MAC X Beth Ditto Collection swatches & review

Jul23

Hi Guys & Dolls!

I have a soft-spot for strong female singers- when I was a teen growing up I was all about Courtney Love, Fiona Apple and Alanis Morissette. Badass Rock Star girls were who I wanted to be friends with. Their no-holds barred brash rock ‘n’ roll and honest lyrics spoke to me, and told me that there wasn’t just one way to be a girl. In that vein is Beth Ditto. She’s nasty like Courtney, she has the big soulful voice like Fiona, talks about sex like Alanis. She’s also gay and she’s plus size, thankyouverymuch. When I found out MAC was doing a Beth Ditto collection I was elated!  It’s one of those collaborations that makes your head explode thinking of how awesome it could be.  Continue reading →

Hey Sailor! MAC product review & swatches

Jul18

Hi Guys & Dolls!

Are you loving the nautical trend? I myself am not much for sailing, but I love a man in uniform! I love the graphic stripes and I think it’s a wonderful modern interpretation of the 1940′s. The sexiness of the nautical trend makes me feel like Samantha Jones in the “Anchors Away” episode of Sex and the City, arguably the best show on Cable TV ever! Getting dolled up for your guy (or for yourself) is such an enjoyable experience and I love any trend that celebrates glamour!

I’ve had these products for a while and I thought they might be sold out by now, but today I did some searching online and found that all three of these are still available! Get them while you can!!

Milani Baked Eyeshadow Metallic & Marble New Shades for Spring 2012

Apr3

Hi Guys & Dolls! Is it just me or does it seem that there is a huge surge of Baked eyeshadows on the market- I’m not at all complaining, I love this type of wet/dry shadow; I love the option to apply color intense when it’s wet, or sheer when it’s dry. Also it’s undeniable that they look gorgeous in the pot. Milani recently expanded it’s range and I have all three to share with you today! Continue reading →

Milani Crystal Gloss Color Expansion for Spring 2012

Mar6

Hi Guys & Dolls!

Milani Crystal Gloss is a non-sticky lipgloss with a scent that Milani describes as “Cotton Candy” though I think it smells like caramel cookies. They have a sponge tip applicator that is a bit on the small side so you may need to do several pulls to get enough gloss on your lips. The tube appears small, but they contain 4.86gm of product, about the same as a MAC lipglass. They retail for about 5.49, and can be found an many different druggstores & mass retailers like Target. The color payoff varies from sheer to medium. Milani recently launched a few new colors for spring 2012 and I have 5 to share with you today. Continue reading →
