Update

Hey guys, I know I completely fail at blogging, but it's summer now, so I can upload more videos and stuff, and make more blog posts, which I'm really excited for. I know this might come as a shock, but I might stop making videos, its just getting really hard to keep from my friends, and my family kinda thinks its weird. Yes, I know I'm doing it for me, but I honestly think if I commit to blogging, then I should focus on that instead of making videos. I really love youtube, but I don't think that I will keep doing it forever. I kind of have a guy in my life right now, but not really, its confusing, and I'm getting mixed symbols, so I'm not to sure how that will go over. 

But on a more positive note, I'm on summer break :) I'm heading up to my cottage with a few friends next weekend, so I'm really pumped about that. And I'm also going to IMATs in Toronto in November which is The International Makeup Artist Trade Show, I'm going to link you guys to the information here:

http://makeupmag.com/imats_tickets/cPath/195/ 

that is where you can find everything you need to know, and where I purchased my tickets. If anyone is going, then forsure let me know, either on here, my youtube or twitter, and I am really looking forward to meeting anyone ! If you see me don't be scared to say hi! I will be going both days :) 

Thanks for stopping by
Alexis :)

Dazzleglass!

Mac recently released the Double Dazzle Collection, it actually came out early in stores then later online. I picked up eight - Sugarrimed, Goldyrocks, Moth to Flame, Baby Sparks, Smile, Rags to Riches, Funtabulous and Love Alert. 

A little side note on the collection- most of the Dazzleglasses are Perm, although four of them are L/E, the only limited one  I own is Goldyrocks. 

Here are some basic color descriptions: 

SugarrimedMilky pale pink with red, teal and white pearl: although I find it a little more white than Pink, but the pearl in this one is amazing.
Goldyrocks- Sheer soft yellow with pink and gold pearl : I think that this one is amazing for layering over a lipstick for some sparkle.
Moth to Flame- Sheer neutral beige with violet pearl: This one is perfect on its own , or over a nude lipstick like creme d'nude
Baby Sparks- Pale pink with violet pearl- a perfect everyday pale pink lip color
Smile- Light coral with pink and gold pearl : I am on a huge coral lips kick right now, so I had to have this one. Its also the only coral one from this collection and is worth checking out if you like coral. This looks AMAZING overtop of Lollipop Loving L/S which is also a fav. for me 
Rags to Riches- Plumy pink with teal and red pearl. This is by far my favorite one. It gives an amazing sheen, unlike some of the other ones, which most of them are matte glosses with glitter added. For sure one to look at. 
Funtabulous-  Purple with violet pearl: This one is straight up purple, and I love it. Def not a everyday color though, probably a really fun going out look. Lavender Lips are so In right now too :)
Love Alert-  Raspberry red with red pearl: really pretty on its own or over a red like brave red l/s. This one is really pigmented and a good one to have.

The dazzleglasses are also really long lasting, more so than regular lipglass, which I really like about these, the glitter in these are amazing, but if you are opposed to glitter then I would steer clear of these. These are my favorite lip products from mac, besides tendertones of course :). 

Ones to get- Smile, Babysparks, Rags to Riches Funtabulous and Love Alert.

update!

hey guys- long time no post, and I'm so sorry, I actually sort of forgot I had a beauty blog, so sorry :( I fail at beauty blogging, and actually at youtube too. I made this resulution to make videos EVERY SECOND DAY! and I haven't. :( I know I fail. But, if any of you guys ever want to get in contact with me, check out my twitter, under the same name as my blog, but I promise to update my blog more. I'm at around 120 suscribers on yt which is really exicting for me, cause I never started yt looking for 100k suscribers, I just sort of did it for myself, and for a way for me to sort of find a new community for my makeup addiction. Only two of my girlfriends are into makeup, and I'm way heavier into it than you Deanna! hah ah and no one else including my family gets my obsession with makeup :(. And, none of my friends know about my internet makeup life, lol. its not like I'm ashamed or anything its just my thing, and I know my guy friends would chirp the shit out of me lol, they like to give me a hard time lol :) 

i'm going to upload some reviews next, as well as my favorite products for right now :)

hey everybody!

Long time no talk :( I'm so sorry i've been neglecting my beauty blog. This is going to be a long ass entry so brace yourself! I'm really feeling the holiday season this year, and cannot wait for Christmas! Its coming up very shortly and I'm still not totally ready. My brother and myself got my mother a Coach Bag, as well a scarf! (how good are we) as we'll as a bracelet from a really funky place in our hometown. Then we got her some random cosmetics for her stocking. My dad is quite possibly the hardest person to shop for, but we got him a really cool vintage Guinness Beer picture for his bar&grill, and a really cool fedora hat. My bother is hard core into the wwe so we got him tickets for the one in Toronto. I'm also doing a Sephora/Mac Haul when we go down. So excited for that. New Updates Soon!

Things that I've Been LOVING!

Hey, 

I ment to post this in a video, but I'm looking a little haggard, and my voice sounds like a grandma's so it goes in here! (thanks to mono for that !) 
Most of these products can be found in haul videos on my youtube account!

1) 187 Brush 
Okay, so I jumped on the bandwagon, and picked up this brush! Total Love! This brush is so multipurpose its unbelievable. I use it EVERYDAY. You can use this for liquid, powder, blending out my BeneFit High Beam/Moonbeam. I especially love it for my MSF's. If you are going to get one mac face brush, get this one!

2) Rubenesque Paint Pot. 

I didn't use this for the LONGEST time. but, I've been using it really often now. If I'm in a hurry, or don't know what else to do for an eye look, I find myself reaching for this. It looks really good by itself or with Woodwinked in the eye crease. It's the perfect 5 Minute eye look. 

3) Love Nectar Lusterglass.

This is the perfect "sexy" lips look. Its a beautiful peachy color with gold shimmers. Enough said!

4) Petticoat MSF

This MSF is love! OMG it is so pretty, its like a pinky, bronzy golden bronzer/blush. It is so gorgeous. It gives you a perfect flush, I like it with the 187 brush, because the color is super build-able, but I also like a light dusting of it all over my face, it gives you a glowing radiance. 

Thats It!
