MAC: A Tartan Tale



As most of you may already know, MAC has released their holiday collections. These collection are definitely worth buying. With the brush collections, you get FIVE travel sive brushes (Which, if you ask me, are much easier to work with if you havent gotten used to the regular sixed brushes). The collections range from face brushes to eye brushes and then a mixture of both. For the last brush collection, I purchased the eye brushes, so this collection I purchased the mixed collection of brushes. I was undecided between the mixture or face collections and ended up making a blind-folded choice. LOL. I seriously did though.

To the right is the brush collection that I purchased.

187SE- Can be used to apply cream and liquid foundations and works well to buff in powders
168SE- Angled blush brush
252SE- larger shader brush
219SE- Pencil brush
And it comes with a cute bag inspired by the Scottish!!


I also purchased one of the eye collections which also comes with the little bag. It's the 'Violet My Love LAsh and Line Kit

In it you'll receive::
A pigment-violet
A fluidline -macroviolet
Mini Zoom LAsh mascara
and a mini liner brush


You can purchase the eye kit here
And you can purchase the brush collection here
Hope you enjoyed this bit of information and as always, stay blessed.

Dem a Bleach!

I have been browsing different social sites these past few days and I have noticed a lot of girls are bleaching the color of their skin in order to become lighter in complexion. I really don’t understand why people would want to do such a thing. I mean, there are so many affects of these bleaching creams that aren’t good for the skin.. Hydroquinone is one of the primary topical creams for “skin lightening”. It prevents melanin form being produced. Melanin, for those of you who aren’t aware, is responsible for the coloring of skin. Why are you messing up what is good for you??
UGH!
But on to a lighter note..
I’m going to start blogging religiously..
Even if if has NOTHING to do with makeup, fashion, hair, nails, etc
OH WELL.
:]
Bye Lovies!

Night out on the town

Ready for a night out on the town. One that has been anticipated for quite a while. Mind you, im supposed to be getting ready, but I figured a quick jot of my thoughts won’t do me any harm. Today I came across something that , at one point in time would have caused me to go ballistic, but I can honestly say that I have really matured. Either that, or I’m simply just fed up with the bullshit that people keep dishing out to me as if it were my only source of vitamin intake.
Sorry, but I’ll wait for the next entrĂ©e
Have a good one lovies! :]
