Makeup Mondays!!

 

Welcome back Beauties!!  I L-O-V-E Makeup Mondays!!  And today I'm sharing with you some of my favorite eyeshadows...if you, like me, like glitter, then these babies are a MUST HAVE!

 

These eyeshadows are classified as "Glitter Eye Top Coat" and that just makes them sound even more beautiful, right?!?  These are the Ulta Glitter Eye Top Coat Glitter Eye Shadows...WHEWWW!!!  A mouthful, I know, but they are totes worth it!!

Price point is $8.00 a piece OR 2 for $8.00 - there are 8 different shades to choose from and I believe I have all but one...maybe?  Haha ;)) The shadow shades shown above are:  Deep End (teal shade), Bronze Bombshell (bronze shade), Fairy Princess (light beige shade).

 

My opinions on this product:  These are extremely pigmented shadows, that are best applied using your finger.  I will pat these shadows on my lid to give it glittery gorgeousness!!  There IS fallout, however I do not mind with glitter :))

 

I absolutely LOVE these shadows and I feel they are a MUST in your makeup collection - especially if you are a glitter lover, like myself!  They are affordable and extremely gorgeous.  I cannot say enough good things about them!!

 

I hope you enjoyed this post and stay tuned for more beauties I can't wait to share!

 

Remember to always leave a trail of glitter ;))

 

Until next time, take care!

Beauty Tip Thursday!

Welcome back Beauties!!

 

Today's post is all about sharing Beauty tips.  One in particular is talking about cream products - whether it is a cream eyeshadow, cream foundation, cream bronzer, etc...

 

Using a cream product as a BASE will help set any powder you may place on top OR they are great to use if you have dry skin, as I do.

 

I use them as a base and will place a powder on top, which also helps create an intense color payoff. 

 

ANOTHER great idea for a contour is to use a deep, dark foundation and blend, blend, BLEND!!  A great product to try for this little trick is pictured below (Maybelline Fit Me stick foundation), AND it can be found in your local drug store ;))

I hope you found this little tip helpful, and let me know what you think!  Have you tried this trick?  What products do YOU use??

Until next time, take care!

**NEW** Maybelline Baby Lips LIMITED EDITION Pinked!!! (PHOTO HEAVY)

Welcome back, Beauties!!  You'll have to excuse my excitement for this post in advance ;)) with that said, herrre we go!!!  And, THANK YOU to Maybelline for these adorable babies!?!

 

OhMyGosh!?! RUN, SPRINT, do whatever you have to to get yourself to your nearest Bed Bath and Beyond to grab these for yourself!!  That is where I found mine, and just so you know there are 5 in this collection and yes, they ARE limited edition and I'm beyond sure that they'll sell out fast!!

Below I will feature pics showing the product in their original packaging...

The price point on these were $3.40 each and if you can find them BOGO, which they were not at BB&B, then that's a SCORE for you!! ;))

 

Now I will include pics featuring the product with swatches of each color...

Shade: 110 - Pop of Pink (a bubblegum-pink)

Shade: 120 - Rose Rush (an orange-pink)

Shade:  115 - Mad for Magenta (a LIGHT bright pink)

 

Shade: 105 - Blush Burst (a light baby-pink)

Shade: 125 - Very Berry (a purple-pink)

The smell of these are amazing - they have a fun, fruity scent to them, which are similar to the original Baby Lips, however this set all have a pink-tone to them.  Of course, being that PINK is my favorite color, I was all over these. 

 

They are also very moisturizing, which is definitely a plus for me, since I have to have a balm on my lips at all times, this is a 2-fer - a 2 for 1 kind of deal - I get the moisturizer of a balm and the color of a lipstick/gloss!  WIN/WIN!!

 

I hope if your searching for these, you are able to find them and that you love them as much as I do!!

Happy Shopping!!

Champagne for Breakfast!

 

 

 

 

Welcome back Beauties!  I saw this fantastic sweatshirt from Charlotte Russe on Instagram and thought it would be great to create an OOTD showcasing my own taste and style!  Being a Mom, I like fabulous pieces but throwing a casual feel with it.  I'm also a Southern Gal who loves her Keds, and these matched PERFECTLY with this sweatshirt!  In some light the sweatshirt looks more aqua blue, in other light it comes off more like a Tiffany blue, which is a blue I need in my life! 

 

The dark wash denim I paired with this top I found at Wal-mart, and they were under $15!  They're super comfortable and stretchy which, again, for a Mom on the go, is a PLUS!  They're more like jeggings, and I have them in 3 washes - Light wash, Dark wash, and Black.  All of which, are necessities! (in my book)

 

My bag is from JustFab, however it is no longer available.  If you are not a member of JustFab, try it!!  It's FREE to join, and when you sign up, you fill out a style profile which is how your options are chosen each month!  You can skip a month, if you wish, however you can also purchase at any time!  Majority of the items are $39.95, however they have more "luxury" items, which can differ in price.  You have until the 5th of each month to skip and opt out of making a purchase.  If you don't, you are charged $39.95, and you receive a credit, which you can use to choose an item at a later date!  Easy peasy!

 

AAAND if things couldn't get better ;)) my shoes have glittery shoe-strings!! EEE!!  Ha-ha

 

I hope you enjoyed this OOTD!!  Stay tuned for more outfit features!

 

Take care, and until next time, remember to leave a trail of glitter!

DUPE ALERT!!

 

Hello Beauties! Welcome back!  I am here today with a dupe for you to entertain...it's a very unique color choice, but I love it!  I am mentioning NYX Matte lipstick in the shade Butter, which I feel is a dupe for MAC Divine Nite lipstick collection in the shade Exclusive Event.  Btw, some people think Butter is a dupe for MAC HoneyLove - YOU be the judge!!

Again, these are very unique shades and out of the ordinary, I feel, but I do love them both!  I didn't get my hands on the MAC lipstick, however keep checking in to see if it's in stock or not (NOT) and when I saw a video from MakeupByLeinaBaaaby featuring NYX, I HAD to locate this color!!  She showed swatches from the NYX Matte lipstick line and Butter was one of the shades...and I loved it!!  Btw, she's gorgeous so you should check her out!!

To describe the shade - it's a taupe brown, which looks darker in person than when you search it online.  In person it looks more like MAC Exclusive Event does looking at in online.  NYX Matte lipstick in Butter is, of course, a Matte finish - but I feel they're not drying like a usual MATTE.  I feel there is a bit of a sheen to them, which helps with dryness.  I, personally, do not mind a true matte lipstick, however if you don't truly care for them b/c of the dryness, the NYX Matte lipstick line would be a good option to try!  Color payoff is great and the price is great, as well!

 

Happy shopping!

 

Until next time, take care!

TGIF FOTD!! Featuring TooFaced Cosmetics and L'Oreal

Welcome back Beauties!!  I'm excited to share today's details b/c I have been waiting to play with this TooFaced palette what seems like FOREVER now!!  The look I created today is something I like to call...a "Mossy" look.  How's that sound??

This palette offers deep earthy tones, most with shimmer or glitter and a few mattes, which I used the cream matte shade as a blending shade.  The colors I used to create today's look were Nightcap (a toasted khaki color with shimmer), After Hours (a glittery taupe color), Eclipse (an irridescent brown) and Night Fever (a forest green with gold specs).

This palette is definitely in the neutral family however, these are DEEP tones, and some I'd favor to jewel tones?  If there is ever such a thing??  Neutral jewel tones??  Any who, I LOVE the shimmer and glitter payoff, however some I know do not like that so much, so if that's YOU, you may want to take a look at the matte palette that TooFaced offers.  This palette I used today only offers 2 matte shades, the rest have an irridescent, shimmer or glitter finish to them.

Another little gem I used today was the L'Oreal Golden Emerald infallible eye shadow and this is G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S!!  I found this at Ulta and I am SO glad I purchased this beauty!!  It also has gold glitter specs in it, which makes this another fall staple you MUST invest in!!

I usually like to pair my makeup with what I'm wearing - yes, I'm THAT dork!!  But today I didn't care b/c I have been wanting to use this TooFaced palette so I just came up with a lil sumthin-sumthin ;))

Another NEW Fall staple I now have and can't wait to come up with some more gorgeous eye looks!! 

I hope you enjoyed today's FOTD and remember to shop my custom glitter tumblers at www.etsy.com/shop/TheeGlitterBee

FOTD featuring L'Oreal and Milani blush

Happy Thursday Beauties!  Today's look is including my NEW drugstore beauty products L'Oreal CupaJoe palette and Milani Fantastico Mauve blush.

I've seen BOTH these products featured in several YouTube videos and on Instagram, and if you can, I suggest grabbing both of these as they will easily become staples in your beauty routine, ESP for the fall!! 

I absolutely LOVE this blush - I'm a sucker for anything shimmery and glittery and this blush DEF has it's share of shimmer.  So, if you do NOT like a shimmery blush, then I would steer clear of this one.  It's gorgeous though, and I don't feel the shimmer is overkill on my face.  But I'm indoors, so it's not like I can really tell??

This eyeshadow palette is nothing but matte, neutral shadows, so if this is more your "cup-o-tea" (or CUPA-JOE haha) then I recommend this little beauty!!  You can usually find L'Oreal products on sale at your local CVS, or Walgreens and that would be the best time to get it!

I did add a little extra "pizz-azz" and put glitter liner along my bottom lash line.  I used NYX glitter liner in CRYSTAL SILK.  It's a champagne colored glitter and is gawwjusss ;)) but I'm a glitter addict so I'm partial ;))

I hope you enjoyed this look and don't forget to check out my online store of GLITTER TUMBLERS!!  www.etsy.com/shop/TheeGlitterBee

Wet N Wild FOTD 07-31-13

Hello Beauties!!  Welcome back for, yet again, another FOTD.  Today is featuring one of my ALL. TIME. FAVORITE brands EVERRRR Wet N Wild!!  Where shall I start with their products??  I mean, quality, pigmentation, opaqueness, price...the list of benefits goes on AND ON!!  They have one of THEE best drugstore brand beauty lines available! 
  

Today I wanted to wear a lighter face, however wanted something on the face!  I didn't want to go too crazy with colors, etc., so I kept it simple and chose my Wet N Wild 6 pan palette in Greed - I just used the 2 peachy colors in my crease.  That's it!  I used the matte peach shade and blended that in my crease, and topped that off with the shimmery peach just to add a little pizzazz...I mean, my handle IS TheeGlitterBee, for goodness sakes!!  Gotta have some sort of shimmer in there somewhere :))

For the cheeks I used my Wet N Wild ColorIcon blush in Pearlescent Pink - and I just love this shade.  It could very well be a dupe for Nars Deep Throat blush - but that's all MY opinion.  I think (in price order) it goes: Nars Deep Throat/NYX Cosmetics Pinched/Wet N Wild Pearlescent Pink - those 3 are all very similar in color, however vary, greatly, in price!!  So, in case you're interested, there you go!

On my lips I am wearing Wet N Wild Fergie Daily lipstick with Revlon Snow Pink gloss (possible DUPE for MAC Florabundance??) overtop.  I'm in love with this combo!! 

All of these items can be found at your local Walgreens, KMart, Wal-Mart, CVS and even some Target locations!  The ColorIcon blush retails for $2.99; The ColorIcon 6 pan palette retails for $6.99.  Both TOTALLY worth buying, and if you haven't looked into WNW products, you definitely should; you can't beat the price and the quality of all the products!  You'll thank me later ;))

Thanks for stopping by and remember to leave a trail of glitter ;))

Today's FOTD details 07-30-13

Hello Beauties!  Welcome back, I hope y'all are having a wonderful Tuesday!!  I just wanted to share, quickly, with you my FOTD and the products used.  I decided since it is July...IN Florida...and it's just TOO STINKIN HOT outside, that I'd break out my Garnier BB Combination/Oily cream in Light/Medium, just to give my skin a break from the heavy foundations, and see how I like it!?

So far, so good!  It definitely doesn't feel heavy on the face, and it certainly has the LOOK of a foundation - where it evens out the skin, gives you coverage (altho "light" coverage) - but, I don't feel as if I'm melting away when I step outside with this on my face.  I did follow through with my usual concealer routine, just b/c I'm not in my 20's NO-MO and I need that extra lil bit of coverage ;))

I also used my brand new bronzer, it's by Tarte Cosmetics, and it's the Hotel Heiress bronzer - there is a shimmer to it, but I LOVE that, whereas some people prefer a matte bronzer.  I doubled the duty of this beauty - I also used it on my eyes as my eyeshadow!

FYI - I borrowed this look from Stephanie aka SMLx0 and will include her link so you can see her for yourself!!  Btw - she's GORGEOUS!!  She's a mix of Megan Fox and Adriana Lima...

T-G-I-F FOTD featuring NYX Cosmetics and Rimmel

Hello again, my Beautiful Friends :))  I wanted to share today's FOTD, MOTD, LOTD details with you, and allowing a closer look into the specifics!

Today I used my NYX Butt Naked Palette, which I absolutely love!  The eyeshadows are very creamy, and pigmented and fantastic if you 're wanting to do a neutral eye.  Plus the price on this isn't too shaby either.  It does come with some lip glosses, and bronzer and blush; that was in a little "drawer" this palette has, but since I didn't use that portion, I didn't show you those items.  (sorry)

I will include the link for the palette for you who are interested however have not snagged this baby up yet!  It retails for $24.99, but you get good sized eyeshadows, plus bronzer, plus blush, hightlight, and on and on!!  Seriously, this baby is TOTALLY worth buying!!  I find myself gravitating to this when I want to wear an easy, neutral eye.

ULTA link for NYX Butt Naked palette:  http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?skuId=2239593&productId=xlsImpprod4010191&navAction=push&navCount=1&categoryId=cat80045

My lippie for the day is a new goodie I found at Walgreens in a new display Rimmel had out for their Moisture Renew line; this is one of 2 I picked up, and this sucker is the BOMB.COM!! This color is a pinky-red, which I love; and pigmented??  Well, HELLOO...and when I blotted to drink and eat it became a stain on my lips, and was matte.  It's a very unique formula; to me it's a very creamy matte.  And from my other Rimmel lippies, this tends to be the trend for them, no??  I'm not sure if this color is LE or if it will eventually make it's way to their permanent line, but if you're like me and you LOVE a good red lippie, then grab this baby UP!! 

I hope you enjoyed all the glorious details from today's FOTD as I am excited to share with my fellow Beauty Lovaahs!! ;))

FOTD 7/24/13 Using E.L.F. Beach Beauty palette

Hello Beauties!  Welcome back, and thank you for stopping by my blog to keep up with me as I share with you today's look featuring the mini E.L.F. Beach Beauty palette!  I found this little beauty a couple months ago, actually, at Target and the price tag was a whole $6.00 - best $6 spent!

The price tag is one of the phenomenal points to be made about this palette, not to mention the beautiful watercolors available!!  I mean, do you SEE the colors??  I have been dying to use a blue - cobalt blue - just a BOLD blue on my lids, and the dark blue was what drew me to this palette.  Of course the other colors are gorgeous, but that blue...*sigh*...

Any who, I used this palette for my eyes, my bronzer, AND my blush!!  The coral blush is what I used on my cheeks, and the matte bronzer (next to the coral blush) is what I used to contour.  I didn't use a highlight b/c the blush had PLENTY of shimmer in it, so it saved me a step! ;)) 

I wanted to do a whole look using this palette - minus the lipglosses - I don't usually use glosses in palettes like this.  I dunno, I'm weird like that.  I have to get out my own lipbrush, which I don't use very often, so I forget where it is, blah, blah, blah...haha so minus the lips, the look is all based out of this pretty little palette!

If you can still find this beauty, I suggest you run and grab it!  It is TOTALLY worth the buy, and p-e-r-f-e-c-t for girls of all ages, so for you Momma's out there, you can get this for your daughters :))  I will also attach the link below to purchase of the E.L.F. website - there are 2 shade variations you can get so for you Ladies who would like a more subdued look, there is one for you too!!

Happy Tuesday FOTD

 

 

Hello Beauties!  Happy Tuesday to you - I thought I'd post a little beauty talk today, sharing with you some of my FAVORITES :))

 

I broke out this quad from Maybelline (Purple Icon) that I purchased after watching Liz (iheartmakeup92); she mentioned this eyeshadow in one of her drugstore videos and I absolutely LOVE it!  I also used my L'Oreal Infallible eyeshadow in Liquid Diamond, which I used on my lid.  I don't know about y'all but these L'Oreal shadows are BOMB.COM!!  They shimmer and shine like nothing else, and if you don't have any - you NEED to go get you some!! 

 

I topped off my eyes by using my latest mascara picks for my mascara routine - one of my very close girlfriends introduced me to this Rimmel mascara after we were out celebrating her fiance's birthday and her eyelashes were like HELLOOOO!!  Since that night, I have been scouring this town looking for this mascara, with no luck.  I wound up stopping by CVS b/c I left the house one morning, in a hustle (as all my mornings tend to be), and realized I forgot to apply my mascara!  The mascara Gods were looking upon me that morning and saw my desperation, low and behold, I found this mascara, and dare I tell you - this has become my Holy Grail mascara!!  It is THE best thing I have come across - the only complaint I have, and it's barely worth mentioning, is that the formula is very "wet" so you have to be a little more careful applying, otherwise, it makes your lashes look phenomenal :)) You will thank me later ;)) LOL

 

One the lips I applied my Milani Nude Crème lipstick and NYX Cosmetics Tiramisu buttergloss overtop.  Both smell fantastic, and both have extreme color payoff so they could be worn alone and look great!

 

I hope you enjoyed today's FOTD, and thanks for stopping by!

DUPE ALERT!! L'Oreal I Pink You're Cute and MAC Viva Glam Nicki



Bottom right pic - swatches - Top/Left, L'Oreal I Pink You're Cute - Bottom/Right, MAC Viva Glam Nicki

 Hello Beauties!!  I am UBER excited to share this dupe with you, and in case you didn't know, this is an EXACT dupe for MAC Viva Glam Nicki lippie :))

The color is basically the exact same - so much so, I consider them twinnies!!  There is a difference, however in the texture and wear of these lipsticks.  L'Oreal I Pink Your Cute has a glossy finish to it, whereas MAC Nicki is a matte finish.  Nicki is also a smidge more opaque than I Pink You're Cute.

When I wear Nicki, I will apply a little lip balm before applying the lipstick just so there is some sort of softness to my lips.  I don't feel MAC matte lipsticks are extremely drying, but a matte's a matte - it's dry!  I'm a lipstick and lipgloss duo kind of girl, so 9 times out of 10 I apply a coordinating gloss overtop of my lipsticks. 

This L'Oreal lipstick has been included in a new release campaign that is ALL ABOUT Pink!!  I have seen the displays in Walgreens, and I actually picked mine up at a Wal-Mart grocery center of all places??  It was included in the permanant display, so my guess is you'll be able to pick this baby up anywhere they sell L'Oreal beauty??  Don't quote me on that, but that's my guess.  All that being said, that's definitely a good thing b/c I just love this color and this lipstick!  FYI - L'Oreal Colour Riche lipsticks sell for $8.95.

You can still pick up Viva Glam Nicki from MAC, however I do not know how long it will be available for?  As all their celebrity collabs, they tend to be limited editions, but the time-frame available I am unsure?  FYI - MAC Viva Glam Nicki sells for $15.00 BUT 1 cent from each sale of this lipstick goes towards helping those with HIV and AIDS.  So there's is definitely a plus by purchasing this lipstick - not only are you treating yourself, but you're helping those in need :)) a WIN WIN!!

I JUST LOVE THESE, don't you??

Thanks for stopping by and remember to leave a trail of glitter ;))

FOTD July 16, 2013

Happy Tuesday to all my fellow Beauties!  Welcome back to my blog, and this post specifically to discuss this little bitty palette I received with my Sedona Lace Midnight Lace brush set.  WHEW!!  Say all that 5 times fast!!  I absolutely loved this Lil Bit when I opened it and saw all the gorgeous colors! 

The palette was a special Sedona Lace was offering at the time I purchased the brushes - it was a free gift with a purchase, so there is no specific name to this palette.  HOWEVER, the shadows DO have names, which is unlike their usual form.  Their massive palettes do not have individual names for each shadow, in each palette.  The names in the palette is as follows:

Golden bronze shadow - Samurai
Pink shimmer shadow - Brazen
Blue shimmer shadow - Far-Out
Matte off-white shadow - Headliner

The first 3 shades are shimmer, and the last one is a matte shade, which I used to highlight my browbone. The hightlight I used in my tear duct was a white shade from the Milani Paint palette.  I applied my ELF primer, then NYX jumbo pencil in Milk on my lid, to start.  First applying Brazen, the pink shade, to 1/3 of my lid,then moving to Far-Out, the blue - before doing so, I applied this gorgeous NYX jumbo pencil in 622 Electric Blue to use as a base for Far-Out.  I applied Far-Out overtop the blue base, blending it in with Brazen, which created a gorgeous purple!  I then took Samurai and blended Brazen and Far-out and to add color into my crease.  Once that was blended to my liking, I applied Headliner on my browbone.

This palette also includes a mini synthetic tapered blending brush, which is a total SCORE!!

I will link the Sedona Lace website as well as the Midnight Lace brush set that I purchased below.  They are great brushes, and are raved about all over the beauty community for their quality and price!  Plus, not to mention how pretty the brushes are!  Double and TRIPLE score!!

Sedona Lace website:  http://www.sedonalace.com/Default.aspx
Midnight Lace Synthetic Brush Set:  http://www.sedonalace.com/Cosmetic-Brushes/165/Midnight-Lace-Synthetic-Brush-Set.aspx

How many of you received this palette also?  What are your thoughts?  I'd love to see the looks that YOU came up with using this Lil Bit, as well!

Stay tuned for more posts using this palette!

Have a wonderful day Beauties :))

FOTD for July 15, 2013

Hello my Beauties! WOW...has it been FOREVER and a day that I've posted, or WHAT??  Well, I am here, finally; happy to be back, and I want to offer my sincerest apologies for the lack of posts.  Life as a Mother, Wife, working full-time, and keeping up with all my usual daily chores is hard. to. do. to say the least - and for those of you out there who do it and can actually maintain it all, good for you!

I try to do it all and it's difficult, b/c I do need to find time for some beauty rest :))  Anywho, lets get into the look today, shall we??

I broke out my faaabulous BH Cosmetics Malibu palette for today's look, and I really like how well it turned out!  I've had this palette for a little while now, and actually purchased it after I saw a picture of a fellow beauty gal on Instagram.  I love the vibrant blues this palette offers, and as in usual BH Cosmetics fashion, the color payoff is phenominal!  You also get blush and bronzer in this palette, however since I did not use those, I didn't get a picture of those.  If you wish to see a pic, please let me know and I'll be happy to post a more "in depth" description and review of this palette.

ALL of the products and items listed on the BH Cosmetics website have resonable price tags - and you get bomb makeup!  So check them out!  I will list the website, and the item link for the Malibu palette so you can maybe purchase your own?? ;))

MINTY Fresh OOTD

Happy Tuesday Lovelies!  I wanted to share today's OOTD, FOTD, and ACOTD - even though it is October now, I am feeling this MINT trend and was wanting to share my version I went with for today :))

The sweater is from Forever21 and is rather light-weight.  Living in FL we really don't have the need for heavy sweaters but I do work in an office and it gets chilly - or rather I STAY chilly!  Ha-ha so I could pull this off in the office.

I hope you all enjoy!

Until next time, TAKE CARE!!

HIGHLY ANTICIPATED MAC Newest Release MARILYN MONROE COLLECTION

Overnight the highly awaited collection was added to MAC's website and as to no surprise to anyone, it sold out rather quickly.  It IS a gorgeous collection, however I am not sure what, if anything, is popping out at me and yelling "BUY ME, BUY MEE!" 

I am under the assumption that this is information that all of you, my readers, have been made well aware of some time ago.  My question is, what is screaming at you to go and buy?  Maybe once I see some feedback from those who have purchased items, I might have more of a want for something?  As of right now, for me, the jury is still out on this one.

My only reason for purchasing something at this point, from the Marilyn collection, is purely for the novilty of the items.  It's like "I want it, but only because it's MARILYN MONROE!"  Ha-ha I will say this, as I'm typing this, the more I think about it, I am partial to the blushes in this collection.  I think they're very pretty, and would be quite flattering?!

This is the email I received showing items in this collection:

What are you looking to get from this collection?  I'd love to know!!

Until next time, take care!!
