BB Creme = Love

Photobucket

Hello makeup lovers,
Hope you guys are having a fun and sun-safe summer so far. I know it’s hard to remember to reapply sunscreen when you are to busy having fun on the beach, pool, parks, or even in Hawaii. Wouldn’t that be awesome?
Also make sure you are wearing some sort of SPF everyday no matter what season it is or if it’s raining outside. Make sure you wear something that has at least SPF 15 in your Foundation, Moisturizer, or even BB cream.
Most of the time I put on Olay Complete with SPF 15 then I put Physicians Formula Organic Wear Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 15 over it. I only put Foundation on the days I don’t work because I don't really have enough time in the morning to do my whole face routine on the days I work.
Well a few weeks ago me and my mom went to Estee Lauder because they were having their free gift time! Yay for free gifts. Well kind of free. We had to spend at lest $36 to get it. Soo to make this long story short I fell in love with their BB cream.
What’s a BB cream? Its awesomeness in a tube duhhh! NO it’s really an all in one kind of thing. It’s a Moisturizer and Concealer that protects and bighting your skin. It gives you a nice light coverage. It has SPF 35 witch is awesome! BB cremes is perfect for busy moms, people who just want a light coverage, or for people like me who can't get out of bed early enough to put on her face. I really like this because it makes me look bight and awake in the morning and it covers up my dark circles under my eyes. You can also wear this as a Primer under your Foundation if you are going out at night.
A lot of companies are making BB cremes now and they are even in drug stores too. But BB cremes were frist made in Asia I believe. Its was so big there that it can to USA. YAY!!!
This is worth a try!

I don't know how the other kinds of BB creams feel or look like. But this one is a lot thicker then a Foundation and it has a little suntan lotion smell to it.

This is after I wash my face and before I put the creme on.

What BB Cremes do you guys use? Or have tried? What do you like or dislike about it?

I was just going to upload a new makeup tutorial on YouTube buttt as I was edited it I couldn't see where I was putting the eye shadows and the lighting was just bad. I will redo this look once I have the time. I'm thinking sometime next week. I have so much I want to post but I won’t be able too post till Monday because I am going away for the weekend and tomorrow will be crazy busy. Right when I get out of work I will be doing my friends makeup for an interview at four but we both get out of work at 3. No worries I will make her look awesome in no time. Then right after I am grabbing my bags and having a fun weekend. I just clean all my makeup blushes and put everything I’m going to use in a bag where I can just garb and go. But I have to pack my things for the weekend after this post. I hope I will have time to take pics of my work and show you guys what I did. I am really sorry guys for the one post a week thing I will do my best to post more.

Bon Bons: Woa flashback!

Photobucket

Hello makeup lovers, I'm sorry that this post is not about a new product or a new makeup look. It’s actually about something I use to love.

When I was out shopping with my BFF the other night in another town we stop by a Wal-Mart near by before heading back home. I always need something from Wal-Mart. Of course I find myself with the makeup again. And I saw a certain brand that I have not seen in years. I really thought they went out of business because the Wal-Mart in my town does not carry them anymore well if they do, they must hide really well. It’s funny when I saw the little tiny Bons Bons nail polish and lips glosses I was so happy and relive at the same time. They were one of my favorites when I was in middle school. The big thing with me and my friends was the Bons Bons nail polish and the Lips Smacker lips glosses. Its funny how certain things bring back memories and make you think of the people you love and care about. Bons Bons reminds me of teen magazine, roller blading, boy bands, playing outside till dark, when MTV had nothing but TRL and Music videos, and the only thing I had to worry about was if my hair frizz out on my again. Yep that little tiny makeup brand filled my head with all the things I have forgotten about. I almost brought one just to show my mom and say "look, remember you use to buy me these things all the time". But I didn't I don't why they are only a dollar. Maybe deep down inside I knew I would have loss it, like I did with all the others. Or maybe just because I move on to bigger and better products. Maybe not. Who knows? But they will always make me smile every time I see one.

What is that one thing that gives you a flashback of when you were a child or teen? Comment below or email me at xsassyletsmakeupx@yahoo.com

Just as good as the Chubby Sticks

Photobucket

Just the other day I told myself to stop buying makeup for a while. Then of course the Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain by Revlon that looks exactly like the Chubby Sticks by Clinique comes out. But I kept saying no no no. stop it. After having the makeup fight with myself I forgot all about them until I went food shopping at Wal-Mart. Just walking by the makeup aisle minding my own business until this pretty pink lip balm stain caught my eyes and screams "buy me, I will make you look pretty". Yea true story. Her friends wanted to come home with me too. I promise them I will come back someday. O it’s so sad how I can’t take every makeup product home with me.

okay so on with the review of the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in 015 Cherish

Photobucket

First off the color does stay on forever! After having my tea this morning at work I went to reapply my lip color and it was still on there. Not like "oh there’s still a little color left on there." No it was like hi I'm still pink.
My lips were soft for hours but in the corners of my mouth it does get a little dry but that’s because I work in a very dry place.
The color is very pigmented. And this color that I have is like the perfect pink. I love it. If you are a pink lip color girl then you must get this one.
I believe these are just as good as the Chubby sticks except that they are $16 and Revlon only like $7 or $8.

So witch colors have you bought and loved?

Faking the falsies:pros and cons

Faking the falsihes: Pros and cons of the maybelline Falsies Volum Express in Black Drama

Photobucket

I have been using this mascara for a while now. I love it one minute and then I hate it the next. I have a love and hate relationship with my mascara. If you own this mascara then you know what I am talking about. If you don’t I think you better read on and see why I feel like this.

Pros:
You get both big long and bold eyelashes all in one
It last all day until you take it off
Its easer to apply on then the false eyelashes

Cons:
IT IS NOT WATERPROOF; DO NOT GO NEAR WATER AT ALL. You will look like a raccoon for sure.
It gets in my eyes every time I wash it off.
If I put too much on it can get very crumply.
It awesome that it makes my lashes so long but I sometimes get the mascara on my brow bone.

I will not buy this again because there is no easy way to clean it off at the end of the day and it also hurts my eyes every time. I really wish it didn’t hurt my eyes because I do love how they look.
How do you feel about this Mascara? Will you buy it again?

Its Magnetic

Photobucket

Last year the big nail trend was Crackle nails polish. All summer long I would wear the Crackle nails polish but would get different colors every week. I was so in love with them. I would put a blue crackle nail polish over a white or orange over red. I saw crackle nail polish every where in stores and on other people nails. I thought that nothing can ever top off Crackle nail polish until one day a good friend of mine facebook me about the Sally Hansen Magnetic nail polish and told me how awesome they are. So when I got the chance I went to target and got a purple color. I really want the pink one but it was sold out both at target and Wal-Mart. How sad. But I am happy with this color. This is really easy to use.

What you do is put on a base coat.
Shake the nail polish and apply one coat of the nail polish.
Let it dry
Apply a really thick coat one nail at a time.
Make sure you put the magnet over the nail right away for ten seconds
Ather those ten seconds you will get a fun and awesome waves on you nails.
Make sure you put on a top coat to add a shine!
You will love this. It’s about $8 at any drug store. Sephora is trying to sell these for like $16. Really.

O orange a make up look made just for you!

I have been wearing this look a lot lately and just want to share it with you guys. Enjoy. All I have is the eye look because I lost the taping part of the face. I don't know what happen to it but it won't happen again. I'll make sure of it.

Here is what I used:
For the eyes:
Color tattoo by Maybelline in 10 Fierce & Tangy
A gold and white eye shadow in the Sephora palette
A cream eyeliner and the brown eyeliner pencil in the Sephora palette
The falsies Volume Express mascara in Black Drama by Maybelline
For the face: (I know this part of the video got lost but I will still tell you what I use anyways.)
For foundation I use Clinique redness solutions in 01 calming alabaster
Bronzer from the Sephora palette
e.l.f blush in candid coral
Physicians Formula Bronzer Shimmer Strips in Malibu Strip/Pink Sand
I had a lot of fun making this video I can't wait to do more. I know I will get better at making video and looks along the way.
