NEW POST ON "FACES"

GLOW AHEAD: SPRING SKIN |TAKE A PEEK!

Skin! It's our body's largest organ! And, we want it to glow, don't we? Without getting knocked up, I've managed to find a good glow fitting of warmer weather. If you're still working on yours, this may help.

All That Glitters

It's Toe-Tally Sumer by O.P.I. - A Bright Pink w/ Blue undertones

Rockstar Pink by Sally Hansen - Pink, Blue, Red, Purple Glitter

I'm no pro when it comes to doing nails, as you can see. I'm not the most precise, but I do know good pairings when I see em'. So if I can't make it to the salon, I'll still attempt my own manicure.

GALITTER! So damn glittery. I'd have to say that my nails are pretty festive, and I'm rather giddy. Or at least the drag queen in me is.

 I used to think that glitter was just for little girls obsessed with pink and princesses, but I think I'm only now growing into my girlie side. 

The glitter is courtesy of  my friend at Bohemian Rose Rhapsody. Thanks Britt! I'll have to invest in my own  bottle soon.

XOXO

A woman's maturation can be measured by her lip product of choice.

We start off with fruit flavored, fun smelling sparkly lip balms. Around middle school, we've matured to reflective glittery lip glosses.
When lipstick becomes the choice for a perfect pout, then the evolution is complete.

I have only recently started investing in my lipstick collection. I love it. The color oomph is what I like the most. A good lip color adds as much detail to your style as a good pair of shoes or earrings would.

These are some of my favorites from my growing collection.

NYX Hebe- A rich pearlescent deep red 

Every woman needs a good red lipstick (I have many), but this would be great on darker skintones since it's a deeper red, with brick undertones. 

NYX Chloe- 80's Shimmery Magenta-Pink

This color is perfect for nights out when you want to go back in time. 

Dior Addict #783 Opulent Mauve - Creamy Plum Mauve

This is a great fall color. It's rich and it's not very shimmery. It's a sophisticated color.

Avon Satin Moisture Coral Blaze - Creamy Peachy Coral

This color is perfect soft summer spring color. It's very moisturizing too. 

N.Y.C. Blossom - Hot Neon Shimmery Pink

This color. Where to start. Definitely a night out color. Or for a bright flirty daytime look. 

Kiss New York Nude Beige- Soft Matte Nude

Classic J.Lo Nude Lipstick. Every make-up collection needs it. 

Neutrogena Moistureshine Angel's Blush - Baby Pink

A simple soft baby pink. It's a great spring color. 

Dior Addict #859 Ravishing Rose -Bright Pink

This color is everything I wanted in a pink color. It's bright and matte, but creamy. There's not a hint of glitter or shimmer. It's the best summer/spring feminine color I have.

J'adore Dior

If you don't know by now (you should) I'm a big dork for anything make up related. Luckily, my friends know just how much I love this stuff that when one of them had an invite for an event, she turned to me.

Last week I went to a private Dior showcase as a plus one with one of my friends. The fact that this was make up made me happy, but that it was Dior sent me over the moon. It was a very cute event. Buffet catered by Mimi's Cafe, Black Dior Curtains, white silken table cloths, but I digress. None of this is what really mattered.

It was the make-up! We had a Dior Fashion Show make up artist from Canada showing us the ropes of behind stage make up. Not only were we getting free products, but we were learning how to use them. Although I knew most of the tips he was teaching us,  it was still exciting to be there and play with Dior makeup, a brand I'd never really looked into.

Just Bitten: A Pretty Review

I have a loaded arsenal of lip products, but my stash was lacking the newest trend in lipwear: The Lipstain.

There are many out on the market, but I figured it'd be best to start small and work my way up. I went with a new Revlon product, Just Bitten Lipstain+Balm. I'm not sure why this particular one called out to me but it did, and here are the stats.

Revlon Just Bitteb Lipstain+Balm 

• Priced at $7.99 - I'd prefer a 5.99 price tag
• Packaging - 2 in 1 form, Convenient and Cute
• Color Payoff - Great, after the 15th swipe
• Balm Quality - Perfectly Moisturizing,  No Glossiness
• Scent - Fruity Candy Smell
• Kiss Test: Budgeproof, Smooch On
• Overall Grade - 8/10

Verdict: For a first lipstain, I like it. I will definitely be investing in more of these long lasting colorful lippies!
