Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette Look 2
Posted on May 15, 2012 | Leave a CommentHere's my second makeup look using the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette! This look features pale golden beige ("Suspect") and dark bronze ("Snakebite"). Since I wanted to come up with something more dramatic, I applied the matte black eye shadow called "Blackout" just inside the outer V to create some depth. I also used my new Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in “Perversion” to line my lower waterline to finish the look. Read more... -
Essie “Mint Candy Apple” Polish and “Pure Pearlfection” Luxeffects Top Coat
Posted on May 3, 2012 | Leave a CommentOn my search for a true mint-colored nail polish, I came across this Essie Nail Polish in "Mint Candy Apple" at my local CVS drugstore a couple months ago. I finally got around to trying it last weekend, and I really love the color! Since I also just got one of the new Essie Luxeffects Top Coats, I applied "Pure Pearlfection" top coat on my ring finger just to try it out. Luxeffects are textured top coats that can be applied on top of any nail color to add dazzle to your nails. Read more... -
Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette Look 1
Posted on April 26, 2012 | Leave a CommentThis is my first makeup look using eye shadows from the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette. I applied the shimmery pale beige-gray color called "Verve" on the center lid to create a glow against the darker brown colors. I also used the travel-size Lip Junkie Lipgloss that comes with this palette. This is an everyday look that works great for both day and night! If you're also a proud owner of the Naked 2 Palette, I'd love to see makeup looks you come up with too! :) Read more... -

Posted on April 18, 2012 | Leave a CommentWhenever I go to the drug store, I'm on the lookout for the latest Sally Hansen nail strip designs.

Check out my previous review on these nail strips for a step-by-step guide on how to apply them! Read more... -
Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette
Posted on April 12, 2012 | 3 CommentsI am a proud owner of the original Naked palette and have made several looks using it, so I wasn't in a rush to buy Naked 2 or any other palette for quite some time. Now that I have Naked 2 (after receiving so many requests about it!), I'm really liking the range of colors and finishes -- possibly even more than the original! Check out the eye shadow swatches, closeups of the double-ended brush, and how the Lip Junkie Lipgloss looks on my lips. Find out if this palette is right for you! Read more...
