L'Oreal Voluminous Butterfly Effects Mascara Review !

Hey Everyone! This is the most exciting Post that I have done!!! I have been waiting and waiting for this product to hit the shelves and I have searched high and low for it. I was soooo Excited when I stumbled upon it at Wal-Mart out the blue when I was with my husband picking up some items that I needs for a trip I went on this past Weekend! So here we go! Let me know what you guys think and Feel Free to leave me Comments Below!!!

L’Oreal Voluminous Butterfly Effects Mascara

According to L’Oreal the Voluminous Butterfly Effects Mascara is suppost to be the latest to jump on the trend of the winged out look for the eyes, although I feel this is truly a one of a kind mascara. This mascara has a specially designed brush that has bristles that wing out on the end that make your lashes appear to be fuller and longer closer to the outer corner of your eye where you would traditionally wing out your eyeliner.

The formula of this mascara is very wet. So you have to be cautious when applying it as it is very easy to smear. I do like the formula, I feel that it did not run onto my lower lash line or under my eyelashes and I have had zero flaking. I have worn this mascara several times since purchasing it and the true test was when I was in a wedding this past weekend, I chose to wear it with my False Eyelashes to give it a true test. MUCH to my surprise it worked out better than I expected. I applied one coat and put the falsies on and then applied another coat to marry the lashes to my falsies. My pictures turned out beautiful and the look I was going for was there!! I chose the color #868 Blackest Black… I did not see a water proof formula but that is not to say that there won’t be one anytime soon. However at a wedding you know there can be tears and it held up pretty well, especially when the father of the bride gave his speech…It was a tear jerker!

Just a little blip it of me and my 2 besties before the ceremony 

The packaging is beautiful. L'Oreal chose to do a silver tube with black lines on it to make it appear as if the lines with the lashes. The brush and wand are of that plastic bristles, which I happen to like better than the other types of brushes that are out there. I think I Paid right around $7 or $8 at my Wal-Mart…. I was just so excited I totally forgot to look at the price.

Now for the Negative…. The only negative that I found is that the winged end of the mascara wand is only on one end. Which your thinking isn't that how it should be , well yes it should however I am right handed so it works awesome when doing my right eye, but when I switch to do the lashes on my left eye it can feel a bit awkward the way you have to position your hand and wrist. OTHER than that I think that L'Oreal Got it Right with this Mascara!! 

I would recommend that you purchase it as soon as you can find it!

Review and Swatches of Urban Decay The Black Palette

Hey Everyone! I hope you are all have a good Day!! 

Today I am going to be doing a quick review on the Urban Decay The Black Palette. I hope you enjoy.

Lets get Started.....

This palette contains 6 pans of eye shadow. These colors are great to create a dramatic smokey look. There are 4 shimmer shades and 1 matte Shade. It comes with a 24/7 Glide On Eyeliner Pencil in Zero. The palette itself contains a rather large mirror, which is a plus! The box that the shadows come has a magnetic closure and it keeps everything secure.

The Shadow Shades Are:

Black Doge- Matte

Barracuda - Shimmer

Jet - Shimmer

Sabbath - Shimmer

Cobra - Shimmer

Libertine - Shimmer

These shades a sooooo pigmented! I can not even begin to describe how pigmented they are. It doesn't take a lot to get the color on your eye lid. The shadows are also easy to blend, which is very important when trying to create a dramatic eye look. 

The only negative thing about this palette is there is some fall out of the shadows when they are applied. I would recommend that you apply your eye shadow prior to your foundation and powder so that it is easier to remove the fall out. 

This palette I purchased at Ulta and it retails for $36.00.

My Final Thoughts:

If you are able to get your hands on this palette I would recommend it to you, especially if you LOVE to create smokey eye looks.

I hope you Enjoyed this Post!

Let's Get Started.....

1. All week long I have been wearing and Loving the Elf Baked Eye shadows! I have three of them, but the two that I have been wearing this week are toasted and bark. They are very shimmery and full of pigmentation. I have created several great warm fall looks with these. Love them! and they are only $3!! O P.S. I found mine at my Wal-Mart which I was super excited to see Wal-Mart starting to Carry Elf!

2. Revlon Lip Butter in Sugar Plum. Everyone knows how wonderful the Lip Butter's are from Revlon. This color is perfect for fall. It is a rich dark Mauve/Cranberry color and I absolutely LOVE IT.

3. Cover girl Cheekers Blush in True Plum, again a great color for fall. This blush as just a tiny bit of sheen too it so you have to be a little careful, but the overall color is perfect for my skin tone and it stays looking great all day. Although I hate the smell that cover girl makeup has.... Does anyone else get bothered by the smell? Let me know in the comments below.

4. NYX Nude Matte Eye Shadow In Skinny Dip. This is a totally Matte Eye Shadow and is AMAZING for warm Smokey eye looks. It is almost a similar color to my Sugar Plum Lip Butter... It is a warm rich burnt brown with just a hit of maroon in it. I LOVE IT! Great choice for a fall look whether it be an all over eye look or something really Smokey.

That's all I have for this week, check back next Friday for my Favorites!

The Autumn Tag

The Autumn Tag

Hey Everyone! Fall is my Favorite time of year... In Kentucky where I live it is soooo beautiful, all of the leaves are changing and it's so pretty with all of the beautiful hills.

Favorite thing about Autumn
 -I think I am going to have to say the cool weather. I love wearing boots, scarves, cute lightweight jackets etc. I also love Keeneland, which in case you don't know what that is, here in Lexington, KY every October there is the fall meet at Keeneland for the horse races. It is so much fun everyone gets dressed up and goes out and bets, drinks and has a great time.
Favorite Drink
-I'm going to have to say either a Hot Tea or Apple Cider. I love the fall because I can bring out all of my hot teas and drink them at night before bed.

Fave Scent/Candle
 -Currently I am obsessed with the Pumpkin Pecan Waffle Candle from Bath and Body Works! This is probably the most amazing scent ever! I tried to go back and get some more and my store and online was already sold out. I am hoping I can get my hands on a couple of more!

 Best Lipstick
 -I love to wear Mauve colors this time of year, I feel they can go well with anything.

Go to Moisturizer
 -Most recently I have been using the Estee Launder Resilience Lift, so far I am liking it.

Fave Go to Color for the eyes

 -I love to go with gold's, cranberry's, browns and coppers

Favorite Music/Singer/Band to listen to
-Currently I don't have one particular favorite, Although on my Sirius Radio I have been rocking the 90's on 9 or the Pop2K channel...I am bringing back my middle school and high school days!

Favorite Outfit to wear

-Leggings, Tunic top made of thin t-shirt material, denim jackets, boots, hoop earrings, my Kentucky Necklace...I just love fall fashion

Autumn Treat
-Probably going to have to go with the Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream from Greater's or the Pumpkin Spice Latte From Starbucks.

Favorite Place to be
-Outside or at Keeneland which is outdoors also!!!
