Blogmas Day 19: Holiday Lip products!

 
 
With the holidays here, I'm sure everyone is celebrating all month long. You know with holiday parties, decorating and baking! Everyone has their own way of getting into the holiday spirit. Some dress up and others wear makeup. As I have said before I am not really a lipstick person nor do I regularly use lip products. Unless it's one that I really love. A couple of years ago I talked about the Kate Moss Rimmel London Lipstick. If you want to check out my first review on this click here Rimmel London: Kate Moss Lipstick. Trying this lipstick for the second time was a much better experience for me. Although I really liked it the first time, applying it was difficult for me. If you're laughing at me I get it, it's pretty funny. I was clueless when it came to applying lipstick. Compared to the first time this color does not intimidate me as much. It's still bold but it's more subtle than I thought it was. This lipstick is very pigmented and it applies on the lips very easily! If you're going to a party and you want to make a bold statement, this lipstick is great for that. If you're simple like me, a neutral eye look would be gorgeous paired with this. But if you're some who like dramatic and wants to go all out, pairing this lipstick with a smoky eye would look fierce. A winged eyeliner would also go great! The color is Rossetto and this is not matte, which means it doesn't dry. 
 
The other lip product is simple, but it's a two for one deal! The e.l.f. lip and cheek duo stix comes in the color Rose and it's a matte and shimmer finish. The colors are pretty and although you can use this on the lips by itself, I would recommend pairing it with a more bold lipstick or gloss. The Lip and cheek duo is not glossy or shiny. The shimmer side does not show up well for me, I can't really see the shimmer at all. In certain spots there's a little, but not really. If you tried this you will probably get better results because everyone is different. Overall I do like this product, it's not one that I love by itself but it's good. Again for a holiday party simple look, I would leave it as is and pair with a simple eye look. If you're dramatic add on a bolder lipstick or gloss to this product, so it can be shiny and a smoky look. 
 
I hope you enjoyed reading and let me know your favorite festive lipsticks or glosses!

Being a blogger is not easy at all, whether it's a hobby or a job. Every blogger works so hard to put out quality work. But sometimes it can be a struggle. While in a blogging rut I came across a lot of posts that have helped me gain confidence. These posts also helped me realize my creativity; all I needed to do was use my noggin! But before you click on the links below, I'm going to explain what these links mean to me. I don't want to bore you but I'm hoping these will help you too.   Everytime I get into a blogging rut I always look at my blog design. Thinking that the design I have is always the problem, I go and I spend money to change it. In reality the major problem was myself. Now don't get me wrong, designs I've had were beautiful it just wasn't for me. During my long "break" or breakdown I did a lot of searching. I'm pretty sure you all heard of Etsy, am I right? This is where I found two shops that have helped me tremendous...

Is there a guide to blogging?

It's been 3 months since I started blogging and I already have 57 followers and I am so grateful and thankful. In a million years I would have never imagined being a blogger. But sometimes I do not feel like one. I mean I know being a successful and known blogger doesn't happen overnight, but sometimes I get discouraged. I have always been someone who is cautious and worries about what people think, so sometimes I feel no one will like what I post. I also feel like, because I am not a well known blogger no one will take the time and give me a chance. I am just being myself, is there something wrong with that? So I started feeling lost and I didn't know what to do; then I thought "Is there a guide to blogging?". Not only did I have these thoughts, but I was also thinking that there are so many wonderful bloggers (beauty, fashion, and lifestyle), so who would even notice my blog. So is there a book to teach people how to blog or am I just overreacting? Sometim...

Color Theory:8 Piece Ultimate Eyeliner Set

I love Eyeliner; eyeliner is my go to look. Anytime I had eyeliner my eyes would look like their dressed up! The only eyeliner I have ever wore up until this point was black; because that was the only color I thought was out (crazy of me right?!) Anyway lately I've seen many girls wear different color eyeliner, mainly on YouTube; so I knew immediately I would have to try it. After a while I forgot all about them, until Christmas of 2012 when I received them. I was so excited because my Mom didn't even know I wanted them; now that I am thinking I didn't even ask!  Now I can match up the colors with eyeshadow. Enough of that here's the box they came in and I have the colors listed below. On the back it just talks about the different styles you can do with the eyeliners. For example: The famous winged look (instructions for it are on the back).                                ...
