It's not only for your Booty but also your Beauty

I was totally in awe when I came across Lyrics YouTube Channel "JamaicanMakeupArtist".  I must admit it was hard to watch at first due to her strong Jamaican Accent but I made due.  I was researching face primers and a video of hers popped up only to catch me off guard as I tuned in to see what she was about.

Little did I know and was floored when she pulled out a bottle of Phillips Milk of Magnesia and began priming her face with it.  I couldn't believe it at first and I really thought she was fooling around- but as I watched several of her videos thereafter I knew I had to try it and boy does it work at least for women who have combination to oily skin.

The first time I tried it I couldn't help but laugh as I was applying it thinking to myself I had a shitty face mask...LOL (I crack myself up!).  Well anyway check out one of her many makeup tutorials and let me know what you think - and most definitely let me know if you are bold enough to try it. You can check out more of Lyric's videos by viewing her channel at the following link:

Oh yeah be careful not to get it in your mouth - I wouldn't want you to get the runs...LOL!

Cost is No Issue - Wet n Wild Color Icon

I am soo tired right now it's like a half hour past midnight and my eyeballs were closing until I ran across this photo of Wet n Wild - Cost Is No Issue from their Color Icon Collection.  I love this color on my skin tone I think that it is very complementary.

2 Coats plus Top Coat (TC)
Purchased @ CVS Pharmacy for $2.99

The color itself is a bright turquoise blue with lots of glitter.  I wish I had time to go and find alternate pictures of this polish so that I could give you more a true to color glance- but to check it out you can go to a previous post click on the following link:

Faux-Nail Wrap

 So I purchased these Kiss Nail Dress Wraps awhile ago and to be honest I am still a little nervous to use them.  They were on clearance at my Local Walgreen for a $1.99 so I couldn't pass them up.

#56703
Purchased @ Walgreens
On Clearance for $1.99

I recently came across another style but didn't want to buy them because I felt like I could recreate the look with polish and some glitter and wanted to just play around a little bit due to boredom.

#56705
Available @ Walgreens

China Glaze - Jamaican Out

Two (2) coats plus top coat
Purchased @ Sally's Beauty Supply $2.99

I was worried about this color at first thinking that it would be too bright for my skin tone but it's actually a beautiful coral.  However, I was highly disappointed that I waited to my son went to sleep before getting started - only to have major bubbles in my top coat when I woke up this morning...it's so bad that I will be removing it after only one day of wear.

I wanted to do some stamping over this color but it looks like I'll have to try it at another time because these darn bubbles are working my nerves...if it wasn't sooo many it wouldn't be soo bad!  Oh well I guess I'll just have to get over it.

Overall, the application was smooth sailing and went on very smoothly with no streaking or fuss.

It must be a hot color because LOOK it matches my Dr. Pepper...LOL!!!!

KleanColors Haul

So Monday (06-25-12) during my lunch break my two co-workers and I visited a local beauty supply near our job - I was only suppose to go in and check out extensions but as I scanned the counter I came across their KleanColors Display and couldn't help but to pick out these six colors:

From left to right we have the following:

• Pearl Beige #41 - A soft beige with a hint of pink pearl shimmer which also looks like a light bronze depending on how the sun hits it.
• Twinkly Love #38 - A clear base polish with pink, blue, red and yellow heart.
• Starry Blue #33 - A clear base polish with blue hex and micro glitter
• Starry Purple # - A clear base polish with purple hex and micro glitter
• Aurora #29 - A clear base with iridescent micro and hex glitter.  This is a very pretty versatile layering polish.
•  Blue Satin - A blue base bar glitter polish with a dark blue and purple micro glitter.  This polish can be worn by itself and become more opaque with multiple layers.
