LUSH COSMETICS

                                                                                 SAVING FACE SERUM
Saving Face contains thyme infusion to alleviate problems, while the grapefruit and lime oils tone and refresh your face by mopping up excess oils and making your skin sparkle. http://www.lushusa.com/shop/products/face/serums/saving-face
I have combo/oily skin , I have spots where I get really dry and my t-zone which gets super oily. I went to the lush store while I was in vegas and this is what they gave me...I love this stuff, I only use it at night because I feel it's a bit heavy to use during the day.
You have to rub the little bar ( and I mean little ) between your hands and transfer it to your face. It was a little weird for me at first, but once u figure it out it's pretty easy. It moisturizes my skin like no other..I can't believe I didn't know about this long time ago.
My skin feels so smooth and soft when I wake up and my makeup goes on way better now..

HERBALISM CLEANSER
Herbalism should be used on oily and problem skin. It is a green, squidgy, putty-like paste made from powdered herbs, which are actually perfect for the skin. http://www.lushusa.com/shop/products/face/cleansers/herbalism
I don't know if I would call this a cleanser because I think of it more as a scrub..it's really gentle on skin, lots peaple complain about the smell but honestly it doesn't bother me at all..its not so bad. I use this every night right after I remove my makeup with wipes and cleanse my skin with my clinique cleanser. It removes all the dead skin and leaves it really smooth...just became my new fav product, can't wait to try other LUSH products...

Viva Glam Gaga 2

 Been waiting for the launch of this new lipstick from lady gaga...it's a very nude lip color which would look gorgeous with a very smokey eye look:)
                                 Keep in mind this swatch is done on my NC40 skin tone
                                                                         Without flash....
                                                     With flash...
Love this color, it's way more wearable than the first one that came out which is a barbie pink that not all skin tones can pull off!  Let me know what u think of this new shade...

Would You Rather -Beauty Edition..

So I was tagged to answer these "would you rather" questions so here it is...


1) Would you rather go out with messy hair and nice make-up or nice hair and no make-up?
            *Definitely messy hair and nice make-up..u can always put your hair up or wear a hat

2) Would you rather shave your eyebrows or have your eyelashes fall out?
            * I rather shave my eyebrows, I can always draw them in


3) Would you rather be forced to shop at only MAC or Sephora for the rest of your life?
            * Hands down Sephora..it's your one stop store for everything


4) .Would you rather wear lipgloss/lipliner look or 80's perm?
            * Lipgloss/lipliner look...I already do that now :)


5) Would you rather leave the house with an obvious foundation line or overdone blush?
            * Overdone blush..I really feel bad when girls have the obvious foundation line


6) Would you rather wear MC Hammer pants or biker shorts in public?
            * This one is a hard one because I don't like either one of them...ummm..ok biker shorts


7) Would you rather have a bad orange-y spray tan or really weird tan lines that can't be covered?
            * Wow I guess weird tan lines because I really don't want to walk around looking like              an orange


8) Would you rather have a bad haircut or bad hair color?
            * Bad hair color...u can always dye it back


9) Would you rather have youtube or twitter taken away forever?
            * Easy "Twitter" I love youtube..couldn't be without my make-up tutorials ;)


10) Would you rather give up using makeup brushes or mascara?
            * Brushes hand down..u can always use your best tools which are your hands...mascara just opens up your eyes


So I hope you enjoyed these questions and I tag everyone that reads this...leave me a comment with your answers :)

Makeup storage thanks to Office Depot!!

So this is what I found at my local Office Depot, I thought it was really cute and slim so it doesn't take up too much room. El hubb was already getting tired of seeing my makeup all over the bathroom or in our closet but I have so much that I needed something like this. So here are the pics...

my every day products

blushes/bronzers
eye products
palettes
foundations/concealers
