FOTD; Fresh for Fall



I am wearing Bare Minerals Foundation in Fairly Light, Revlon's Eyeshadow Quad in Coffee Bean, NYX Gray Eyeliner, Loreal Voluminous Mascara in black, NYC Bronzer in Sunny, Covergirl Blush in Plumberry Glow, Jordana Lip liner in Baby Berry and Maybeline Moisture Whip Lipstick in Sugar Plum Ice with a mix of the Covergirl Blush Plumberry Glow. A little trick of mine is after applying my lipstick I dab a little of the blush I am using on my lips. It really makes your blush pop.

Look what I got at the dollar store!


I was very excited to see that the Dollar Tree has a whole new section of really good makeup. Usually the only thing you will find is some out dated makeup from unknown makeup brands. To my surprise they had Maybeline Mineral Blushes, Revlon Liners, Almay Pure Eye shadows, Maybeline Eye shadows, NYC Lipsticks, Almay Pure Foundation and more that I have to investigate. If you walk into a CVS these products are on display now for regular price. I feel like I hit a home run to say the least. If you ad up what I got at the Dollar Tree at regular price at CVS it comes to 55.00. Now I only payed 8.00 at the Dollar Tree. They had so much more but I didn't have the time to go through it all. I will be back this week and update you on what else they have. Get to your local Dollar Tree, I guarantee you will feel like you hit a home run too! Do you know of any stores that sell makeup for dirt cheap? I would love to know!

Loreal Collagen Micro Pulse Total Eye Correcting System


When I first laid my eyes on the Loreal Collagen Micro Pulse System, it reminded me of something I am too ladylike to say. Let's just say us girls know what I'm talking about. My CVS Beauty Advisor walked me over to the display to show me the new innovative product from Loreal. We both giggled when feeling the pulsing vibration of this strong little device. I wondered if this was gentle for the delicate eye area. There are tiny little capillaries under our eyes that break from rubbing your eyes to hard, or when taking off makeup, so I wasn't sure if this was to safe to use. I am interested to see how this product works. I will let you know as soon as I review it. I am adding a new edition to my blog, where I will be interviewing my local CVS Beauty Advisor twice a month about her favorite makeup and skincare items of the moment. She will also be letting me in on some insider tips she learns at the beauty conventions CVS sends her to. She hooks me up with all the best deals in beauty. I will be letting you in on those deals as well. I absolutely adore her, she really knows her stuff. CVS has come along way in there beauty department and I am loving every minute of it.

My fiery obsession with red hair






Ever since I was a little girl I have been obsessed and mesmerized with red hair. It's so unique and beautiful. Red hair is so warm and inviting yet fiery and rebellious. There are different shades of red. The shades vary between copper, auburn, chestnut and strawberry blonde. Red hair brings such warmth to your skin and brightens your eyes. Think Julia Roberts in Pretty Women, I was obsessed with that movie to say the least. She didn't just have red hair, she had big red hair. When I think redhead I think bombshell, think Jessica Rabbit. I've had black, brown and blonde hair but when I'm a redhead is when I feel most attractive. I feel invigorated and warm like sitting in front of the fireplace on a cool fall day. I can smell that pumpkin pie baking now. What do you think about red hair. Would you ever consider ever going red. Is there a red headed celebrity you admire, I would love to know.

Please watch this video on the story of toxins in our cosmetics!
