Sephora Haul - Too Faced Chocolate Bon Bons, New Sephora Pro Brushes n°53-82 and Sephora Bright Future Gel Serum Concealer Review

Hello guys!! I'm back after years. Last weekend I headed to Sephora and I did a little shopping.

I wanted the new Too Faced Chocolate Bon Bon palette and I was right it is beautiful.

 

 

I tested it for a week and using it everyday I can tell you that it is Amazing. You can do multiple looks with it, cool toned, warm toned, colorful...everything. The texture is smooth like the other Chocolate palettes (the first one is still my favourite out of the three though). The packaging is super cute but It could be a little sturdier. I paid 45 euros for it, a great deal if you think you get 16 eyeshadows.

 

Then I bought two amazing new brushes from the Pro Sephora line, the fan n°53 brush is supposed to be used as a foundation brush but I use it to contour my face and it works great and the other one n°82 the one that looks like a wave I use it as a bronzing brush, it is so unique!

 

Last thing I purchased is the new Sephora Bright Future Gel Serum Concealer, it is a gel formula and I picked the lightest shade to hightlight the undereye. It is smooth, high coverage and thin in texture, A+.

 

Thank you for reading my reviews, leave me a comment if you want and subscribe to my blog.

Photo by: http://justjared.buzznet.com

Hello guys! Have you seen Blake Lively on the Jay Leno Show june 15? She was so beautiful, as always. I love her sense of style, she's classy, never over the top and always on trend. Here she's sporting a pair of high heels green/yellow sandals; a neutral color dress with the cutest pattern I've ever seen, the only thing I don't really like is the white top underneath the dress. Why did she do that? Who knows. I absolutely love her jewellry!

What do you think? Hit or Miss?
For me it's definitely a Hit!

Fashion icon: Annalynne McCord

Hello guys, I wanted to start a Fashion Icon Serie because I saw how much you loved my post on Blair Waldorf Style. Today I wanted to talk about Annalynne McCord from 90210. I love her sense of style, she is a beautiful girl, she has amazing features, her cheekbones are just Wow. I also love her makeup on the show and out. Here's some of my favourite Annalynne outfits' I picked for you:

Formal occasion:

I love this dress, it is so feminine, classy and the color looks great on her. She doesn't have a generous decolté, so she opted for a strapless bustier dress that gives the appearance of bigger breasts. The pumps she's wearing are a perfect match for the dress, simple nude peeptoes.

Semi-formal occasion:

As you can see, she loves pinks and nude colors! I really like the purple shoes with this neutral dress, it give a pop of color. I love the flower stones she has on her shoulder and I adore one sleeve dresses.

Casual Look:

She's obsessed with neckties! I like this school girl look, she pairs it with platot pumps and makes it dressier. What do you think?

Let me know if you like this kind of blog posts.

Spring 2011 Nail Polishes: Essence New Nail Polish in n°74 Fall For Me

Hello guys! So this is one of the items I bought recently from the Essence new spring line. It is a gorgeous baby blue pastel nail polish. As you can see in the photo, it's pretty opaque, infact that was just one coat. It goes on easy and the applicator fits perfectly into the nails. Pastel colors are must haves for spring and summer 2011 and a baby blue color is what you need. The price is so cheap, 1.99€ in Europe and I think it's even cheaper in US.

I hope you liked it.

I hope you liked the color and see you next time.

Nails Trend Fall/Winter 2010: Essence n°62 Must Have - Gunmetal Grey Colors

I love Essence nail polishes! they are cheap but for such a small price they are really great quality. A couple of weeks ago I bought this Essence Multi Dimension XXXL Shine in the color n°62 Must-Have. It's a pretty gunmetal dark grey color, perfect for fall and winter. Grey is definitely in this season, and this is one of the prettiest shades I found on the market.
The finish is metallic but there's no shimmer in it. It is pretty pigmented as you can see in the photo and that's only one coat of it.
I used an Essence Top Coat over it and it held pretty well.

What do you think about it?

Price: 1.99€ in EU.

Fall/Winter 2010 Nail Polishes: E.l.f gold nail polish in Blush

Gold nail polishes are very in this fall/winter 2010. I bought this E.L.F Nail polish in Blush last year I think, but I didn't really used it until yesterday. I fell in love with it, it's a beautiful gold color with a bit of pink, almost a ROSE GOLD color.
It took me two coats to have the color you see in the picture, but I like opaque coverage. I adore E.l.f Nail polishes, they're cheap and they last more than my Mac ones.

Price: 1.50£ in UK, 1.70€ in EU, 1$ in US.

It's an oversize man style watch with the signature stripes pattern. It's grey and black and really pretty. It's classic but fun at the same time. A must have.

Looks I love #4: Taylor Swift on the Late Show with David Letterman

I love Taylor Swift, her elegance is just undeniable. The gold/yellow tone of this dress brings out the golden of her gorgeous hair and the blue of her eyes. I love the makeup she wears all the time, the winged black eyeliner with neutral tone eyeshadows and the red lip, so old hollywood and surely glamorous.
The only thing I don't quite like about this outfit is the color of the shoes, I would have paired this dress with black pumps, but this is just my taste.

What do you think about this outfit?

Miley Cyrus goes Rock Mafia: Hit or Miss?

What do you think about Miley's new style? I heard she was criticized a lot after her last video. I noticed that her style is changed. She's becoming like a Disney version of Taylor Momsen. A rock chick too young to act like that and definitely fake. Don't get me wrong, I love Miley. I just love her old self.
This outfit is a big MISS for me. She's almost naked and doesn't she feel kinda heavy with all the different kinds of jellewry she has on? I kinda like the boots and the bag, but I really hate the rest.

What do you think about Miley's new style and new behaviour?

Designer Bags I love

I want a designer bag so bad, but I can't justify such a big splurge of money on a bag. Do you have any designer bags?I have a Beverly Hills Polo Club one that I really love. I'm not a person who can't live without designer things, I think that fashion is not about the price you pay the clothes or the accessories, it's about your sense of style and about finding fashionable things without spending a fortune to create a style that isn't there. Although I really like these bags...Which one do you think it's prettiest?

-Mulberry Alexa Bag
-Louis Vuitton Tivoli PM
-Alexander Wang ROCCO MINI DUFFLE - LEATHER/BLACK

Let me know if you like them and which one would you choose.

Looks I love #3: Juliette Sharp from Gossip Girl (aka Katie Cassidy)

I don't know if it's just me or if there's anybody else who loves this girl. Even though her character is bad, I love her attitude and especially her sense of style.

The outfits she wears are always classy, she wears mostly neutral colors but she plays with accessories, for example the red and the blue bags she carries all the time. I adore her blazers with padded shoulders, so in, and her incredible high heels!

The evening gown is so beautiful and flowy. The blue and the grey are amazing together...I have nothing but great things to say about these looks.

A+

Looks I love #2: Classy Hilary Duff

I love this Hilary look. Maybe my readers have noticed that I like classy looks.

-Shiny, retrò kind of man shoes are really in this fall and I love that they have no strings.

-The mini tweed skirt it's classy vintage but modern at the same time.

-The cardigan it's preppy and it gives a touch of casualty to the look.

I would have paired a shiny black bag with this outfit, but It's pretty cute anyway.

Nails Trend Fall/Winter 2010: Essence Matt Top Coat Nail Polish

The fall nails trend seem to be a matte look, so when I saw the essence matt top coat I decided to try it because I love essence and it was so cheap, only 1,99€. I tried it and it looks so funny, I don't know maybe I'm not used to have opaque nails, I'm not quite sure if I like them or not. The essence top coat it's really nice though. Have you tried other brands matte top coat?

Here's what essence website says about it: "Now it’s easy to get the ultimate matt-trend for all your nail polishes! the top coat contains special mattifying ingredients that remove gloss and shimmer from your nail polish. simply apply over the desired nail polish, leave to dry, and get sensational results!"

Let me know what you think. I'll post some photos later because my camera just broke :(
