Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Full Coverage Foundation

A few months ago, I was going out for the night with a friend and I was wanting a good foundation that would last the night and not apply looking like a cakey mess. I Googled some stuff per usual and I settled on the Tarte Amazonian Clay Foundation, but I died a little on the inside when I saw the price of it. $39 is a lot for one product in my opinion! I decided to go up to Ulta anyways and get a sample of the foundation, because lets me real, it could have worked horribly, but I was willing to take the risk. Ha!

Thanksgiving Day Makeup

Hello hello!

I hope that you all had a fantastic Thanksgiving if you are in the US! Mine was ....well lets just say it went from uneventful and stressful to a party! I was up way too early and did my makeup at 10am, when I knew I had nothing to do until 4pm. I am so grateful that my face lasted long enough without looking like a dang mess!

I'm slowly trying to get back into the groove of things really. I do have a list of posts to get out, especially I have a few set up for January so yay! I'm pretty excited for 2016!

I thought that this was a nice look for Thanksgiving it wasn't too out there and it combined my love of neutrals with my love of color. You can't go wrong there! Also, I must mention, the lip gloss that I wore in the post, I ACTUALLY wore out. So yeah, we are slowly getting somewhere with me wearing lip colors! *high five* Heck, I might even wear a red out for my birthday ! :O

FOTD #7

Hello everyone!

Today's FOTD is pretty basic. I had tried something different earlier and it definitely did NOT work out... Pft figures right? My plan for today was something basic, I've not done my everyday eye look lately so I wanted to do it but put a little spin on it!

Check out what I did after the jump!

FOTD 4.07.12

Hey everyone! I know I said that I would not be really doing any blog posts until my thumbs heals. Well! Its doing okay, hurts if I move it the wrong way, but its healing pretty well!

I really wanted to do this blog post because I managed to get 100% dressed on MY OWN! Now, you may think its silly to get excited about that, but when you don't have a thumb to hook your bra or to zip your pants, being able to get 100% dressed and do BOTH of those things, you get excited.

Haha.

So I managed to do my makeup and even do my liquid liner. Crazy excited!

Im trying a new foundation, but its a secret which one it is. I will let you know very soon though! :)

My Favorite Mascaras!

So! Its that time of the month again!

... No you weirdos, not THAT THAT time, its BeautyWarriors time! I actually really look forward to the beautywarriors time of the month because I get to see what everyone's FAVORITE products or what they came up with for that month <3. I really do love it.

Anyways, this month is Favorite Mascaras. I have 2. Why 2? Because I can and unfortunately 1 is discontinued. Why am I talking about it then? because I think it was just repackaged, but when I went to check CVS, they had just started their cosmetics reset so they literally had NOTHING! Which was a bit depressing because I was there to get a couple things I needed. *sad face*

Anyways, so I have one drugstore and one high end mascara and I figure I will start with the drug store, since that is the one discontinued.

So my Drugstore favorite is the Rimmel London Glam'Eyes Lash Flirt Volume and Lift mascara.

I have the color Kohl Black. I typically buy black mascaras anyways unless they are the eye color enhancing ones, and that is rare. :)

Now I can't tell you what I payed for it because I got it wow, about 1 year ago and it was 75% off. It was put into my stash of mascaras then got used and I have been holding onto it just to do a video about it and now that I have the chance :D Woot! Anyways, I can not show you pictures of it on my lashes because its gone rancid.. well it went rancid a while ago. And I would rather not have an eye infection or my lashes fall off. (lol Over exaggeration about the lashes falling off)

But this mascara did EVERYTHING that I want a mascara to do. it kept a curl, even with my squinting like I always wind up doing. It was so black its not even funny. It gave me the lift and volume that I wish my lashes had WITHOUT mascara. Seriously this was my holy grail mascara. I was so sad when it went rancid on me. :( I am on a serious quest to find to find the match to this mascara from Rimmel. I WILL FIND IT!! >D And when I do, you all will be the first to know. :)

NOW! Onto my High End Mascara.

That lovely one is the Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes Mascara.
Have you tried this one? I got the full version of it from the Sephora Black Friday sale, but that is still unopened. The picture and the one I have used is the deluxe sample size. And I still love it! Even though I didn't get to use it as long as I would have liked, because it's a smaller version!
Now, I'm not exactly sure about the 424% what not. But I still love this mascara. It gave me super black lashes and some awesome volume!

I really wish this mascara wasn't so much, or I would crazy stock up on it, even though I have 1 full size and another deluxe sample that came with a palette.

This mascara however gave me the lift and volume that I want. It always gave me intensely BLACK lashes, which is something that I absolutely LOVE love LOVE!
