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!! ;))

NEW Item posted on my store! Pink, Glittery FUN!!



Hello Beauties!  I wanted to show you all the latest item to be posted on my online Etsy shop!  This was made as a gift, HOWEVER, can be made specifically for YOU! :)) 

I think it's just the most fabulous thing I've ever seen!  But...I'm partial to anything pink!  The picture doesn't even do this beauty justice because the "show" it gives when you have it in the light is just, uhh...breathtaking!  Ok, too much??  I am a little biased of my own creations, however, so can you blame me??  LOL

But PUH-LEASE stop by my store to take a look-see and who knows what glittery goodness you might fall in love with??

I love you all and appreciate your support SO SO much!!  And every order that comes through, I get a tinge of excitement that just takes over me, because I am sharing my creativity with you all through another means, besides makeup and fashion!  When you order from me, you own your own piece of TheeGlitterBee!! :))  And THAT makes, my heart happy!!

My Etsy store is OPEN!!

Hello Beauties!!  I am SUPER excited to announce to y'all that my Etsy store is open for business!!  I have 5 items listed so far, and I have more I plan to add later.  I cannot explain how exciting this is for me as I have been working on ALL this for about a month now.  I did not realize the time it took to get everything up and running, and certainly wasn't expecting my little business to take off like it has!  Thank you Jesus!!

I am so happy beyond words to be sharing this fantastic news with you so you may purchase online at any time, rather than going through me directly.  I know some people prefer to just jump online, and press "buy now" than to have to go through any person, especially if they may not know them very well or be familiar with them. 

I will also take requests directly, if you wish to go that route - that is not a problem whatsoever!  I can take custom requests, along with a request to purchase an item listed on my store OR from a picture I have posted on one of my social media networks.

The link for my Etsy store is:  http://www.etsy.com/shop/TheeGlitterBee

I hope that you'll take a minute to go take a look, and possibly order a tumbler you've had your eye on?!

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