Hoola Hoops
Dear Beautiful,
In my Tan about Town set from Benefit, I got a small sample size of Hoola Bronze. I have been meaning to get a new bronzer because I've been using a Sephora one. The one I had was shimmery and very orange. Hoola is completely different. This is a matte bronzer, so there is no shimmer. Though it is matte there is no dry feeling to it. And absolutely no orange undertone. I use it everyday and love it. A great color for my skin tone and has no shimmer in it. This is a great bronzer if you have a very light skin tone. There is no way that you can put on too much and look orange.

Lash Attack
Dear Beautiful,
I have been using my new Lancome Hypnose Drama, everyday with another mascara. Not to say that this mascara isn't amazing on its own, I just prefer to use it in combination with another. Hypnose Drama lengthens your lashes to a beautiful length. And I do wear it alone when I'm going very simple. I do really love very dramatic eyelashes all the time. Big bold beautiful lashes, lol I think I stole that from somewhere. Alone I don't get that, so on top I use Maybelline The Colossal Volum'express, or the yellow tube. This makes you lashes look thick without clumping. Another if used by itself, makes lashes look thick but short and stubby. Together they make amazingness. Thick long lashes.
So how do I do it. Well first I curl my eyelashes. Then I put on Hypnose Drama on my first eye and while that mascara is still wet I put on Colossal Volume. For me it works best if you do the second while the first is wet, so I do each eye at a time. That's how I do it. Some people prefer to wait for the second to dry but I feel like my lashes get clumpy.

Coygirl
Dear Beautiful,
So I told you a little while ago that I got Mac's Coygirl Blush. It's really the only blush I won so I use it everyday. But that's all right because it's a great color that works perfectly with my skin tone. This color is subtle giving me a natural rosy glow. However, currently looking on Mac's website it's nowhere to be found. I don't think it's discontinued I only bought it 3 weeks ago and it's not under the goodbyes section. It's so odd. Though Macy's still has it on it website and I did buy it from a Mac counter in Macy's. Next time I'm at my Mac counter I will ask. For now it's a great blush with light color too it. Perfect for light skin tones, seeing as this isn't a bright color and looks very natural.

Haul #3 Holland
Dear Beautiful,
While in another country I figured I would pick up some make up. I got a few drugstore products, only 3, because drugstore make up isn't cheap there. And when you figure in the conversion it isn't worth it. I wanted a Maybelline mascara because the packaging is more cone like but it was 12 euro which is a whole lot more then it is here. So I got 3 things from Catrice, which I'm guessing is a European country.
-Eyebrow Stylist in 030 'brown-eyed-peas'
- Eyebrow Set
- Made to stay highlighter pen in "eye like it"
That's all I got. I got two brow things because I want to start filling in my brows, there naturally very thing. I'll do a review on the items later.

Sorry as Usual
Dear Beautiful,
Sorry I haven't posted much in February but I had a lot going on. I had tried out and made the NYC international moot court team back in December. There is a lot of work that goes into putting together an argument and I had no time to write blogs much less even get homework done. In January I got a few blogs out in some of the few spare moments I had free. Then in Feb it got super hectic, with packing to leave on Feb 11th and putting all the finishing touches on my argument. But after one of the most amazing weeks in Holland I arrived back yesterday. Now with all the free time that I have, I know I can dedicate more time to this blog. Hope you guys understand.

You Don't Make Sense
Hey Beautiful,
So I don't know if you have heard of the Coastal Scents 88 palette but it's amazing. There are 88 different shades of the rainbow that are super pigmented and its only $20. I know can't be true. There's so many colors that you can do anything with. Perfect for people just beginning with make up or wanting try out bright colors. You can also get 88 neutral palette, though I don't have one for myself so I can't make any promises. But want to know something funny? This palette is super pigmented but there hot pots (single pan shadows) aren't. I thought that the colors in this palette were super pigmented so the hot pots must be too, and it would be awesome because they were so reasonable at just $2 each. They weren't pigmented at all, just a bunch of shimmer. The matte ones, were very chalky and need a lot to get even a light color. So sad. Just thought I'd tell you guys about a great palette and an odd inconsistency in a company.

Mac Attack
Hey Beautiful,
I was in the mall today and stopped by my Mac to pick up two basic things that's for some reason I didn't have. So for some reason I have had the same blush for the past 5 months and I don't like it. Makes no sense right. Today I picked up my first Mac blush in "Coygirl", I love it. This color is a bright muted pink, that's perfect for my super pale skin tone. I also got one of the new Sheen Supreme lipsticks in "Behave Yourself." It's comparable to a lustre lipstick, therefore it doesn't dry out your lips. In the tube it looks like a Barbie pink and on Taylor's lips it is a Barbie pink (we got the same exact lipstick). However on me it looks as if I'm wearing a sparkly lipgloss and I don't like those. But this lipstick is an exception. You don't have the stickyness of a lipgloss and its not too sparkly. Either the way I like the way it looks.
Stay beautiful, Rose
