Bad Gal RiRi

I'm NOT a fan of Rihanna's IDGAF attitude 

Her cyber bullying disgusts me 

She's a gorgeous girl with a great career but it's obvious she's insecure. I feel that all women - especially those as beautiful as RiRi should be able to compliment and uplift other women, Ri is always running her mouth cursing somebody out via social network and it reveals nothing but insecurity. Now I know many people "Stan" for Ri and that catty attitude of hers will totally disagree with me and that's fine BUT this is my damn blog and I'm expressing MY opinion! 

She needs to chill....

Anyhoo her new MAC collection is to die for and she looks absolutely amazing on the November cover of Glamour magazine.






Fun Fact: I luh me some matte lipstick! 



L-R Nude. Who's That Chick. RiRi Woo. Talk That Talk.



L-R RiRi Woo RiRi Boy Heaux
I've been rocking Rih Rih Boy all summer and now I can't wait to get my hands on "Talk That Talk" and "Nude" from the Fall collection. I Also want the bronzer blush duo, it reminds me of the NARS Laguna/Orgasm duo




It hit MAC boutiques on September 26th but it will be available online on September 30and at all other MAC counters October 3rd


What will you be purchasing?

Back to Black


I know the Summer is still going strong but my favorite season is Fall! And I cannot wait to start polishing my nails black annnnd the try out black lipstick YES girls BLACK LIPSTICK I have no idea how it's going to look on me but I love how it looks on Jessie J and when I saw Alicia Keys recently rock it on the cover of Vibe I knew it was werkable* for my complexion :-*






Now with this black lipstick you gotta make  sure you 

  • wear some blush so you don't look dead and washed out
  • keep your eyeshadow simple, I wouldn't even wear any, but a strong dark eyeliner
  • if its too too harsh for you, tone it down with a shiny gloss
NYX - Penelope $4

Manic Panic - Portmortem, $8.75 

Illamasqua - Pristine $22

MUFE Rouge Artist Intense - 50 Satin Black $19

Wait! What?!

I have oily skin no matter what primer/foundation/powder I use my face gets oily - especially when I'm at work! Through the grapevine I've recently heard Milk of Magnesia is not only for stomach issues but also helps with oily skin and acne Wait! What?! I was all the way confused but I will try damn near anything to help with this oily skin of mines it's only about five, six bucks I can't lose.






There's two ways you can use it, the first is to control shine. Everyday before you apply your moisturizer, just dab a small* amount on with a make-up sponge or a cotton ball. Your supposed to only apply to your t-zone but honestly my entire face gets oily so I'll be putting it all over. 






The second way to use it as an acne treatment is to apply a liberal amount to your face for 15 mins, then rinse 1-2 times a week.


I do happen to have some Milk of Magnesia in my house so I will try it out this week and update you guys.

Budget Beauty


For years I had my nose in the air and would only purchase cosmetics from MAC or Sephora but within the last year or so I started testing out some drug store brands, NYX and Wet n Wild are my current favorites and verrrrryyyy expensive -  the quality of Wet n Wild’s lipstick for only $2.49 is mind blowing! A few products that I use and love are:



Color Icon Brow & Liner Pencil - This  pencil is waxy it defines my brows and keeps them in perfect position. I have it in a taupe color so my brows don’t look all Dracula-ish $0.99

Mega Last Lip Color - This  lipstick goes on smooth & creamy and lasts! $2.49

Color Icon Eye Shadow Trio -These little eye shadow trios are pigmented so well and they're also convenient $2.99

Mega Last Nail Color - ALL nail polish chips I'm not even gonna front but the "pro brush" makes it  soooo easy to apply $0.99

Perfect Pair Eye Wand - 1/2 eyeliner 1/2 cream shadow quick and easy $3.99

Matte Lipstick - This lipstick also goes on smoothly with a great matte finish it doesn't last too long tho $6.00

Soft Matte Lip Cream - I like to wear these over lipstick to give them a slightly different color I don't like them alone they don't give enough coverage for me $6.00

Mega Shine Lip Gloss - When I want a nude lip that's not matte this mega shine lip gloss is my fav it covers my lips fully and adds a hint of color (and the bow on the top is adorable) $5.50

Slim Eye Pencil - Sometimes I like to add a pop of color with these eye pencils but again they don't last long at all I have to touch up frequently $3.50

Natural Loose Powder - When applying my foundation I almost always go for a matte finish for years I've been looking for a good loose powder but they all made me look ashy and ghostly someone suggested this Kiss powder to me I was kind of skeptical but I tried it & fell in love it gives me the matte finish I'm looking for but still glowy not all ashy the only thing that annoys me is the mess the loose powder makes it gets everywhere -__- $5.99

Current Beauty Favs




  1. Wet n Wild lipstick color 902C (nude)
  2. Wet n Wild eye shadow trio in walking on eggshells
  3. Sephora Collection Bronzer (I’m not sure which color)
  4. Raw Shea Butter
  5. Baby Wipes

I recently discovered Wet n Wild , well actually I’ve been seeing it in drugstores for years but I never purchased anything until a few weeks ago. I got a few different shades of lipstick, eye shadow and an eyebrow pencil I love everything! But I’m currently addicted to the nude lipstick and nude eye shadow trio. I’ve been pairing it with the Sephora bronzer for a dewy Kimmie K. look.

I’ve been using raw shea butter, I originally purchased it to be used on a burn I have but I started putting it all over my skin to moisturize and it works wonders! My skin is hydrated and it’s starting to fade any blemishes I have.

I’ll admit I’m VERY lazy at night when it comes to washing my make-up off ! I know people have been using baby wipes to do this since forever but I personally just started and I looove it, it’s quick, gentle and it takes off every ounce of make up with just one wipe.

A major reason why these 5 items are my favs of the moment is because they are VERY inexpensive, the bronzer is the most expensive thing at $15 everything else is under $5 yes FIVE DOLLARS! ^_^
