Too Faced Sweethearts Perfect Blush

My apologies but I've been busy with having two jobs. I'll be back to normal and blogging more often hopefully soon.

I've had these blushes for a few months and I've been using them quite frequently. They are so gorgeous! I purchased them a few months back when Ulta was having their 21 days of beauty steals. I got both for $15 each which was a pretty amazing deal especially because they retail for $30 each.

My favorite out of the two that I purchased would have to be Something About Berry. It's the deepest out of the three available shades.


Out of the two that I have Something About Berry would be the more pigmented blush. They both have a shimmery sheen but Something About Berry has less shimmer and more pigmentation. Since there are three shades in this one blush if you wanted to you could pick up just one shade and apply that with a small blush brush.

The top shades is a mauve-y lilac shade that could work both as a blush or highlighter. The middle shade is a pinky champagne shade that would work perfectly for a hightlight. The bottom shade is a dark shade of pink and is very wearable as a blush on its own. All three shades swirled together makes a beautiful shade also.


The top and bottom shades seem to be the same shade and the middle shade is a light pinky shade. When swirled together the end result is a very shimmery golden peach with the slightest hint of pink.Very gorgeous but just a little too shimmery for my liking.

New Beauty Test Tube - March/April 2014

I am finally back to blogging! I've been a little busy with my new job and settling down so forgive me. But....because I got a new job I decided it was time for a new subscription box so I signed up for the New Beauty Test Tube. If you don't already know what it is CLICK HERE to read their FAQ.

March/April 2014 was my first box with New Beauty Test Tube and I was pretty excited for it. New Beauty Test Tube sends out their subscriptions every other month for $29.95. If you can't justify spending that much on a bi-monthly subscription wait until you see the contents of my tube. You will be blown away.

I opened the Beauty To Go bag first just because it was already ripped.

First thing I pulled out was the Pevonia Botanica item. It says on the bottle that it is an "age-defying marine collagen cream." I honestly don't use anything like this so maybe I'll pass this on to my mom.

 Next is a baby sample perfume by Memoire Liquide in 'Vacances Liquide'.
 The foil packet is a sample of the Rodial Stemcell super-food facial oil.
The last sample is philosophy's full of promise restoring cream. I found this floating around in the box since the bag it was in ripped.
 The first item that's actually a part of the new beauty test tube is the It Cosmetics Heavenly Luxe Powder Brush. This alone retails for $48.
Now onto the actual contents of the New Beauty Test Tube
CAN YOU SEE ALL THE GOODIES?!
Obviously the first item I pulled out had to be the It's a 10 Miracle Leave-In Lite.
This is also a full size and it is a Mally liquid lipstick. This alone retails for $29.
It took me a little to pull this out but its a small size of Tarte's Pure Maracuja Oil.
A mini GlamGlow sample.
Sample of Grande Mascara
 Full size Orly Polish in Haute Red. Retails for $8

Sample of Lumene Pure Radiance Night Cream.
The last item I pulled out is the Bioxidea Miracle 48.

This tube retails well over $29.95 so I think my money was well spent.

February 2014 Ipsy

Hey guys! I know I'm late on posting and I know I haven't posted in a while. We recently moved. Yes, I know again. But hopefully this time it will a while before we move again. I'll try posting on schedule again but don't get angry if I miss every now and then.

This months theme for Ipsy was The Look of Love. Think pink! At least that was my initial thought when I opened the bubble mailer.
