Don’t look to these glosses for kiss-worthy lips. Readers say these left their lips chapped, goopy and worse
13 Ickiest Lip Glosses

This is a TotalBeauty.com lip makeup article

From glosses that “smell like moth balls” and “feel like little bits of broken glass,” it’s safe to say that these are best left in the 99 cent bin. Don’t waste your money on these awful lip products.

See the list

No. 13: LORAC Lip Polish, $17.50

TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 5.9

This is “somewhat sticky, not very long lasting,” and “not worth the price.”

No. 12: E.L.F. Plumping Lip Glaze, $1

TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 5.7

“Not only does it not plump your lips, but it smells so disgusting. I can’t even describe the scent …”

No. 11: Sally Hansen Lip Inflation Extreme, $9.49

TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 5.7

“Smell: hideous. Taste: awful. Price: outrageous. Fullness: no change.”

Funky Brown Foodie: Korean Dinner at Shin Chon Garden

By on March 29, 2011 in Archive, Scandalous Foodie

My honey took his favorite girls out to dinner this weekend.  In my attempt to upgrade myself and eat foods from other cultures, we ventured to Shin Chon Garden in Ellicott City.  Reviews stated it was an awesome place to go, newly renovated, very authentic, super tasty. We had two options, grill or barbecue.  We took the grill option, but we probably should have taken the bbq route. The only Korean meal I’ve ever had is fried chicken, and oh boy, it’s incredible.

Crown Brush Review: C320 Pro Precision Pointed Powder Brush

By on March 28, 2011 in Archive, Reviews

This week is dedicated to one of my favorite brands, Crown Brush. I bought 5 brushes during a Hautelook sale a few weeks back, and every day is dedicated to a new brush. I love Crown Brush because it’s inexpensive, effective, and competes with even the most expensive brush lines.  I always get a few when I go to The Makeup Show.

Haute Blogger: Watch & Analyze What Your Readers View On Your Blog

By on March 25, 2011 in Archive, Blogging

Oh Independent Fashion Bloggers website, how I love thee. While reading 5 Helpful Sites to Analyze Your Blog, they shared a link to mouseflow.com. This website actually lets you watch and analyze what people do while on your blog! Seriously…it’s a recording of people clicking links, reading articles, trying to steal your content, and all the other normal things that readers do!  It was super creepy at first, and I kind of felt like I was spying! But seriously, you should take a gander. It was totally worth it.

As the World Turns

Edited by Fajr of StylishThought.com

With so much going on in the world, the Japan earthquake, the upheaval in Libya, the aftermath of John Galliano’s actions and the social phenomenon that is Charlie Sheen, it’s great to see the fashion blogging community talking about the issues and bringing a little light with the fancy of fashion! Included in this week’s amazing links: Shopping to Aid Japan Relief, an outfit post for Charlie Sheen, exploring the new neon trend and behind the scenes of how Hermes scarves are made!

Style: My Name is Erin and I’m Obsessed with African Print!

By on March 21, 2011 in Archive, Fashion

It all started while watching A Different World. It was the episode when EnVogue guest starred, and Charmane, Lena and Whitley wore African Print dress. This could be one of the worst images ever, but it gives you the idea!

Then, I find this image of Nicole Ari Parker. Umm, I need this dress, like last year. This shirtdress was created by brand Kiki, based in Ghana.

Look Of The Day: Light Sparkly Eye and A Fleshy Pink Lip

By on March 18, 2011 in Archive, Makeup Looks

This was a super simple, 6 minute look.  I was having dinner with some friends, and wanted to step out of the neutral zone.  Here’s what I came up with. The look was inspired by Oprah’s look when she interviewed Nadya Suleman [aka octomom] last week. I didn’t realize that I rely on MAC for a lot of my looks! Thought I switched it up, but maybe not?

Eyes

MAC Paint You Up Paint Pot(lid)

Make Up For Ever Cream Liner in Black

MAC Zoom Lash Mascara

Face

MAC Studio Fix NW43

Lips

NYX Lipliner in Auburn

NYX Lipliner in Expresso

MAC Fabby lipstick

MAC Nymphette Lipglass

MAC Jeanius Collection Biker Blue Nail Lacquer : Review + Swatches

By on March 16, 2011 in Archive, Reviews, Swatches

I wish this image did this color justice! I really don’t like frosty nail polishes, especially ones packed with microscopic glitter. BUT, Biker Blue Nail Lacquer ($14) is just fabulous! I had been a fan of the famous Chanel Blue Satin, the first polish I ever finished. This one is just a bit brighter, but of course not the same quality. I had to use 3 coats, because one is just a mess and two is close to being nice. Either way, I’ve been getting compliments all week and I love, love, love it!  Check out MAC Biker Blue Nail Lacquer here!

Note: This product was sent to me for possible review by the company.
