Red Lipstick & Champagne Dreams: December 2011

Nail of the week: L.A. Colors Nail Lacquer Hardener

I just wanted to share my nails for today. This nail polish is from L.A. Colors. This is one of my favorite colors. I always find myself wearing pink nail polish, I really need to branch out. I really like this nail polish. Like with any other polish you will need to use Top Coat otherwise it will not last long.

Bold Lips Neutral Eyes: The Latest Lips Trend

This season I think a must would be to try at least once the bold lips trend. I think that when it comes to adding boldly beautiful colors to our lips, many girls shy away. There is nothing wrong it! I know that for myself I have always usually forgotten to put anything on my lips or just didn't want to draw any attention to them.

However I have been really trying to use many different colors. I love having a neutral makeup look and let the lips do the talking! So today I bring to you my FOTD. With a very neutral and awesome dark red lips. This color reminds me of vampires, maybe because the old school vampire movies they make them look dark and weird in a way.

Anyways, have tried tried this trend yet?

Wet N' Wild Lipstick: Just Garnet (552A)

I am so in love with this lipstick. I got it a couple of weeks ago and can't stop wearing it. It's a deep red and it goes on so smoothly. I have been seen a trend lately of red lips, but not necessarily bright red, more like a plum color. So while searching for the perfect color at my local drugstore I found this one. Beautiful and affordable!


Red lips can be a bit of a stretch for some people. I know that I wasn't one to wear red lips until I discovered my FAVORITE red lipstick from M.A.C. which is Ruby Woo.  Would you wear red lips? What's YOUR favorite red lipstick?

L'Oreal True Match Foundation

After trying many different types of foundations, I would have to say that hands down this is THE best foundation for me! I just love how smooth my skin gets when I use it. Since giving birth a year ago my skin has been acting up and I have some spots still left over from the acne I got while pregnant. With L'Oreal's True Match Foundation I am able to cover those dark spots pretty well before even applying any concealer! It has a beautiful finish and it blends perfectly!!! Now what is YOUR go-to foundation and why?
