Review: 3 Concept Eyes Lip Paints in Shade 7 & 8



Today on my blog I would love to share with you two lip paints by 3 Concept Eyes, that I received from BornPrettyStore for review purposes.  These lip paints are the latest edition to the lippie line that BornPrettyStore carries.  I was excited to review these because when I first saw them they reminded me of OCC Lip Tars and Sleek Makeup Pout Paints.  Well in that concept at the least.

Out of the eight shades, I decided to pick #7 and #8 since I wanted something that I would be able to wear both of them at separate times.

Review: MISSHA Complexion Coordinating BB Cream SPF43/PA+++


Hello Lovelies!  How is everyone doing?  I hope you are all having a wonderful summer thus far!  Today I have one of the new MISSHA Signature Complexion Coordinating BB Cream that hit the US market just last week to share with you, which was received for review purposes.  MISSHA Cosmetics is a Korean brand that appeared in the US market back in 2009.  They carry a wide range of beauty products: lipsticks, nail polish, BB cream, blush, etc.

**This product was sent to me from MISSHA US for review purposes.  This is based upon my own experience with the product.

MISSHA-US carries two types of Signature Complexion Coordinating BB Cream SPF43/PA+++:

  • No. 1 Pure Complexion: is a skin brightening white cream that is designed to adjust to a natural tone for a clear and glowing skin.  Which is basically for those who prefer a very sheer coverage for a more enhanced natural skin rather than the cover up type.
  • No. 2 Flawless Complexion:  is a flaw correcting beige cream that is designed for a clear and smooth skin.  This one is for those of us who are looking for some coverage.
The one I will be sharing with you is the No. 2 Flawless Complexion.  Can you believe a CC Cream and BB Cream in one?  Simply awwwhhh-mmaaazzing!


I was attracted by the package so much, that I actually saved it and put it with the rest of the packages that I thought were too cute to throw away.  Am I the only one who does that?  I thought the combo of black and gold was always pretty ever since I was little.  My mom use to have a coffee and end table that was black and gold.  So this packaging instantly reminded me of those days when I was young.

Review: Tribal Dazzling Gold Glitter Nail Polish


Today I would like to show you another glitter polish from the company Tribal Colours that I received from BornPrettyStore for review purposes.  If you have not checked out BornPrettyStore, you are totally missing out with some of their wonderful products that they carry.  It is honestly one of my fave shops online to purchase products for nail art and fashion accessories, among other products.


I love the shapes of the Tribal Colours' nail polish bottles.  I am such a sucker for cute packaging.  It helps, right?

Review: Ardency Inn PUNKER World's Baddest Eyeliner


Oh darlings have you heard of the eyeliner Punker from Ardency Inn?  They hit the shelves at Sephora back in February and you could find them in the featured eyeliner section.  A while ago they were kind enough to send me one for review purposes.  I have been messing around with it to see how well it would last.

Ardency Inn is a new company that is deeply rooted in the downtown music scene over in New York.  They are aiming to put the power of makeup artisty into the hands of every woman.    Later on this year they will be releasing a full line of color cosmetics in Fall.  So keep an eye out on that!

So guess who is the Director of Artistry & Education for Ardency Inn!  James FREAKIN' Vincent!!  He has such creativity!!


PUNKER makes it easy for anyone to take their look from boring to bold with one slash across the lash line.  It literally takes the fear out of applying liquid liner.  Keep it simple and sexy with a cat eye or create dramatic shapes of your own that let everyone know you're not a girl to mess with.  - James Vincent

Review: Star Crushed Minerals' Blushes - Light Primrose, Peachy Sheen, Mauve-o-lous


Today I have some blushes to show you from my gal Edith's shop, Star Crushed Minerals, which was sent to me for review purposes.  She created Star Crushed Minerals based upon her past experience with cosmetics.  She wanted something more natural and healthy instead of having high end cosmetics.  And let me tell you, her products are fabulous and I have not broken into pimples since using them.



The top jar is Light Primrose, and the bottom two (left to right) is Perfectly Peach and Mauve-o-lous.  These are sample sizes which contain 1g of product.  Can you believe that all her samples come in jars AND sifters?!  Honestly love that it comes like that instead of the typical ziploc bags.  As most of you know are a pain at times!  Her full size carries 2.5g of product.

Review: Femme Fatale Cosmetics - Mystic Tome, Ruby Wings, Spearmint Candy, Sun Crystal, Haunt, Incantation, Phantasm, & Duskwing


Today I would like to share with you some eyeshadows and a blush that I received from Femme Fatale Cosmetics for review purposes.  Femme Fatale Cosmetics is an indie company that is based in Australia, and they specialize in mineral cosmetics, and not to mention recently have started to do Indie polishes as well.  Their products are blended by hand which makes their products even more special.  Sophie, the owner, was very kind and helpful when I was making my decision.  Also she is very pretty!


I received samples of seven loose eyeshadows: Mystic Tome, Ruby Wings, Spearmint Candy, Sun Crystal, Haunt, Incantation, and Phantasm; and a blush: Duskwing.  Each sample goes for $1.10AUS and is about 1/8 tsp in a zip lock bag.  And all of the samples you order be it blush, foundation, or eyeshadow will be free shipping.

Review: Missha The Style Lucid Nail Polish Dazzling in #3

Today I have this lovely glitter polish to show you that I received from Cosmetic Love for review purposes.      It is Missha's The Style Lucid Nail Polish Dazzling in Style #3.  Cosmetic Love is a Korean based online shop that sells a bunch of Asian cosmetics!  They carry various products from nail polish to BB creams to eyeliners to lipstick.  Their site even carries skin care products and items for men as well.  Just to list a few big name Asian Brands:  TonyMoly, Skin79, Missha, Etude House, and the list goes on.  Their website is very easy to navigate through.  If you order from them you will receive samples as gifts.  So say you order 1 product you get 2 samples.  You order three items you get two samples, a nose pack, and a mask pack.  They are at random of course, but its a great way into trying new products!


Style #3 of the Style Lucid Nail Polish Dazzling is punched with various glitters.  


It has assorted sizes of hex in black, lime green, yellow, red, white, and so much more.  It has white squares and small round ones as well.  There are assorted red and green bars as well.  

Not just the glitter mixture has a wonderful but there is an added bonus which I will announce later on in this post.

Review: Ooh La Lacquer - Princess Nylah



Today I have a very special nail polish to share with you from my girl's shop, Ooh La Lacquer.  It is called Princess Nylah, and a latest addition to her polish line.  This will be released later on today, along with some other new polishes.


The reason why this gorgeous glitter packed nail polish is a very special one is because Nastassia named it after her little diva god-daughter.  How sweet is that?
