FAVORITES | February 2015 ♥

Wahhh can't believe it's the end of February already! I know it's a shorter month than usual but those 2-3 days seem to make a huge difference. February was quite an eventful month for me so my makeup life suffered a bit. Haven't posted a Favorites in months so I'm glad to share some items I've been loving. I've finally found a body butter that I love so let's get on with it.

EMPTIES | February 2015 ♥

Posting this one time for once--yay! February was a slow month for me in the number of products I finished but I'm using up more of my full sized products. This one has a couple of repeats but that just shows you how much I love them! Let's jump right into the items I'm sad to see go.

UNBOXING | January 2015 Ipsy Bag

This is the last one I'll be posting as I need to cut back on beauty spending...trying to be a responsible adult >.< Anyhoo, the long and short of it is that you get 4-5 products every month. A whole week has gone by with no post so I'm glad to be posting this finally :D Let's get into it!

FOTD | Naked and Exposed: The Valentine's Day Special

I'm (perversely?) satisfied with my title, haha. 50 Shades of Grey has been on my mind lately as the movie hit theaters this past Valentine's Day weekend here in the States. With everyone on my social media feeds talking about it and extensive PR, I couldn't avoid it--if you can't beat 'em, join 'em! My friends and I planned on going to see it but as I wasn't feeling well, we settled on dinner and movies at home instead. So grateful for friends that are willing to change up their plans for little ol' me at the last minute--thanks y'all! 

I've been a bit under the weather lately so blog posts have been scarce around here. I actually tried this look out a week ago so that I could post it as a Valentine's Day look but we all know how that turned out (╥︣﹏᷅╥) Anyhoo, no use crying over spilt milk so let's get on with the show! It's not exactly a tutorial but hopefully my explanations will help you see how I created this look :D

EMPTIES | December 2014 & January 2015 ♡

I know we are in the middle of February already but I just wanted to post this before February's empties comes around. Since I was on break, I didn't use my makeup or anything, really, so this empties will be a bit smaller. Nevertheless, let's jump right in!

FOTD | "Sweet on You": Valentine's Day Edition

History repeats itself on my blog as last year's Valentine's Day look was also late. However, I decided to go ahead and call it this anyway even though Valentine's Day has come and gone. The important part is the makeup, not so much the holiday itself, amirite? I love applying my makeup and such more than going to the actual event so consider this my playground results! I've heard tons of good things about the Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette so I decided to grab and test it for myself. I'm still in my honeymoon (testing) phase with this so I'll share my thoughts soon! I decided to use products whose names reminded me of love and romance in honor of Valentine's Day. Anyway, on with the look~

REVIEW | Makeup Geek Foiled Eyeshadows

When I started out in makeup, my favorite makeup products were eyeshadows, especially shimmery ones. I would only wear eyeshadow and no other makeup, LOL. Fast forward 5 years, I'm still loving eyeshadows. When I heard that Makeup Geek was releasing the Foiled Eyeshadows, I immediately rushed to get on the mailing list to pre-order these. Now that I've had some time to play around with these, I'm going to share my thoughts with you! The shades I have are Grandstand, Mesmerized, In the Spotlight, and Showtime.

REVIEW | Makeup Geek Eyeshadows

The Makeup Geek Eyeshadows need no elaborate introduction. If you've been following the Youtube beauty community for any amount of time, you've most likely heard about the Makeup Geek, Marlena. She released these eyeshadows a while back but I only tapped into these recently. After playing with them for a while. here are my thoughts on them! I chose 8 colors: Unexpected, Sensuous, Twilight, Prom Night, Cosmopolitan, Cinderella, Bitten, and Moondust.

REVIEW | Makeup Geek Pigments

I admit, I'm not a fan of pigments. Being a slightly clumsy person, loose powders scary the makeup beejeesus out of me. However, I heard so many good things about Makeup Geek Pigments and decided to take a leap of faith. I ordered four pigments to start off: Birthday Wish, Enchanted, Insomnia, and Utopia.

UNBOXING | Holika Holika Memebox

I'm sure most of you have heard of both MEMEBOX and Holika Holika by now if you've dabbled in Korean makeup. This box is one of my favorites as I've been able to get use out of all the items, which is rare for me in mystery subscription boxes. Featuring mostly makeup, keep on reading to see swatches and my thoughts :)

REVIEW | Josie Maran Argan Color Stick

This winter has been the winter of dry cheeks for me. Nothing seems to apply smoothly and blend into my skin well. I've had these Josie Maran Argan Color Sticks for a while now and have been putting them to the test. These argan oil-infused color sticks impart a sheer wash of color over your cheeks and lips for a natural and long-lasting finish.
