Saturday staples!

Saturday, August 9, 2014

Another Saturday has come, another weekend started and sadly ending all to soon. So i thought we could have a little chat about the things i have been loving

Now this week i have been really having some skin issues. As im sure all ladies can attest when its that special/horrible time we get aches and pains and in my case not so pretty skin. I was a teenage with a flawless complexion so know this pains me greatly. But because i really wanted to let my skin breathe and heal this last week. So these have been my go toos for the healing process. It was a very drug store kinda week.

The Products
* Little Mix by Collection Full on Mascara
* Ulta Automatic Liner - Black
* Maybelline Master Precise By EyeStudio - Black
* Maybelline Dream Pure BB
* Elf Glossy Gloss - Sweet Salmon
* L'oreal Glossy Balm - Ginger Candy
* Fergie Wet & Wild - Fergie Daily
* Revlon Colorstay lipliner - Natural

Now ive only rocked the BB cream twice, because i have been trying to let my skin clear. But when i have this is the one i choose because it does have 2% Salicylic Acid which helps in acne treatment. My daily moisturizer has .5% so i try not to over do it because it can make your skin very sensitive to the sun.

Makeup aside i have been finishing up season 2 of Hemlock Grove which can we just say, amazing! Creepy and out there but im obsessed. And my son pick this week, which i couldnt get in the picture because my ipod has gone MIA has to me Maps by Maroon 5, and yes i have pre-ordered the new album, ive been in love with them since i was in high school!

What things have you lovelies been gaga over this week? Anything new i should be trying?

Makeup crush Friday! Perrie Edwards

Friday, August 8, 2014

For this makeup crush Friday i went total opposite of the spectrum. While last time i celebrated the simple in life this week i want some of the daring flare of the beautiful Perrie Edward. A member of the X factor UK winning band Little Mix Perrie is one fourth of a powerhouse girl power group thats currently sweeping the world. (Want a good listen, their Salute album, no need to thank me or skip tracks, you are welcome in advanced!) Perries style has changed drastically form her X Factor days and its this constant evolution that makes her one of my Makeup crushes.

Perries most current Makeup looks are a few steps up form her old ones. Where she used to fall back on black eyes and a fun funky lip color now shes really branched out, sometimes rocking smoked out neutrals, and nude pouty lips, and other times rocking her black liner and purple lipstick in true Perrie fashion. Little mix has worked with Collection (A lovely UK makeup brand) and put out products for eat girl that help you get their look. A few of Perries pieces have become staples in my makeup collection. Hes is the only purple lip that looks good on me!

Most recently she has been really working the super pouty nude lip that has helped make Kylie Jenner super talked about. Perries coloring is very different form my own but i think it speaks volumes that a blonde with blue eyes rocks looks that can be emulated by someone with dark hair and eyes and an olive complection and still look good. This past July 10th was Perries 21st birthday and her makeup was done by her bands makeup artist, Adam Burrell. For the day he posted the look, along with a list of the products used and well wishes for her special day.


Below is a list of products used on Perries birthday, and the look is featured in the third picture here.

* BarryM Brown Soft Eye Crayon
* Charlotte Tilbury The Golden Goddess Luxury Palette
* Illamasqua Precision Ink
* House of lashes Siren lashes
* HD brows Bombshell Palette
* Charlotte Tilbury Ibiza Beach Stick Bronze
* BarryM Russet Lip Liner
* Lord and berry Lipstick Crayon in Blush

I do love that Perrie uses a healthy mix of drug store goodness and high end, it makes her look so much more accessible and helps show others the gems you can find at a bargain.

Whos makeup have you been loving lately? And what are some of the products you have just been dying to incorporate in your everyday looks?
