Color Spectrum Series: Yellow Edition!


The yellows! Don't know what the Color Spectrum Series is? Click here!

Yellows are a bit hard for me to incorporate into my makeup. I have a lot of yellow into my skin and sometimes it can look old. I've found some products that work well with my skin tone without look too odd on me.

Quick Morning Face Routine!


Finals have started for me and I don't have that much time in the morning to get ready. I've been staying up later and I'm always rushing in the morning so that I can squeeze in some extra studying time. I've been mostly using these products to help me look presentable.

Orange/Tangerine was such a big trend last year, but I still see it everywhere, especially now during spring. I love incorporating this color into my look and am constantly on the lookout for new orange products.

Review & Swatches: Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow in Bronze Have More Fun


Benefit Cosmetics's Creaseless Cream Shadow in Bronze Have More Fun contains 0.16 oz of product and retails for $20. It is described as an "antique bronze." When worn on the lids, it is a golden bronze with a slight gold shimmer. It can be used as a liner, too.

The consistency is thin and so you can layer it on to be opaque or just a hint of color. This product glides on like a dream. I like to use a thin layer as a base when I want to add more colors. As a base, this is great for other neutral colors. I love pairing this with Urban Decay's Eyeshadow in Smog. They're very close in color, but Smog is more golden. For those days when I need to do my makeup quickly, I just swipe on 2-3 layers and I'm good to go. The amount of my product on my finger shown below in the pictures is enough to cover by eyelids.

FOTD - May 31, 2013



**I know that I'm not posting this on the same day that I actually wore this look, but I'm mass editing a bunch of pictures and forgot about these. Sorry! I 

Face - Urban Decay Naked Skin Foundation in 6.0. bareMinerals Mineral Viel.

Eyes - Benefit's Creaseless Cream Shadow in Bronze Have More Fun all over the lid and lower lashline (review here). Rimmel London Scandal Eyes Waterproof Kohl Liner in Nude + Urban Decay Half Baked eyeshadow in the inner corner. CoverGirl LashBlast Waterproof Mascara in Very Black + Lancôme's Cils Booster XL Super Enhancing Mascara Base (review here). 

Lips - Stila Long Wear Lip Liner in Passionate all over the lips. MAC Viva Glam I on top (review here).

I started wearing glasses recently and I wanted to show off my lips because the glasses hid most of my eyes. I put a gold-y color in the inner corner to make sure my eyes looked bright too. It's been really hot recently and I've been wearing less makeup. I also didn't want to sweat and half makeup + sweat on my glasses, so I didn't put that much concealer around my eyes/nose area. What have you guys been wearing lately?

Red lips are my absolute favorite. The color red itself is also one of my favorite colors. It was very hard for me to narrow down what I loved from this color.
