Blog Poll: Do You Wear Full Face Makeup To Work?


Hi Beauties!

I want to hear from you!

Do You Wear Full Face Makeup To Work?


For me, I wear my face every day. I don't feel like myself if I don't. On Late days, I forgo the eyeshadow and keep it basic with some Mascara on the eyes.

I received my Red Cherry lashes today. I'm so excited to pick my favorites from this haul.

I LOVE the MAC #7 Lashes more than any other lashes I've ever used but they get mighty expensive. Here's a great alternative for those who use lashes very frequently.

MAC Style Black Collection (Launch Sept. 24, 2009)


Hi Beauties!

I hope many of you are as excited as I am about the new MAC Style Black Collection which is set to Launch in the U.S. on September 24th.

I was able to get a sneak peak at the collection today at my MAC store and I have to admit I left really excited!

The Grease Paint Stick was to die for! It can be worn as an eyeliner, an eyeshadow base or alone for a smokey look. I layered 1 of the Mineralized eyeshadows on top of it and it was AMAZING!


I am also very excited about the infamous Volcanic Ash Exfoliator. Ever since this product was released years ago as limited edition it has received nothing less than Holy Grails! I will be getting mine for sure!

The nailpolishes were all great looking. I love the look of the black on really short manicured nails. CHIC!

The lipsticks in black are uber-chic! You really need to be confident with yourself to wear the black lips out. If you are a little more modest, the black lipsticks could be a great way for you to darken your other lipsticks by mixing with a brush. The Mattene lipstick in the wine color made my heart skip a beat. Simply Gorgeous!

This collection is very edgy and it is well worth a look.

FOTD: Rihanna's Red Lips

Hi Beauties!

I hope you all had a wonderful Labor Day weekend and best of luck to those returning to school.

Today's FOTD is inspired by Rihanna, who I absolutely adore!
I admire how on any given day she could be wearing knee high boots with a leather jacket and the following day she is super-duper glam on the red carpet. And she looks great either way!

Anyway, here it is! It's very simple but I love what RED lips do to my mood.
Lips:
Givenchy Rouge Cancan Lipstick

Eyes:
MUFE #128 Neutral Eyeshadow
L'Oreal Lineur Intense Liquid Liner in Black
L'Oreal Carbon Black Mascara

Cheeks:
Illamasqua Blusher in Create

Face:
Smashbox Photofinish Primer
Make Up Forever Mat Velvet foundation
Ben Nye Neutral Set
Cinema Secrets Concealer

Hope you like!

XOXO,
Awilda
