NEW L'Oreal and Maybelline Product Displays

I went out on my lunch break today and did a little investigating.  I let the journalist/photographer/reporter in me come out and have a little fun.  Below I have for you some new products that I found in my local Walgreens - there is A LOT to go over here!!  These items are from L'Oreal and Maybelline and it seems to be a lot of interesting items - at least interesting to the makeup "whore" in me!!  Sorry, but SO true! 

Feast your eyes on the new makeup items I place before you - FYI I have NOT seen these items anywhere else as of today.  However I have read elsewhere that these are new items for summer and should hopefully be popping up in more of your retail chains.

First things first:  L'Oreal items...please notice they have 2 BB creams to choose between...







Now for the Maybelline items...

You'll notice they have lipsticks, which I thought was an odd choice of shades for summer?  Plums??  And the eyeshadow palettes were definitely gorgeous just nothing that really stood out to me and in my mind I'm thinking "I HAVE TO HAVE THAT!!"

With that said, all items still fabulous, please don't get me wrong.





I hope this sparkes your interest as much as it does mine!!  NOW...to decide WHICH BB cream to try...I'm a sucker for Maybelline's products, but this is getting to be TOO HARD!!

Thanks Lovlies and until next time, Take Care!!

EOTD Green winged liner using SHADOW

Hello my Lovlies!!  Welcome back...today I was feeling rather green, but in a good way!!  I have done this look another time using another color and I loved the way it turned out.  Rather than having SO much color on the lid, this is a taste of the color.  I used just a neutral base all over the lid all the way to my brow-bone.

I used a small, firm angled brush to place the color OVER the liquid liner I had already placed.  I always "wing" out my liner b/c I personally love the look.  For my lower lash-line I put brown pencil liner in my waterline and then placed the green eyeshadow right at my where my lashes start.  I feel the closer you place the shadow when doing this look, the cleaner it seems?  That's my opinion...

I will include pictures down below along with listings of the products I used!

In natural lighting...

In florescent lighting...

FOTD in natural lighting...LOVING THE BOW!!

*The eyeshadow I used all over the lid was WetNWild the light beige color from the VANITY palette. 
*The liquid liner is my ELF brown liner (which I LOVE). 
*The green eyeshadow I used to line my eyes is the green shadow in the WetNWild I LOVE MATTEs palette.
*The brown pencil liner I used in my waterline is my NYX slide-on, glide-on pencil in Brown
*Mascaras I used were Maybelline's Great Lash Lots of Lashes and the new PLUSH mascara

I absolutely LOVE all of these products and they are all inexpensive and can be picked up at your nearest drugstores or Ulta.

Hope you enjoyed!!  Until next time, take care and *shinee* on...
