LA Splash Cosmetics

I finally got the awesome opportunity to try LA Splash. I became more acquainted with their brand when I used them for a shoot. O...M....G I loved working with those glitters. When I was sent the products, I had intended on using them on my next shoot and using those images as my example but the shoot was rescheduled so I decided to take a chance and use them for myself. I was nervous at first because of my kerataconus but I wore everything I described in the video for 6 hrs around the house WITH NO PROBLEM! I may have had one piece of glitter fall on a lash and that didn't even irritate my eye...the light just made it glare and it bugged me lol. I would still recommend their base though because it really helped the product to adhere to my eye. Beware: blending does become a bit of a chore with this base because it's almost TOO affective. The liner was phenomenal and the lipgloss left the glitter on my lips but it didn't travel. Amazing, right?! When I was ready to wash the face for bed, I used my face wipes and everything came off clean! Nothing svelted (LOL) into my eye or anything. These products are very good and very kind to the sens-i-eye person like myself.. I highly recommend these products but please do be careful because glitters should always be used with caution around the eye area.

A LOOK FOR WORK SERIES

For those who may not know, I have a series on youtube for professional women of color. All those colorful crazy lashed out looks are nice but let's be real, they are not all work appropiate. Most professional environments are fairly conservative and expect your appearance to reflect their culture. That's why I put this series together. I may hopefully get to do more fun looks but I find that I can kill two birds with one stone in doing my makeup for work and recording it. WIN WIN for the both of us. Check out my most recent video and let me know what you think!

I know lusting is a sin but.....

I have several products that I currently lusting after. I think it has a lot to do with the fact they are not readily available to me in my local Sephora, Ulta, or any other beauty related retailer for that matter. I am in the process of building my kit and the more I see Temptalia, MakeupbyRenRen, Enkore, Makeup Geek, and other tubers/makeup artists turned blogger/makeup addicts. Damn you all. Just kidding...a little bit. Really though. I need these items in my life:

- Inglot eyeshadow pallette (i have to fly to the hometown to stock up...I wish you could order online)
- Urban Decay Naked pallette
- Hakuhodo Brushes
- the ENTIRE MUFE eyeliner set (these things save my life daily)

too much more to type about but TRUST! The wishlist is something serious.

I think that Inglot is my number one lustee at the moment since it is so DAMN inaccessible. **dr evil** oh, Inglot, I shall have my conquest over thee"

**clears throat** is this thing on....

So, it's no secret that 1. I haven't been on here in a minute. 2. I don't think anyone is reading. **kanye shrug**. Maybe, I'm talking (or reading) to myself but I'm going to get this blog thing together. I have loads of products I to talk about, I just need to take the time to talk about it. So STAY TUNED!

1.) Victoria's Secret Lippies
2.) Rock and Republic products
3.) Stila 24/7 eyeliner
4.) MAC 130 brush

....and many many more!

Muchos besos!

Here's the Thing About... Urban Decay Liquid Liner

So I recently purchased the Urban Decay Liquid Liners in Shattered and Radium. Let me tell you...I LOVE these colors. They give you the punch of color that you may have always dreamed of. Out of the colors available, these two stood out the most for me. Not just because blue and green are my favorite colors but because they were loud but, for some reason, subdued. They seemed like colors that, with a little creativity, I could wear to work (provided I focus on a neutral eye and layer with a black liner for a peek-a-boo color effect). I played with them SO MANY TIMES walking in and out of Ulta but always ended up with the Urban Decay 24/7 pencil formula since they are more contact wearer friendly (and yes, I will blog on that in the near future). After letting them dry on my hand while parousing through the OPI section, I found they were really everything they were marketed to be. Budgeproof, smudgeproof with uncomprising color payoff. Urban Decay has yet to disappoint me when it comes to my sensitive eyes. If there was a downfall, however, it would be the time it takes to dry. It can take a little while (not excessively long mind you) but I worry about the seeping factor since I am a "hard" contact wearer and stuff getting in my eye is more painful than a toothache. *cringe* To put it simply, I give this product 9/10 since it CAN seep and takes a little longer to dry than I am used to. Take a look at the pics. Muchos besos queridas!!
