Late night

2
Hey guys! I was hoping to have a few more videos up by now, but no such luck. I went to Sephora yesterday and came out with the Smashbox Photofinish Primer - I'm loving it!, NARS Greek Holiday - fabulous!, and NARS Pressed Powder - my HG! Anyway, I will be doing reviews and tutes on these soon. Also... my KONAD came in! So exciting! I think I did a pretty good job for my first time... I was a little disappointed with my polish though. I did not purchase the special Konad polish, however I've heard of a couple of tricks and some equivalent polishes that will work well. It's not that the polish doesn't work, but it's not as thick as the Konad Special Polish so it is not as dark. I am going to mess around with it some though. I will also be posting tutes on how to use the Konad set as well. Have a great night!

OPI Polish in Koala Berry for the base and Maybelline Express Finish in Black. You can see what I mean about the black not being very vibrant, but all in all I think it turned out well!

Sephora stop and new videos coming

0
Hey guys! I'm making a much anticipated trip to Sephora tomorrow. I have a couple things on my list I already use that I'm going to pick up, but there's a few new items I want to try. Here's the rundown:
1) Smashbox Photofinish Primer
I've heard lots of good things about this and I've been curious about it for awhile now, so I'm thinking about picking up a bottle

2) NARS lipgloss in either the color Striptease or Greek Holiday
My favorite nudey gloss, Garden from Bare Escentuals, was discontinued and I've been wanting another one for awhile and I've read up on these and they seem like they might be a good match

3) Smashbox Brow Tech
I've used Anastasia's brow products for a couple of years now and I like them fine - I have a kit that came with four pots that's lasted me for awhile! The only thing I don't care for is that all my wax is gone and I still have a pot of the darker brow color that I'm not really crazy about. With the Smashbox, you have one color and one wax in a little compact. This way, I would hope, you would use the powder and the wax together and you would be less likely to have a lot of one or the other left over.


I have some new videos coming... hopefully within the next day or two! I'm going to do a few reviews on some great products I've enjoyed using for awhile as well as my new purchases from Sephora tomorrow.
