Foundation Routine

New YouTube video is up and it's all about how I do my foundation. Now I did the tutorial with my NARS Sheer Glow but if I use any foundation even a tinted moisturizer I apply it the same way.

OPI Shatter vs. China Glaze Crackle

So I've purchased the OPI Black Shatter as well as the China Glaze Crackle. So which one is better? In my own opinion OPI Shatter is so much better the China Glaze Crackle.


The formulas are slightly different, the China Glaze is very thick and more paste like where as the OPI is thinner and easier to apply. The OPI shatter "cracks" better the the China Glaze and is so much easier to apply.


When I used the China Glaze Crackle it wouldn't crack in some spots and left it looking spotty and strange and took a while to finish cracking; It was also very thick and hard to apply.


The OPI Shatter cracked very quickly and was extremely easy to apply and it was thin and did not clump.


Here are some pictures of the products as well as the polish in action. Also some pictures of the brushes and the paint.


First is OPI Shatter











China Glaze Crackle (Ok I didn't save all my pics of these sorry so not many =()














This above picture was borrowed from http://theplasticdiaries.com wanted you guys to see it inaction more.


I would pick the OPI Shatter over the China Glaze, and OPI is coming out with more colors if Black is not enough for you.


They have:


Silver Shatter
Turquoise Shatter
Blue Shatter
Red Shatter
Navy Shatter

Eyeshadow of the day 5/16/11- Sushi Flower

Blah I'm a terrible blogger I just haven't been putting makeup on lately classes ended and I just have been hanging around the house and going to the gym, but I promise more make looks are coming!
So today's eye shadow of the day is a really pretty MAC shadow, Sushi Flower. It's a bright pastel pink, it is a really great color to buy if you love pinks!
MAC describes the color as a Pinky-coral with pink shimmer and it is a Satin finish and for once to me a company has actually describe the color just as I would. It's a bright pink-coral color with a faint shimmer.


This color is not for someone who doesn't like pink or bright colors, because it is very pink!

New Blog

Hey guys, I'm starting a weight loss blog. I've simply put on too much weight and I'm done putting it off so my way of being held accountable is making this blog to make myself stick to it. If anyone us interested feel free to check it out, I'll be updating it on what I've eaten that day, my exercising, and overall dieting thoughts. Only telling you all about it incase any of you are trying to lose weight we can do it together, also reading some other weight loss blogs is what inspired me to finally stop putting off losing this weight so I'm letting you guys know in case any of you are trying as well.


Well wish me luck and maybe I'll see some posts from y'all on that blog also.

Eyeshadow of the day 5/9/11- Mythology

Today's eye shadow is one of my favorite colors of all time, Mythology by MAC. It is such an interesting mix of colors; gold, pink, orange, and copper. It 's amazing how many colors are all in one shade. It's just so pretty and is one of the only lustre colors that I like. MAC describes the color as a Copper and it is a lustre finish.

Sigma Brushes Overview

So I bought the Naughty in Black travel kit from Sigma. I got these brushes because I really wanted to try them out and see how they were because while I love my MAC brushes they are very expensive and I know personally I rather buy makeup then brushes with my money. While brushes are very important to makeup and how it looks buying actually makeup is more fun then brushes in my opinion. So I wanted to test out the Sigma brushes to see if the quality was really the same. I've seen multiple girls try them out but they are all people who have over like 10,000 subscribers on you tube and like 5000 blog followers so lets be honest I wasn't sure how true those reviews were and if there was any compensation involved.


*FYI This is a long post, it is my honest opinions, feel free to post your own thoughts in the comments if you agree or disagree with my opinions.

April Favorites

It's that time again for favorites. I have several this month, it felt like April took forever to get through this month, so I've built up a bunch of stuff.  First on a side note, I love these new desktops from OPI. The May one isn't up yet but you can keep an eye out and get them here.
