…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 took some shots to add to my Fashbo portfolio which I’ve added to this post as well.

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.

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.

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

My Signature Look

I’ve pretty much come to the conclusion that I have a major obsession with nude lips. My signature look seems to be smokey eyes & a simple nude lip.

I don’t even know how or when it all started but I was going through my lip products the other day and came across 99.9% nude colored lip glosses!This is just a small portion of the many nude glosses I own!

Nude glosses are simple & versatile and I think that’s why I’m so drawn to them. When I think about the last 10 years, my makeup techniques and looks have come a long way. Ok….ten years ago my signature look was…*cringe*…. snow white eyeshadow paired with a mauve/purple lip. In fact, I think my make up collection consisted of no more than…5 products? Oh goodness, thank god I have come a long way!


Although I have come a far way from “snow white eyes & purple lips” I would very much like to start using lipsticks again. I’ve heard some good things about MAC’s Crème de Nude lipstick. I picked it up this past weekend. I’m very excited. It’s a simple color & can be paired with many different looks!
