Product Review: Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Red Velvet

Hello my lovelies!!!

I am back with a review of one of my absolute favorite products of the Holiday season. Now when I think Christmas, I think of red lipstick. Of course, if you've seen my Holiday lipstick video, then you know that I love all kinds of colors for this time of year, but you can't go wrong with an old fashion, sexy yet playful red lip!

With that being said, I have come to rediscover a product that I bought months ago when it first came out, but then I just stuck it in my drawer and forgot all about it until now. And that product, of course, is the lovely Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Red Velvet.

Mini Haul: High-End Palettes

Hello Lovelies,

I AM BACK!

Hope you all had a Happy Turkey Day!

I'm sorry I was away, but it was for good reason. I decided to participate in a Thanksgiving fast, which was basically me abstaining from anything having to do with blogging (writing, reading, or searching). It was tough, but I made it. And I can honestly say that my perspective on a lot of things has shifted... for the better.

But anyway, I wanted to bring you a post about my High-End palettes that I ended up purchasing from ULTA. I got three of them -- 2 from Urban Decay and the other from Smashbox. I was ecstatic that I was able to purchase all three of these! And now it's time to share my opinions on them! Yay for judgement!

Yeah, It's The Freakin' Weekend - 11/2/12

Hello lovelies,

We've reached another weekend! The first one for the month of November! Any big plans?? I'll be at a Women's Conference in Kansas City with a few good friends!

Yeah, It's The Freakin' Weekend - 10/26/12

Welcome to YITFW (Yeah, It's the Freakin' Weekend!)

It's the weekend before Halloween. And I don't have any party plans. Nor do I plan on getting any. I honestly just look forward to watching a marathon of scary movies, eating popcorn, and candy - until my tummy explodes and I fall into a food coma. That sounds like a beautiful experience to me (for the most part).

Halloween to me is just a pathway to Thanksgiving and Christmas, and actually, Thanksgiving is practically looked over nowadays!

Oh well.

YITFW Funsies!

Mini Haul: Drugstore Palettes

Hello Lovelies,

Just wanted to quick share with you another find o' mine! I've recently discovered that I really like Wet N Wild's eyeshadows & blushes, so I've been constantly on the lookout for new products.

Well, folks, they delivered with three brand new eyeshadow collections.

There are 12 shades (plus an 18K gold top coat, that I did end up purchasing). The collection is divided into two sets: The Dangerous Shades and the Seductive Shades.

Let's get to the photos!

Hello my lovelies!

It's been over a week since my last post! Been busy busy busy. Nonetheless, I am back and with something that I have been waiting for a few months to receive again.... Influenster's VoxBox!

A few months ago, I received a VoxBox but I hadn't start my YouTube channel or my blog yet. But I am so excited to have gotten to opportunity to received a new box! And this box's theme is one that suits me oh so well: The Beauty Blogger box!

OOTD - The Blue Patriot

Hey lovelies,

Wow, I know! Two posts in a row, I must be on something! But I simply had to share this outfit with you, because it is becoming my favorite look of the season so far! As you already know, I am greatly obsessed with oversized sweaters, scarves, and boots (and sometimes fashionably placed pockets). Well, guess what? This look has all three (or four)! Bliss...

Here's the look!
