Makeup Bag for this Week


Hi everyone and welcome back. For today I have a brief, hopefully. This time I want to share with you guys what I brought in my makeup bag this week. Before I start I would like to apologize if the pictures are not the best quality, I was at work when this post came to my mind and I used my phone to take the pictures. Anyways, enough blabing and let's get started.



For eyeshadows I chose a Tarte palette that I bought last Christmas and was part of their Holiday sets. It has 20 eyeshadows that include both shimmer and matte finishes. I also brougth this little L'oreal HiP duo, in the color Adventurous, that I bought through and online store named MAKEUPLOVERSBYMA and she has drugstore products and very nice offers. Go follow her now on IG.



For the lips I chose these products:

1. Exceptional Lipstick, from Elizabeth Arden, in #71 Georgia Peach. It came in one of My Petite Boxes and I like the creamy formula, it is very opaque and gives a really nice color, besides, it does not settle into the fine lines of my lips.

2. L'oreal Colour Riche lipstick in #176, Dreamy Pink. I also bought it from MAKEUPLOVERSBYMA and it is a very light pink. The only thing that I am not too fond about it is the smell. L'oreal lipsticks have this funny smell, like old lady perfume. Thankfully it fades pretty fast.

3. Milani Color Statement Lipstick in #27, Dulce Caramelo. Love the watermelon scent. It is kind of a nudy brown lipstick with shimmer. No, it is not frosty. Some of the lipsticks of this line, Color Statement, can be found in Steven's and Titán for about $7.00.

4. NYX Butter Gloss in Eclair that I bought from my friend Nitzia. She owns Glitter Drops Store, and online store, and she sells both high end and drugstore makeup, at very nice prices. She is awesome and her products are the real deal, not copies with a brand name sticker on it as I have seen from other people. Go look for her on IG and follow her (it's an order!).

5. Essence XXL Longlasting Lipgloss and I don't have the name. Silly me, I removed the bar code sticker and the name was there. I really like this gloss formula, it is no heavy or uncomfortable on the lips and does not have any weird/funky scents and also it makes the lips look plumped and juicy.






And finally, to finish any look I use the Clarins Crayon Khol in Intense Black (this is a deluxe sample size from one of My Petite Boxes), the Physicians Formula Eye Booster eyeliner en either Deep Brown or Ultra Black (depending on the look that I end up doing for the day I will choose my liner), and finally my Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes! 4-in-1 mascara (not pictured).

The rest of my makeup, the face portion and my brows, I do them at home and soon I will share with you guys the products that I use for that.

That will be all for now. Thank you for stopping by and I'll see you in my next post!

Quick Review: Tatcha Pure One-Step Camellia Cleansing Oil

Hi everyone! I have a quick post on a product that I recently purchased, tried and enjoyed a lot.  It is the Tatcha Pure One-Step Camellia Cleansing Oil.  I bought the 0.8 oz. bottle back in September ($12.00 the travel size and $48.00 for 5.1 oz)  and about a week after I received it I used and I did not like it, at all but this thing has instructions and a little learning curve.  But let me tell you about it: Tatcha is a relatively new to Sephora, it is a luxury brand, kind of pricey, and its founder, while traveling in Japan, met with a Geisha who share their ancient beauty secrets, which were improved with a little help of science and they have very good reviews, on almost every single one of their products. As for the cleansing oil, this is what Sephora's webpage says: "This beautiful blend of botanical oils thoroughly cleanses the skin without stripping it of its natural moisture—an essential first step for any skincare ritual. Formulated without...

Christmas Beauty Haul

Hi everyone and welcome back to my blog. This time I'd like to share my Christmas beauty haul. I know it is a little late but hey, better late than never. So let's get started: First stop was a new brand for me that is all over Youtube:  Colour Pop Cosmetics . This brand is quite new and they have so far, eye shadows and lipsticks (or lippie stix) and lip liners. Every individual item, whether it is an eye shadow or a lippie stix is only $5.00 and once you hit the $30.00 mark, you get free shipping withing the USA. Believe me, reaching the $30.00 is quite easy. This is what my package looked like before I decided to bust it open. It came with one of the Christmas sets that I ordered and an additional lippie stix. Another thing to keep in mind when making your first order is that, when you subscribe you can get $5.00 off that very first purchase so more reason to buy. Let me show you what I got: This was one of the Holiday Collection...

First Impression - YSL Mascara Volume Effet Faux Cils

Hi everyone! Welcome back to my blog.  For this post I have a very special piece of info to share with you guys.  This will be a first impressions on a high end mascara that I am still surprised to have received. I was "invited" to enroll into  Influenster 's community in order to receive and review products and this time   I received this product complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.  This is one of the very few high end, full size mascaras that I have owned and lets get started. YSL decided to reformulate one of their most iconic products and changed the formula in order to have a new Lash Care formula. It claims that it will give you intense volume, intense color and, now, intense care. It contains B5 Pro-Vitamin that will strengthen and proctect the lashes. This mascara can be purchased where ever YSL is sold and for reference, price is around $32.00. It comes in 6 colors, at least that is what I was able to see on Sephora's w...
