Going Gray?  Chanel Particuliere Nail Lacquer

Last week, I reviewed the majority of Chanel's Spring collection, which includes three new nail lacquers, but I only reviewed Inattendu and Tendresse and was missing Particuliere ($23.00), which is easily the more interesting shade of the three (Inattendu...

Natural Makeup with MAC Warm & Cozy

As promised, here's a quick look I did using a bunch of Warm & Cozy products! I used Comfort mineralize skinfinish as a blusher in the first set of full-face pictures more to show you what it looks like on (and why I'm not keen on it) -- I often do my best to use as...

China Glaze Christmas-themed Nails

As I mentioned this morning on Twitter, I did a Christmas-y theme on my nails with China Glaze Ruby Pumps and Emerald Sparkle. I just alternated the colors for my theme :)  I used Zoya's Color-Lock System for base, top, and drying coats!

I'd love to know if you've been...

MAC Warm & Cozy Collection: Round-up

OVERALL, Warm & Cozy is a nice collection to see in the dreary, cold winter season. It's not my favorite launch ever, and if you aren't into the shades, there's not much to do about it. It's like the lipsticks, lipglasses, and...

MAC Warm & Cozy Collection: Lipglasses

At first glance, I thought I would be really in love with the lipglasses, but they weren't as much my cup of tea as I had hoped. My favorite was definitely Light That Fire, while 2N was next.

MAC Warm & Cozy Collection: Lipsticks

I was pleasantly surprised by the texture and coverage of both Siss and Warm Me Up. Siss is permanent, by the way, so you don't have to rush out and purchase that one if it catches your eye and you're on a budget. (I...

MAC Warm & Cozy Collection: Tinted Lip Conditioners

Even though I really like the feel of MAC's Tinted Lip Conditioner (creamy and hydrating), I'm not keen on the delivery/packaging. I wish they'd release more Tinted Lip Conditioner *Sticks* instead of the...
