Rambles Of A Glamour Girl

Sunday, January 31st, 2010

So today was pretty chill-I threw on my comfiest outfit and went to the mall to pick up a few tops from Charlotte Russe that are going to come in handy for future shoots as well as Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day & my birthday. I also painted my nails a bright & festive pink color for Valentine’s Day.  I paired OPI’s “Got a date to-knight” & “Princesses Rule”.

Today I did a simple smoky eyed matte look using my Too Faced Natural Eye Neutral Palette, Laura Geller Liquid Candlelight & MAC’s Underage.

I got my bangs cut this past week too-I was in desperate need of a trim. I’m still getting used to how short they are now! Ahh!

Hope you all have a fabulous week.

…bought Creme D’Nude from MAC and….I’M IN LOVE. I’ve never found a lipstick that worked so perfectly for me. It’s fabulous & such a flattering shade for my skin tone.

I was oh so happy with how my eyes turned out too! I created a really awesome maroon smoky eye using MAC’s eye shadows in Jest, Sable & Sketch. With a little bronzer & MAC’s Creme D’nude-I feel head over heels in love with this look.

Sultry Romantic Look

Wow! Valentine’s Day is just about 3 weeks away so I decided to try to create a Valentine’s Day inspired look. As you know, I am all about the smoky eye so I wanted to incorporate that into the look. I call this look my Sultry Romantic look. I’m always looking for more ways to wear more pink eye shadow and what I really love about this look is it’s a nice spin to such a classic look.

MAC eye shadow in: Sweet Lust
A shimmery black eye shadow from one of my Too Faced Quickie palettes
An iridescent white eye shadow (also from my) Too Faced Quickie palette

Merry Christmas! Can you believe that this decade is just about over!? My Christmas was absolutely awesome. Santa got me everything I wanted & more. I am truly grateful.

I came up with this beautiful look on my eyes using the MAC pigments-from the Mischief Makers that came out this Holiday season. I am quite impressed with MAC’s Relects Antique Gold Glitter, it was absolutely perfect a golden smokey Christmas look!

Purrrrr: My Kitten Classic Look

Sunday, October 4th, 2009

Today I used my Stila Smudge Pot in Kitten as well as the regular Stila eye shadow in Kitten and my Kitten Lip Glaze to create what I call my “Kitten Classic Look”. It’s really just an awesome champagne golden smokey brown look. I plan to do a tutorial for my YouTube channel using this look within the week so be on the lookout!

Quick Update

Sunday, September 20th, 2009

Hi Everyone!


So, I have been MIA these last few weeks. I started my new job 3 weeks ago and it’s keeping me mucho busy. I want to try to get a “beauty favorites” video in this week. I love when people share their favorite beauty products so I thought, why not do one too?? I bought quite a few a lot products from MAC, Sephora & Stila these last few weeks. I can’t wait to share with you!


Today was awesome. I had a shoot in the heart of the city. It was the first time I had ever gone to Love Park! I felt like such a tourist in my own city….lol

Mucho xo’s!

MAC Hello Kitty Collection

Wednesday, February 4th, 2009

So MAC & Hello Kitty teamed up to make a collection. I have to say that when I heard about this, I got really excited because I LOVE Hello Kitty. Unfortunately I wasn’t blown away when I saw pictures of the collection. Out of the whole Mac Hello Kitty collection, I think there was 2 lip glasses that I really want. I feel that the colors (especially the eye shadows) in the collection  are quite boring & could have been much more vibrant. And the packaging? It’s just way too ordinary!!!  The prices are just a little too ridiculous, a plush doll alone will set you back $42. A beaded bracelet? Try $34!!

Another con is the fact that Hello Kitty is black…everything in her face blends together! You lose a lot of the detail. 

Nice try, MAC.
