MAC Lipstick in Ruby Woo

I went into the mall today with my friend and wasn't expecting to purchase anything, because I was just there for her. There was a MAC store and of course I automatically walked in. I have been dying to try "Ruby Woo" from MAC. I have been trying to purchase "Riri Woo" from Rihanna's collection, but I was unable to get my hands on it. I looked around online and have found that "Ruby Woo" and "Riri Woo" are very similar colors and textures. 
I purchased it and immediately put it on the moment I got home. This color is your classic red and I believe it looks great on all skin tones. The picture above doesn't do the color any justice. This lipstick is such a perfect matte red, and lasts on your lips even after you have eaten or drank something.

NOTD: Baby Pink with Gold

This is my first post in the year 2014! Hope you all had an amazing New Year's and wishing you all nothing but the best in the year 2014. I will consistently try to update and post more on this blog. Even though I may be busy and not have time to update it, I will try my hardest to create posts. 
Anyway, this is the first time I did my nails for the year 2014. I decided to go with a light pink from The Face Shop in "PK 101", because a light baby pink in my opinion goes with anything and everything. The gold on my ring finger is from Essie in the shade "Beyond Cozy". Something about pink and gold together looks very romantic and I just love the way it looks when combined.

Fresh Sugar Lychee eau de parfum Rollerball

I haven't posted a blog post in a very long time. There isn't an excuse, but the fact that I had to prepare for my first finals in college. Winter break started and I have just been relaxing and reminiscing about my first semester of college. I have to admit my first semester in college flew by and I have no idea where time has gone. And this is my last post in the year 2013!
Wishing you all a Happy New Year and a wonderful 2014!
Enough talking about myself and why I haven't been posting...we'll get into this perfume, Fresh Sugar Lychee. I have heard a lot about this perfume on the internet, talking about how good and fresh this perfume smells. I have finally found a rollerball size of this perfume at Sephora and decided to make a purchase. Since I have many perfumes and know for a fact that I can never finish a full size bottle, I always opt for the rollerball. This perfume is exactly what the name is, a very sweet, sugary, and fresh perfume. I think one of the top notes to this perfume would be lemon. This perfume is definitely a great item for someone who wants something that is light and fresh. I have been wearing this perfume almost every day, since I have gotten it.

Revlon's Parfumerie in Wintermint

I was browsing my CVS and was instantly attracted to these new Revlon polishes. The main reason was the bottle. I love the rounded cap! These polishes are supposed to have a faint smell after the polish has dried. I picked up "Wintermint" because it reminded me of a mermaid...and who wouldn't want to have mermaid nails? This color went on like a dream and dried relatively fast. The scent to this did not smell like winter mint but a very faint scent of something sweet... I love these polishes because they have such adorable packaging and apply like a dream!

September 2013 Favorites

Pssssst! Instant Dry Shampoo
This has been the dry shampoo I have been using consistently for the past couple of months. I am completely done with the can...anyways this has a baby powder smell to it (which I am not a huge fan of) but it is AMAZING! It absorbs the oils like a dream and keeps my hair matte for the whole day! I spray this on second day hair and it's just a dream!

Out The Door Matte Top Coat For Nails
After seeing the matte top coat trend for months I decided to pick up a bottle for myself! If you didn't know... Out The Door makes my favorite regular top coat! It dries literally in seconds. I love the look of matte nails for a chic effect. The only downfall I found in this was that my nails don't stay looking matte for as long as I want it too, but other than that, this gives my nails the amazing matte look for 2-3 days!

Real Techniques Buffing Brush
I have been using this brush to buff my foundation in for the longest time! This gives my face a beautiful finish and blends everything into my face like a dream. It keeps my morning face routine to a minimal amount of time!

Real Techniques Blush Brush
I haven't been using this brush for blush...but bronzer. I guess bronzer and blush are about the same, right? This has been a breeze for me to contour my face. It doesn't give me that chiseled look for my face but an everyday natural bronzey look.

Physician's Formula Bronze Booster
I have been using this bronzer consistently. I have the light to medium shade and I just swirl my Real Techniques Blush Brush into it and it looks nice without looking too orangey. I adore using this product to give my face some color.

Maybelline Colossal Volume Cat Eyes in Waterproof
I have been layering this mascara on top of any volumizing mascara I am wearing for that day. This helps my lashes look longer and helps me lock everything in so I know my mascara won't smudge around my eyes.

Maybelline Baby Lips in Peach Kiss
I love using this product for my lazy days. The days where I just need some color to my lips but I don't feel like pulling out a lip balm and lipstick. This is a 2 in 1 product for me. Especially now that I have started school and can be in a rush to get out the door in the morning!

Snickers Fun Size Chocolates
Now that I am a college student, I have back to back classes and each class is an hour and half long! So when I am feeling hungry I have this little guy to keep me going for the rest of the day till I can actually go and get real food.
