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

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!

LOTD 07-17-13 Happy Humpday ALSO my Husband's Birthday!!

Hello Beauties!  Welcome back for another post with details from today's look!  Today is my husband's birthday and one of his favorite colors is RED, so I broke out some fabulous red finds I have acquired and just love how everything turned out! 

The makeup today I am TOTALLY in love with!!  Another Target find from last night, I used my new Sonia Kashuk Eye on Glamour palette, which is FILLED with glittery goodness!!  All the shadows but 2 are glitter shadows.  Some pigmentation could be better, but the rest is great!  The $19.99 price tag might be a bit much, esp since some of the shadow quality isn't the greatest - so in case you're interested, you can check out this palette at your local Target stores.  The pro's outweigh the con's and I would suggest grabbing the palette if you love glitter as much as I do!

Another highlight of my look today is my red lippie, courtesy of the new Milani Cosmetics colorstatement lipstick (the one in the gold packaging) in 07 Best Red.  These lipsticks are ALL over the beauty community and constantly raved about.  I've lost count of how many I've collected, and they are TOTALLY worth picking up if you haven't done so yet!  This lippie is a matte red, which I didn't know it was matte when I put it on, however I'm fine with it.  I debated topping it off with a gloss but decided against it, and loved how classic the look turned out.  These lipsticks can be found all over the place: Walgreens, CVS, Wal-Mart, Target...

The red sequin top, which is a tank, actually I purchased from Express last year, and it's one of those pieces I kind of forget about but then when I'm wearing it I'm like "WHY did I ever forget you??" it's fabulous b/c of the sequins and I just love the deep red color.

Now let me speak of this fantastic skater skirt I found at Target - anything leopard, I'm automatically drawn to it.  So all I saw was leopard print and I just, out of instinct, GRABBED IT!  My daughter was in the cart eating her popcorn and I said "what print is this??" and she answered "our favorite print; LEOPARD!"  Ha-ha, she's a fashionista in training, y'all!  This skirt was $19.99, and totally worth it!  It's the most comfortable skirt ever!  And I finished the look off with these black sandals that I've put on repeat for the past 2 months!  Wound up getting them in white too!  Another Target find ;))

Thank you guys for taking the time out with me today and I hope you guys are having a FABB day!
