Kiss Me by Blinc Whoa! Have I got an awesome liquid eyeliner for you! This stuff goes on so smooth, so fine, and SO black! It dries quickly and stays on like no other liquid liner I have ever used before. Seriously, I did some major "cat eyes" on myself over the weekend. We had a late night out and although I broke the cardinal sin of skin care by going to bed without washing my face, I woke up the next morning and my eyeliner looked as perfect as the moment I had originally applied it! Crazy! I'm a believer. Hallelujah! Rejoice! Check out their stuff at http://www.blincinc.com/ .

Hello lovely dolls! First off, let me thank you for visiting this new blog. I know there are a million and one to choose to look at and read and I really appreciate you time, interest and support. Thank you :) I have been doing makeup since I was a young girl. My Aunt would go through her makeup once a year and give me all the cosmetics she didn't want anymore. It was like Christmas for me. I would then patiently anticipate snagging my sister's Vogue magazine when she was through reading it. Naturally, for me, the next step was putting those tossed out magazines and cosmetics to use! I would find a girl in the magazine whom I thought had cool makeup and then attempt to copy the look on my face with the colors I had. It was so much fun. Oh, and by the way....this was in the 80's so you can only imagine all the vivid blues, purples, greens, thick eyeliner, bright blush and heavy lipstick. Only if my mom would have taken pictures of my creations along with the tears from the m

Are you looking for that, "I'm not wearing foundation!" foundation look? Well, one good trick of the trade is to spritz your foundation brush with a product like Fix + by MAC Cosmetics after applying your foundation or while you are applying your foundation. Just brush over your entire face up into your hair line and down the base of your jawbone, chin, and neck. This will give you nice coverage but with a natural sheer radiance. Set with some blot powder and your skin will look refined and poreless!

Tried and True: A basic summer look Although I am not really one to bask in the sun and get super tan, I still love summer for it's long days and warm nights. My coloring usually turns a shade or two darker and my freckles come out. I find myself not needing to spend too much time on being creative with my makeup since my new summer color is pretty all on its own. A simple sheer SPF Foundation/moisturizer along with some mascara and a peachy gloss and my look is simple and pretty. On other days I get away with just spritzing myself with some Fix+ by MAC Cosmetics and adding a little bit of tinted lip conditioner with an SPF of 15. Of course I don't ever forget to add a bit of mascara. I love "X" by MAC Cosmetics.

If you are a makeup junkie like me, you can't get
