Dinner Goodbye, Limecrime Look #3

So my uncle moved to Turkey this Saturday. We had a goodbye dinner for him at a cute but tight Italian restaurant called Sabatino's on Irving Park The food was quite the delight, for the prices we paid. I decided to dress up, but not overboard. I work skinny jeans with some black heels and a black tank with a white lace top and a white blazer. I made quite the impression on my relatives. They also loved my make up! In this look I used Limecrime's new color "Coquette", which is a very nudy color. I'm usually not a huge fan of nude, but this one may be one of my favorite lipsticks now!

FINAL LOOK:


I attempted to get a close up of my eye and Lip but things didn't work out, due to still not having great lighting! SORRRY!!! If you have any questions just ask!

Limecrime look #2

Okay guys, So this time I took a risk. This is the color that had got me to purchase Limecrime in the first. Yes it is a little out there, and yes you can't wear it everywhere, but the color is so pretty. I could not resist. I decided to wear this to work, because we are suppose to wear all black. I usually like to spice up my look with accessories, but today I went beyond. With this Limecrime lipstick in the color "Mint To Be". I LOVE IT!

Seriously, how is this not "mint to be"


To balance out the look I did a nice light smokey eye. Close up time!


xoxoxo


PS FINALLY GOT BETTER LIGHTING! Do you guys like it??

Limecrime look #1

Yup here it is my first Limecrime inspired look. The lighting in my house is horrible, so sorry if these are not to great. I'm working on a new set you for taking pictures and filming. So I promise soon!!!! Today I decided to go for the color "Retrofuturist", this is the bright red in the collection. I chose this color because I wore a very unique bright colorful dress by Marc Jacobs today and decided my makeup should be a little more classic. I did a clean cut dark smokey eye, instead of my usual colorful lids. I think it went well together with the red lips. NOTE: I did wear a little bit of lip gloss over the lipstick to give it shine and make it stay on longer. I used Femme Fatale '53 Chevy from the Luna Twilight line, it was perfection!

PERFECT LIPS!


PERFECT EYES!



EYES WITH MY LIPS!



PS I LOOK SO MUCH LIKE MY MOM DID AT MY AGE WEIRDDDD..


Can't believe its been a year... RIP MOMMY <3

Limecrime Lipstick!

So the day has come!! Today I finally received all 13 shades of the Limecrime's lipstick Candyfuture collection. I immediately ripped open the package! By the way the packaging on these lipsticks is way too cute. The lipsticks arrived in a teal box with neon green tissue paper, each lipstick in a purple box with a silver unicorn, pretty amazing. Also if you worried, Limecrime just changed the formula of their lipsticks so they are now vegan, and no testing on animals! SCORE!

Here is a picture of the open box:





Now on to my review,
So the first thing I did was try them all on, there is only one shade I'm not a fan,New Yolk City. I feel like it's a little to yellow and I can't figure out a way I could really wear this color out. There are other colors in the collection you would think would be hard to wear, but they are so much prettier and if you have an imagination you will go far. I'm going to show you some swatches the four colors on the right are definitely harder to wear. But guess what I have decided for the next few months, or however it long it will take me I'm going to make, make up looks inspired by each of these lipstick colors! Well maybe besides the New Yolk City. I really don't like it as of now, but who knows? Maybe it will grow on me?

So Overall, if you thinking about buying a Limecrime lipstick, the chances of you liking it are high. They are very pigment,bright and just like the box says they look like candy in the future! I feel like these lipstick will stay on long the texture has this smooth feel to it, but I will update you when I wear them out on the town. So get ready for some Limecrime looks!!!

SWATCHES!!!

Makeup Haul

Lately I have been on a make up buying spree. It's probably because on the hcg diet vlcd you may only wear a very limited amount of makeup, because most of it has butter and oils. This is probably the reason I found it necessary to buy all 13 shades of lime crime's lipstick. Which I will blog about when I recieve in mail. Im really excited, but today I will talk about the rest of the makeup I recently aquired. I recently got a Saks Fifth Avenue gift card and of course I bought makeup with part of it. I got Chanel's orchid rose blush, the le vernis black pearl nail polish and the spring collection 5 shadow ombres pearl. Also, the lady showed me the summer collection and I fell in love with the eyeliner so I was put on the order list, for when the collection comes in. I am very excited because the eye liner looks like the color I that my eyes will be doing a lot of popping in it. I love all my channel products and I will definitely do a Chanel inspired look. I also purchased one of Make Up Forever diamond collection lab shine D8, Mac Magenta lip liner, and Macs pressed powder love all of these! Finally but not least, I stopped at the good ol' Mills today and scored an awesome Nars palette for $47 bucks at the Off Saks store, orginally it was $100.

Here it is! The NARS 15th Anniversary Everlasting Love Palette


I used this palette today to make this 70's dark eyes look, with a nude lip. The eye shadow in this palette is very creamy and smooth. I'm not a big fan lipsticks on a palette I don't like using lipstick in these kinds of palettes because you need a brush and they usually not stick well. I wasn't blown away by this one. I am in love with the blush called Orgazm it's a nice shimmery orangy pink color, it gives you a nice pop. LOVE IT! Its a big plus to have in this palette since I paid $47, and the blush itself cost $27 dollar.

Here is the look:


Here is the eye:


Overall, I think this palette is pretty good. They are not my usual colors, but it has benefits and the eye shadow is creamy and highly pigmented. I would not but this palette for $100, but if its on sale I would get it.

I also wanted to share this awesome pattern on my new pants, it's hard to put outfits together but its def worth it, I mean come on, very unique.

In Preparation

Right now I'm working on many projects for school, which means less blogging time. No worry my friends soon I promise an array of posts. I recently have received a gift card for a $1000 to Saks Fifth Avenue and in about two weeks I'm going to have a little fun with it and go on a shopping SPREEE! YES. Very Excited. Also, I have many things I'd like to review for you guys soon. I just Purchased the Ombres Perlees Eyeshadow Palette from Chanel. I was passing by the Chanel department at Macy's and saw this palette glistening in the light. I just had to get it. This palette is from the Spring 2011 collection. I cannot WAIT to try these colors out! Also in the make up category, Lime Crime's new lipstick colors are coming out in exactly one week March 7th. This is very exciting because, the color I've been searching is finally going to be available.




Diet Update: I'm now more than half way done with the diet only 12 days left! I feel fine, I'm still a little hungry nothing major. I'm not craving like I did before, but I cannot wait to try the New Walden Farm products (zero-calorie) I purchased and review them for you guys. The weight is also taking longer to come off but, I'm still losing which is great.

Should I buy this bag?
