This is not a favorites because there isn't anything new or exciting to talk about. These are just a few items that I have been using a lot more than most items in my collection. Since my skin has cleared up I have just doing very simple daily makeup. It's kinda slowly down around here for me so I am letting my skin breathe and just being more natural. I do love these products, if you have any specific questions please ask.

Thanks for stopping by!

Why they didn't work for me...

1)I had mentioned these Eyeliner Pens in my favorites because apparently I had gotten lucky with the first few I bought. However, I ordered 1 in every color from the website and they have been terrible. They are dry,you can't put it over eyeshadow because it drags the shadow off with it. The black looks gray because it's so light on the eye. I will admit that the Teal shade is the only one that has consistently worked for me, and during the summer I wore it on the bottom lash line. They are only $1.00 but for it being a hit or miss I wouldn't waste my time hoping to get a good one.

2)This product flaked off on me throughout the day, laying on my face so if I was to swipe my face it would leave a streak of product on my face. It went on very watery and not very black at all. Then when it came to taking it off it also just came off in pieces which lead to it smearing all over my eyes and even with trying all my might I couldn't keep it from going into my eyes. It doesn't have to be waterproof if its gonna flake off anyways, one day it actually peeled halfway off.

3)This is the greatest upset because of its price tag that it did nothing for my eyelashes. It put product on them and made them black but other than that, nothing. I am using it a long side my other favorite lash products to use it up. I hate to just toss it, but it didn't make them thicker or longer so I have to say for $19 not impressed.

4)This product I picked up at the local Big Lots so I only payed a few bucks for it. I loved the colors and when swatched they are really pretty. However, they crease even with a primer and powder over top. I tried them several ways to make them work for me but it just creased. They were so oily that they literally worked their way up with the shadow into my crease line. So I had nothing on my eye anywhere but in the crease. They still sell these at CVS and Walgreens so be mindful that there are great products in Maybelline just not these. 

5)This product was hard as a rock and would not blend out for nothing. I used my finger to dig into it and put it on my hand to try and get a swatch and it just rolled up in a ball on my hand. I tried it as a liner but it just doesn't show up it has no color to it at all. So for $3.00 I will say pass on this product. I also got it in a purple and brown shade in hopes that this was gonna be a great cheap creme shadow. They are all the same and no color payoff.

New York Color blushable creme stick: .28oz for $2.99 

These are just a few creme products in stick form that I have. I just wanted to give you an idea of pigmentation,price and size. I love NARS multiples I have at some point had probably every shade they had. I end up giving them away because I don't use them enough. I think for the price ELF and NYC are great products. The Sonia Kashuk I have 4 shades in the Cheek Sheer and they are all very pretty, however they are expensive for the size. I have placed an order with ELF to get the rest of the shades for the rest of the Body Shimmers.

They all offer great staying power, and if used with a powder they will last for the duration of your day. So tell me what multiples have you been using? Do you have a favorite? Have you tried any of these?

Color: Cosmic Coral

Price:$3.00

How I use it: I apply it to the back of my hand, a little bit goes a long way. Then take a stippling brush and apply it as a highlighter along my cheekbone. I have been using the Tarte blush in Tipsy a long with this and it looks so gorgeous. It last all day, and I have gotten a lot of compliments on the beautiful finish that it gives.

They have 4 shades which I am going to place a new order to buy them.  I would compare it to the same type of product as NARS multiples it is the same concept, and same type of product. I love my NARS multiples and use them a lot on clients. I will be trying the rest of the shades on some clients and see what they think.

Have you tried these? Let me know what you think!

I remember the moment I fell in love with makeup,and all things girly. Even when I went through my tomboy stage I still put sparkly glitter nail polish on the soles of  my Vans or Air walks and did my hair and makeup for the basketball games. I have been cutting peoples hair,and doing their makeup since I was a 12.  It is something that I have always loved and enjoyed being a part of. Long before there were You tube videos, blogs, twitter, and especially before I even knew what a Sephora was.

I have an older sister who is also an amazing makeup artist, who has I believe was born with a mascara wand and makeup brush in hand. She got me into doing makeup and even taught me how to do my very own perm in the 90's(shut up, it was the 90's). We use to buy Sassy magazine,YM and Seventeen and do makeovers on all the neighborhood kids.

Makeup and beauty has always been fun for me. I feel like since You Tube and the beauty blogging community has become so big it's not fun anymore. I want to learn something, see something different,be intrigued by what you say. If everything you put out there isn't out of honesty, and isn't coming from a good place then I don't have any interest in what you say. I only have 97 followers on my blog, and I turn down companies. Yes, I have turned down several companies who want to send me something that I have no interest in. I am honest to them and let them know that I will be honest to you. They decided to not send it to me, so it tells me that the reviews I see on these products are probably not in good faith.

I think it's amazing what can come from being a part of this community. The opportunties are endless, and they are amazing. I have met some of the greatest people just since I started this blog. I want you to know that I will not be posting endless reviews on things that are sent to me. I won't be rambling on about all my newest things, because money doesn't equal talent. I will keep my post to things that I want to share, I am not saying I don't do post that are frivolous. I don't care if you want to do a post a day about the Kardashian's at least you are being honest about who you are and what you like. 

I hope you take this post as it is meant, and know that I love being apart of this community. It just takes a few bag apples to ruin it for me sometimes. I love seeing your reviews,your input, new thoughts and ideas. I look forward to doing new post, and to seeing yours.
