Wet n Wild " Pride" Look of the Day

Yay me, I won another giveaway from Cosmetic Kay's beauty blog. I won all 4 of the Wet n Wild color icon eyeshadow palettes plus some other extras! I did a look featuring the Pride palette which consists of greens, blues and whites.

The palette comes in 6 colors: 3 shimmers and 3 matte shadows. I normally try to keep it simple and use 3 shadows at the least when I'm doing eye makeup but this time I decided to live a little... I used all 6 shadows.







PRODUCTS USED

Eyes

-Elf brow kit in medium
-Mac Painterly paint pot as an eye base
-matte white in the tear duct and inner eye area
-matte green in the middle of my lid
-matte blue and shimmer blue on the outter lid
-matte blue in the crease
-shimmer green above the crease
-shimmer white as my highlight color
-Elf waterproof eyeliner pen in black on upper lashline
-Mark enchanted forest (green) eye marker on lower lash line
-Maybelline Falsies Volum mascara

Face

-Mufe HD foundation in 173 Amber
-Black Opal Truly Topaz creme stick foundation as concealer
-NYX Bronze Goddess cream blush

Lips

-NYX Chestnut lip liner
-Mac Queen Bee lip glass (limited edition)

This was my first time using any of the Wet n Wild palettes, I was actually missing out on them... (I convinced myself that I didn't need to buy any more palettes but winning them is a different story!) they're easy to blend and they have a nice color pay off. I'll be doing a "look of the day" for the other 3 palettes.

Thanks again to Ms. Kayotic for the fabulous giveaway! Please check out her blog on my blog roll on the right. She's very talented and creative with FOTD's (face of the day) and she also has a You Tube channel. Check her out :)

Gabs, you look GORGEOUS! Those colors look really great. WnW has really stepped it up in the last few years! I remember wearing them back in high school, but the color payoff was nothing like this. Great job!

Well-Being: A Better Night's Sleep

  Hello, Dolls A good night's sleep is something I've been chasing after for years. Like many people, my nights can be chaotic. Not to mention, I've been suffering with insomnia for years, yes years.     It takes me a while to unwind and fall asleep, and when I finally do, I wake up several times throughout the night. I’ve taken several sleep aids and remedies through the years. I've tried teas, linen sleep sprays, over the counter and prescription aids, and almost every lavender night time product out there. Some were helpful at first, but after a while, I think my body got immune to it. So, I was very curious when Highline Wellness gifted me a bottle of their CBD Night gummies. I was skeptical at first, but they’re really working for me.  The melatonin helps you to fall asleep, and CBD helps you to stay asleep. I’m able to fall asleep faster, and stay asleep longer. An added benefit is I don’t wake up the next morning experiencing grogginess like I’ve felt with ot...

How I Refurbished my Louis Vuitton Speedy...

I bought an authentic preloved Louis Vuitton Damier Speedy bag a few months back. While I was so excited to finally get the bag and wear it, I realized (at that time of buying and when I received it) that the bag had some wear on it that could use some fixing up. After searching online, I found a blogger,  Lollipuff , who posted an article on how to refurbish LV bags. Based on the recommendations in the post, I used the following products: Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, Blue Magic Metal Polish cream (tube) and Cadillac Boot and Shine leather conditioner. I also used laundry detergent and baby wipes. All of the products used can be used on any bag to spruce it up. Read on for the deets, to see how you can spruce up your handbag! Before At first glance, the bag had some sheen on the exterior. Most of the brass fixtures had green tarnishing (which happens with aging of brass). The leather handles were dull. The bag had lost some of its shape. The inside was the kicker! The red in...
