some more I will start tweeting!

Blush, Blush, and More Blush!

   So today I was thinking about sharing all my blushes with you. I dont have many compared to a lot of other makeup gurus(not calling myself a guru :). There is also not a lot of high-end but a few! I am happy to say that most blushes showed up true to color and if one does not, I will let you know! I hope you enjoy, and don't forget to comment!
This is my 'hard candy, blush crush baked blush' in the color 126 'pin up'
this is pure shimmer but I found it makes a fantastic high-light in the c shape around the outter part of your eye!

This is a light pink blush from the 'mac hello kitty' line, I do not have the name of it but it is a really pretty light pink blush the lights up the face! I find this to be great for anything skintone!

This is an 'Alexis vogel' blush, now I mentioned in my first blog post that you can not buy Alexis vogel unless you buy the kit. I do not own the whole kit, I also metioned before the frew products I have from the kit was given to me by a family friend. But the is a very pretty rosey pink blush the has a very pretty glow. When I wear this I do not reach for a high-light, for the glow from the blush is enough!
  
This a blush I actually made from a couple broken blushes and a broken highlight. I finished braking them until they were a fine powder. You then mix the pwder with rubbing alcohol or a mixing medium. This is a really pretty rosey pink with golden undertones.

This is a very deep rosey color from 'nyx cosmetics'. The color is 'desert'

This is 'Maybelline's dream mouse blush' in '10 pink frosting'
It applies nicley, and blends out well. I love the color and is the perfect Barbie pink, I just don't like the large glitters in it.

This is 'hard candys hide and glow cheek tint duo' in the color 'in love 315'
It applies great and blend amazingly! The color isn't very pigment though, if you want a light color to your cheeks this is perfect! I normaly use this as a base to my blush, it gives the blush something to hold on to without makeing you look like you caked on the blush.
This is a 'Lancome' pallett the I resived for free from a friend. I do not know what it is called. I loved taking a blush brush  and swriling it around in the blush and two eye shadows to make an amazing blush color!

This is the 'e.l.f. blush and bronzer duo'.
It is obviously ment to be a doup for the 'Nars Lagoona bronzer and orgasm' blush and bronzer duo 
But I must say I love the bronzer and the color of the blush looks amazing on the cheeks! My only wish for the blush was no sparkles in it.


This is a no named brand blush. But I love this red color! This is a really cheep makeup kit blush but the pigmitation is beautiful!Yeah I have hit pan, this is a pretty color, but im shocked i hit pan considering I dont use it all too much.

This is an 'NYC  cheek glow' in the color 'riveside rose'
Its a really soft pretty rose red color and does blend well but the color is not too pigmented...
This is a 'covergirl true cheek' blush. but the back kinda got ripped off so I dont know the name of it.
I love this color! it looks really pretty and nautrual on my skin. I have had this for a while But it does not look like I use it a lot. This is because of the pigmintation! It is so pigminted that you only need a little bit and you are set to go! This is probally my favorite Summer Blush!
This is 'e.l.f' om the color 'pink passion' I love this light pink color it looks so darling on the cheeks, and I feel is great for al skin tones. This pigmintation isnt the best. but for only three dollars this is an amazing blush that has to be one of the top favorites!


I know I dont have an amazing collection but I do love what I had! Thanks so much for stopping by! And don't forget to come back!

Don't be Afraid of color!

I took a trip the other day to Target with my mom. I purchased an e.l.f. blush in 'pink passion'. My mom was looking at the blush and tells me it is way too bright! I explained to her the blush looks bright but with the right amount it is just a lighter pretty pink! Then I got to thinking about begginers or anyone else out there that feels the way my mom did.
So I took the blush and and bright crazy plum color lipgloss from Trish McEvoy(I can not tell you where to purchase the gloss, for it was a gift, sorry!). I want to show you that wearing bright crazy colors are okay. I want to show you that they are not as birght as they look, if you apply them in a different way. I would hate for anyone to not buy such a pretty color because you think you cant pull it off, you most certantly can!


Here is the 'pink passion' blush from e.l.f


This is the blush swatched on my hand(with a primer under neath). As you can see it is not nearly as bright, but suddle and pretty!


This is the e.l.f. brush I use with it(I love it!). This is the 'studio powder brush'. It is really just a flat kabuki brush!

This is the Trish McEvoy gloss. It does not have a name that I can see. But it is a deep, but bright, pulm color, with some small pink sparkles.

The color swatched on my hand shows the orginal color, the color not blended out, and then a small amount of color, blended out. As you can tell its still a pretty plum color but not as bright, and very easy to pull off!



And sorry for any miss spelling!
