Hello, Dolls I don't know who makes up these national days, but, they can be fun! Today is National Lipstick Day! I wear lipstick every day; but, I thought it would be fun to post the shade that I love currently. Today, I'm wearing Electric Raine  liquid lipstick by Coloured Raine . I love how orange lipstick looks on skin, especially brown skin. It's very becoming. I usually wear this lipstick by itself; but, it also makes a great ombre' lip. To give it an amazing ombre' effect, you can add a deep purple lip liner- and then add orange in the middle- and blend. Or, you can add a red lippie to the perimeter of your lips, and add orange to the center, the results are beautiful! What lipstick are you wearing today?

I have been shopping from my ever growing makeup and beauty stash, by using products that I've had for a while. Because I'm a product junkie, I don't use the same exact products enough to view it as a fave; the reason being is that I typically have several other products just like it, from different brands. But, I've taken a break from buying products, so that I can save some coins, and use what I already have. Since I started doing this, I've rediscovered some awesome products. Below are some products that I've been using regularly, and loving! I also share one of my favorite authors of the moment. Read on for my thoughts!  Beauty - It's My Raye Raye Eyeshadow Palette - I've had this palette in my collection for a while, didn't start using it until this month when I took it with me on vacation. That's what happens when you have so many eyeshadow palettes, there's always one waiting to be used in the rotation. The Ra...

Hello, Dolls I have been shopping from my makeup stash, (rediscovering products that I've had for a while, but don't use often) and I have fallen in love with the Coloured Raine: Queen of Hearts eyeshadow palette. The foil eyeshadows are so amazingly pigmented; and the shadows blend so effortlessly. I wondered why I haven't used it more. Most of the eyeshadows that I used in this look are from that palette. Here is a quick selfie pic of the look I did.
