Holiday Shades of Red

With the holidays around the corner, this means attending holiday work parties and several friends and family gatherings, and planning what to wear, deciding on your makeup look can be a struggle. For me, I'm always thinking of changing my makeup look to being holiday inspired and it's all about finding the perfect shade of red lipstick.  

I like to be bold with my lipstick and have learned what works for my olive skin tone. Depending on where you are going, you want to also make sure you are considering the formula of the lipstick. A lip stain works best because I don't have to reapply every minute but any formula will do, as long as you don't mind reapplying all the time. 

I went through my lipstick collection and gathered five of my top favorite shades of red. Some are blue undertone and some are an orange-red undertone. I have a variety of lip stains, a lipstick, and two glosses. 

Marc Jacobs Lip Creme in So Rouge 

This was given to me last year as a VIB Rouge Perk at Sephora

Nars Velvet Lip Glide in Le Palace 

(Lipgloss formula but semi-matte)

Fenti Beauty by Rihanna Stunna Lip Paint in Uncensored

(Lip Stain super long-wearing and rich in pigment)

Colour Pop Cosmetics Ultra Satin Lip in First Class

(Super longlasting formula)

Bite Beauty Amuse Bouche Liquified Lipstick in Flambe

 (Liquid lipstick and high in pigment)

And remember this is what works for me. Good luck! 

Until next time........... Xoxo 

Friendsmas 2017 with Besties

I am beyond blessed to have these girls as my best friends. I trust them and can always rely on in time of need. We are always celebrating birthdays, anniversaries and just anything that is important in our lives. 

This year, we celebrated the holiday season with our Annual Friendsmas, 2017. It was hosted by my very own cute Blondie's home. It felt much for enjoyable and comfortable, rather than going to busy restaurants. We all brought stuff to eat, drink and be merry. 

We picked out names prior so after dinner we exchanged our gifts and just laughed at all the silly things we had to say about each other.

Her husband was our bartender, and let me tell you, he made the best drinks for us. They were all so good and full of cuteness. 

 It was seriously, the best Friendsmas gathering we had so far. But the best is yet to come......

Belif Moisturizing Eye Bomb Voxbox

I was again chosen to be part of this voxbox. This time around it was an eye cream from Belif. This brand is a K-Beauty brand (Korean Brand) and we all know, any Korean brand will do wonders on your skin. This eye cream is super rich, moisturizing, boosts elasticity and smooths out fine lines around your eye area. 

I was greatly appreciated to be receiving this product because we all need a boost of hydration during the winter time. I apply a dime size around my eye area and orbital bone at night so my skin can regenerate at night. I've been using it for the past couple months and I can tell this product is working on my skin. 

Thanks +Influenster to the opportunity! 

Until next time................. Xoxo
