Purple Me Up!

Hi loves!
How many of you love the color purple? Have you ever noticed it just makes you happy just seeing the beautiful color?
Well I love purple! Its vibrant, and is a very classy color, purple can almost be combined with any other color and create a Fabulous look and can be used on any shade of skin and still be perfected. I'd like to think it can be considered as the new red or black.

Yesterday I decided to play in makeup and create a look. Could you guess what color I decided to go with? Purple? You guessed it right! Now this shade of purple was a tinge darker than lavender but very very close. I threw some pink in there to spice it up a bit and I think I was very happy with the outcome. Check it out!

To create this look I used one of my May Favorite items: 88 Color Cool Matte Eye-shadow Palette
Eyeshadow Base: LA Colors Jumbo eye pencil: White

And....

Just an added bonus! Purple Nails!!
NYC nail polish(sorry the color faded off of the bottle) but it was purchased at Walmart.

Oh how I just love Purple!

What do you think of this purple look?

Mac Studio Fix Fluid Foundation Review

Hola Beauties,
Today I wanted to share with you all one of my favorite foundations. The Mac Studio Fix Fluid foundation!!

 I wanted to share with you all just how wonderful this stuff is. Now as everyone knows Mac can be a bit pricey and I am not one to spend a heap of money on one particular makeup item, but EVERY girl should own at least one bottle of this gorgeous foundation. This small bottle retails for about $28, purchased from the Mac store, but guess what....that 1 oz bottle is enough to last you for months...Why? Because all it takes is one pump and that's enough to provide coverage for your ENTIRE face!_Can you believe it!? Welp, its true.

When applying to your face to achieve the best application possible you should use a "flat top" or Kabuki brush, such as the one shown below.
I used my flat top foundation brush and the foundation just spreaded so evenly.



This foundation certainly has a huge duty to uphold in regards to providing full coverage, but I must say that it also leaves your face feeling light. Many foundations make your face feel heavy and sticky afterwards.

The product provides long wear coverage as well. I put on makeup before I left the house and did not need to touch up my face at all during the day. How awesome is that!?

PROOF THAT IT STAYS IN PLACE!
my husband is such a sweetheart that he pinched my cheeks and I said "babe you do realize I have on makeup right!" He goes "oops!, sorry I forgot!" So I say "look at your hands to make sure there's no makeup on them" sure enough Wa LA....nothing on his hands at all! I instantly fell in love with this foundation all over again.


Sorry this review is so long but I have to say for the goodness in one small bottle, it's well worth the money. I recommend everyone to own at least one bottle,you will not be disappointed. Just apply with eyeshadow, blush, highlight and contour and go! Its definitely my #1 go to foundation.

 Below is a picture of me using the Mac studio fix fluid as my foundation of the day.
