Dupe this Look: VMA Metallics

Jenni Farley, Demi Lovato

Sparkle! Sparkle! Sparkle! was the trend of the night at last night MTV VMAs. The black carpet was bombarded with glitz and glitter everywhere from Britney's black sequined romper to the on trend metallic makeup, as seen on Demi Lovato and Jenni "JWOWW" Farley. I decided to do a take on this heavy metal makeup look that was omnipresent at last night's VMAs. With a lot of help from my Makeup Forever Rock Forever palette, I created this look starting with the 07 white in the inner corner of my eyes and 82 silver on my lids. I patted some silver pigment from my MAC Surf Baby Surf the Ocean pigments on top for an extra punch of silver. I used the glittery 307 black from my Rock Forever palette and extended my Blacktrack fluidline eyeliner past my eye on both bottom and top lashlines while filling in the space with the white 07. To finish the eye look I used Ardell lashes in 79 on the top and cut one false lash strip into two for my bottom lashes. I kept the rest of the look clean and nude with MAC's Darkly My Dear blush and Buoy-o-Bouy lipstick. What was your favorite look at the VMAs? Leave your thoughts in the comments.

Weekend Haul: MUFE Rock Forever Palette and Lipstick 37

After trying to get my hands on this for a few weeks already, I managed to find what seems like the last Makeup Forever Rock Forever makeup palette. I've been needing this palette ever since Pixiwoo used it in one of their videos and last week, I tried purchasing this at a few of the Sephora stores with no luck. Then I tired again online with the same results! By chance, last week I stopped in my local Sephora and there it was! The last and only one! Originally retailing at $45, the Rock Forever palette was marked down and a steal $39! The palette includes shades #07 (White), #82 (Silver), #306 (Beige) and #307 (Black)- all Rock and Roll colors to make the perfect smokey, sexy eye! I had never worked with MUFE shadows until now and the quality is definitely worth the price. Superior to MAC's blendability but equal to its pigmentation, MUFE's shadow's are definitely worth it's heavier sticker price. The colors that come with this palette are not anything out of the ordinary, but they do go on beautifully, and I gotta say- I LOVE this packaging. It's sleek, it's stylish and it's small enough to throw in your makeup case if you're a ROCK STAR on tour and on the GO! Bottom line? Hard to get a hold of, but completely worth it! I LOVE this palette!

Since i was already at Sephora, I picked up another MUFE lipstick in shade #37. Vibrant melon pink with amazing and expected  quality of any MUFE lipstick, this satin finish is gorgeous in the tube AND on the lips. How gorgeous would this be on darker skinned ladies!? I highly recommend this color! Below is my Rock Chick look using my Rock Forever palette and my LOTD in #37.

Weekend Haul: Urban Decay Loose Pigment in Baked and Make Up Forever Lipstick 32

It's been a busy few days, so I apologize for the lack of updates, Honey Bees. I'm back with an amazing haul from Sephora.com. After receiving an email promoting Sephora's bonus gift with $25 purchase, I thought it would be a great idea to try out my first Makeup Forever product and snag that $5 Urban Decay Loose Pigment which happened to be on sale! The gift with purchase was a Sephora travel bag with a ton of travel sized minis to try out, including a baby Makeup Forever lipstick in 36, Lorac eye primer and roll-on Bliss perfume. They also sent me my Happy Birthday Beautiful gift!

I happen to love the Urban Decay Baked products, and Baked in Loose Pigment form is so versatile. Yes, of course, this is gorgeous as an eyeshadow, but adding this to any product gives it a sparkling golden look. Add some to red lipgloss for a wonderful holiday lip or mix it in with your favorite pink blush for a bit of extra shimmer. I picked this product up for a mere $5, and it was worth every penny. Bottom line? This is a must-have for anyone who loves a little shimmer.

The Makeup Forever  lipstick in 32 is a creamy medium pink that although wears a little dry, it is not drying. I happen to love this color which is much warmer and than Viva Glam Gaga  and a touch lighter and muted than Mac's Pink Noveau. This color looks great on warm tones like, but would also look beautiful on cooler tones as well. Wear alone for as a matte pink lip, but I like to dab on my Chanel Glossimer in Pink Pulsion for some added glam. At $19 a tube, its price tag is a little heavier than MAC's but less pricey than brands like Nars. Bottom line?  It wet my appetite for the rest of the MUFE lipsticks. I'm interested and excited to try more from Makeup Forever!
