NYC New York Color Expert Last Lip Color Lipstick Collection

Image
**Press Sample** I saw this collection come through my little Press Release email round up and I was so excited. The colors are just awesome! They vary from a frosty beige to a bright red! They are perfect for any summer occasion.    The perfect balance: a mix of matte and satin! These satin matte shades are perfectly wearable, from day to night, from casual to glam, this lipstick will complete your look. The long lasting, amplified color wears up to 6 hours with a velvety and glamorous finish. The formula doesn't feather or bleed.  Smooth Beige The name is a perfect description of this color. It is almost the same color of my skin is close to MY perfect "nude". This would not be a color that I would wear often unless that washed out look comes back.  Creamy Mauve  This is one of my favorite colors. It is a creamy, pinky, beautiful color. I just love the way it looks on me. This color also is the clos...

Alpha Mani is Rocking the Letter S

Image
**Bought It** I have some interesting colors for this weeks Alpha Mani. As I said last week, we are winding down to the end and I was just told that there is something in the works for the next challenge. I really liked this one because it was super simple for me to join and I got to use so many polishes that were just sitting.   I did a little skittle with some simple stripes. I really like the way this turned out. It's simple yet super fun. The colors came together really nicely. I also love the opalescence in the Oh My Oceania. It gives it a nice lean in the right light. Color Used: Sinful Colors- Let's Meet Sation- Oh My Oceania  What do you think of this color combination? Do you own either of these colors? Any suggestions for next weeks letter "T"?

Skinny TeaTox Detox and Cleanse- What it Did for ME!

Image
**Powered by BrandBacker**  I am sooo excited to share this with you. I started this journey a little over 14 days ago and I couldn't have been happier that I did. I started my weight loss journey a year ago when I was overweight and I had enough. I was 100lbs in high school. Being 5ft tall, that was a normal weight for me. I was super active and super tiny! Then I went to college and it all went down hill from there.... So, here's a quick pictorial synopsis.  I had my son when I was super young. I managed to lose a lot of the weight, but when you gain 70 lbs when you are pregnant, that's not an easy feat!   I worked even harder because I got married 18 months after I had my son! I did also happen to party hard, too. Adjusting to life as a new, very young parent was super hard, too!   I went to grad school after graduating from my undergrad and all I did was party, party, party. Literally. I gained a TON of weight! Yeah, see that.   ...

Butter London Shine Out Loud Collection Bold Look!

Image
**Press Sample** I have something suuuper fun and quite different for me. I usually do pretty tame looks and nothing so sassy but when I saw the packaging on this along with the bright colors, I knew that I had to go bold! I have never tried Butter London makeup so I was so excited to try these. I am, however, an avid BL polish collector so I knew the makeup had to be of excellent quality. First up, I am going to show you the nails because well, the polish is GORG!! The best way this color can be described is ripe tomato. It is so pretty. Not too bright, not too overwhelming and not too red. Just the right mix of muted red/orange. Suppppper pretty! This Ladybird color is the color theme for the SHINE OUT LOUD look and I am loving all over it! Trend Nail Lacquer in the color Ladybird  is available for $15 and I highly recommend it. It applies so smoothly and opaque in 2 coats for me. High quality polish just like the usual Butter London. The Iconoclast Mega...
