PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
A luxurious powder blush that features a mélange infusion of colors baked on Italian terracotta tiles. Easy to use, sensorial in texture, the nuances of color become extraordinarily luminous. Silky smooth application leaves your face looking healthy and radiant all day.
Price $7.99

My Opinion
I really like these blushes specially since summer is comming up and
this blushes have that nice shimmery glow effect.
Texture is very silky smooth.
Super blendable and pigmentation is crazy awesome.
They last most of the day, I do have to touch up though.
Although these are shimmery, the shimmer is not too crazy and
I don't get the chunks of glitter fallouts when I apply them, as with other brands out there.
The quality overall is just great.
Mac MSB's are $23 Milani's Baked Blushes are $7.99
you just can't beat that.
I got these in 3 shades.

Luminoso-A soft peach-pink w/gold flecks

CYCLING CLASS!!

 
I have gained weight in the past months like crazy, to the point were I don't feel comfortable with myself.
I've had a gym family membership and although I have been a regular for at least 3 times a week since the beginning of the year, I figured I was not working out properly since I've been gaining so much weight.
I am a bit shy so I've never joined any of the classes offered at my gym.
I don't want to try any diet pills as I've had that tragic experience in the past were I gain double the weight =(
So I want to do it the healthy way.
I heard of the famous Cycling class given everyday at our center and I was tempted.
So after thinking about it for some time, I finally tried it and loved it. 
The enviroment is so much fun the instructors actually make you feel motivated
and look forward to the next class. This is my second week.
I go to the 1hr. class 3 times a week and I've actually fealt that I have been working out, today my body is aching a little but I guess that means I've been actually exercising right? =)
The key in loosing weight always is watching out what we eat right? so I have been doing that as well.
So wish me LUCK ladies!! 
I really hope this helps me loose the weight I gained.
Any tips on how to help me loose weight? Please pass them on to me =)

Thanks for Stopping By!

BSC COSMETICS- #7 YELLOW PALETTE

The Story behind this Palette
If you are follower you may know that I recently posted about me having issues
in getting my Lime Palette from Ruthless =(
Luckily soon after, Bitchslap Cosmetics had the Palette on their website =D
I ordered right away.
I feel as if the Lime Palette and me are just not meant to be as I received the wrong palette =(
Anyway, I contacted BSC right away they replied right away too.
They said they would send me the correct palette and that I can keep the one wrongly sent to me.
Wow how exciting!!!
I have to say that after hearing all the bad comments about Bitchslap Cosmetics and actually having the bad experience with others, well it all speaks for itself.
I've ordered twice from BSC and got my order in less than a week.
I have ordered twice on a Thursday and get my order on Monday.
The fact that they got back to me right away is just awesome.
I have to say it is all the opposite from the bad comments towards them.
Just wanted to say Thanks for the palette and I hope to receive my
Lime Palette Soon.
Thanks Bitchslaps Cosmetics!!

So on to the review

#7 YELLOW PALETTE

Avon Ideal Shade Foundation


Product Description
Formulated with PreciseLight Technology.**
For continuous balance, adds moisture or absorbs oil wherever needed.
Natural satin smooth finish. Featherlight medium coverage.
1 fl. oz.
Price $10.00

MY OPINION
I have to say this foundation did not work for me.
When I recently opened it it was like water but after
shaking it for a while it did thickened.
It has like an iridescent slightly pink color to it.
Coverage is sheer to medium but if you use a setting powder you should be fine.
I apply it after a primer and set it with my Artistry foundation powder
and it turns out pretty nice.
After a few hours I fealt very oily and my makeup was sliding off.
Another thing I don't like about this foundation is that when you have it sitting on the bottle for a day or 2, all the oil comes up leaving the foundation at the bottom. That look pretty bad and I had to discard it after this.
 I don't think I will ever purchase this foundation again just because of that.
I really wanted to like this one...

Essence of Beauty Airbrush Primer




Essence of Beauty Airbrush Primer
I saw this primer at CVS along with other items that were at $5.00
Im a sucker fo brushes and I saw a mini kabuki brush,
I was going to grab the brush but when I saw the primer I just had to try it. 
It comes in a 0.7 FL. OZ. tube.
The product is kind of like a sof gel like in texture with an opalescent color.
It kind a reminded me of the Make Up Forever HD primer that I have been wanting to try forever.
On with the review, I like to try out things for a couple of days to actually review it and give it my actual thoughts.
Well I like this primer alot.
It does mattify your makeup.
I have an expression line on my forehead that bugs me and
 unlike other primers this one actually
helped cover it quite a bit.
That there just did it for me.
I like the fact that it does keep your face matte and not shiny or oily
looking, specially on this humid days here in L.A.
Did I mention it leaves my skin really soft?
I haven't experienced any breakouts or changes on my skin.
I really hope they don't disscontinue this one.
I recommend you guys give it a try if you haven't yet
 and if you have let me know what you guys think.

As Always Many Thanks for Stopping By!
