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?

MAC + Nicki Minaj Pink Friday Lipstick: Info + Swatches

By on November 23, 2010 in Archive, Makeup Looks

Nicki Minaj and MAC Cosmetics have teamed up to bring you a new satin lipstick, Pink Friday.  This is a limited edition lippie, available for the next four fridays only via maccosmetics.com. Minaj isn’t one of my favorite artists, but I love that she always has fun with her makeup!

Here’s a swatch of the lipstick on my arm in natural light.

Analysis: This a little too light for my liking. I don’t think it’s any different than any other bubble gum pink out there. If I did wear it, I would pair it with a darker gloss, like Funtabulous Dazzleglass. After I get through my current dark red lip phase, I’ll give this a whirl! I had a matte pink lipstick phase {pics here} a few years ago, when I found Gladiola lipstick. I really like that the lipstick is satin, so you can make it frosty or glossy.

Purchase Here: Pink 4 Friday

Price: $14.oo

A sample of this lipstick was provided for blog post consideration.

Lip of The Day: Pink and Perky!

The pink lip! I can’t deny that it’s one of my favorites. Here’s a tame lip look that will look divine on all skin tones, from the lightest to the darkest! This week, I’m relying on my MAC Pro lipmix again. These are so great to have. You can smudge them in with your finger to create a stain, plus they’ve got tons of pigment. I’m sure I’ll have every color soon!

Let me tell you why I purchase glosses from Becca. They aren’t sticky, they last for a good while, there’s no taste and the colors aren’t found in every other company’s inventory. After you try your first one, you’ll see why.

MAC Show Orchid Lipstick…Stunning!

By on July 13, 2009 in Archive

After watching the BET Awards (running away in embarrassment) last week, I was compelled to wear more bright colors.  It was so refreshing to see people wearing color that night, my favorite of which being Keyshia Cole.  The show ended around midnight, but like any other inspired makeup junkie, I tried on the color right then because I couldn’t wait until the morning!  I bought this a few months back, and I’m so happy that I did!  It’s an incredibly rich pink, and a little goes a long way.  MAC Amplified lipsticks are quickly becoming my favorite texture.  They’ve got plenty of color payoff and feel great on the lips.  I lined my lips with Currant lip liner.  If you like the color, check your local counter or store, they may still have a few of these left.  If not, you can always order this particular shade at MAC Pro!  You’ll have to call the customer service number if you aren’t a MAC Pro member.

P.S. I’m sponsoring a MAC gift card giveaway on the SB forum!  All you have to do is follow the instructions here.  Good Luck!!!
