Pretty in Pink

It's Terrific Tuesday! I played with make-up during my study break and this is what I came up with. I have so much make-up, I might as well put them to good use! I don't have anywhere to go today, but it makes me feel more productive if I put on my face to "get ready" for the day. I feel lazy if I don't look put together, so this is my new approach on tackling each day. This is my mental motivation. What is yours?

Products used:

Face: Rachel K. CC Cream, Glo Minerals Foundation Powder, Mac's Weekend Getaway Creme Blush (Limited Edition)

Eyes: Bare Minerals 'Truth' Quad, Kiss Me Liquid Eye Liner (upper liner only), Benefit Eyebrow Powder (because I have no eyebrows)

Lips: Laura Mercier Lipgloss in Camellia <3

Back from hiatus

I am finally back on! To be honest, I didn't plan to leave for 2 months. I was only planning to take a break to study for my finals, but I ended up forgetting my username! A lot is happening at the moment and it's too complicated to explain. On a brighter note, today is my husband's 29th birthday! It is his 1st celebration with our twins, Jacqueline and Caitlyn. I am looking forward to our dinner date this Saturday at Wolfgang's in the city!  I cannot wait to devour some juicy steak! I have a ton of products I've been trying lately, but let's back track to the spring. I went to the mall a couple of weeks ago to check out Laura Mercier's spring collection and bought 2 lip products. I pick up the lipgloss in 'Camellia' and the new lip print in 'Nude Coral'! The lipgloss has a nice watery consistency with a sweet candy scent. The scent is a bit strong for me, but I could not pass up on this gloss! The name 'Camellia' is very special to me and I just had to have it in my collection. 'Camellia' is a sheer medium Barbie pink with no shimmer. It's not exactly a cream finish, but it can be opaque if you build it up. The lip print is something I've never seen before. I picked up the color 'Nude Coral' and it is how the name describes it to be. The lip print is very light in texture and gives a matte finish. When I first saw it, I didn't expect it to show up on my lips because it looked so sheer swatched on my hand. But when you apply it on your lips, it is a very nice coral. It doesn't look like you have anything on because it looks so natural! The best part about it is that it doesn't feel like anything on your lips! This lip print is definitely a good addition to my collection. I love my new lip products!
