Fruity Summer Lips

Hey guys,
     Have you ever noticed how much attention we pay toward our eye makeup but never too much toward our lips? Its either the nude peach or the bold red. Well today i decided to share with you my summer lip combo. Now I am the kinda person who doesn't care whether nudes are in or bolds. I just like to do what my heart says :)

Bare Lips.

Now this is what I call a Luscious Lip!

So I use four colors for this lip combo.

Red Earth Disco Angel Lipgloss in Ruby Jewel,
Luscious Lip Couture in En Vouge,
Art Deco Hydra Lip Booster in No.55 and
Flormar True Color Holographic Glossy Splash Lipgloss in No.03 

How to:

1. First I applied Luscious Lip Couture in En Vouge as a base.
2. Then i topped it off with Art Deco Hydra Lip Booster in No.55
3. To the center of my lips i applied Flormar True Color Holographic Glossy Splash Lipgloss in No.03 for a pouty lip.
4. Last but not the least I applied Red Earth Disco Angel Lipgloss in Ruby Jewel to the outer corner to add to the pout effect.

M.A.C Viva Glam.IV Review + Swatch

Hey Guys,

         I got myself this lipstick some while back and decided to review it. Its by M.A.C from their Viva Glam collection. I am a huge fan of M.A.C lipsticks especially their smell which is YUMMY! However, I am not a huge fan of this lipstick in particular.

         The Viva Glam.IV is a dark burgundy red colored lipstick and to top it off its a frost so its not really all that wearable.

I am more of a neutral lips kinda person so i did not really like this lipstick. The frostiness of this lipstick just makes it look like i dabbed a whole lot of silver eye shadow on my lips and that just brings too much attention towards the lips.

The only way i can make this lipstick work is when I apply a clear gloss on top of it. Otherwise its just too UGH.

                                        

The texture of the lipstick though is what i like best about it. Its not too moisturizing so it does not bleed off nor is it too dry so that it tugs on my lips while applying.

    

I hope you guys liked this review.

Beauty For Less:Top 5 Budget Beauty Tips

Hey Guys,
I am sorry i have been M.I.A for some time now but i have just been so busy reading the book "My Feudal Lord'. I will maybe do a separate book review on that book because it is just worth it. Okay so lets get back to what this blog post was actually about. As you can see from the title above this is going to be a beauty tips post and many people have been requesting me to do a beauty for less post so here it is.

TOP 5 BUDGET BEAUTY TIPS:

1.Dust blusher over your eyelids as an instant subtle eyeshadow.

2. Stand a dried-up mascara in a glass of warm water to revive it.

3. Turn lipstick into lip gloss with a coat of lip balm after applying color.

4.A drop of olive oil rubbed nightly into your nails will help them grow long and strong, and it is cheaper as compared to manicure oils.

5. Swap commercial face scrubs for a handful of oatmeal massaged directly on to your skin - smooth soft skin naturally.

Hope you guys liked this post.
