Orange is the new black this year: 2014
Orange is the new black this year. You see many celebrities and models in magazines wearing bright, bold, orange lipstick colours. I'm actually loving this trend and think orange lipstick brightens up your face and makes a statement. Its a bit daring to wear but there are many options of different shades of orange available out there to suit your complexion.

Sephora Sample Review
I had these samples from Sephora lying around and I thought it was great idea to the review these products.
Becca Ever-Matte Poreless Priming Perfector - To start off I'm going to say I absolutely LOVE this primer. I have oily to combination skin and this is such a great primer that mattifies your skin before you put on your foundation. This primer comes in a apple sauce kind of consistency its kind of sticky but as you work it onto your face it almost sucks out all the oil and shine off your skin in an instant. This primer made my foundation glide on so smoothly and evenly. My foundation stayed matte all day long!
This primer is great for those who have really oily skin especially in the summer. It will make your foundation stay matte even in hot and humid weathers. I definitely want to purchase this product!
NARS Pure Radiant tinted moisturizer - This is a really good tinted moisturizer with an SPF. It feels really light and airy on the face. The texture of this tinted moisturizer is really smooth and nice. It has really good coverage for a tinted moisturizer which is also a plus and leaves your skin feeling hydrated all day long. This tinted moisturizer comes in 13 shades providing different undertones to match your complexion.
Hourglass Immaculate Liquid Powder Foundation Mattifying and Oil Free - This is another product I instantly fell INLOVE WITH! This foundation is made for people who have oily skin and is great for the summer! This foundation gives a medium coverage, it glides on smoothly and gives your face a nice powdery finish. I love the consistency of this foundation and it also feels really nice when applied on the skin.
This foundation looks beautiful all day long! I really want to go purchase this!
Jack Black Glycolic Facial Cleanser - This cleanser is amazing. I washed my face with this and it left my face looking clean, it minimized my pores, my skin felt hydrated, and it evened out my skin tone as well. Overall this is a great product!

Urban Decay Naked Palette 3 - Swatches & Makeup Look
I finally got my hands on the Urban Decay's rose gold inspired Naked Palette 3! I'm excited to share swatches and a makeup look I created with this beautiful palette on today's blog post. This palette offers 12 beautiful rose gold inspired mattes and metallics. This palette also came with 4 samples of Urban Decay's eyeshadow primer (Original, Eden, Sin, Anti-aging which I haven't tried ) and a doubled ended eyeshadow brush. You can create many different beautiful eyeshadow looks with this palette. The shades are nicely pigmented, smooth and blendable.
Here are the swatches starting from the top:
- Strange - matte
- Dust - metallic (Out of all of the colours this one its comes out dusty, metallic and shimmery)
- Burnout - matte
- Limit - matte
- Buzz - metallic
- Trick - metallic
- Nooner - matte
- Liar - metallic
- Factory - metallic
- Mugshot - metallic
- Darkside - looks metallic but comes off matte
- Blackheart - comes off matte with gold sparkles
Here is a look I created using trick in the inner corners of my eyes, liar on my lid, mugshot on my outer crease blending it onto the outer corner of my eye, I then used strange underneath my eyebrow and blended everything out. I also added dark side on my lower lash line to define my eye. To finish the look off I added some eyeliner on my upper lash line, some mascara and white liner on my bottom water line.
And don't forget to prime your lids so that your eyeshadow will be kept in place and look nice all day long!
I hope you enjoyed my post thanks for visiting!
