Viva Glam Gaga II Lipstick

Just wanted to share my love for Viva Glam Gaga II!! The color is a bit interesting, and I've heard a lot of people can't pull it off, but with my NW20 complexion, I think it is pretty fun!!

And a silly "glamour" shot for ya!

Here it is compared to 'Fleshpot' that I had in my purse the day I got this lipstick:

top: VG Gaga II; bottom: Fleshpot

Based on other reviews I've seen on the internet, it seems like this lipstick is one you will definitely need to try on in person; However, I am certain that fairer chicas like me will find it pretty flattering. 

What do you think of VG Gaga II?

FOTD: MAC 'Saffron' Eyeshadow

Thought I'd share a look I did last week with 'Saffron' eyeshadow from MAC's Mickey Contractor.

'Saffron' is a gorgeous burnt orange shade. Unfortunately, it is hard to get a hold of these days, but you can substitute it with 'Rule', 'Red Brick' or 'Off the Page' for a comparative look.

-Saffron e/s

After Temptalia's readers voted this the #1 primer, I kinda couldn't help myself from wanting to try it too! I don't have some long, elaborate review, but I do have to say that I am also very pleased with the results! Keep reading for photos!

MAC 'Peacocky' Mega Metal Eyeshadows!

Photobucket

Yes, I realize that I am way behind with posting these eyeshadows, but in my defense, I didn't pick any up until this past week when I just couldn't hold out any longer!

I love the finish of these shadows, they're so smooth and perfectly pigmented. Keep reading for photos of my fave 5!

Too Faced 'Romantic Eye' Palette Photos + Look

Photobucket

When I saw this palette on Sephora's website, I knew it had to be mine! It took me a while to finally get my hands on it, since my Sephora store didn't have it stocked for quite some time, but I am pretty happy that I did get it, because it is just so pretty! Keep reading for swatches and a look!

MAC Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder Controversy?

Well hello, long time no talk! Things have been a bit hectic for me over the holiday season, and I just started a new, very time consuming job- which is a great challenge for me, but super exciting! And, I hate to say it, but sometimes I just need a bit of a break from the internets!

Photobucket

Never fear though, because I'm back, and with a review of MAC's Prep+Prime Transparent Finishing Powder. This powder is kinda MAC's version of MUFE's HD powder, but certainly with a twist. Is it better or worse? Keep reading to find out!

PS: There is quite a surprise to be had!
