Tarte True Blood Palette Review

2011-12-08T13:42:00.000-08:00

I hope everyone is doing great and that you have had a wonderful week so far. I just uploaded my latest video onto Youtube featuring the Tarte True Blood Limited Edition Palette.

This palette was my first purchase of the Tarte brand. It comes with 17 eye shadows, sample size eye primer, sample size mascara and a full size retractable eyeliner.

I do like their eyeshadows in this palette very much. The texture is creamy and they blend effortlessly and I find all the shadows to be opaque with minimal fallout. They give you a nice variety of shades to choose from. Some are Matte, some have shimmer and some have a bit of glitter but not like the ones that end up all over your face instead of on the lid.

However I'm not a lover of the full size eyeliner that comes with this palette. It's the Aqua gel eyeliner. I have a love hate relationship with this eyeliner, because it's so incredibly soft that you have to be so gentle with it so it doesn't break on you. The slightest bit of pressure and the tip will break off, it's that easy. It will smudge so make sure you set it with a shadow or powder of some sort. What I do love about it is that it's so opaque. It's one of the blackest eyeliners I have ever tried. I give it an A+ for that. I have not tried it in my waterline yet. I'm a bit nervous because one review I saw of it from The Makeup Geek is that she used it in someones waterline and it made their eyes sting and water. So you can see why I'm a little hesitant to try it. If you have tried it in the waterline please let me know what your reaction was to it.

This palette also comes with their own eyeshadow primer called Lifted a natural eye primer with Firmitol. I have tried it with their eyeshadows and I've tried it with Urban Decay, MAC, and Too Faced Shadows. I have had the same results with all the different brand of shadows and that is, that it creases on my lids after several hours. I do have oily eye lids.

My Holy Grail eye shadow primer is Too Faced Shadow Insurance with Urban Decays Primer Potion following right behind.

This palette also comes with a sample size of their famous "Lights, Camera, Lashes" mascara. I have only tried their mascara once and that was today. So I can't give you a review of it yet.

Since buying this palette I have purchase a few other items from the Tarte line. I have tried the ReCreate silicone-free primer with Wrinkle Rewind technology. I must say that I like that primer very much even more then my Laura Mercier primer which has been my Holy Grail of primers, but with Tartes primer, you only need a small amount to cover your entire face and it also feels moisturizing which is a plus for this dry skin gal.

I also enjoy Tartes Smooth Operator Amazonian clay illuminating serum. I add a pea size amount to my liquid foundation. I find that it helps to keep my foundation moisturizing all day and adds a little enhancement to the color.

I have a sample size of the Tarte Park Ave Princess mineral bronzer. I'm very picky when it comes to bronzers. I don't like any shimmer in them. Looking like a disco ball is not very appealing to me. I do find that there is a hint of shimmer to Tarte bronzer, but not enough to make me cringe. I do find their amount of shimmer to be flattering.

I enjoy palettes that come with extra sample items like this one with a eye liner, eye primer, and a mascara. It gives you a chance to sample some of their other items that you might not ever try. I believe the more samples in a palette the better, because if I like it then I would go and buy the full size item.

My first purchase from a Blog sale.

2011-12-02T09:07:00.000-08:00

Well just like the title says, I bought my first items from a blog sale. It was easy, pain free and like gambling in a way or even being at a silent auction. I saw the items ahead of time, new the set prices and then was told what day and at what time this sell would start. It was a first come first serve type of thing. You placed your order hoping that nobody else had asked for that item before you and then the game begins.
You sit there by your computer waiting to see if you are the one that receives the email for the invoice from pay pal. Are you sad, or are you happy?? Did you get there first or did someone else beat you.
This is how I did it. I saw the items and made a list of the ones I wanted. When it came time I left my order in the comment section of the blog, hoping I was the first to ask for those items. As the minutes went by I saw I wasn't the first one on some of the items but I was on some of the other items, which made me excited. Now this is where the waiting begins. The person having the blog sell now starts with the very first person with the first comment and sends them a invoice for the items they ask for and so on down the line.
I received a invoice for 4 of the 9 items I asked for. Not bad I would say for a first timer. Then hours go by to see if the other items you asked for are still available or were they purchase by someone else. There were over 70 comments of people asking for the same things. I went through every comment and made a list of what was asked for and what was not asked for. There were 3 items that nobody ask for, so I placed my second order and to my delight I was able to purchase those items.
I will say this, I found that I very much enjoyed the blog sell. It was fun, exciting, thrilling, disappointing and aggravating all in one. Would I purchase again from a blog sale.. You bet I would and I even look forward now to having my own blog sale.

Birch Box, Glymm and LuxeBox by Loose Buttons.

2011-11-24T16:57:00.000-08:00

I hope you are all doing well this fine day. Today I would like to talk about a service that started in America and YouTube beauty guru's have made it a very big item. This is called Birch Box. This was only available in the States but now, we here in Canada have something the same called Glymm (which is one service) and LuxeBox by Loose Buttons is the other service that Canada has to offer. You get it delivered to your door once a month and it contains 4-5 deluxe samples and once in awhile there will be a full size item. These items are all beauty related in some way. Whether it's a moisturizer or a nail polish, eyeshadow or a shampoo and even on the occasion there may be a sweet delectable delight. This little surprise gift box you could call it, is only $10.00CAD (Glymm) and $12.00CAD(Loose Buttons) a month. Now who wouldn't like to receive something like this in the mail once a month, and for that price...why not I say.
So yes I have subscribed to both of these services starting the month of November. I will give each one a three month trial to see which one I think is the best. So far from the video's I have watched on YouTube, I can't make up my mind which one is best. I must say they both have had some great items in there boxes like a full size eyeshadow by Laura Mercier. A full size bottle of Essie Nail polish and the list goes on. The deluxe samples are even a nice size as samples go. Now they are bigger samples then you get at the drug store or a free sample with a online purchase.
If I were you I would check out some of these You Tube video's of these boxes and decide for yourself or wait til mid November to see what I think of My first impressions of the surprise sample boxes.

My first video in over a year is on YouTube!

2011-11-16T17:58:00.000-08:00

My first video in a long time is now up on YouTube for your viewing. I hope you enjoy it. The collection is from awhile ago. I uploaded this video to my computer, but couldn't find it until now. I thought you might still like to see it even though it's a bit late and you can't get the products in MAC Stores any longer. As they were Limited Editions. You can always check their website and they may still have a few items left.

Hi everyone my newest video is uploaded on You Tube already and it's MY First Haul. I had so much fun doing this video that it has a Two Part to it. As I say in the video that it's a new year and a new beginning so I guess I will do a couple of reviews before the next haul and somewhere there will be a makeup tutorial.
If there is something that you would like me to review then leave me a message and I will get to it very soon. If there is something in my haul video's that you would like to see a review of then please let me know.
I had some trouble with my lighting and showing the colors of the products but that was only temporary as I'm working on the lighting now and will be ready for my next video witch might be a review or a haul cause this week I have gathered a lot of stuff and much being drug store stuff which is unusual for me. I usually go for the higher priced items but thought I would give drugstore products a chance and I always love their mascaras.

Merry Christmas everyone! Hope Santa brought you all what you wanted.
I haven't been around for awhile but I'm back now and I will be making a new makeup video in the next couple of days.
I plan on doing my video's a little different then I have been.
I will be taking away the music from the beginning, because I found it to be annoying and would turn the sound off before watching. So if I was doing that what were other people doing? Plus I'm the one that picked the music...lol
There will also be some little changes here and there. I haven't worked them all out yet.
I hope you all have a wonderful New Year.
We have no plans for New Years Eve but there is a Three Stoogest Marathon on NYE!
Have a good one everyone and please stay safe.

Hi everyone, Happy October to you all.

I finally made a new make up tutorial for YouTube and plan on getting a few more up.These are the pictures from that tutorial using green and purple with a little pink.

The room I film my tutorials in is a small room but it gets so hot and with the summer we had here the room was roasting and would take me a couple of hour to film because I would have to go and cool down. But now the weather is a bit cooler and the room is not over heating so it more comfortable to film in with the big bright lights.

I will be putting up another make up contest soon, once I figure out what the contest will be about.

If you have any request for me to make a tutorial then please leave the request here in the comment section or email me at veneeta5@live.ca

I will put a list down below of all the products i used to get this look. It's not one of my normal looks. This one is not all out there like my others but this one was so simple and very soft looking I really liked it and have worn it out lately with many compliments. I don't normally wear black on my waterline but it certainly made a nice difference when I did it for this video, I will be doing that a little more from now on.

Here is the products I used to get this look:

Too Face Shadow insurance

NYX Lime Pearl Mania

MAC's Viz-A-Violet Pigment

MAC's Pinked Mauve Pigment

MAC's Pink Opal Pigment

Maybelline Unstoppable eyeliner in onyx

Rimmels Soft Kohl liner in White

Quo false eye lashes #803

L'Oreal Telescopic mascara in Black Brown

NYX Diamond Sparkle Lipstick in Sparkling Flower

Hi my dear lovelies, how are you this fine month of September?
My contest is CANCELLED as of September 17,2009.
I will be updating this later with more information about the cancellation.

My contest is up and in progress on YouTube.

I decided that the contest would be a Masquerade mask that you drew on your face using any kind of make up and you can use feathers, glitter, rhinestones and anything you can think of.

The picture I have above is me with a butterfly mask drawn on my face to give you an idea of what I want. You can copy a mask or come up with one all of your own. Here are the rules:

If you are 18 years or younger you must have a parent or guardians permission, so if you win, your parents don't have a problem with you giving me your address.

If using still photos, I want to see your progress from start to finish and the same goes for if you are sending in a video, I want to see every step by step of your work.You may enter 2 times but only 2 times. You MUST be a SUBSCRIBER of mine to be eligible to enter.The most important thing of all is to have fun.

The prizes that the winner will receive in the mail are: A 13 piece brush set from Coastal Scents and also the 78 eyeshadow,blush palette from Coastal Scents. These 2 prizes are great for someone that is new to the make up world as well as the girl with everything. These are 2 great prizes that I'm sure the winner will love.

If I don't have 15-20 entries to this contest then the contest will be cancelled and will be changed to something else that more people would want to enter. Because this takes an entire day to draw on the face. My picture above is nothing special but it took me all afternoon and most part of the evening to finish.If I don't receive a certain amount of subscribers by the 18Th of September then I will be changing the contest to something more fun to do.
I will update my blog with further information as the days go on.
