ELF cosmetics

Hey girls and boys....


So, I know that you've at least heard talk of ELF cosmetics. Eyes Lips and Face. Well...I was a bit skeptical...because 80% of their cosmetics are $1.00!!! Imagine. Yeah, so...again, I'm thinking dollar cosmetics equal dollar store results....NOT!!!
I did a couple of reviews on their products. Some are fantastic!!! Some, not so much...but then again, that goes for everything...doesn't it??? I've tired some MAC that I didn't care for...AT ALL....(eehheemmm...eye primer).
ELF website



All I'm saying is give it a go. What will you be out of?? $1.00???? LOL...They are having a sale right now, on their mineral products (I did my review on these, check them out) and I would sooooo recommend you pick up a couple of them, along with the mineral eyeshadow primer. If you love UDPP, you will certainly love this...and especially for $3 with 40% off!!!!

Here's my review on YouTube.
Check it out, lemme know what you think!!!

Sole Mates!!

Hi there boys and girls!!

In case you hadn't noticed, I, Dyna, am a complete and total shoe-whore. That's right. My name is Dyna and I'm a shoe-hoe!! I love them!!! Specifically, my stilettos!!! What's sexier than a pair of skinny heels with jeans, a skirt, a dress, NOTHING!!! LOL...

A problem that I found myself having is that I would always manage to stride myself right into cracks in the sidewalk...scuffing my lovelies, not cool. Take a look at what I found online...
They are called Sole Mates, and they go right over your heels to keep them from scuffing, and also, to give you a bit more balance. After all, one too many martinis, and those stilettos feel like toothpicks!! Check em out and lemme know how they work for you.

XOXO
-D

By the way, did I tell you that Steve Madden is having a huge sale??? Just in time for the Sole Mates.

Barry M cosmetics...

Hey boys and girls.


So, I was doing my usual youtube.com perusing and I was checking out a look by my girl panacea81 (Laruen Luke). She was doing a look with a fantastically pigmented color by Barry M. Whoa...the colors are fantastic, and the prices are not that bad. Check some of these out...


Bright Blue


Cherry Red


Parrot Green

There are amazing lip paints and glosses, but the pigments and the glitters are what got me. They seem to be located in Europe...but you can of course make online purchases. Check some out and come back and let us know how they work for you!!

XOXO

Kissable Couture Lipgloss Review..


Honesty, Eric and Exposed color swatches.

I ordered lipgloss from a new website..www.kissablecouture.com

I picked up 4 of them... the packaging is so pretty..I purchased Honesty,First Lady,Exposed and Eric.

I will give my most honest opinion.
1. I'm really glad I received a discount on the purchase (I received a 40% discount at the time of purchase)
2. Not a high shine gloss
3. It smells good
4. the packaging..It's a pretty black box with silver writing and a pretty black ribbon
5. I've had drugstore brands that had a longer staying power
6. I had to re-apply more frequently than I have with others.
7. Would I purchase again? To mix with another clear gloss to give it the staying power.
the swatches are above ( I am an HD 177 foundation wearer/ MAC NC 45)

So take a moment today to check out these products that we will have to part ways with...and stock up if some of them are your absolute faves...

Next, my first love...shoes!!!
