Family Dollar

So I went in family dollar n came across some L.A. Colors Cosmetic products and a NYC lip stick. Now i always use L.A. Colors lip glosses and blushes.. But now they have brushes (So Soft) and something told me to try their lighter liquid foundation as a highlight. Also they have a press powder but the shade that caught my eye was more of a brown/pinky kind of color so I'm going to use it as a blush. REMEMBER NO MATTER WHAT PRODUCTS YOU BUY, YOU DON'T HAVE TO USE IT FOR WHAT ITS MADE FOR. I use eye shadows as blushes, bronzers as eye shadows. BE CREATIVE AND MIX AND MATCH!

The L.A. Colors blush has a lot of fall out and the NYC lip stick is nice and creamy but not that pigmented. Every item i brought was under $3.


Oh and another thing, I'm loving the Covergirl Queen collection press powder for everyday use with just concealer.

MAC Mineralize Skinfinish

So MAC Mineralize Skinfinish seems to be best for the job of applying after your liquid foundation to set you foundation or even just use by itself. I took it upon myself to search for a cheaper product that does the same or close to what MAC Mineralize Skinfinish ($27.00 at a MAC store) can do...
I normally use Ruby Kisses HD Setting Powder ($3.99 local beauty supply store) or Black Opal Oil Blotting Powder ($7.65 Walmart) but now I came across Maybelline Dream Matte Powder ($6.94 Walmart) and sofar it works just like the Skinfinish but it helps more with the oil on my face then the Skinfinish does.

Fusion Extentions

Back when I was 19 my dad treated to fusion extentions and I was in love with it but my dad said it cost to much money for me to keep getting it done.

After Tammy from basketball wives had her extentions I had clients come to me wanted it done.. So I learned on my own. And that is my new thing now that my hair it growing back n its long enough to cover the glue nots.

Ruby Kisses

So if your following me or know me personally then you know that I love almost everything Milani but for about a year now I've been using a few things from Ruby Kisses. Now! I always pass by their foundations and powders and go straight for their liners, bronzers and nail polish. But now I have tried their face corrector and no more blemish liquid foundation. LET ME TELL YOU! I am in love.

And their cream eye liners are great for an eye shadow base. Also primer is great too
