Less is MORE. Barely any make up with lots of make up

 Is less really more?Is more actually..less?  When I was younger, I thought having bright, fancy stellar make up was the way to go & as I grow older, yes...OLDER, I like wearing neutrals and stay away from anything bright. Kind of reminds me of Myspace and Facebook. Back in the days it was all about bright, neon, customized myspace and now facebook. Sure it's kind of boring, it just kind of fits the mold without any customization. It's simple and has a more mature setting about it. Maybe, we're not supposed to Myspace our face and customize it, perhaps all along, you're just supposed to Facebook it. Keep it simple & user...

Geisha Face

So I got really excited my new camera finally came!! In addition to my new camera, I also bought Coastal Scent's 88 Color Palette so I gave it a spin. What inspired this Geisha look was our Marine friend LCPL Castillo because he was just in Japan & my co worker's red eyebrows really put the thought in my head. Luckily, Coastal Scents has an awesome rainbow of colors in the palette & since people don't generally use the red, we should! Just FYI, doing this was very very simple, much easier than doing regular makeup. The keys to achieving this look:-White e/s -Red e/s-Black e/s-MAC's 219 brush-MAC's 263 brush-Duo eyelash glue-Sephora...

Collective Haul & Video

THE MAC ATTACK! So few items, so many dollars! I actually haven't bought from MAC in awhile. I'm not really a BRAND whore. As in, I don't commit to just one brand or have any favorite brands for that matter. I guess I have favorite brands for specific things but in all things even my wardrobe to accessories, I'm a fan of diversity. I believe each brand has it's own "thing" and there are too many wonderful "things" out there to just be married to one brand. Not knockin' on anyone who is committed to certain brands, just my philosophy ;) Pictured above is:  Plushglass "Ample Pink" Cremesheen "Ever Hip" & Mineralize Blush "Warm Soul" I...

Orogold & Shopping With Cha Cha Teaser

 So this past weekend, miss cha cha & I went SHOPPING at the Santa Anita Mall (huge, confusing mall it is!)! I am going to be putting up a haul video/pics of all the junk we bought & a review/see it in action video on OROGOLD. So what is OROGOLD? Never heard of it? Maybe you've seen their cart or store and didn't pay it any mind, only noticed it's Paris Hilton look-alike in a mascarade ball mask? In the Los Cerritos Center they have a cart but all I ever noticed was the Paris Hilton look-alike--not very appealing. For some reason, most mall carts that sell do not appeal to me, they actually turn me off because I feel like as I'm...

Good Cause Leads to Death

Ok so the day started out with great intentions... I was hitting up the Walk For Autism 2011 with Melinda & it went really well. It was great to see how many supporters came out this year & it seems like the crowd is growing each and every year. I'm a supporter for this cause because of a few students I have worked with in the past and they have touched my hearts. If you don't know too much about Autism or what you can do, go ahead and visit: www.autismspeaks.com Show your support because you'll never know when Autism will hit close to home until it's too late.After our brisk 5mile walk and great activities we were starvo the clown!!...
