RiRi Hearts MAC Fall collection

2013-09-30T21:12:00.001-05:00

Sooooo the wait is over and the RiRi hearts MAC collection has been released both at MAC stores and online!!! I got mine items last week thanks to my BFF since we only have a counter and no actual store here in little ol Mobile, AL and she's in Birmingham, AL where they have the luxury of a store and 2 counters! :( Anywho, she purchased my items and shipped them to be last week, and needless to say IM GLAD SHE DID! Pretty much EVERYTHING sold out online and the store she purchased outr things from only got 3 of that Talk that Talk lipstick(2 of which we bought, lucky 3rd person) which was sure to be the most popular item of the collection. I've posted my swatches and pics on my IG: @u_love_mimi and on my FB and now I'm uploading them here! FYI: the collection will be released at counters and international on this Thursday, October 3rd so there's still hope! I'm gonna try to get those 2 blushes Diamond(cream base) and Good girl Gone Bad(powder base) that I didn't get...if not hey at least I did get the things that I really wanted the most!!! ;)

Love and kisses,

Mimi <3

Nicki Minaj's Clothing Line for Kmart

2013-05-08T15:07:00.000-05:00

Much like Mrs. Tina Knowles & The Kardashians did, Nicki Minaj has teamed up with Kmart to release an affordable line for her brabz. In her press release conference, Nicki said that the line wouldn't have anything "cheesy and cheap!" Now months later, the H.B.I.C. (Head Barb In Charge) has tweeted a few pics of some of the things from her upcoming line. Well you guys be hitting up Kmart to get anything from her line??

RiRi Woo

2013-05-08T09:45:00.001-05:00

The wait is over!!!!!!!! Yesterday evening my husband walked in the room and handed me my favorite little black box! I couldn't wait to open it and see what it was going to look like....

Here's my review, I think that the colors are fairly close. In comparison to Ruby Woo, the RiRi Woo seems to be a teensy bit redder. The Retro Matte finish seems as dry as the Matte of Ruby Woo.

I was a little let down in the packaging tho because it looks nothing like the pic of products that Rihanna posted on Instagram a few months back and I thought that the RiRi Woo was going to be that deep Merlot wine colored lipstick that was pictured....but I'm guessing that maybe those things will be released later on or something.

All in all, I love the color because it does remind me so much of Ruby Woo, BUT I would say if you have Ruby Woo and missed out on RiRi Woo don't beat yourself up...and if you DON'T have Ruby Woo in your collection and missed out on RiRi Woo this time I would definitely suggest you picking it up when it comes out again this June!!

Pics of both below....

Love and kisses,

The Little Mermaid

2013-05-02T10:25:00.001-05:00

Hey guys!

This is a look that I re-created last night that came to me as a request from a friend on Instagram to do. I thought it was a super cute look and couldn't wait to get home to try it out! On of my Facebook friends named it the "mermaid look!"

We Found Love.....In RiRI Woo!

2013-05-02T10:07:00.000-05:00

Today at 12pm EST..... MAC is releasing the the first item from the Ri RI <3 MAC collection!!!!!

Thay are releasing the "RiRi Woo" lipstick today and its sure to sell out in hours!

Rihanna told Women’s Wear Daily:

“When you think of makeup, the brand that pops into your mind — for something legit — is MAC. Whatever color you want, it’s like ‘Let’s go to MAC.’ I’ve been using MAC on tour for such a long time it was a natural fit for me. I have always loved makeup, and I always said that if I do it, I want to do it with a credible brand.”

“Working with MAC, it’s difficult to get a red lipstick that beats Ruby Woo, because it works on every skin tone. I had so many different samples to choose from and so many different colors underneath — blue, yellow, orange and pink bases. And I got to pick one that worked, and I tried it on all my friends to make sure it worked on all of our skin tones.”

It your thinking about getting this you better already have www.maccosmetics.com pulled and be ready to click "ADD TO BAG."

UPDATE!!!!!

Sorry if you guys missed it loves...it sold out in 3 hours! But fret not my dwars, you'll get your chance again this June! Luckily I got mine and won't have to fight the crowd then!!!!

Love and Kisses,
Mimi <3
