Too Faced Lashgasm Mascara Review

Hello fashionistas!
Today I wanted to review my new mascara love for you all. 
It's by Too Faced and it's called Lashgasm. 


Here's what Too Faced claims it does. 

"The vitamin-rich, creamy formula penetrates for high-color absorbency and exaggerated length. Multiple rows of flexible yet firm, molded bristles are designed with micro-hooks that grab each and every lash for a gorgeous, clump-free application."



My lashes sans any mascara, sorry this picture isn't super clear.


My lashes with one coat of Lashgasm. 


My take on it is that it does everything it claims to do. My lashes have never looked so long after only a coat of mascara (normally I need at least 2 coats)! The other thing I love about this mascara is that it isn't just lengthening, it's also volumizing. My lashes look so full and healthy. The brush may appear to be a not so great brush (yes, this was my first thought when I opened it), but when you use it the brush manages to coat every individual lash, sans any clumping! It coats your lashes with a very black pigment. 

My Lashgasm came with the Too Faced Poolside Primping Kit ($40), but you can buy it on it's own for $21. 

Anyways, my verdict is that everyone should buy this mascara. I love it. 
Oh, I'm not affiliated with this company at all, I just wanted to share my love for this product with you all.
Have you all tried this? Or are you currently in lash lust with another mascara? 

I'm off to go hang with one of my girls for the day!

Loads of love!

Too Faced Romantic Eye Look

Hello fashionistas!
It's time for another makeup post. I FINALLY got around to photographing a look with my Too Faced Romantic Eye palette, click on the highlighted part to see my review of this palette.
I honestly love this palette and I'm very glad that I purchased it. 
For the look I'm sharing today I did a sultry purple eye. I love playing with purples and this palette comes with a great range of purples!




Excuse the hair, I did nothing but blow dry it with my head upside down for some more volume!

Here's what I used on my face.

Benefit Boi-ing concealer
Physician's Formula Translucent Powder
ELF Contouring Blush and Bronzer (bronzer only to contour)
Too Faced Sun Bunny Bronzer Powder on my cheeks
Maybelline Dream Mousse blush in Cloud Wine

For my eyes: 

Urban Decay Primer Potion all over lid and on the lower rim of my eye
Too Faced Cut the Cake all over lid
Too Faced First Dance in the crease/outer corner, blended
Too Faced I Do in the mid-tone area, blended
Too Faced Soulmates as my highlight
Urban Decay Infamous on my lower lashline
Too Faced First Dance layered on top of Infamous
Too Faced Lashgasm on my lashes
NYC Liquid Liner on my upper lashline 
Urban Decay Naked to fill in my brows

For my lips I swept a quick coat of Co. Bigelow Pink Mint on and called it a day! 

I would definitely wear this out on a date or for a special occasion, but being the makeup-ista I am I just did it for the blog! I love doing makeup posts because it lets me tap into my creativity. 

This is a pre-scheduled post, so while you're reading this I'm probably out swimming in a beautiful, spring fed lake or soaking up some sun. Hope you're all doing great! I can't wait to read all of the posts I'm missing!

Loads of love!

Too Faced Poolside Primping Review

Hello fashionistas!
Last week I placed an order at Apothica and it came in the mail the other day, so I wanted to share what I bought with you all. I've recently become a fan of Too Faced Cosmetics and decided to order their Poolside Primping set. Living in Florida equals a lot of time spent in the water during summer and I would like to spend my time at the beach/pool looking good, so I decided why not buy a set made for that! 



It's a waterproof bag, which I love. 



This set comes with the Glamour Gloss Lip Gloss in Peek-a-Boo, Lashgasm Mascara, Pool Side Primping Makeup bag, Perfect Lips Lip Liner in Perfect Nude, Sun Bunny Bronzer, Primed and Poreless Bronze Tint Face Primer. All of these products but the Primed and Poreless Bronze Tint Face Primer are full sized. 



Left to right:

Glamour Gloss, Perfect Lips lip liner, Sun Bunny (light side) of the bronzer, Sun Bunny (dark side) of the bronzer, Sun Bunny (light and dark) mixed together. 

The bronzer provides such a warm, luminous glow to your face, and makes you look like you basked in the sun for hours. I think the lipgloss and liner give a 'my lips but better' look and have a bit of golden sheen that highlights the warmth from the bronzer.  The gloss is also a bit of a plumping gloss, I can feel my lips tingle just a bit when I put it on. I have yet to use to the mascara or the primer. If I find either of those super amazing, then I will review them! 

If you want to purchase this product, here's the link. It was only $42 and I think that is a great deal because you get 4 full-sized products, a makeup bag, and a deluxe sample sized primer. Apothica also tossed in 2 free samples. If you sign up for Apothica's newsletter then they will send you a code for 10% off your purchase. Overall, I am really happy with my purchase!

What kind of summertime products do you all use when you know you're going to be outside/in the water? 

Loads of love!

Sunset Boulevard- Makeup of the Day

Hello fashionistas!
Today I did a sunset inspired makeup and remembered to take pictures to share with you all. 
I used my new Too Faced Summer Eye palette for some of this. Overall, I definitely like the Romantic Eye palette better. I think the quality of the shadows is better, some of the Summer Eye shades aren't as pigmented/become muddy when you blend. 




Here are the products I used on my eyes.

Urban Decay Primer Potion
MAC Melon pigment all over
Too Faced Summer Eye palette's Coral Crush in my outer corner/crease
Urban Decay Naked 2 Half Baked in the center/blended into the Coral Crush 
Urban Decay Bootycall as my highlight
Too Faced Summer Eye palette's Toasted Coconut as my eyeliner
Covergirl Lashblast mascara top and bottom
Urban Decay Naked to fill in my eyebrows a  bit


Full face shot. I used my favorite blusher ever, Nars' Orgasm. I am sporting a nice all over tan because of the recent beach trips I've taken! I went Sunday morning/afternoon with the boyfriend and again with him yesterday after school. It was really fun. Anyways, that's the whole reason I'm tan again. 


To keep with the sunset theme I put on Kate Moss' Rimmel London #12 lipstick with Palladio Herbal Liplicious lipgloss in Apricot over it to tone down the the coral. 


Today I took my first AICE english paper and it went relatively well. I definitely passed it. 
Tomorrow is pre-AICE history and this doesn't count for college credit. Should do okay on it. 
I'm off to study with my best friend. After that we're going out to dinner. 

Have a fabulous day!

Small Sephora Haul!

Hello fashionistas! 
I did a little Sephora hauling tonight and wanted to share it with you all. 



While I was shopping about I was trying to decide whether I was going to purchase the Too Faced Summer Eye palette or Nars' Orgasm Illuminator. The saleswoman made my life easier and gave me a sample of the illuminator and told me that they weren't going to receive anymore of the palettes. I instantly knew that I had to buy the palette right then and there. Seriously, I've been dying for them to get this bad boy in stores! 
#Makeupaddict. 
Anyways, along with the palette I picked up one of Sephora's nano lip liner pencils in #17 Funky Fuschia. 


How gorgeous? SO GORGEOUS. Can't wait to play around with this. Definitely be expecting a review sometime this week. Sorry, I know you guys are probably annoyed with my lack of swatches, but I didn't want to write up a mini review before I get to experiment. 


Funky Fuschia is a really bright pink liner. I will probably use this all over my lips instead of just lining them. If I added a clear gloss on top it would be a nice pop of pink. For $5 you really can't go wrong with these. 


Have a great weekend!

Loads of love!

Too Faced Romantic Eye Palette Review

Hello beauty-istas!
The other day I was on Apothica and suddenly had the urge to purchase something.
I blame Stephanie's blog post about the Too Faced Romantic Eye palette, as soon as I saw it I wanted it!
Apothica was having a President's Day 20% off sale, so I applied that to my purchase. It took this palette down  from $35 to $28, once you factor in shipping I still saved $2. Which in my makeup obsessed train of  thought seemed like an irreplaceable deal.. What can I say, I love me some makeup! 
I placed the order on Wednesday, received confirmation that it shipped on Friday, and I had it in my hands Monday afternoon! Apothica also included a few samples, which I thought was a nice touch. I love little extras. 


The shades in this palette are very versatile. Soft and delicate, to sultry stunners. Some matte, some shimmer. I feel that it has the perfect amount of different colors to do many, many looks. I liked this palette because of the neutrals and the purples. I was debating between buying the Natural Eye palette or this one, but my mom pointed out that I had Naked 1 and 2. So I decided to get something with more than just neutrals! 
Also, I adore the wedding theme of the names, too cute! 

Left to right:
 Soulmates, Kiss the Bride, Bouquet Toss, I do, Cut the Cake, Honeymoon, Unveil, First Dance, Ever After

These eyeshadows are soft and go on like a dream. I had no fallout problems when I used it this morning (not that I didn't totally swatch as soon as I got it in the mail). I can't wait to use all of the colors.
This morning I did a purple look. 

I can't get enough of this and will probably be using it non-stop for quite awhile!
Can't wait to try out all the shades and other Too Faced palettes... 
I have a makeup buying problem!

If you want to purchase this, click here. Apothica usually has some sort of 10% off deal running, just check their "Special Offers" section. 
I will definitely posting some different looks on here soon!

Have a great day!
