Hey hey now beauties!!

Zoya Summer 2015 Island Fun & Paradise Sun


Hey Beauties...


Introducing two new Zoya Nail Polishcollections for Summer 2015, Island Fun & Paradise Sun. All in the Big5Free* formula Zoya is famous for.

ISLAND FUN (creams)

Ready for an island vacation, these playful creams embody a tropical getaway! They are strong in color to balance the brilliance of the summer sun, with a flawless cream formula.

• Jace (ZP796) - Modern tropical green in a full coverage and densely pigmented cream formula. A green that is more muted than lime and surprisingly wearable!

• Cecilia (ZP797) - Classic teal in a full coverage and densely pigmented cream formula.

• Talia (ZP798) - True turquoise in full coverage and densely pigmented cream formula. 

• Serenity (ZP799) - Summer purple in a full coverage and densely pigmented cream formula. Reminiscent of beautiful blooming irises, a harbinger of summer! 

• Nana (ZP800) - Deep summer fuchsia in a full coverage and densely pigmented cream formula.

• Demetria (ZP801) - A vibrant poppy red in a full coverage and densely pigmented cream formula.

 

PARADISE SUN (metallics)

Fully saturated with a gorgeous micronized metallic sheen, these shimmering beauties are much like sunshine sparkling on water. Meant to be used as an independent color, these shades feature a full-coverage, densely pigmented formula. 

• Genesis (ZP790) - Crystalline white with a micronized metallic pearl finish. Designed to look like micro-fine diamond dust!

• Selene (ZP791) - True teal with a micronized metallic pearl finish. A unique shade with an aqua fleck that resembles deeper

layers of ocean water.

• Oceane (ZP792) - True turquoise with a micronized metallic pearl finish that reflects the clearest blue ocean waters. 

• Isa (ZP793) - Deep blue-based purple with a micronized metallic pearl finish and an aqua flash that embodies the beauty of exotic island flowers.

• Mae (ZP794) - Warm magenta pink with a micronized metallic pearl finish, reminiscent of vibrant Mediterranean flowers.

• Aphrodite (ZP795) - Vibrant summer red with a micronized pearl metallic finish and multi-hued flash that brings it to life.

These will be AVAILABLE 05/05/15!

TNCC Recreate a look 3

Good morning beauties....

It's Sunday and I know how close Monday is so I'm going to enjoy this day till the second to the end lol...

Today I have my look nĂºmero TRES (Salma Hayek accent). I recreated this look from the lovely Karine (Karine's Vernis Club) who did this design some time ago. It looked like bubbles or water spotting to me so that's what inspired me to recreate it.

Here is her design....


Here is my recreation

Randomness nails

Hey beauties... 

I haven't had much spunk in me to make posts this week. To tell you the truth, I have had naked nails all week; and yes I know that is how it goes sometimes no biggie!

I did attempt to do my nails but ended up removing the polish. Here are two manis I did with a water marble design.

Maybelline Matte +Poreless Foundation

Hi Beauties....

I wanted to show you all my first day of trying Maybelline's Matte +Poreless foundation. I am a foundation hoarder and have been on the hunt for my holy grail foundation. I've used Maybelline Matte Mousse foundation for a long time so now I want to venture out. I also purchased a foundation from BECCA cosmetics so I'll let you know how that works out for me as well.

I want a matte finish because I hate the shiny oily look (who loves that kind of stuff). I Will be editing my post at the end of the day to show you all how it looked after at least eight hours. 

I am wearing #355 color foundation and from the start I notice that it quickly covers up some black marks I have on my chin area and others. Below is a before and after look. So far I like it.

I'm working on keeping my skin healthy so that makeup is just a perk... Excuse my eyebrows also btw :)

Essence Adorable Matt

TGIF Beauties, it's almost time for the freakin weekend (& end fast it does)!! 

Today I blindly took a lippie from my stash and chose a red matte lipstick I got months ago from Ulta. 

Essence is a UK based brand in case you didn't know and their products are cheap and cute. This lipstick is only $2.99 but it backs up its talk. It's red just the way I like it and it's matte just the way I like it!! This color is a true red called Adorable Matt!!

P.S. peep my way of hiding my pimple above my lip with a made up mole lol.... It works for me :).

The Beauty Buffs Recreate your makeup bag

Hi Beauties, it's Wednesday AND another link up post for The Beauty Buffs!!


I chose a makeup bag that I need to start using, only because I adore the one I'm using now and have done a post on it for another link up post. This you can buy from Forever 21 for $4.90. I love anything with lips or hearts on it :). The Ever Glaze polish I am using is called Wednesday & I have to say that so far all the Ever Glaze polish formulas I've bought has been thick (not liking it).
