MUSE Fall 2013 Preview

April 11, 2013

MUSE Apparel Spring/Summer 2013 Dresses

Give me a quick moment to tell you about my friend Cindy. Firstly, she knows EVERYONE. There is no 6 degrees of separation with Cindy. If you know someone, she knows them too. This might be a slight exaggeration, but I assure you it’s only slight. Secondly, she’s an amazing photographer! In fact, one of her photos of Central Park recently won an award. Thirdly, Cindy is always DEAD HONEST. She’s not one to say anything but exactly how she feels. Perfect qualities for a reviewer, don’t you think? So when Muse Apparel extended an invitation for me to peruse their upcoming lines for Fall 2013, I sent Cindy in to be my eyes and ears, and she even received a beautiful new dress for her time. Here’s Cindy’s take on the latest from Muse, for your reading pleasure! [Read more...]

Mushroom Swatch, Urban Decay Eyeshadow

November 30, 2012

Mushroom Swatch, Urban Decay Eyeshadow

Everyone has a “go-to” shade of taupe. Urban Decay’s Mushroom is a sooty brown that is an excellent selection if you’re looking to restock on taupe.

Don’t forget that the Urban Decay shadow formula is wet/dry! The above swatch was done dry, with no primer. Imagine how amped Mushroom can look with primer and a touch of water!

Retail price is $18.

Fierce Blue!

October 24, 2012

Prestige Total Intensity Eyeliner in Fierce Blue

Prestige Cosmetics Total Intensity Eyeliner is an excellent budget selection. The Total Intensity formula has a slick, emollient feeling while applying. It’s very blendable, and then dries quickly leaving behind intense, vivid color. The shade featured in this post is Fierce Blue, an electric sapphire that is a stunner! Blues like Fierce Blue are my favorite eye pencil shades for Fall 2012. They refuse to be ignored. [Read more...]

Fall Is A Great Time For ChapStick!

October 23, 2012

Raspberry Crème, Chapstick

It has been said that here in Seattle, we have only two seasons: rain and construction.

When the season switches to rain, it’s quite sudden. The forecast switches from sun, sun, sun to rain, rain, rain overnight. The change in the condition of my lips and hands follow the weather trend. They go from normal, normal, normal to dry, dry, dry overnight.

I tote around lip balm all year round, but I really apply it most obsessively in the Fall. So it was perfect timing when I received two new releases from ChapStick, to help protect my pucker!

The first–and my favorite–is the new flavor in the Moisturizer line: Raspberry Crème. This creamy, fruity scented balm is so emollient, and feels immediately soothing on dry lips. I love that there’s a built in SPF 15! I usually neglect to wear sun protection on my lips in the Fall. [Read more...]

Rimmel London, Waterproof Gel Eyeliner in Black and Aubergine

October 22, 2012

Black and Aubergine, Rimmel London Waterproof Gel Eyeliner

It has been said that old habits die hard. This beauty blogger is an eye pencil lover, and hasn’t really used liquid liner regularly–ever. I love the precision that liquid liners deliver, but using them has never really become habitual for me. Sampling these Waterproof Gel Eyeliners by Rimmel London tempted me to change my routine!

Waterproof Gel Eyeliner, Rimmel London

Firstly, the packaging is so practical. An awesome little liner brush is tucked right inside of the cap!

Aubergine and Black, Rimmel London Waterproof Gel Eyeliner

But here’s the coup… look at that shiny, rich color! The black shade actually looks like wet tar, doesn’t it? I’ve never seen an eye pencil deliver color quite like this! I’m also a fan of the rich Amethyst shade Aubergine. This waterproof formula sets fast, and is then budge-proof!

Retail price is a scant $4.99,
