PAINT COSMETICS REVIEW: Pigments with great swatches!


Posted on You Tube on: March 03, 2009



I am a reviewer for PAINT COSMETICS, which is a great line!
Long time in the making!
Sorry it took so long to post!
Watch to the end to see a picture of the swatches...look coming up soon!
They were kind enough to send me a package of certain pigments to try out. The only con to this was the long time I waited to receive my products, but I'm not complaining! It was definitely worth it.
I definitely recommend you stop by the website and try them out!

The pigments that I received:
-Frost
-Island Ice
-Pellucid
-Limeaide
-Savvy (i believe is normally a pressed pigment, but sample size was loose)
-I was suppose to get a lip gloss! But its okay, I'm excited about the pigments!

My feelings, Pros/Cons: I absolutely love the pigmentation of these loose shadows. The colors are absolutely amazing and I recommend trying this company for sure! The only thing I can suggest is supplying a sifter for the pigments so that no accidents can occur! And I also did not receive the lip gloss that was suppose to come with my reviewer package, but its all gravy! I will be posting a "Tropical Look" with these colors very soon, so keep an eye out for that!

A Simple Day to Evening Look: versatile for work, school, or play


Posted on You Tube on: February 26, 2009



Girls Night with mi hermana Nancy!
Yay! My bff from college traveled to Brooklyn just to see moi! She was my partner in crime as we helped each other get through some tough situations together...I am truly blessed that God helped us meet twice in our lives! Nancy don't you think that was him saying "C'mon why aren't you guys friends yet?!" Lol this is Nancy, who is going to be a teacher, as well as I am, and doesn't usually wear a lot of makeup. In this episode, I am showing her how to start incorporating a little color, without being over bearing. This is a great look she can wear all day: when she taking classes, teaching the little ones, or going out to dinner with friends...its very versatile. I hope you guys enjoy this as much as we did making it!

I used the Cover Girl Trio in "Shimmering Sands", which I absolutely love and need to go buy one for myself!

Posted on You Tube on: October 20, 2008



Products Used:

- I washed my face with clearisil.
- wiped my face with the loreal skin genesis micro smoothing wet cleansing towelettes to make sure i didnt leave any excess product on.
- I mixed clinique dramatically different moisturizing lotion and estee lauder 'Spotlight' to get a dewy look and to even out skin tone.
- I used "Dr. feelgood" from benefit as a primer.
- I used a bronzing powder (possibly from trucco, but drug store is fine) all over face, since it matches my skin tone.
- cliniqe blush in Fig #6 on the apples of cheeks and dabbed on forehead, nose and chin.
- For lips: I gave different options for whatever your doing for the day--the options were: Burts Bees Honey lip balm, Candy Kisses bubble gum drop natural lip balm, bobbi bown shimmer lip gloss in pearl sugar #8, and MAC clear lip glass. I used the Bobbi Brown shimmer lip gloss.

Hope you enjoyed this and have a great day!

This is the look I call "Berries & Cream". The camera that was used to record this was the samsung SL310W. The model is my beautiful cousin Krissy =) Even though this is a makeup tutorial, we were still being silly gooses! Hope you enjoy!

2)Powder Bronzer in Tropical Tan: To giver her some rosy cheeks =)
3) Trucco Eye Colors In Pale-Reflective1: A great highlight for the brow bone!
4)NARS Caravaggio e/s duo: The essence of the "Berries & Cream" look!
5)Her own liquid eyeliner: because she knows the way she likes them =)
