I love Instagram!

I found myself using this iphone app more lately and have some awesome followers and people I'm following! Everyday I look forward to seeing the cool pictures they post. I believe I had to pay for the app but I noticed that it's free in the app store now, so if you don't have it, get it and if you like.. follow me :-)

Spring is here!


Oh the beautiful colors that Spring brings!


It also brings me to start shopping for it!
These flowers remind me lipgloss colors I would wear. However, this year for the
first time I have decided to try lipsticks for Spring! Every year for Spring I try something new
and this is year it's just that.


I bought these yesterday at Mac, i'm going to start with nude colors
On the left, Shy Girl & on the right, Creme d' Nude
They are pretty light but thats what I was looking for, for now! 
More colors to come.


To welcome Spring, here is a collage of vibrant 
lipsticks to kick it off! ;-)

Don't think I would walk around like this, but cool to look at.

I got Naked!

I finally got it! My Urban Decay Naked Palette! I've been waiting to get my hands on this for almost 7 months. Last week I got word that Ulta was going to add a small batch on Ulta.com, as soon as I found out I went straight to the website to purchase it, As usual I though I would click on the item and it would say out of stock, but it didn't! The following day I went with a friend to Urban Decay at Macy's and found out they had a few too. Sephora and Urban also added them back into their stock, but a few days later they were all out of stock again! 

Let me just say, I LOVE THIS PALETTE! ♥

Came with a mini potion primer, love this stuff!



Colors: Sin, Half Baked, & Toasted

Colors: Sin, Naked, Half Baked, & Hustle

Colors: Half Baked, Smog, Darkhorse, & Hustle

My purchase of the week

At the beginning of the week I did some shopping at M.A.C and Ulta, I've been looking for a new foundation to try for a while, which I NEVER use but need something to help keep my makeup on all day but looks natural. As for primers, I think I found the one! Basically I have tried both of them all week and love the outcome, my makeup still looks fresh at the end of the day! I have heard really good things about Nars Sheer Glow foundation and going to be purchasing that soon. And as for my Sigma Brushes, I'm using them and are the best makeup brushes I have tried by far.


M.A.C Pro Longwear foundation


my color is NC 42


I bought the wipes to wipe it all off, leaves my face luminous


My new primer, leaves my face feeling like velvet!
Very easy to apply makeup over.
