Shopping Goodies - Lime Crime





Hey loves! I am totally regretting not checking out the Lime Crime booth at IMATS last year. I will definitely make it a priority to check it out this year. I am beyond excited to try out more products from Lime Crime. Such a large variety of colors and the packing alone makes me want to have it a part of my makeup collection!

I bought My Beautiful Rocket lipstick and Candy Apple from the carousel collection. My Beautiful Rocket is an orange lipstick that is perfect for Spring and Summer. It is described as a true, luminous orange with no red undertones. The lipstick smells like vanilla and glide on so smoothly on my lips. I was in heaven. The color has an amazing staying power. I need to make a list of what I need to buy next. Candy Apple is on another level. No matter how many pictures I tried to take I could not capture how gorgeous it looks in person. It is described as a deep ruby-red with crimson glitter. I love to pair it on top of Ruby Woo lipstick for the perfect red lip!








» Price - My Beautiful Rocket Lipstick ($15.99). Candy Apple Carousel Gloss ($16.99).
» Availability - Lime Crime Makeup
» Overall Rating - I will definitely be purchasing more products from Lime Crime. The lipstick and carousel gloss have amazing lasting power. I was very impressed with my first purchase and can't wait to try out more fun colors!

Totally Loving - Urban Decay Super-Saturated High Gloss Lip Color






Official Description - Urban Decay's creamiest, most sumptuously pigmented lip pencil. This formula delivers all the opaque, saturated, high-impact color of your favorite lipstick and an arresting high-gloss finish in one chubby pencil.
Hello! This post is dedicated to a new love of mine, Urban Decay's Super-Saturated Lip Color in Lovechild. I will definitely be purchasing back ups of this color. I would always swatch it when I was at Sephora. It looked so pretty on my hand but I wasn't so sure it would translate that well on my lips. After looking online at a ton of lip swatches I though it was worth a shot. I am beyond happy that I purchased this! The color is so beautiful and I think it would go perfect with any makeup look. It is super easy to apply. I think of it as a bigger lip liner and it glides on so smoothly. It had stayed on all night and the color still looked vibrant at the end of the night. I am going to go back and try all of the other colors. This color would look beautiful on any skin tone so I highly recommend!

Shopping Goodies - MAC Me Over




Hello! Sorry for the lack of posts! I have been extremely busy getting everything ready for Zoe's 1st Bday Party! I still have a long list of stuff to do. It will all be worth it in the end! So I was super excited for the MAC Me Over collection that came out last week. I love the whole concept behind the whole collection. Here are some of the goodies that I picked up!

- Runway Red Lipstick - This color is beyond gorgeous. I love a good red lipstick and I have fallen in love with this one. I wore it out for a nice of fun Karaoke and it did not budge. It is a bit darker than Ruby Woo lipstick and I am sad that I did not get a backup! 

- Peachstock Lipstick - This color is permanent at PRO stores and I do work right next to the PRO store in SF but I wanted to pick this color up anyway. I can see myself pairing a lot of different lipglosses over this and I can wear it on an everyday basis.

- Social Light Lipglass - It is a soft brown with gorgeous gold sparkles. I love it! Can not wait to wear by itself or on top of different lipsticks!

- MAC 226 Small Tapered Blending Brush - This brush has gotten a lot of amazing reviews. It first came out in the Brunette, Blonde, Redhead collection and after that it was on everyone's "must have" list. It is perfect for doing awesome crease work. I can't wait to try it out.

Shopping Goodies - MAC Cosmetics



I did a presale on MAC's Semi Precious collection so luckily I did not have to deal with the chaos that was taking place at my local MAC counter this morning. At first nothing else really caught my eye but when I was there today I wish I would of tried Warmth of Coral blush or some of the lipsticks. Anyways, I just had to get the new brushes! I wanted to test out how the duo fiber brushes work so I am really excited to add these puppies to my already chaotic brush collection. I also had to get the Mineralize Charged Waters. I love how it makes my face feel and the scent is also a plus! I fell in love with Mineralize Skinfinish Semi Precious Rose Quartz. I can see myself using this from time to time and I don't think I can ever pass up an a new MSF that comes out. Oh Petticoat MSF how much I hope that you will make a comeback

Semi Precious Rose Quartz Mineralize Skin Finish

MAC 234 Split Fibre Eye Blending Brush & MAC 235 Split Fibre All Over Eye Brush


I can't wait to start using everything! I need to start posting more looks on here. I have been feeling kind of down because my whole "road to a healthy lifestyle" hasn't been going so well. I am 100% to blame of course but it is hard with a FT job and being a FT Mom. :( I need to start reading some mommy blogs and see what else I can try.

On a much lighter note, I was beyond excited to find out that my boyfriend bought me special goodies from MAC's Blogger Obsession collection! I was drooling over Christine's Jealousy Wakes eyeshadow and Karen's Evolution Revolution lipglass! I was at work when it launched and he surprised me with the order confirmation # when I got home. Gotta love him!! Look at the gorgeous goodies. I can not wait to see what I can pair Jealousy Wakes with and I know I can wear Evolution Revolution on top of anything on a daily basis!
