Valentines Day 2018 Date Night Inspired Makeup Look Using Only One Eyeshadow Palette!

 Happy February my beautiful people, I am so happy to finally have a video up for you guys. If you follow me on Instagram (you should be) then you saw that I lost almost 4 hours worth of makeup tutorials! Completely erased and as you can imagine I was very upset, but the surprising thing is I was only upset for a few minutes. After that I was just back to business, I tried to recoup as much as I could save and here is this super fun makeup tutorial. 

So there is this "challenge" its been around for at least a year now, where the challenge is to create a makeup look using all the colors of one palette. The real challenge of course is to come up with a wearable look, and my friends I think I accomplished that! Would you agree? 

The Huda Beauty Rose Gold Edition comes with 18 colors, the palettes has mattes, chrome, pressed pearls, and metal eyeshadows. I was very impressed at how most of the eyeshadows blended do nicely together. The pressed pearls and chrome were more tricky to blend but that is to be expected with the formula. 

The staying power was very impressive, the above picture was taken 4 hours after I had recorded the look and everything was still very much set. For people with hooded eyes, this is very rare that the colors don't start to blend in with one another and crease. 

Check out the video below and let me know what other looks I should create for you?

The Makeup Eraser Review!

I finally decide to try the Makeup Eraser and I'm SOLD! My hesitation was obvious, I thought it was another "trendy" product that popular bloggers where talking about that would eventually end up being another too good to be true product. Well I was walking in sephora completely uninspired and unmotivated to buy makeup, yes one of those very uncommon days..... I decided to pick this and another product. If you follow me on Snapchat you know I have been on a no makeup month and so this sat on my vanity for a few weeks. 

Today I took the dust off my makeup brushes and decided to look put together, and I finally got my chance to try this makeup eraser towel. I had a full face of makeup and after wiping my face a few times with the towel wet my makeup was completely off. I was impressed but not completely sold, it still had to pass the toner test. I could not believe it guys The cotton pad was completely clean!!! I swear even after washing my face with face wash a few times I never had pass the toner test.

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!   

Too Faced Le Grand Chateau Review

I decided to start this years holiday shopping early, I tend to leave these type of things for last minute and then end up being all stressed out. I could not resist this beautiful packaging from Too Faced and (along with two other ones) decided to purchase! Too Faced are one of the most creative when putting out holiday packaging, they are always so cute I don't even want to use them. 

The Le Grande Chateau Limited Edition Dollhouse Box comes with three palettes that include 6 eyeshadows, and one blush. It also comes with a trial size of their best selling Better than sex mascara. They each have a theme (occasion) to them. If you decide to buy it to keep it for your self this makes it nicer because its great for traveling. What make this collection such a great one for gift giving is that you can give the whole box to a special person or if you can give each palette to three special people. 

I swathed them and the colors are beautiful, the blushers however I like only two out of three. My favorite palette is Paris After Dark and in second place Paris au Naturale. Check out the pictures of this cute collection and swatches and leave your comments below!

Tunic Dres

Sleeveless Vest: Target Similar, Dress Windsor. Shoes: Steve Madden

As excited as I am for Fall to finally be here, I was so happy to have a 75 degree day so I can wear these sandals and tunic dress. The dress however as pretty as it is, was a major fail for breastfeeding. It was nearly impossible to feed her graciously in publicly, all I can say is thank god she still sleeps most of the day. I wonder if we will have any more of these out of the blue warm days before Winter is officially making everything uncomfortable.

Maxi Wrapped

Dress Lulu's, Shoes Valentino, Lips Mac Ruby Woo 

When deciding if I should buy a top or dress the first requirement lately is, how easy can I pull my boobs out of these? lol! I am very serious thought, breastfeeding is one of the most amazing experiences I get to share with my baby but it can be a pain, especially when you are out in public and the baby wants to eat NOW! I found this dress in one of my favorite websites to shop in and I immediately knew it would become a staple in my closet. It not only fits very flattering but the material is great because it doesn't wrinkle! I paired it with my favorite Valentino Rockstud shoes and red lips!

Cloudy With A Chance Of Red!

Burberry Trench, Blouse Loft Similar, Joes Jeans, Hunter Boots, Louis Vuitton Bag Similar 

New England's weather is so unpredictable, you can never pan too far in advance because you might be too under or over dress. I love these Hunter boots so much because they are so stylish that even if it doesn't rain I don't mind wearing them. I had some running around to do today and I got so many compliments on my boots, I want to buy some other colors!

Fringe Shoes

Shoes Zara, similar Here Dress Auguste, Bucket Bag Similar HERE

I am so happy that it got warmer again, even if its for a few days. I had been obsessing over these shoes from Zara since I bought them a few months back and hadn't had a chance to wear them. Im also in love with this beautiful boho dress and will be wearing it with boots when the weather gets colder again.

My Luxestax Acrylic Cosmetic Organizer!

 I can't believe I resisted this long without owning one of these acrylic makeup organizers. I think that I, along with the rest of the world became obsessed with them after seeing one in 'keeping up with the kardashians'. Well its been many years since I first saw one in that show and these acrylic makeup boxes have not gone out of style. The truth is there are sooooo many companies out there selling these drawers that it can get really overwhelming. Lucky for me after ALOT of research I went with Luxestax and I am so happy with my beautiful makeup organizer. The quality is excellent, my box arrived flawless not one single deffect, I honestly could not have asked for a better makeup organizer. Check out the pictures below to see how I organized mine.....

No puedo creer que después de tantos años de aver visto una de estas gavetas acrílicas en el programa  de las kardashians por fin tengo la mía. Hay tantas compañias que venden  estos organizadores de acrílico que la verdad no me decidía por una. Finalmente me decidí por esta se Luxestax y me encanta. La verdad es que no tengo ni una queja. La calidad es indescutiblemente de primera, la verdad es que tenia temor pero mas perfecta no puede ser. Aquí les tengo fotos de como la organice, este no es todos mi maquillaje pero es una buena parte.....
