The most important thing in my make up bag is my mascara. I will leave the house with very little make up….but never without my dior show. I was always trying a new mascara ..never buying the same one twice until this beauty was found. I used to wear individual lashes for a special nights out but with this mascara its not needed. I have converted many of my friends and have only had one complaint. If you have sensitive eyes I was told it flakes. I dont touch my eyes so I havent noticed this problem. oh and my only other whine is a have to buy a new one every 6 weeks….but worth every penny. buy it…try it…thank me later :) you will have flirt worthy lashes.

 
( just get the dior show…with the really fat brush. I tried the dior show black out but I didnt like it as much, my lashes were not as full.)
tip: Im sure you have heard that you need to wiggle the brush at the root of your lashes but its a rule.. not a tip with this mascara. The brush is sooo fat that if you dont do the wiggle it will look clumpy. also its dry really fast and make sure you do your second coat before its dry.

OK now I love all things about being a girl!  I do wanna clarify that yes Im a girly girl BUT Im not always fancy. if you hire me this is what you get ..sometimes worse..eek! oh and you cant see my ever so cute polka dot rain boots!
I would feel silly if my readers saw me in person like this and you all thought…”what!!!! she does beauty babble” haha. this is me before my shoot. jeans-boots-hoodie and a pony tail!

not so fancy huh

pictures from my lovely apple photo booth haha

 I thought I would share another make-up favorite. Im getting a eye make post together but its a big one so I need more time.
I have 3 favorite blushes! Most my favs are for my skin and coloring. my face and eye shape ect. I like warmth…gold and peaches more than pinks. my number one favorite blush is NARS – orgasm, its the perfect golden pink. with blush I keep it above my bronzer and on the top of my cheekbone! NOT all over. you dont wanna add blush about a inch within your nose. or two fingers length together

I layer the nars and this for a little extra highlight
I get peach satin and put it on before the nars blush. anytime you layer a powder over a cream your makeup last longer. 

last is a gel stain blush! this gives a more bold look and last the longest! I also use mine as a lip stain but I dont use this often.

most anything I post about you can find at nordstrom or sephora ! next one will be a fun one! all about the eyes

so I had a request that I thought hummmm brillant! Helen from C.A this is for you!

“I’m a total lurker. I live in CA, but wish I could get pictures done by you! I would say classy. Beautiful, unique, glam. Also, I think along with your song choices you should put up makeup tips (or favorites), shopping tips, diet, workout regime. You are so beautiful, you need to share your secrets :)

ps thank you so much for everyones kinda words in the what would you label me post! Im totally flattered and Im glad my hard works paying off….still got lots more to learn though.

A new addition to my blog will be my beauty babble. Now just so we are all clear Im not glam all the time. Im sure people have been shocked to see me on my blog and then at a shoot. Im laying in dirt grease and Im working so….unless its a wedding Im a t shirt ( a cute t shirt) and jeans kinda working girl. But I love to get dolled up and I have a impressive make up and heels collection. she also requested diet tips which made me laugh! Im always trying to lose ten pounds…..maybe one day it will final just disappear but I guess I can keep you updated on my efforts. but for today its about the lips

I have tried almost every kind of lipgloss. its one of those things for me I get if Im having a bad day.
my rules for gloss….I like nude lips sometimes pink. why nude? well I go heavy on my eyes I dont like it to look like my lips and eyes in in a fist fight for attention :) if I do color I do a lipstick …but thats a different post. another thing Im really picky about is the heavyness /stickyness and the shine.
now remember this is MY opinion! For shine victoria secret has some super shiny lipgloss but I hate it. its heavy and beyound sticky! heaven forbid its a windy day cause your hair will not leave your lips. also I recently bought Chanels new gloss and I was totally bummed! i felt like I had mary kate and Ashley’s  line from walmart on my lips.  oh well…..right 

here are my current favs that I will have with me in every purse
my number one fav. I have used since it came out. its clear but super shiny plus the only lip plumper that really works. You have to be consistent with it to work but it does work, I have tried every lip plumper lip I think..haha but this one has stuck with me

next is my favorite color gloss but it does have a fault. dior has some of my favorite beauty must haves. I love this gloss BUT it doesnt last long. there is a upside though. once it fades off there is a layer of mini shimmer that sticks to your lips long after the gloss is gone. so you alteast still have a little something something. the other reason I love it is because its so light! plus it has gold shimmer in the pink and you all know thats a must!

last is a new addition and I love it. I dont get this color I get AMBER. Its golden and has a tingle to it. not a burning but a cooling which I love those kinds. the color and lightness all get A+. But if your gonna be smooching watch out cause that cold tingle seems to bother the males :)

 

so thats is it for my first beauty babble session! hope you enjoyed :) feel free to throw in some questions that you would like to see if I have anwsers for……I might do a post about it 

xoxo B
