    Great Makeup App!


    So i found this App for my iPhone that lets you create many makeup looks on a face chart. The cool thing about it is that you get to choose makeup from MAC and Makeup Forever, they have all their shades in lipstick, eyeshadow, blush, and foundation.
    you can let your imagination run wild and create many looks. At first i did find it hard to use and it kinda is until you get used to it so don't give up and keep trying. i love it because i can create many looks that i can later re-create on my face. Experimenting on this app definitely gives me ideas and i get to go all out and be super creative which i love! This app is free but they do offer the glamzy pro for $2.99 that offers more advantages.

    Ive done so many makeup looks its crazy but if i show all of them it would be a long post so here's just a few that i created.
    I really took my time on these and to be honest my finger hurt after doing them lol cause i was on it all day..that's how addicting it is so hopefully you enjoy it as much as i do


    you can get this App on the ipod touch, ipad, and android as well as other phones so to check it out go to

    if you do download it then i hope you have fun cause theres tons of makeup possibilities!

    MAC VIVA GLAM GAGA 2

    xxxxx
    Today i went out to try out the nude gaga lipstick which im glad came out because im not a big fan of pink lipstick. Then i saw the lipgloss and it looked better than the lipstick so i tried both of them together and i thought it looked really nice together and then the lady at the MAC counter asked me if i wanted to try it with lipliner. I tried it with stripdown lipliner and it looked great! they were selling a little package that included the lipstick, lipgloss, and the liner. so i bought it

    Price: $42 (for all 3) at my local MAC counter
    Lipstick $14.50
    Lipgloss:$14.50
    Lipliner:13.00

    Maccosmetics.com
    Lipstick: $14.50
    Lipgloss:$14.50
    Lipliner:$13.00





    The wrapped package looked like this and it looked cute so it made me want to buy it. I really like the lipstick and the lipgloss together with the lipliner but lipliner is not necessary. I will say that i wouldn't wear the lipstick alone because it accentuates any dryness of flakyness of your lips. So i recommend exfoliating your lips or applying lip balm prior to use. the lip gloss is gorgeous it's very opaque and can be worn alone. If you are going to wear it on top of the lipstick i recommend u dab it on because if applied too much it looks tacky.
    The lipstick is a warm beige neutral color with a bit of pink sheen. It is described by MAC as: light neutral beige (with a micro fine shimmer). The lipstick is an amplified formula which is very creamy and pigmented.
    The Lipgloss is very opaque it can be worn alone and it will give u a nude lip. The lipgloss is more beige than the lipstick and it has no pink in it. It is described by mac as a "Light sandy neutral". you can purchase it alone without the lipstick and it still looks amazing.



    This is a swatch of stripdown lipliner. It's not part of viva glam gaga but it is part of the permanent collection so it can be purchased anytime. The lipliner is described by mac as a "Creamy Brown-Beige"
    Price: My local MAC counter $13.00
    Maccosmetics.com $15.50
    the lipliner is not to dark but it's perfect for those who dont like too much lipliner. it's very warm on your lips and it works great with any lipstick or with any gloss.

    Product review: MAC Moisturelush Cream

    So ive been wanting to try out this cream for a while.  I was first introduced to it a year ago in a MAC seminar and i loved the feel of it on my skin. I wanted to buy it, but I thought it was too expensive and i said, "well i'll get it later" but a year passed by and i never did lol. Now ive been using a lot of facial cleansers that dry out my skin. i have combination skin but i also have some very dry spots on my face such as my nose. I try to look for a cheaper alternative but i had no idea which other moisturizer to try, anyways i'll get to the point..
    The product:




    Price: $32.00


    where to purchase: www.maccosmetics.com

    What MAC says: "A richly hydrating face cream that helps moisturize and protect facial skin. Provides instant, long-lasting moisture. Leaves skin soft while lush formula helps balance skin’s natural barrier and alleviate dry skin. Silky to apply, glides on easily. Helps create an even surface for a smooth, more perfect makeup application"

    Size: 50 ml / 1.7 oz

    The size might be too small for some people but i thin its ok because u only need a little bit of product for the whole face. all u have to do is just slightly dab ur finger about 2 or 3 times and then dab it back on your face and distribute. you dont even have to scoop out the product because you do not need that much.

    Review: 

    At night when i washed my face with my daily cleanser it felt dry once again but afterwards when i applied the moisturelush cream it felt a bit heavy at first but when i was done applying it it felt like heaven on my skin. my skin felt so soft and its been a few hours and my skin is still soft. i know this because my nose is so dry it peels a lot but with the cream it is really soft and the peeling went away. i also applied it before my makeup and my foundation went on a lot smoother so thats a plus. To me this product is an A+
    I was scared to buy this at first because ive also heard some bad reviews on it but i took the risk because ive learned that skin products work different on people because everyone has different skin therefore everyone reacts differently to different products. I have combination skin and i am not prone to acne and this product works wonders for me. so i am only giving a review but not a recommendation because im not sure that it will work the same for you as it did for me.
