Mommy Makeup 101

MAC Lightfully Bright

I just love the MAC ads! So inspiring and I really love this one for the new "Lightfully Bright" collection. The glasses are bananas!  I also love the color choices for the lipglasses and can't wait to try them. Check them out.

Body Splash: Nicki's V Cover

 

The tribal body paint as well as the hot pink lip are seen again here in Nicki Minaj's latest spread for V Magazine. The tribal body paint made a statement last year on the runway as well as the Victoria Secret Fashion show so I like that they kept that alive for this. I also love the color choices for the tribal paint. Very nice!

True You Cosmetics: Iconic Lip Collection

I got the chance to try out a new lip product by emerging cosmetic line True You Cosmetics this past week. I love the concept behind the Iconic Lip Collection, which is inspiration behind classic Hollywood beauties like Dorothy Dandridge, Josephine Baker, Ava Gardner, and Lena Horne. I liked the cremy texture as it kept my lips moisturized while giving off a pop of color. I liked the color palettes as well as they are very convenient. You can find these products in Sears as well as their site, www.trueyoucosmetics.net. Check it out as they have a 15% off promo on their site!
