Spring/Summer must haves


So a lot of new exciting makeup goodies are coming out for the new season. i've tried a couple of them and i'm in love! i just had to share these with you, here we go ;)

first off is a to die for product, its by NARS, just when you thought you had enough orgasm, they always amaze you with a new goodie.
NARS Orgasm Illuminator $29.



Umm, i saw this and my jaw dropped its so freaking beautiful. Estee surprised me with this one, its a liquid eyeshadow that stays on and its so vibrant. i absolutely love it. its got a nice long wear also. LOVE!! they come in 3 other colors too.
Estee Lauder Limited Edition Liquid eyeshadows from the Bronze Goddess collection in Aquaflash $17.50


This lipstick is gorgeous!! at first i was like ehhh, its cute and then
i tried it on, its got so much pigment and its so opaque with a little sheen. i love this color, its like a pale lavender, this has got to look great with a fierce tan!
MAC Liberty of London Lipstick in Blooming Lovely $14.


also check out some other MAC lipstick colors like Morange(bright orange), and Ruby Woo(a matte true blue red), these two shades are must haves!

For all you self tanners out there, you gotta try this new Clarins Self Tanner. we all know that Clarins is known for their line of self tanners, so it wasnt a surprise when they came out with a self tanner that doesnt smell like a self tanner. its the
Delicious Self Tanning Cream $42.


this one next is one of my staple products. its something i cant be without. its bobbi bronzer in the shade deep. deep is the darkest shade and i wear that shade because i really like to contour the shit out of my face and i can really get a nice soft dramatic well blended look with this bronzer, its also matte which is great because i can easily put a MAC Beauty Powder as a highlight or that new NARS Orgasm Illuminator.Bobbi Brown Bronzing Powder in Deep $33

LOVE these new Blush Duo's by MAC. in 6 new shades, these are great for spring/summer. dont forget these are limited.
MAC Mineralized Blush Duo $23.

this new brush is essential, i loved the original #188 and #187 brush, and didnt think that it
needed to be different, but MAC released their new #130 brush about 3 weeks ago and i use it everyday, i love it! it gives a nice streakless finish. you can use it for liquid, cream, powdered foundations, you can use it for you emollients such as serums and moisturizers, its perfect for your tinted moisturizer. i totally love this brush and need another one for my kit.
MAC #130 Short Duo Fiber Brush $38.

everytime a biggie song comes on it instantly takes me back to being a kid listening to hot 97 or watching mtv/bet. i knew of hip hop because its what i grew up on, my dad put me on to Grandmaster Flash, Sugar Hill Gang etc. i didnt understand the extremity of the whole "east coast" "west coast" war, all i knew was that i was from the east and that west side music was not appealing to me at all. so i would always change the channel/station when west side music came on. later on then i started to appreciate snoop, dre and tupac. but even tho i listenened to hip hop, there was something different about the whole biggie era. its like hip hop was at its best! every song was a banga! i wanted to learn every word to every song of biggies and i did. i remember one new years eve, i think it was either 95 going on 96 or 96 going on 97 and hot 97 always had a count down for the top 100 songs of the year. me and my sister recorded pretty much the whole count down in our tape recorder radio, shit was a Casio...WHAT!! lol i think we still have that tape, point is that there was like 6 biggie songs in that countdown and like 20 other bad boy songs, that had to of been the best year in hip hop.
i remember March 9th, 1997. i was getting dressed for school(8th grade) and had MTV on when they stopped their regularshow and MTV news came on, it was that john(older vj) talking bout how biggie was shot and dead. it was weirdcause i didnt think much of it till i was in class just sitting there thinking like damn yo, like thats it...just like that.i can say that ive never shed a tear for any celebrity but biggie. jay z would probably be the next.

i've been wearing my NOTORIOUS bracelet all week :D

here are some of my biggie all time faves!!! in no order but the first one is my #1

We miss you Biggie!!!
