185 Lilac Ever After  Swatch and Review Lilac Ever After is described as a purple lip stain with a glossy shine.  Purple? Meh, I'd say it's a muted mauve-y shade. It definitely does not swatch or show up as a purple on the lips. When first applying this lip stain I noticed it feels very wet, not sticky like most lip glosses. The initial wet feeling goes away within

Crazy For Chic Intense color, Luxurious shine, 10-day wear. Intense color, yes. Luxurious shine, sure. 10-day wear? No, but I can't keep a polish from chipping more than a day or two. Crazy for Chic is part of L'Oreal's trendsetter collection and is a pinkish red. The brush was wide enough for me to cover my whole nail with one swipe.  This could possibly be a

I know everyone and their mother has probably tried out Maybelline's Baby Lips, but I had these photos on my computer and thought I'd go ahead and post them anyway.  Maybelline Baby Lips in Peach Kiss I am a sucker for packaging and these are so darn pretty. They remind me of Easter eggs in their springy, pastel colors. Peach Kiss leaves behind a nice hint of color.

Today I'll be talking about Garnier's Miracle dry oil for hair, skin, and nails.  Like my statement above says, I got to try this out for free. I've had it for a little while now and can fully review it.

Essie-Absolutely Shore This polish came out in the Summer 2011 collection, I believe. I'm only posting and swatching because I found this at TJ Maxx for $3.99 and wanted to let y'all know and show you a swatch incase you wanted to know what it looked like. This is two coats and my camera is not doing the color justice. It's a very pretty minty, muted,

With Valentine's Day right around the corner, I decided I should go for a nice tomato red manicure. I dug around my polish collection and found Essie's Silken Cord and painted away. I kept thinking it looked familiar and then it hit me! This looks exactly like Julep's January.  So, I immediately had to compare.  This is what I found... Julep, Essie, Julep Ring finger

Hello, Hello. My Target finally got in a new display of the Color Whispers that were unmolested. FINALLY! I have Pink Possibilities reviewed and swatched here. As soon as Target restocked I knew I had to get my hands on Lust for Blush. I love the translucent color coordinated packaging. I love the font they chose and how slim it is.  The last thing I need is

Anybody who has read my blog for a while knows I am a sucker for these mystery boxes from Julep. I wasn't going to post about it, but Julep emailed me about the box again so I thought I better share before they sell out. Valentine's Day happens to be my favorite holiday and I happen to love nail polish so this is perfect gift in my opinion. What girl doesn't love nail polish? ;) On top

I got this Model Co lip gloss in Strip Tease a couple of Birchboxes ago. I haven't heard much about the brand so it got me interested. Model Co is beauty brand based out of Sydney, Australia. They're known for smart beauty solutions that are quick-fix, multi-purpose and unique.  Basically, great for women on the go. ;) Strip Tease-full size is $16 What I love

So, I'm really late on the Baby Lips bandwagon...  I said I was not going to buy more lip balm products until I used up the tons of balms I already had. Well...my three year old is obsessed with all things make-up and raided my balm stash so I had an excuse to try out Maybelline's baby lips! I picked up Cherry Me for about $3 at my local Target. The first thing I

I've been eyeing this Dior palette for quite some time now and have been hesitant to pick it up.  With it being around the Holiday's, I said what the heck, I'll treat myself.  And if you know me, you know I piled on some free gift cards I picked up through Viggle.* *Haven't heard of Viggle?

I know this is not beauty related but we had a chance to attend the 2013 Tournament of Roses Parade this year so I thought I'd bring y'all along.  The "Rose Parade" has been around since 1890, including flower covered floats, marching bands, and equestrians. About 1 million people from all over the country were in attendance this year. This year's theme was, "Oh, the

Hey, Everyone. Maybelline has launched a new line of lipsticks called Color Whisper for Spring 2013. They are quite similar to Revlon's Lip Butters. They are described as pure color pigments suspended in a gel with no heavy waxes for see-through color with a touch of shine. I happened to run into the display at my Target with most of the 20 shades bought up already.  The

Hey, Everyone! I am back.  We're pretty much settled down now.  We moved from the East coast to the West coast. Literally. North Carolina to LA. Whew.  And yes, we DROVE! Ugh. lol.  Anyways, I packed my nail polish instead of having the movers move them, but I didn't have my nail polish remover. Luckily, I had these handy little LA Fresh nail polish remover pads

A few posts back I mentioned that Urban Decay had their eyeshadows in the old packing for sale at various locations. Well, I couldn't resist so I bought a few. I picked up Half Baked, Midnight Cowboy Rides Again, and Haight. Half Baked is in both the Naked palettes. It's a gorgeous bronze color that glides on like butter. Midnight Cowboy Rides Again is a glittery champagne color
