Stylish Black Fringe Decoration Clutches | Spaghetti Strap Glitter Bodycon Dress | Lapel Designed Plain Woolen Wrap Coat | Hollow Out Rhinestone Drop Earrings | Simple Style Rhinestone Bracelet |

Green Plaid Round Neck Bodycon Dress | Vintage Tassels Squared Crystal Earring | Burgundy Messager Crossbody Bag | Black Single Button Blazer |

• Change your boring, but so cozy and cute Christmas sweater to a sexy green bodycon dress.

Desert Rose | Makeup Tutorial For Brown Eyes

Have you ever heard about desert roses and their unique nature? Desert rose is a name of a rare crystal formation. It is a very beautiful sand rock, that 'grows' in desert regions. Today's makeup was inspired by the cold calm colors, sharp edges and mystery of this extraordinary sand phenomenon. You can learn how to create this easy makeup for brown eyes, just follow this step by step tutorial and give your eyes a lovely makeover. 

1. Start your makeup with an eyeshadow primer, apply the product all over your eyelid and blend with a help of your ring finger. Eyeshadow primer will help eyeshadow to last all day long. Shape and fill in your eyebrows.

2. Highlight the brow bone and the inner corner of your eyes using a light rose gold eyeshadow with shimmer. Apply a very light brown matte eyeshadow on the crease.

3. Start to apply matte truffle color on the crease, blend it with a soft blending brush. 

4. Applydusty rose color on the eye lid. I've used matte eyeshadow, but you can use satin or shimmer finish for the lid. 

5. Tightline your eyes - apply a black eye kohl pencil on the top and bottom waterline. Draw a beautiful wing using liquid or gel eyeliner. 

6. Curl the lashes and apply a few coat of your favorite mascara. Add some false lashes to finish up this makeup for brown eyes and you're done!

You can even use this eye makeup as an everyday look, just don't make your eyeliner too dramatic. I like to pair this look with a nude lipstick and dewy skin finish. I hope you liked this makeup, I had so much fun creating it. Until next time!

Lots of love,

Iridescent Nail Polish Collection By Born Pretty Store | Review & Swatches

Hello lovelies! I don't know about you, but I slowly started to prepare myself for winter time, slowly changing my lipstick and nail polish colors. In the cold time of a year, during late autumn and winter I love to wear dark and cold colors. But few days ago I receive a package with Iridescent Nail Polish Collection*, kindly sent to me by Born Pretty Store. These colors aren't dark and gloomy, but very mystical and unique, they remind me of a newly-fallen snow and its mild iridescent glow. I thought that winter is a good time for such experiment and today I'm going to review this collection for you.

The Iridescent Nail Polish Collection features five unique colors: P001 'Moonstone' - beautiful and mysterious blue shade, that looks exactly like a famous moonstone gem, P002 'Lotus In Moonlight' - soft peachy pink shade with very fine glitter, P003 'Only You' - pinkish shade with magenta glow, P004 'Jade Sky' - lime green duochrome color and P005 'Moonsky Glow' - yellowish shade with champagne brilliance. All of these beautiful colors are truly unique, they are translucent and change their undertones and glow depending on lightning and the color of the base nail polish.

The application of the nail polish is awesome, the consistency is not runny or thick, so the nail polish glides on and perfectly covers the nail. The nail polish brush is more on the thicker side and it makes the application process even easy and fast, covering the whole nail in one swipe. The nail polish dries in no time and you can transform the finishing color by applying different bases. For example, to get deep and intense color with shiny, almost metallic finish apply this nail polishes over the black or very dark color. You can also apply them alone, but I suggest you to apply few thin coats for the best result.

In a nutshell, I love this nail polish and highly recommend checking out this collection by Born Pretty Store. Even though I'm more 'matte' girl and love to wear simple and plain colors on my nails I fell in love with all these shades. The price is very nice, one bottle of this gorgeous nail polish retails at $3.59 and you can choose your favorite color here.

City Color Be Matte Liquid Lipstick 'Homeslice' | Review & Swatches

Hi lovelies! There is nothing better to me than a good dark bold lip, especially if it is matte and long-lasting. Recently I had a great opportunity to try out gorgeous liquid matte lipstick from Be Matte collection by City Color Cosmetics. The collection was released in eight beautiful shades ranging from light and innocent nudes to a dark reds and my favorite purple. Today I'm going to review mysterious shade called 'Homeslice' - bold and beautiful matte grape color, intensely pigmented and long-lasting.

The formula of Be Matte Liquid Lipstick is definitely incredible. The product easily glides on the lips and dries to matte finish almost in no time, but stays a little bit tacky. The texture is velvety, feels very lightweight and comfortable on the lips, though it can feel dry. The color payoff of 'Homeslice' is deep and intense, I like to apply a very generous amount of the product for a full coverage. But, of course, the brightest feature of Be Matte Lipstick is its longevity! This lippie lasts ages on the lips and you can eat, drink and even kiss without a fear of smudging your makeup. The formula is so long-lasting that you even need a special makeup remover for waterproof makeup to remove it later. 

And as always, few commendable words about the incredible scent of the lipstick. It has the most yummy smell of fresh baked pastry - a little bit of chocolate and vanilla. I know that people do not buy makeup products because of their sweet scent, but t is always nice to apply cosmetics that smell nice. I also want to mention a very unique hourglass shaped applicator, it is bendy and provides a perfect control over the application process and I find it very comfortable.

Wondering how to apply Be Matte Liquid Lipstick by City Color? First of all  recommend you to prepare your lips - exfoliate them with a soft scrub or toothbrush. Matte lipsticks tend to dry out the lips, so it is always nice to apply hydrating lip balm before you are going to apply matte lipstick. Don't forget to line your lips with a lip liner, especially if you color of choice is dark. To make your lip makeup neat and precised use a little bit of your foundation or concealer and clean up the edges of your lips. You can also apply a very fine layer of matte eyeshadow or translucent powder over the lipstick to set it and reduce the tacky feeling.

If you are on the hunt after a good matte lipstick with a long-lasting formula and a nice choice of colors, I'd definitely recommend checking out Be Matte collection. You can pick your favorite shade here at official City Color website. And I would like to say a big thanks to City Color and Brand Backer for allowing me to try out and make my own opinion about these lippies. Are you ready to stay matte?

Becca Sunchaser Palette | Review & Swatches

Do you love to have bronzed skin, but your hard-earned summer tan disappeared? Don't worry about that, because a well-chosen cheek palette will help you to return your beloved sun-kissed skin. Today I'm going to talk about Becca Sunchaser Palette: a beautiful trio of beach-inspired blush, highlighter and bronzer that will help you to recreate a healthy glow. This palette were nicely sent to me by Glam Express - one of my favorite platform for beauty enthusiasts. I have become a Spotlight Member of September and Glam Express community gave me this palette as a gift. So without further ado, let's proceed to the review.

The Sunchaser Palette features three gorgeous colors for your cheeks: 'Ipanema Sunset' -  a medium brown bronzer, 'Apricot Blossom' - peachy pink mineral blush and 'Opal' shimmering metallic pressed highlighter. The middle shade Apricot Blossom is marvelously decorated with Becca logo. I want to mention that all these three colors remind me very much of famous Naked Flushed contouring palette by Urban Decay. Even the weight of each shade from the palette is approximately the same. The fill weight of Naked Flushed Palette is 0,49 oz ( 14g) and the fill weight of Sunchaser Palette is 0,42 oz (12g).

All pigments are finely grounded and feel smooth and silky on the skin. They beautifully blend and give a desirable sun-kissed effect. Some people were complaining about bronzer, claiming that it was too harsh and dark. I have a very light complexion and can't complain about 'Ipanema Sunset', I just wish the shade was a little bit colder. 'Apricot Blossom' is absolutely gorgeous color and to be honest I'm tempted to try it out on my eyes, together with 'Opal'. The surface of the skin so polished after you finish to contour your cheeks.

How to use the Becca Cosmetics Sunchaser Palette? After you are done with your regular foundation routing and set it with translucent powder you can start to contour your cheeks. I prefer to start with 'Ipanema Sunset' and apply it under the cheekbones, gently blending it with a medium angled brush. Then I apply blush directly above the contouring and highlight the cheekbones to give my face a natural dimension.

Overall, I loved the Sunchaser Palette by Becca, the colors are pigmented and versatile. The design of the palette is amazing, you can take this trio with you on vacation or use it on a daily basis. At the moment Becca Sunchaser Palette retails at $58.00, but speaking frankly I don't think the price is justified. Of course the product is great and I liked it very much, but you can find a very similar and cheaper dupe. Until the next time ♥

Lots of love,
