Viva Glam Nicki 2!

I purchased this the day it came out. I owned the first Viva Glam Nicki lipstick and lipgloss but I ended up returning the lipstick. I hated it on me but I loved the gloss.

This looked way better than the first one so I was sold even before it was released. Also, it reminded me of MAC Pink Friday which I never got my hands on so I jumped at the opportunity.


Viva Glam Nicki 2 is a purple blue based lipstick. 


I am wearing both gloss and lipstick in this one. My feelings are mixed on the lipstick. For some reason, I feel like it doesn't work on me. I don't know if it's because of my tan skin or my lip shape. I can't point it but I don't like how it looks on me. I can't make it work. Debating if I should return it or not

I do however LOVE the gloss. I love the purple/pink pastel .

I feel like Nicki Minaj in her "Va Va Voom" video while wearing this on my lips haha

My MAC 15 Eyeshadow palette

Hello, ladies...and gents. I hope everyone is having a great weekend!
I saw "Identity Thief" with this guy that I've been seeing for a month last night ;) haha. It was a great movie. I am so fond of Jason Bateman, that's why I decided to see it and it's because the trailer looked hilarious. You should see it when you get the chance.

But anyway, I have finally completed my MAC 15 eyeshadow palette!
That took awhile.

I started collecting MAC eyeshadows in 2010. I started buying them in a pot form but then I think around March 2011 I purchased an empty case palette and bought 4 eyeshadows in a refill pan form and I just started collecting and building my palette

2 years later... I finally completed my first MAC 15 eyeshadow palette!  Yay me
It took me such a long time because I was in love with Urban Decay eyeshadows and I bought most of their palettes.



From left to right 
Row 1 : Gesso, Ricepaper, Nylon, Dazzlelight, Brule
Row 2: Amber Lights, Poison Pen, Soft Brown, Sable, Espresso
Row 3: Contrast, Coppering, Stars and Rockets, Beauty Marked, Carbon


I have more but they are in a quad form or pot form. I am thinking about buying a new palette case and depot all my eyeshadows...but then I really dislike the new MAC palette packaging so I'm debating

Nylon is my favorite highlighter! Can't you tell? haha


Thanks for looking!

WHATS YOUR FAVORITE MAC EYESHADOW?

MAC Archie's Girls FOTD

I was thinking about picking up this collection. I was looking at the swatches and most of the lipsticks got me. 
Originally, I was going to pick up Betty Bright, Daddy's Little Girl,Ronnie Red and Girl Next Door but when I went to my local MAC counter, everything was sold out and I only got my hands on Girl Next Door . Bummer. 
The rest of the collection didn't really catch my eye.





The lipstick was a lustre and a little bit too sheer for my liking but it's a perfect baby pink for everyday look. Not too bold but not too boring.

By the way, I used OPI Alpine Snow on my nails in case you're wondering

I used -

FACE:
Smashbox Photolight Primer
MAC Face and Body C4
MAC Harmony
MAC Pro Long Concealer in NW20
MAC Prep and Prime Transparent Finishing Powder
MAC Pearl Cream Color Base

EYES:
Lorac Behind the Scenes Primer

-Tease, Black Out
Lorac Pro Palette
-Sable, Champagne
MAC Blacktrack fluidline
MAC Pearl Cream Color Base
