Summer Blush Lovin' Du Jour 5.29.09

Right now I am obsessed with cheek products and these two blushes are my summer MUST haves. They are the beauty powder blush formula from MAC. Stay put for hours and are SUPER pigmented. I am so impressed by these two suckers.

On a Mission is the most gorgeous plummy pink blush, it instantly lifts and brightens any skin tone. Dark enough to help sculpt which I love.

Eversun is by far my HG of blushes right now. Eversun is literally like putting natural sunlight on your face, it warms you right up and makes you glow! I would usually look right past an orange toned blush, but thank god I tried this. It does not look orange on your cheeks, it somehow transforms to the most perfect peach glow.

Am I raving yet?

On a Mission on the right, and Eversun on the left.

GO OUT AND TRY THIS! Trust me on this one...

Style Warriors Collection Du Jour 5.22.09


Style Warriors is finally here. Of course, now that its here my excitment has died down. TYPICAL.

Also, I semi hate animal print (except on a RARE occasion) so I kinda didnt realize I was going to HATE the packaging. Luckily, everything I got did not have that on it! I already threw away the animal print boxes.

Anyway, I do love my products I bought and in MY opinion what I bought were really the stand outs for ME! Meaning my taste and for my skin tone, we have to remember everything looks different on different skin tones! That is what is so great about MAC, it really is for everyone!




Anyway, I purchased:
  • Soft Force eye shadow, a buttery, soft, light champagne color
  • Night Manuevers eye shadow, This is not getting enough love from other people, for ME this is the perfect brown, I like cool browns more than warm so this is right up my alley. It is a sheer buildable shade, which I like because I can determine the intensity.
  • Pink Rebel Lustre Drops, love in a bottle. I will need to pick up the other colors of this.
  • Scatterrays Solar Bits, LOVE this, I do not find it as chunky as other people, this is a less orange melon pigment. Super frosty and metallic, I quite like the application of this.
  • Impassioned Solar Bits, See above. This looks like liquid Satin Taupe eyeshadow, highly metallic, wonderful cool brown again.
  • Mercenary Nail Polish, new favorite nailpolish, looks like liquid copper, so shimmery. Not sparkly, shimmery.

Mercanary Nail Polish... helllooooo, you all need this!

What I skipped and Why:
  • Lipsticks, well I only like nudes and they had one nude, Brave New Bronze...I was excited for this but EW. Too dark and brownish peach on my hand. I did not swatch yet on my lips because I was really scared away by the darkness of it. I hated it actually. Good, better for my wallet! Although I think this would be great for brunettes!
  • Beauty Powder Blushes, they are VERY pigmented and look to be of GREAT quality. I gravitate towards pinky blushes, not peach and mauves so this is why I skipped. I will go back and test On a Mission though. Could be great for a subtle blush!
  • Bright Future and Vibrant grape shadows, I thought for sure I would be buying the Vibrant Grape, it was too pinky red of a purple. Did not call out to me. I liked Bright Future but I dont wear yellow shadows.
  • Bronzers, might go back for that, not a must have, will look at Refined Golden as Solar Riche is a bit too orangey for me.
  • Violet Fire and Peaceable Nail polish.. very dupable.
  • Lipglasses...whatever!
What are you guys going to get?
Will be posting a FOTD after!

MAC Sneak Peek Du Jour 5.11.09

Hello All, here is a sneak peak of the Naked Honey Collection coming out in June and Style Warrior's debuting next week!!! Exciting!!!

Naked Honey
I am very much looking forward to Naked Honey. I love golds and shimmery summer colors. The Highlight Honey Comb powder looks perfect for the dewy shimmery beach skin.

Style Warriors



I know everyone is excited for this one, I am sure this will sell out VERY quickly as does all MAC summer limited edition collections. I hope that purple is vibrant in person...HAHAH I think I might overdose on purples by the end of summer, I think! The nude lipstick in Brave New Bronze looks promising.

What will you all be getting?

MAC Collection Du Jour 4.25.09


I have been hearing lots of rumblings about this collection coming up and I have to say after being very dissapointed with MAC's new one out right now Rose Romance, I am psyched for Style Warriors. Above are the Promo shots from Tempalia.com. The first picture really grabs me, the bronzed, golden goddess type. I don't wear bright yellow so the second does entice me into the products, but it is a great shot, very tribal.

I am very excited for:
  • Lustre Drops- You can add this to your foundation to give you sheen and a dewy look. You all know how keen I am on this.
  • SOLAR BITS!! Eyeshadow pigment chunks, sorta...bad way to describe that.
  • Soft Force (Soft Champagne), Night Maneuvers (Brown- Taupe) and Vibrant Grape (Purple!! My new favorite color for Summer!!!) eyeshadow. I love shimmery soft nudes, taupes and Purple. I will be leaving off Bright Future (Yellow)
