New Hair & Bright Lips

Fresh faced and feeling good.

Anyone who knows me well knows that when I have short hair, I enjoy with getting it cut, and pretty often at that. I love different variations of the pixie and mohawk. I love volume, and I love the low maintenance of it, especially in the summer. I love being able to have it messy and unruly on the top while being slick and chic on the sides. 

I do have to rave about my new favorite lipgloss- I have it in on in the photo above! While browsing through Target with my mom and sister in the cosmetics section for an absurd amount of time, I came across this lipgloss that caught my eye. I work at Sephora and I still always find myself browsing through drugstore makeup. I have a soft spot for pink lipglosses/lipsticks, I have to make myself not buy them because I have WAY too many as it is. It's Revlon's Colorburst lipgloss in Hot Pink (go figure).

Hot Pink is the first color on the left. 

This lipgloss is just. freaking. awesome. I have tried so many different lipgloss and I had this one for about three hours on busy Saturday and wasn't able to touch it up until I took my break and I still had a subtle shimmer on my lips! The Revlon Colorburst gloss is moisturizing, and the color you see in the tube is the same color payoff you'll get on your lips. Complete lip gloss love.

*The lipgloss runs at about $6.75*

Venomous Villains

I picked up my pre-ordered wonderfulness (yes, I know that's not a word but it fits my purchase perfectly) from MAC today. I haven't been this excited for a makeup purchase in a long time and a buy makeup pretty often. Their newest limited edition collection is called Venomous Villains and it's theme is based on the villains in Disney movies, it's fitting seeing as how Halloween is just a month away. I love the Evil Queen and Maleficent the most from the collection, I do find it funny because Snow White and Sleeping Beauty were two of my least favorite Disney movies. I was more of an Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast type of girl.
Gloss: Revenge is Sweet
Eyeshadow duo: She Who Dares
Lipstick:  Toxic Tale
Blush: Bite of an Apple
This lipstick is definitely not for the lady who is afraid of color! I'm a fan of bright lips so this was right up my alley. I do enjoy the color by itself but I applied some of the gloss on top and that sealed the deal for me, perfect!
Bite of an Apple, a matte pinky coral blush that would work well on most skin tones.
I'm probably going to wear this mineralize eye shadow duo tomorrow because these colors are gorgeous, a deep cobalt blue and a rich hunter green. Their mineralize eye shadows are highly pigmented even with all the shimmer. I'm glad I was able to get a hold of some collection before certain pieces sold out.
