Jem And The Hologram Limited Edition Palette Review!


I had a mixture of happiness and melancholy when I purchased this palette. I was only a little girl when I started watching Jem and The Hologram, it was my favorite cartoon. I remember watching it and then role playing with my sister, obviously I was always Jem! 

Ok so enough about my childhood..... The palette is gorgeous and trust me when I say I was surprised to find out how much I love it. I had already made up my mind that no matter what I would keep it but to have it and love is completely priceless. 

The colors are pigmented, smooth and you have a good selection of colors to choose from. The only thing this palette is missing is a good matte transitional color, there is actually not too many matte colors. This is no surprise, if you watched Jem then you understand that this palette is perfect as is!

Dior Holiday Couture Collection Smokey Eyes - Lips Palette Review!

Untitled #9

Dior is one of my favorite brands to splurge on in makeup, the  brand always seems to impress me with the quality and presentation of their products. However this one did not quite do it for me.... Lets start with the pros, the eyeshadows are beautiful, highly pigmented and go on like butter. The little pouch is adorable, but the lip "maximizer " and lipstick leave so much to be desired. I did not notice andy difference on my lips and there is no pigment to the lipstick, it does smell nice but thats about it. 

Overall its a beautiful palette, the colors are not so different from anything thats out there and the vaseline (lipstick) that comes did not show on my lips at all. I'm glad that I saved my receipt because this one is going back since I can't justify the price for only three eyeshadows.

Lipland Amrezy Liquid Lipstick Review!




If you have Instagram and are into makeup, than you have heard of Amrezy AKA Glamrezy. I started following her a few years back and its amazing to see how far she has come, first with an eyeshadow palette and now lipstick. The sky is the limit for this beauty, I am one to support and root for anyone thats trying to take their dreams and make them a reality. 

Lipland and Amrezy collaborated to create three beautiful liquid lipstick and they really did a great job, the colors are beautiful, super pigmented, and long lasting. The colors glide on smoothly and dries to a matte finish. If you follow me on Instagram (please do) I posted a video showing how long lasting it is, even after I had to scrub it off my arm with a loofa a more soap!

Too Faced Chocolate Bar!


I will admit it, I was not planning on purchasing this palette at all! I don't know why but I think after seeing it so much on instagram I decided I was not going to follow trend.... After walking around sephora for an hour I just kept coming back to it and like chocolate I couldn't resist! The colors are beautiful and very wearable on any skin color.  I love having a good mix of neutrals mattes and shimmery. Oh and the smell is intoxicating I will be using this baby a lot!

Tengo que admitir que cuando salió esta paleta no quería comprarla, y es que la vi tanto en Instagram que medio me aburro de ella. El Domingo pasado después de horas de andar en Sephora y como el chocolate no me pude resistir y la compre. Los colores son bellos, muy usable con una selección de tonos matte o con brillos. Y que les digo del aromo intoxicante de chocolate huele tan rico que me lo quiero comer, voy a darle mucho huso a esta hermosura!

Dose Of Color Matte Lipsticks Review



Nothing can change my mood more then buying new lipstick, I swear nothing else makes me so happy (material wise). I had my eyes on Dose of colors lipsticks for a long time but was hesitant for some reason. However when they added these Matte lipsticks I didn't think twice to try them. 

Nada puede cambiar mi estado de ánimo más que comprar nuevo lápiz labial, te juro que nada me hace tan feliz (material). Yo tenía mis ojos en la line de Dose Of Colors durante mucho tiempo pero dudaba por alguna razón. Sin embargo cuando añadieron estos labiales mate no pensé dos veces de probarlos.


I only liked three out the four colors available, there will also be a beautiful pink one thats coming soon and I already have my eyes on. As far as pigmentation it doesn't get better than this, they don't dry up to matte immediately which is perfect to give you time to clean up any lines and make a perfect lip. Long lasting and just beautiful I will definitely be purchasing more Dose Of Color lipsticks. 

Me gustó sólo tres de los cuatro colores disponibles, también habrá un rosa hermosa que estara disponible muy pronto y ya tengo mis ojos en el. En cuanto a la pigmentación no hay mejor que esto, no se secan hasta mate inmediatamente que es perfecto para dar tiempo para limpiar las líneas y hacer un labio perfecto. Duradero y hermoso yo definitivamente voy a comprar más lápices labiales de  Dose Of Color.

Drugstore Product Of The Week: Revlon Photoready SkinLights!

Right To Left: 300 Peach Light, 400 Bronze Light

I love face illuminators and coming from an oily skin girl it might even be weird since my face can look shiny naturally! There is however a very different glow that can be achieved with the right type of products and these babies are so beautiful I will definitely be getting a lot of use out of them. The bronze is so gorgeous to use on darker skin tones for an all over glow and on lighter skin to add a "bronzed look' by applying only where the sun hits and blending. The peach light is really lovely to use as a highlight or add a few drops to your moisturizer or foundation to add a glow to any look!

Me Encanta utilizar iluminadores y eso que yo ya tengo la cara brillosa, pero cuando utilizas los producos correctos el resultado es hermoso. Estos iluminadores de Revlon son preciosos y los voy a utilizar mucho pues los dos pueden ser utilizados de varias maneras por ejemplo el bronze light lo puedes usar en tu rostro completo si ya eres morenita, o en pieles mas clara para dar un look broceado. El peach light lo puedes mezclar con tu base o crema, y también se pueden usar para darle un brillo al escote también! Quieren ver un video de como yo los utilizo?

Mac Viva Glam Rihanna


I don't know about you but I buy all viva glam lipsticks regardless of the celebrity. I love the idea of buying lipsticks and helping a cause, I was really excited to see what beautiful shade Rihanna was going to help create. 

Yo no sé ustedes, pero yo compro todas las barras de labios Viva Glam, independientemente de la celebridad. Me encanta la idea de comprar barras de labios y ayudar a una causa, yo estaba muy emocionado de ver lo que la  hermosa Rihanna iba a ayudar a crear.

The box comes with Rihanna's signature which is always a nice touch.

 La caja viene con la firma de Rihanna, que siempre es un buen toque.
The outside is a beautiful Ruby red color the lipgloss cap is the same color and also has Rihanna's signature.

El exterior es de un hermoso color rojo rubí de la tapa lipgloss es del mismo color y también tiene la firma de Rihanna.



The lipstick is a pretty frost blue based red with some warmth to it because it has gold shimmer in it, so it makes it really wearable for a lot of people.

 La barra de labios es rojo con tonos azul un poco de calor a la misma, ya que tiene reflejo del oro en ella, por lo que hace que sea muy versatil para un montón de gente.




The lipgloss is beautiful it's is red with a blue base and gold shimmer and looks beautiful alone or over the lipstick.

 El brillo de labios es hermoso que está es de color rojo con una base azul y el brillo del oro y se ve hermosa solo o sobre el lápiz labial.


Here are I have the lipstick and lipgloss together. 

Aquí hay tengo el lápiz labial y brillo de labios juntos.

Overall I'm happy with my purchase, I'm usually not a fan for frost lipsticks but this is a very wearable and pretty color. I love that every cent goes toward helping women, men and children living with and affected by HIV/AIDS. 

 Estoy contenta con mi compra, por lo general no soy un fan de los lápices labiales heladas, pero este es un color muy ponible y bonito. Me encanta que cada centavo se destina a ayudar a las mujeres, hombres y niños que viven con y afectados por el VIH / SIDA.

Good Luck/ Buenas Suerte! Xxx
