New Year Resolutions

This is my last post for 2010!!! Can't believe how fast the year has gone by.


I've been thinking about my Resolutions for the upcoming year, I want them to be more practical and not far fetch dreams.

1. Limit the buying of makeup in a month. I think I can handle this. Maybe at the beginning and the end of the month.
2. Start eating healthy and start working out daily. This one I have to I have a wedding dress to look good in for June! I have the wii active game, and some Tae Bo video's that I love it's just finding time.
3. Be more positive and less negative. Not that I am negative all the time, but when it comes to myself I am very negative.
4. Try to get my spa started in my house! 
5. Get married finally after 3 years of post ponding!

What are your resolutions? Are you going to try to follow them?


Happy New Year!! Have a safe and happy 2011!

My Favorite Brushes

Left to Right

Slanted Liner, Blending, Eye Shadow, Eyelash & Brow Wand, Med Precision, Fan, Blush, Powder

The reason these are my favorite brushes:

 Slanted Liner - Is great for using with cream eyeliner, I have a good control with this brush

Blending- It is big enough for my crease and does a great job at blending in my E/S together

Eye Shadow- Picks up the color great and applies it really well, when my blending brush is dirty this works well to blend. I also use this for my highlighter.

Eyelash & Brow Wand- It does a beautiful job at combing my eyebrows, I think everyone should have one of these brushes.

Med Precision- I use this to apply my E/S to my outer V and apply E/S to my lower lash line, It's small enough that it doesn't pick up alot of product which is good for the lower lash line.

Fan- Great for removing the fall out from your eyes. Or I use it to contour my cheeks and forehead.

Blush- I like the dome shape to this brush, it applies color perfect to my cheeks. I also use it for my bronzer

Powder- This brush it awesome for applying your powder, you can sweep it on or dap the powder on my face. This brush is so soft!

(e.l.f brushes- Blending, Eyeshadow, Wand, Fan, Powder) The other three I got from school I don't know the name, but you can find those brushes almost anywhere.

What are your favorite brushes to use?

e.l.f Minty Lip Gloss Review

Top- Houston, Bottom- New York city

Left- New York city, Right- Houston

If your not a mint fan then these are not for you! It's not to strong but you can sure smell it. The website says

"The sheer glossy color conditions lips with a minty fresh taste. Can be worn alone or layered with other lip products. Give your lips a beautiful sheen and freshen your breath for instant gratification."

Freshen your breath while you wear it! Now that is something new, I couldn't help but laugh when I read that.

They are a very sheer color, they work best when applied over top of a lipstick. I love the New York City color. I'm gonna be wearing that for my Bachelorette party (Sex and the City Theme)

You get alot of product with this gloss, and the packaging is really neat.

The mint helps to plump up your lips, for that full look.

Here are the other colors that elf sells.

Seattle, Nashville, Miami, Los Angeles, Boston, New York City, Chicago, Houston, San Diego

I love the names of the lip glosses! Maybe they should do names for other countries too!

My Rating (1-5 1- the worst, 5- the best)

Quality- 5

Packaging- 5

How long does it stay on- 4.5

Would I buy it again- YES!

Price- $3 (studio line)

Overall- It is a good lip gloss to go over a lipstick, but is a great for a sheer look to

Audrey Hepburn Look

I love breakfast at tiffany's and Audrey Hepburn!!

For this look I used e.l.f cream eyeliner in black and 100 palette, lipstick in classy

This look is really easy.

You want a nude color all over your lid

Dark Brown in your crease

Highlighter under your brow

Fill in your brows Audrey Hepburns start Big and go Small, but if you don't have full brows do the best you can.

Apply your cream eyeliner, starting in the inner eye working outwards and make a wing. You want your eyeliner to arch in the middle of your lid, we are trying to stay away from Arabic eyeliner look. Apply white eyeliner on your lower water line. It will make your eyes look bigger. If you want you can apply false eyelashes or apply 3 coats of mascara.

You want a rosy cheek and not alot of contouring. Finish with a soft nude/pink lip.

Finished now you have a Audrey Hepburn look! Enjoy

Favorite products of 2010

This is going to be a long post, so hold tight. I bring you my favorite 10 products of 2010

1. Maybelline The COLOSSAL Volum' Express Mascara. I love this mascara, I had to many compliments on my eyelashes people thought I wore false ones!

2. Rimmel Extra Super Lash Mascara. After using my colossal mascara I was a little nervous using a new one. This one blew my mind! You can build your eyelashes from natural to dramatic. It looks amazing!

3. Rimmel Natural Bronzer 021 SUN LIGHT. This bronzer is perfect for year round. It has a very very small amount of shimmer. I use to contour my cheeks, it looks so natural.

4. e.l.f Mineral Eyeshadow Primer. This was the first eye primer that I ever used. I works great on my oily lids. My eyeshadow has never creased, and stays on all day!

5. e.l.f High Definition Powder. OMG!!! This is amazing! I wear this when I know there are going to be alot of cameras. It gives you the flawless look, smooths out your skin.

6. e.l.f Cream Eyeliner Black. I love this eyeliner, I have more control over this then a liquid eyeliner, it glides on so smooth and stays on all day.

7. Blush Baby Mineral Pigment. These pigments are smooth and silky and the color pay off is great! You get alot of product in the little container.

8. Annabell SkinTrue Foundation- Nat Ivory. This foundation gives me a matte finish and is great for my oily and dry skin. I get great coverage from this product.

9.  Clean and Clear Dual Action Moisturizer. I only apply this to the areas that have the most breakout so my chin, nose and forehead. It's very moisturizing and dries out the pimples at the same time. I noticed a big difference using it.

10. Loreal Sublime Bronze One Day. This was my go to summer bronze product. I love it because it washes of the next day and you can see where you applied the color. Doesn't make you look orange. I love that it has a pump and not a squeeze tube. Great for special occasions.








So there you have it my favorite products of 2010! I can't believe that it's almost over!!!
