I’ve been dying to get some gel nails for awhile now.  I get them every 3-4 years or so and keep them for about a year.  I’ve also been wanting to try out the whole “stiletto nail” thing.  I feel like they are super feminine, lengthen your fingers and are edgy all at the same time.  Lord knows I need all the help I can get with my 11 year old boy hands.  My manicurist hadn’t really heard of the whole...

This look is actually a variation of a look I did for the holidays that you guys seemed to love a lot.  I will be doing a tutorial for this look in the near future.  It’s actually a pretty simple look when you break it down.  Glamour Doll Eyes Chocoholic as you guys may or may not know is officially my favorite brown.  I adore chocolates paired with turquoise so MAC Reflects Turquatic seemed like a perfect...

So I picked up Wet n Wild Dollhouse Pink awhile ago and I thought it was a little too light and bright for me.  Then again I was wearing virtually no makeup when I swatched it so I knew I wanted to try it out again.  It reminded me of something Nicki Minaj would wear so I put it in the back of my mind to do a Nicki inspired look.  Now I’m not what you would call a fan of her makeup sometimes so instead of duping a look I just did...

Klout.  I’ve posted about Klout before.  I can’t say enough about what an amazing company they are.  It’s an honor to watch them grow from when they first started and blossom into what they are today.   Klout is a San Francisco company that basically measures your social influence and helps you leverage your influence.   I’ve received many awesome perks in the past but this trip to Seattle was definitely by...

One of my best friends was diagnosed with Breast Cancer about 2 months ago.  Today at 2pm she is scheduled to have a double mastectomy removing most of the cancerous tissue.  She will still have to endure chemo treatments and all the side effects that that presents after she has healed up from surgery.  She is truly one of the sweetest people I know….  She is healthy, vibrant, positive and 34 years young.  I decided to color my...

I debated on even posting this look from last night.  I really hate using pictures that weren’t taken in natural light but I’m sure you guys will forgive me.  I had my mind made up that I was going to use Evil Shades Fearless lipstick last night.  It is a neon, hot pink and so I kept my smokey eye pretty simple once again.  I used Concrete Minerals Kinky on my lower lashline to add just a little bit of flair to the...

I don’t always blog when I pick up new items.  Sometimes I feel like it’s unnecessary but this time I definitely wanted to share some items with you guys!     If you guys have followed me for awhile, you know that I tend to stay away from overly hyped up items that are allover the blogosphere.   I was in CVS for no good reason and saw the Maybelline Baby Lips in Peppermint and Pink Punch.  I thought I would just...
