Smashbox Santigold Summer Collection

So the other day, I walked into my job (Sephora) and my co-worker walked up to me mentioning the new Smashbox collection we just got in. Not being the biggest fan of smashbox( though I am loving my exposure pallet)  I payed it( brushed it off) until she showed me the lipstick ring. From there I ran to Smashbox and stared in awe at how beautiful this collection is. After swatching everything on my hand(, I just knew I had to get multiple things from this collection. I love the gold lip gloss as "topping" to a pretty lipstick. It is similar to YSL's gold carrot lip gloss and I also adore the double sided liners. What really surprised me at how good it was, were the two eye shadow pallets OH EM GEE the both were so pigmented, so nice, and a perfect blend of mattes and shimmers, I will be purchasing both. I like the idea of the lipstick ring but I'm not sure if I am ready to pay $40 for it. I do wish Smashbox came out with a blush I feel like I would like to see more blushes from them but aside from that, I give this collection an A.

Product Review: MAC Modern Mandarin



Not too long ago MAC released their tres cheek collection consisting of 4 or 5 new blushes. I saw Modern Mandarin and knew immediately that I had to have it. I zoomed to the MAC store, tried it on and fell in love. At first glance, you don't notice the sparkles but once you apply it gives a beautiful glowy finish( it is a Satin textured blush). It's a little lighter than I expected but I still love it.

OOTD- cold,Spring day

It was so cold in Baltimore today I could not and still cannot believe the weather we have been receiving in the DMV( DC,MD,Va) area. It's Spring time but it's been snowing and super chilly. Today, I decided to dress both Spring and cold weather attire by pairing my neon coral sweater from Forever 21 with my black Skater Skirt from Forever 21. I accessorized with a necklace from Francesca's and my tights are from GAP. I wore my black, Steve Madden boots and carried my black Tory Burch Ella Tote( not pictured).

Hope you enjoyed 😘
