Fall Fridays: Holiday Purple Smokey Eyes

 

 

Its not a secret that I love Smokey Eyes there is something about them that make me feel different.  If you been reading my blog you know that most of the time I stick to neutral eyeshadow, but once in a while I do love wearing color and purple is one of my favorite ones.  Purple works great with my Brown Eyes and helps them stand out, I do not own lot of colored eyeshadows since I love my neutrals but here is what I came up with using what I had and I loved the end result.

I wanted to share with you the makeup that I had on during the Thanksgiving Dinner, I loved how simple and but looked well put together.  I also love how fast it was to get on it literally took me 20 minutes to get it done.  

Don't you just love quick easy makeup? I know I do 

Michael Todd True Organics Final Update

When I began this system I had high hopes, I really believed that it would help my acne go away and stay away.  As you an see although my acne has been less over the past 3 weeks at the beginning of this regimen my acne was horrible worse than it had ever been.  I had huge break outs in my cheeks and chin, they were so big and hurt so bad that lots of nights I cried my self to sleep because of the pain I felt.  As I mention in my update post here I contacted Customer Service to get help trying to figure out what was going on, and we came to the conclusion that the Charcoal Detox Deep Pore Gel Cleanser was drying my skin out and was causing my breakouts.  They sent over a new Cleanser that to be honest I've used once and my face got so red that I didn't want to use it again.

After that day I decided to use my Olay Cleansers along with the Jojoba Charcoal Scrub, toner, and Kaolin Clay Detoxifying Mask. With the cleansers along with the products from the kit my skin has been getting clear and feels so much better. 

I have to say that I will not repurchase the whole system I will most likely repurchase the Scrub along with the Mask.  Other than that I will continue to use what I am currently using until my skin gets used to it.  I must add that I have been using the Garnier Skin Renew Dark Spot Corrector to help out with the dark spots that were left on my cheeks and chin from the breakouts I had.  

Thanks for stopping by, 

November Favorites

Lorac Behind The Scenes Eye Primer , Pixi Correction Concentrate

This are my most used products this past month of November.  I could not be more happy with my Pixi Corrector I discovered it thanks to Emilynoel83 she mentioned it in one of her videos and at the time I was looking for a salmon colored concealer for my under eye circles.   I also have been using my Lorac Eyeshadow Primer, I got it with my Lorac Pro Pallet and at the time I just put it away and forgot about it.  I rediscovered it and I love it my eyeshadow doesn't crease at all, and I have worn makeup for up to 10 hours and my eyeshadow stays put.

What have you been loving this month ?

Black Friday

Black Friday Haul by yamilethf featuring a wool coat

 

I did a little Black Friday Shopping to take advantage of some really good sales and well to add a couple of items to my Fall/Winter wardrobe.  With this items and a others that I just purchased last month I should be set for the rest of the cold months. 

The only thing that I'm missing is a great pair of Black Leggings, but I wont buy them unless there at a great price.
