I am so excited for Sigma Beauty's New Collection!

If you love vegan brushes, Sigma Beauty has a new line called Bunny Collection, which is vegan! They are adorable and super soft. From what I seen, this is a great collection!

I recently in the past couple of weeks bought two collections from STC, one being $45% off! I wanted more colors from this brand because she is one of my fav independent cosmetic brands. I like to represent them as much as I can, and also crossing my fingers because I want to someday be a promoter. :)

• White Chocolate in the tear duct area
• Milk Chocolate on the lid and blended into the crease
• Dark Swiss on the crease

I made a recent purchase with STC and I have been wanting her first collection since it came out a few months ago. It is all matte and beautiful neutrals!

Check it out!
You can get it for $13 here !

A couple of months ago I decided to try Cover Girl's foundation I use to wear back in 2007. I did not know much about makeup then; I've grown a lot since then.


Here is what I have to say about Cover Girl's Aqua Smoothers Liquid Makeup and Compact Makeup

I have been playing with all of my recent new nail polishes and it is quite relaxing. I never was a nail polish lover(as in used it that often), but I have grown to love them because I enjoy it more.

Here is a design I did last night and how you can do it:

I decided to create a look inspired by Lung Cancer Awareness Month, and this is what I came up with. I looked up what color ribbon this is under and I got either Pearl or Clear.

Thus came this... I added blue because I wanted some color. :)

I did a review on this brand a while back and she messaged me asking me to help spread the news that she is selling a set and some of the earnings will go towards Lung Cancer Research!

This is what she said: I’m selling the set for $15 and donating $10 to the Lung Cancer Association (the additional $5 should cover shipping and materials *fingers crossed*).

Go to her shop and support this great cause! :)

This is her facebook page explaining the cause/ and how you can reserve your set!: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=199955816747669&set=a.112815885461663.18047.109270809149504&type=1&theater

Also, click here to shop!

Also, you can read about how she was inspired to do this set right here! Sarah-beth story is told there. :)

I would love if you told her I sent you to her facebook page. :)

Thanks for reading!

Hello readers.

Today was a neutral fall look. I love Fall and I love Fall colors. Oranges, reds, browns, and yellows. You name it!

Here is my look!

• First I used my favorite, must have eye primer, Too Faced Shadow Insurance!
• I used a crease brush and swept MAC eyeshadow in Brun(a nice deep brown) into the crease. I added more until I liked the boldness.
• Next I add Madd Style Cosmetics Birthday Suit(a nice light flesh color) on the brow bone.
• Then I added Madd Style Cosmetics Mystery Meat(a unique lighter brown) into the crease to add color.
• Last I added Madd Style Cosmetics Pish Posh(a nice glittery bieghy brown) on the lid.
• I used a black L'Oreal liner
• Lastly, I used a NEW L'Oreal mascara Voluminous Falseies Fiber

Today I was hanging out with my family and my mother-in-law asked if I wanted to do our nails together. She bought a cute little halloween color nail set and I decided to have some fun!

This is the nails I came up with for the halloween weekend. :)

• Use any orange nail polish you own and color every finger nail
• Use three coats if they are cheap, light nail polish like mine haha
• Use a tooth pick and stick it in your black polish and carefully create a jack-o-lantern face on the thumb nail of each hand(it can be quite tricky)
• Add a clear sparkle polish on both ring fingers

These are just a few that I would grab for the most during September. I always forget something, but I think this may be all of the products that are my Sept. favs! :)

• Yes to cucumbers Soothing Facial Towelettes- These are very nice and in this picture those are my third purchase of them. They are easy to carry around, take off your makeup, and makes your skin feel clean. It's my go to product when I am too lazy to wash my face.
• Maybelline Falshies Mascara- This mascara is my fav so far, in the drugstore world, and it just makes your lashes the perfect length and volume! 
• Jurlique Moisturizing Hand Sanitizer- this is great for on the go or taking to work. It smells nice and does not dry out my hands! I got this in my Sept. Birchbox!
• Stilla eye shadow in Moonlight- I got this in my Birchbox a few months back. It is a great highlight for brows and cheek bones. It is a perfect satin white!
• Madd Style Cosmetics pigment in Coco Puff- this was my fav brown this month and it was one of my newest addition. :)
• Madd Style Cosmetics Pop n' Lock shadow base- Love this white base! It really helps makes your colors pop!
• Too Faced Shadow Insurance- I have this in every month's favorites because so far this is the only eye primer that works perfect for me!
• NYX Eyeshadow palette in Dune- this is a very great neutral palette and I also got a new one!
• Sweet Treat Cosmetics pigment in Strawberry Daiquiri- Lovely shade of pinky red, and it goes great with neutrals!
• 100% Pure Cheek and lip tint in Peach Glow- this is very natural and easy to use! I love throwing this on when I need a quick look.
• Madd Style Cosmetics Lip Bomb in Fun House- this smells amazing and really moisturizes the lips!
• Makeup Forever HD powder- I cannot get enough of this stuff! It is just perfect for mattify and setting makeup. It gives your face such a healthy glow!
• Sweet Treat Cosmetics lip gloss in ButterCream- smells just like what it says and is so subtle and smooth!

As I was driving home with my hubby from church today, the cloudy sky and bright green grass(from the rain) inspired me to make this look. :)

• MSC pigment in Cob Webs in the tear duct
• MSC pigment in Acid Bath on the lower lash line
• MSC pigment in Frankenstein on the lower lash line
• Providence and Grace pigment in Pewter on the lid
• MSC pigment in Toxic Love Spell on the crease
• MSC pigment in Sparkel Motion on the brow bone
• Maybelline Falsies mascara
• Makeup Forever Aqua liner in black

In this showdown we have four fighters:

• It makes your skin SUPER soft to the touch after you apply it all over your face.
• It feels silky smooth when applying.
• It stays on for a long time.
• It mattifies oily skin!
• It is translucent so it will work for everyone!
• It does not look powdery and blends into your skin perfectly.
• It does make your bare skin look better even without foundation because it fills in those fine lines and gives you a very nice natural glow.
• The product lasts forever because of how much is in it and how little you need to use!

• It does not look powdery on the face after applying
• It has a very yummy smell, as though it was pixie sticks!
• It helps mattify the skin
• It lasts decently on the face
• Price is reasonable (not sure of the price because it is not in stock right now) less than $10
• It is VEGAN!

• It truly does mattify your oily skin very very well!
• It holds up very well
• It does not have glitter or shine
• Fills in fine lines
• It is VEGAN!
• Price is reasonable $10.99 for 30 grams

I got this idea from MakeupGeek on youtube and I love this look!

 I used killa monroe compelled pigment all the lid and crease! All you need is a very nice neutral color on the top.

Many of you have heard about Hurricane Irene in the East Coast of the US. I am in VA and where we are, we were completely fine. I sure hope everyone else was/is. Yesterday, I was in my room playing with makeup and came up with a few looks, one inspired by the storm.
