Nails of the Day: Silver Accent

NOTD: Skin Food "Vita #V1407" and Fergi Nail Collection for Wet and Wild in "Going Platinum"

I have been in love with accent nails lately. Every time I change my nails I always end up doing the accent. This is great for when I just can't decide on which color I want. This way I can have both!

Fergie Wet and Wild Haul

Hi everyone! During a quick run to Walgreen I saw that there is a new Wet and Wild collection collaboration with Fergie! This collection has array of items, multiple eye shadow quads, lipsticks eyeliners and eye products. Only these items really caught my attention. I picked up the eye shadow primer and two nail polishes. The primer was about $5 and the nail polish is 3.49.

The nail polishes I picked up are Kaleidoscope ( clear polish with silver blue and turquoise glitter) and Glamorous ( clear polish with small and large gold glitter) Overall these two were a total miss. The glitter is so diluted in the clear polish, it only deposits five glitters on the nail and its impossible to layer because the formula of the polish takes forever to dry. Even used as a glitter topcoat it doesn't work for me at all. 

The eye primer tho, called For My Primas is amazing for five dollars I'd say it rivals UDPP (Urban Decay Primer Potion) I used it on a night out and my eye shadows stayed put! I was amazed that this held up all night with out creasing or fading. Excellent purchase. 

Out of this haul I only liked one item, not good ether that means I have terrible luck picking out stuff or  I'm a big sucker for glitter polishes. :P

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Lets make 2013 a year to remember!

PS: I ended up returning the nail polishes, they were not worth my time or money. They would have just sat at the bottom of my nail polish collection untouched. 

Review: Wet and Wild eyeshadow Trio: Walking on Eggshells

Hello there my eyeshadow junkies! Today I have a review on the Wet and Wild eyeshadow Trio: Walking on Eggshells. I first heard about this specific trio from Beauty Broadcast or Emilynoel83 on YouTube. She raved about this and iv been wanting to try Wet and Wild Shadows for a while and this was the perfect trio for me to tryout. 

I got this on my trip to Ride Aid and this was only 2.99 so cheap. What I love about the Wet and Wild brand is that there products are very inexpensive but the product quality they sell is unbelievably high quality. Iv tried their eyeliners and brow kit and everything Iv tried from this line I have loved.

Walking on Egg Shells is a very beautiful trio. This is a brown and pink combo with a white eyebrow shade. All three colors are shimmery and very pigmented. These shadows are smooth and creamy. They apply to the lid so easy. These can be a little powdery but there are ways to lessen fall out onto the face. The only color I would have to worry about is the crease color.

The browbone color is a shimmery white color. This is really pretty as an inner corner highlight, lid color and if used lightly a browbone color.

Crease color is a petty bronzy brown. Its a medium brown color. I like this color very much I really like this all over my lids and that's it! This is a one color look for me and I love it.
Lid color is a light champagne pink color.  Its a light color that is really pretty. I like to uses it as a blending color over the crease color. I'm not a big fan of pink on the lids and then the crease color, for my eye shape that doesn't work for me. What works better is laying down the crease color as a lid color and then using the lid color as my blending/crease color. The pink helps to warm up the brown and add a pink tinge the eyes and make them look "romantic"

Overall I really like this trio. The colors work great together and make for an array of looks. The pigmentation of the shadows is great and Wet and Wild have really stepped up their game and are making amazing products and I am most definitely going to try more of there stuff.

Review: Wet and Wild Ultimate Brow Kit

There is one thing that I can not live without in the make up world  is my eye brows. I have been blessed with very light eyebrow hairs. They are so faint and light that they can disappear in the background. An eye brows purpose is to frame and define the face. It helps to add personality and shape to the face. Without eyebrows the face is incomplete. 

For a while I have been looking for a new eyebrow powder and I was shopping a Ride Aid and I saw the Wet and Wild stand and they had their brow kits. I read that this was a really good brow kit so I was excited to try it. and on the plus side it was only 2.99 with a buy one get one 50% off I got it for 1.99.
I like how this is packaged. Its really small and compact. It has two powders and a wax on one side and a place for a brush and tweezers on top of a mirror. The design is nicely thought out and I think works great.

This kit comes with a small brush and a small pair of tweeters. The brush that comes with this kit is awesome. I find it to be a perfect eyebrow brush, its soft and pliable, it moves when I push down but its not thin or floppy. It applies the powder very nicely. The tweezers that come in this kit are pretty decent as well. They are small but are able to grab stray hairs. These two things make this kit perfect for travel. If you some how forget to bring tweezers and a brow brush the ones provided in the kit will do a fantastic job. 

These are the colors for the Ash Brown kit. I comes with a cool tone dark brown and a neutral medium brown along with a wax to set the brows.  The reason why I really enjoy this kit is because the main color I use is the cool tone brown. I found for my eyebrows and hair color the powder color has to be cool and on the gray side. This gives me the most natural brows. The powers it self are really pigmented one tap into the powder with the brush provide is plenty to fill in my whole brow. The pigmentation in this kit is pretty phenomenal. For the price range it is almost too good. The light brown is also acts great in the front of my brows but most of the time I just dust the front of my brows with whatever is left on the brush after I finish my tail.

 As for the wax I don's really use wax or anything rather to set my brows, seeing as I have almost none so that is just extra. It does feel like a dryer wax, its not wet or sticky so it should be okay to use as a brow setter. 

Here I used the kit and I loved how my brows came out. I think this is an amazing find and something I will most defiantly repurchase this.

Happy Holidays! Next post should be Favorite Fall boots!
