top 5 beauty products of march

Hey guys! I'm so excited to share my March favorites with you! I've been using some great products this month, so here we go...

1. Maybelline Color Tattoo 24hr Cream Gel Shadow
Maybelline Color Tatoo 24HR Eyeshadow.Opens in a new window

Whenever I want a strong eyeshadow base with a tad of shimmer, I reach for "too cool". This stuff keeps my eyeshadows in place all day, some thing other cream shadows haven't been able to do. Now, I understand that cream shadows aren't necessarily supposed to keep eyeshadows in place, but I do think they should be able to resist creasing fairly well. "Too cool" does, and I love it!

2. Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer
Maybelline New York Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer, Honey, 0.05 Fluid Ounce
I've used this concealer every single day since I got it and words cannot describe much I love this product. It's very light and you can't feel it on, and it really does brighten your face. I'm in the shade "Radiant", but honestly I think "Ivory" would work even better for me because it's warmer-based. You guys have to try this out, it is uh-MAZE-ing!

3. CoverGirl Lasblast Fusion Mascara
LashBlast Fusion Mascara
I really like this mascara. It lengthens, volumizes, and dramatizes my lashes. My only complaint about this product is by the end of the school day, I notice some flaking, which can get annoying. But it's easily fixed with a little swipe underneath your eyes. Trust me, it's worth it!

4. Rimmel Blush in Pink Sorbet
Lasting Finish Blendable Powder Blush

This has been my go-to everyday blush for the past three-four weeks. I love how light it is and how it gives my skin a gorgeous healthy glow! Definitely one of my top favorites this month!

5. Sinful Colors Nail Polish in "Hazard"
Professional Nail Enamel, 24/7

This is currently my go-to nail color. If I'm too lazy to do a nail design in a hurry I can slap on this color and in one coat it's good-to-go.

What were your March favorites?

sunday spark week 4

I know, my lack of posting around here is getting ridiculous! I do have the final two makeup tutorials in the eye color series ready, so I should be able to get those up over the next few days. But I also have to post my March beauty favorites!

Just a simple nail design today! It took super quick to do, but I have to say I think its one of my favorites! I love the slight gradient effect and I think its perfect for spring/easter.

Welcome to week four of Sunday Spark, where you can start off your week with a spark of inspiration! You can also leave inspiration for others, just enter your link in the linky tool below! It may be a photo of your makeup for the day, it may be a cool manicure you just did. Anything can be inspirational! The only rules are:

You must take the photos/write the post yourself
the post/photo must be something beauty related (this is a beauty blog after all!)
you must include this button in your post:



or link to this blog.

Every Sunday I'll pick my favorite bit of inspiration and feature it on this bloggity-blog. I don't expect to get too many entries the first few weeks, if any, but one is better than nothing ;) So link away, I'd love to see what beauty inspiration you guys have for everyone!





Happy linking!

nail art

when I have nothing to do....
 and when there are acrylic paints sitting on my desk...
 and when there's a clear top coat of nail polish perched on my shelf...
 I do some nail art!
Have you guys ever painted a design on your nails with acrylic paint? Don't worry, it doesn't hurt your nails or anything, and it's much easier to do designs with than actual nail polish.
Show me your nail art, whether you did it with acrylics or nail polish! Maybe we can start a little linky every week, or a contest! Whaddya think?
