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.

Maybelline's Master Glaze Blush Stick in Pink Fever

Now I never really used to wear blush. I never thought much about it until I started doing a lot of photos and seeing my face washed out without the little bit of the pink on my cheeks.

So I have been on a search to find a good blush. This is the first one I bought and I am really liking it so far.

The color is very intense and looks great and it is very blendable. I love how soft it feels and the way it has a real good staying power.

I haven't had the chance to try out the other colors that are in this line, but I am very excited to get the rest of the line. I am more a pinks and reds type girl, but I want to start trying other colors so I can play around more with makeup as I do more cosplays and costumes.

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.

Some of my favorite lip balms

I buy so many lip balms because they smell good and my lips are constantly chapped so I thought I would talk about 2 of the lip balms in my purse.

So we are gonna talk about Maybelline's Baby Lips with sunscreen and Burt's Bees Refreshing the grapefruit flavor. I love both of these lip balms.

Baby Lips doesn't taste like a fruit like Burt's Bees but is very moisturizing and soft on my lips. I can even use it over drying lipsticks. I really love all the different ones that Baby Lips comes in.

The Burt's Bees refreshing is my favorite of the Burt's Bees because it is grapefruit and I love grapefruit so much. It smells delicious and feels very velvety against my skin.

Charlotte Ronson Double Ended Blush/Bronzer in Abby

I was out at a little Mexican karaoke bar next to a Sephora in Santa Monica last night so I snuck over to Sephora when the rest of my party was chatting. I always try to find something new to check out at Sephora.

Since it has been a while since I have been online I wanted to start bringing you reviews again even while I don't have internet at home. It makes posting tough but I have New Years resolutions to keep up. :D

I saw the Charlotte Ronson blush and Bronzer combo and since I had never tried it and I also am looking for a new blush for my days out. Since one of my resolutions is to start wearing makeup since I love it and part of me is so busy I don't treat my skin the best so I want to get my skin into better shape.

This blush/Bronzer combo named Abby comes with a blush in a deep coral and a bronze in an almost deep bronze color. The container is a cute tube with the caps both being covered in flowers designs. It is very cute and the caps are very nicely clicked so I don't worry too much about the product getting all over my makeup bag.

It looks extremely pigmented and the colors are so beautiful. I picked this up at my local Sephora.

Happy New Year

So last year I told myself that I would write 365 blog posts. I didn't get that close, but I didn't didn't do too bad. I wrote 281.. That's not bad in my book.. that's close to 5 times a week.. Just missed it by a couple of weeks.

This last year was crazy for me I went back to school full time, I work full time, I run an online business, and I run a cosplay charity. I think sometimes I need more hours in a day. So sadly the last couple of months with everything I fell behind. So I am sorry. And I missed you guys.

So I am going to make it up to you with a giveaway with week. I will see what I have to share with you and start it up.

My new years blog resolutions are pretty simple and run the way they did last year.. I would like to write 365 blog posts. I would like to share more with you all about my passions and in turn learn more about your passions. I would like to see the numbers here grow. I am always excited to see that Bloglovin' is over 100 people. My facebook page is just under 5000 and my twitter is in the 11k zone.. so we are always moving up.

So tell me how did your New Years go? I hit up Disney California Adventure and played a bit of World of Warcraft.. and now I'm catching up on blog posts and thinking about the new year.

Well I won't stay here too long, my voice is completely gone so I am going to get some rest but see you all soon.

Love ya,

Kitten

Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Foundation

So I recieved in the mail from Influenster a Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Foundation. I had not tried it yet so I told myself to give it a try and left it sitting in the box for like 2 weeks because of my busy schedule. Well a lot of you know that I am a cosplayer. So one morning before a con I couldn't figure out what I had done with my normal foundation and so I decided to give this a try.

I surprised at how thick it came out and was worried that I would hate it. I smoothed it evenly over my skin and I was surprised at how well it covered my skin and on top of that it didn't feel greasy. I hate greasy feeling foundations. The nice part is the foundation stayed on my skin all day, while I ran around and played with tons of people.

I would recommend this product if you have a busy day and want your face to stay looking as sharp as the moment you make yourself up. It's not too expensive and worked great for me. Rimmel Londons Website

TearDrop by Lauren Kate

Lauren Kate wrote a wonderful trilogy called Fallen and so when I saw this advanced reader copy I knew I just had to get it.

I loved Teardrop, it's a book about a girl who's tears can bring back the lost city of Atlantis. So beautiful. I love the sea, it's enchanting and I love Lauren's writing. She entrances you with her words and you feel for her characters. I really enjoyed reading this book.

It comes out October 22, 2013 and you will be able to grab it on amazon or at your local bookstore.

Amazon's Blurb about the book:

The first in a new series by Lauren Kate, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Fallen series, TEARDROP is an epic saga of heart-stopping romance, devastating secrets, and dark magic . . . a world where everything you love can be washed away.

Never, ever cry. . . . Eureka Boudreaux's mother drilled that rule into her daughter years ago. But now her mother is gone, and everywhere Eureka goes he is there: Ander, the tall, pale blond boy who seems to know things he shouldn't, who tells Eureka she is in grave danger, who comes closer to making her cry than anyone has before.

But Ander doesn't know Eureka's darkest secret: ever since her mother drowned in a freak accident, Eureka wishes she were dead, too. She has little left that she cares about, just her oldest friend, Brooks, and a strange inheritance—a locket, a letter, a mysterious stone, and an ancient book no one understands. The book contains a haunting tale about a girl who got her heart broken and cried an entire continent into the sea. Eureka is about to discover that the ancient tale is more than a story, that Ander might be telling the truth . . . and that her life has far darker undercurrents than she ever imagined.

I am so excited for the next book in the series.

Beauty Con 2013

This last weekend I went to Beauty Con in Los Angeles at the Siren Studios. I didn't know what to think when I went because I had never been and I am learning that all the conventions have there own feel and ways of doing things. Each can be so completely different that it is hard to measure them up to each other.

I got to the studio at around 10am.. It opened at 10am and at 10:30am we were still wrapped around the corner waiting. The line was waiting and probably 500 deep. My friend showed up and had a plus one to get me inside. So luckily I got to get inside by 10:45am. If I hadn't had the chance to get in that early I would have missed out on a lot of the freebies they were giving away. Like many conventions if you don't get in early you miss out on all the good stuff.

I first walked over to the Bare Minerals Booth because they were giving away make unders. They added a bit of bronzer and lipgloss. They gave me a free fullsized mineral veil. I was actually excited since I had just gotten a free deluxe sized sample from my local Sephora.

Afterwards I went upstairs and got spun the wheel over at LuLu's and won a NYX white eye shadow pencil. I love the white and needed some white so it worked perfectly for me. I went on my way up to the lounge. I created my very own pair of flip flops. I thought it was pretty cool. It didn't dry very fast so I hope that they stay put together. Then I went over to the BareMinerals vending machine and got some of the new mascara and some of the Moxie lipstick. I really love the lipsticks.

I went to leave and they had the opportunity to buy the VIP bag for a $10 and I picked up one for myself.
