Awaken your Lips... from M.A.C

Hey everyone.. Happy Friday!

A couple of things I wanted to share with you. Yesterday I was out shopping for a baby shower gift for a girlfriend of mine. That's one department that I am clueless at.. for now at least... lol

I was passing by M.A.C and of course, got sucked in!!! They have a new collection out and if you haven't seen it, wow... the packaging is beyond beautiful!!!! The colors are bright, girlie and fun to say the least!

I adored this lip gloss from the new collection called Fashion Fanatic. It's a limited edition gloss and it also has a plumper in it to help Angelina Jolize my lips. Fashion Fanatic is a pale pink color that isn't heavy at all. It does give a bit of a tingle, but I'm ok with that, as long as the plumper doesn't make my lips look like I got stung by a bee.. haha

It's a beautiful sheer color and I'm super happy I got it... a little early birthday present for moi!




On another note, I was in Sephora yesterday while I was waiting for my mom to meet up with me. I think I went on a sample spree, because I came out with about 10 samples of all different things.

I am always looking for a great self tanner for my face. I have this thing that I don't want to use a body self tanner on my face, I feel like it's too harsh and too muddy looking. I came across the Clarins Tanning Milk that Veronika from Veronika's Blushing always talks about. I thought I would get a little sample of it to try. When someone raves about a product that they love, I always appreciate their recommendations and am more willing to take the risk and try it. Since my skin is so sensitive, samples are always a must.

The photos aren't the best, but here is how the Clarins Tanning Milk turned out on my face.




Like I said, the photos aren't all that clear, but you get the idea. I like that it's not too dark, but just gives my skin a bit of color so I don't have to use much bronzer (which I'm totally running out of).

P.S I think I've worn this sweater in three posts now... lol

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Love always,
