Hologram Glitz

Hello Gorgeous Ones!,

I'm back and have I got a goody for you..Glitter!..YES!..I love it..actually I'm obsessed with it, but anyways, this little pot-o-joy comes from the cosmetics maker Body-Bling, so now on to the lowdown..Here we go:

Product: Bare Pigment High Glitter Eye Shadow

Color: Hologram Glitz*

*see store location at the bottom of this review for other available colors

Pros/Cons: All Natural Mineral Ingredients, Non-Irritating & safe for the most sensitive eyes, FDA Approved, can also be used as an additive to lip gloss, body lotions, nail polish or liquid eyeliners

**How to use as an eye shadow**

Ok, this one is a super-fine loose glitter pigment, so it works best for me when I used it with Body Bling's Super Bonding Glitter Eye Glue, which will make it stay put on your eye-lids..AAAALLLL Day :)

Price: $2.99 for 1.5 grams (about a Tablespoon-full)

Where to Buy: http://stores.ebay.com/SHOP-BODY-BLING?_trksid=p2047675.l2563

or search ebay.com sellers SHOP BODY BLING or *body-bling*

My Verdict: Excellent! 5-Stars..Awesome-ness in a jar! Make no mistake, these are excellent products of the highest grade & just because the prices are low doesn't mean that the quality is bad...The product goes a long way so only a small amount is needed when using any of these. I have purchased many products from Body Bling & I have yet to be disappointed..and If you don't believe me, take a look for yourself..

My Favorite MUA's

Hello Beautiful Ones,

I figured that it is time to pay homage to my favorite Make Up Artists (MUA's), I've always been into makeup but these gals inspired me to take it to a whole new level..they raised the bar and believe me it was hard to pick because there are so many awesome MUA's that a person could go bonkers even attempting to do what I am about to..and that is to begin with the one that started it all for me.. Here we go:

 MUA Klaire De Lys

This is the first makeup tutorial that I had ever watched on Youtube and it sent me straight down the rabbit hole & I'm happy to say that I've never been the same since..

Midnight Vampage (Right->)

 Chrisspy...

I have learned soooo much from these talented & gorgeous chicas..different application techniques, different products/tools to use to achieve whatever look I want, in order to transform myself! These women truly rock! They inspired me to raise the bar on how I utilized my cosmetics & the tools I use to apply them & for that, I will forever be one of their many fans! So I urge you to check these MUA's out on Youtube & on Facebook, because I can guarantee you, if they inspired me, then they will inspire you too!

Until next time,

M.R.
