Pink to make the boys wink

This cold weather can really put a damper on how you feel. Your skin is dry and chapped ( well, at least mine is) and you're longing for the warmer Spring/Summer months. I always find that wearing my favorite makeup, especially a feel good makeup like a bright pink lip can change your mood.
I am wearing Candy Yum-Yum from Mac on my lips, Beautiful Iris on my lid and shadowy lady in my crease, both from Mac.

New Goodies




Its been a while since I've blogged and I think right now is a great time for me to come back and share some of my amazing discoveries.
The first on my list is the new Laura Mercier Crème Eye Liner. Comes in 6 shades: Conard, cobalt, espresso, indigo, black, and violet. My personal favorite is the cobalt which is a vibrant blue. Super creamy and goes on so smooth you will have this eyeliner on literally all day. I rubbed my hands over it to see if it would come off and it did not budge. I even put water over it and it didn't move a bit! At $22.00 its very affordable and you wont be reapplying it all day so you will have this for a while.
Second on my list is the Laura Mercier Caviar Stick Eye Colour. This too will stay on all day. I tried wiping it off with my hands and it did not budge either. It goes great with the Crème Eye Liner. So many great shades to choose from, 17 to be exact with the "mint snow" being my favorite color.
Third MAC has once again come out with a new and fabulous line called  "Archie's Girls." The entire collection is great but the one thing that stuck out to me was the strawberry malt lip gloss. I am a sucker for any lip gloss, but this one especially is my favorite. Its pinky red in color and has a high shine. Makes your lips look plump and juicy.
Last but not least Clinique has finally come out with new shadows and they are well worth a try. Chubby stick glosses were all the rage last summer and now Clinique has come out with chubby sticks for eyes!!! Comes in 12 shades and they are cream shadows. They range from a very neutral beige called Bountiful Beige which can be worn under the brow or all over the lid to a dark blue called massive midnight. Very easy to apply, great for someone on the go. So many colors you can take your day look to a night look with just one extra color in the crease. At $16.00 you cannot beat that.
