MAC is releasing a ROCKY HORROR collection OMG

Rocky Horror entered my life 15 years ago.. It changed my life in lots of ways, from the friends I have made and the body confidence I found while attending. Though I rarely go nowadays, mostly just for special events and birthday shows, it has never left my heart. I am stoked that MAC is teaming up with the film for it's 40th Anniversary to do something that appeals to me in a giant way. I can tell you I will be buying most of this collection.

The Collection will hit stores and online on October 2nd.

The collection for MAC will feature a range of products including Lipsticks (hoping for the red to match the Science Fiction Double Feature Lips), Lip Pencils, a Shadow Palette, Powders, Blush, Liquid Eyeliner, Lashes, Glitter, and Pigment. With Columbia's outfit I can tell you there is no way they would leave out glitter for this collection.

Executive producer Lou Adler is stoked about the film’s 40th anniv, noting, “It is hard to believe it has been almost 40 years since we released The Rocky Horror Picture Show, but as we approach this milestone anniversary, the film is as outrageously entertaining and relevant as it ever was. It has certainly taken on a life of its own, and continues to transcend generations and hold a solid spot in pop culture year after year.”

I can't wait to get all of this collection. I am sure to grab the lipsticks, pigments, blush, powder and the palette. This is going to be an expensive collection for me.

Now the chance is yours to finally strut your stuff in authentic Rocky Horror Makeup.

Maybelline's Limited Edition ColorSensational in 990 Fuchsia Fierce

Now this color is part of a set of colors that came out a while ago, it was all gorgeous pinks and purples. I loved all the color but this is the one that is in my purse right now so it will be the color I review today. I love the ways pinks, purples, and reds look on my lips with electric and dramatic makeup.

This color is so beautiful and rich. It goes on smooth and leaves my lips a bright and vibrant color. Definitely leaving my lips the center of attention. I love this look and I really love this limited edition set.

Milani 19 Raspberry Rush pink Lipstick

This is one of my favorite pink lipsticks, I really like the couple of different Milani lipsticks I have gotten. This one in particular is a pretty good color and stays pretty well.

This lipstick is really pigmented and looks great. My only problem is sometimes the lipstick dries out my lips a bit, so when this happens I just put a little bit of moisturizer over it to help it out.

It's hard to find color that is the bright and looks vibrant. Milani does a good job bringing bright colors to life.

2nd Attempt at Crayon Lipstick - Black w/ Copper Shimmer

So I did my second attempt at Crayon Lipstick in a Black with copper shimmer. I used cocoa butter, coconut oil, cinnamon oil, olive oil, the crayon and a little bit of moisture chapstick.

This time I realized I need to mix the cinnamon oil with something because it no longer smells like crayon but it smells like a burning cinnamon candle. I don't really like the smell, but it's all trial and error until I find the best formula.

DIY Crayola Crayon Lipsticks first run

So I have seen people do this on youtube and I have been wanting to try it out. I decided to go out and purchase some items to make this work. It's the first time I had tried it so I stayed in the non scary realm of things and just used 3 simple colors Pink Carnation, Red Violet and Red Orange. The next time when I get more containers I will be putting in some essential oils and mixing the colors to get more fun colors I haven't tried.

I bought a box of Crayola Crayons, a bottle of Coconut Oil, a bottle of Pure Olive Oil and 2 bowls to mix everything in.

It is really simple, just pick a color. I first choose Pink Carnation. Unwrap it. (I forgot to take a picture of the pink unwrapped). Next take a half tablespoon of Olive Oil and a half tablespoon of Coconut Oil. Take the crayon break it up and put the bowl in the microwave. I did it for about 2 minutes and 30 seconds, but I was constantly checking up on it. Didn't want to over cook it. Then I took it out of the microwave and stirred it up a bit. Then I took a spoon and spooned in a little at a time quickly. (I got better as I went) into the container I had available. Then I repeated each step for each color. I took lots of pictures and I plan to do a youtube diy for you all soon, but for now here's my learning attempts.

It goes on a little waxy, but I'm ok with that since this was my first attempt. I already ordered other stuff to try out. It smells like crayons in the container but doesn't really taste like crayons (maybe a little waxy tasting but not really), and I can't smell any smell when it is on my lips. I did get some essential oils to help with the smell for next time. I can't wait to make and mix tons of colors. I just made the world of lipstick an infinite place for me.

Have any of you all done something like this yet? Did you enjoy it?

Ipsy May 2013 Glam Bag Revealing

I loved the idea of subscription services. I fell in love with them at Birchboxes big release with Smashbox Cosmetics. I found Ipsy a while ago, but I kept pushing off subscribing. I finally joined up last month and this is my second bag. I love it.

So this month the theme was Spring Fling. There were quite a few different bags that they sent out. So there were different things that you might get in your bag. There was a lot of things I was not looking forward too.

Here is my Unveiling Video on Youtube

So the bag is really pretty I like the stripes on it. I like the way it looks. I will definitely be using it to hold some of my small makeup items. I love the bags you get each month with Ipsy. It's great if you love makeup bags.

Then I got the St Tropez body glow lotion deluxe size in One Night Only. I am not really a tanner, so I don't think I will ever use it. I might try to swap it out for something else.

Next I got Mirabella lipstick in Posy. It is a beautiful red color. I was really happy that I got it because it was one of the things I wanted from this months box.

I got a gorgeous Juice Beauty lipgloss in pink. I haven't tried it yet but I have really great things about the brand though.

Then I got Zoya's nail polish in Blu. It's a very pale blue. I am starting to love Zoya, I hadn't really liked them before, but I am slowly getting more of this polish.

I got a Yaby concealer in Buff, I think it might be a bit too yellow for me.

Then they gave me a Urban Decay eyeshadow in Space Cowboy for being a part of the community. I thought that was pretty awesome. I don't own very much Urban Decay but my small collection is growing.

Urban Decay Super Saturated High Gloss Lip Color in Glinda

So I didn't get the Urban Decay Glinda palette, I wanted it but couldn't justify the price when I have soo many eye shadows already. But I was given the Glinda lip color pencil by a friend.

The color is a glossy mauve color. I like it, I don't love it but I really prefer bright pop colors, so I didn't think I'd love it. I think my mother will like it since it is more neutral so I will most likely pass it on to her.

The color goes on really smooth and has great coverage, it's definitely a winner for the neutral look. So if you are looky for a nice toned down color, Urban Decay has a nice one. (though I'm not sure if you can get it outside of the OZ palette, but the palette itself is totally worth it if you are a Urban Decay fan).

Yves Saint Laurent in Le Orange and Le Rouge Flamme ( a sephora exclusive)



I am in love with this seasons jump on the orange wagon, I am an orange kinda girl. I was wearing orange before it was the in thing.. same with neon colors.. Im addicted.

So when I ran across these colors I just had to check them out. They are so beautiful. I love how vibrant the orange is and the red really shows off. I love the way they go on so smooth and stay on. I had a hard time getting the swatch off my hand. I love lipsticks that stay on. So great sign for Yves.

I am falling in love with Yves Saint Laurents colors because they stay put, stay vibrant and are worth the cost you are paying.

You can check out Sephora's website to pick up these lovely colors or stop by Sephora and check out everything.
