Essie Matte About You Topcoat
I was so excited to see that all of these companies were coming out with matte nail polishes! Now which one to buy? Every company was
constantly rolling out something new and I never wanted to buy anything because I wanted to see what matte shade was going to come out next. Then Essie put out Matte About You Topcoat and all my problems were solved. You put it on any nail polish and it mattifies it! Any shade! It is amazing and it dries almost instantly. It looks rad on dark shades. I tried to matte some summer shades on my mom the other night and it just looked like cheap nail polish...so when you matte dark is the way to go! Essie is not my favorite nail polish brand, I have never been a fan of the formulation, however this is hot stuff!

OK I am a notorious lippie addict. I buy a lip product once a week at
least. I know I am bad. But this one is ridic, I swear! I got my mom and one of my bffs to go scoop one up. It is like a lip balm, but it reacts to each individuals body heat and lip pigmentation so it looks different on everyone. Sometimes I get a real pinky tone and others it is a deeper almost berry color. It doesn't burn like a plumper or anything. Def worth checking out.

Urban Decay is one of my favorite cosmetic brands, and for some reason I did not have any of their lipsticks. I know! Well they are $22.00
each so that could be why, but when their new fall collection came out I fell in love. I knew that I wanted to find a creamy nude color and a dark berry. I am very very picky with MAC lipsticks and quite frankly bored with them. So when I got a chance to swatch the new UD lippies I was like whoa! They are sooo creamy! You don't have to put a gloss over they are just juicy all on their own! I picked up Naked (pictured and swatch on top) which is a gorgeous nude and Confession (3rd swatch in pic) which in the tube almost looks black but is actually a quite sheer deep berry color. You can def build it up to a very deep rich color though and it is amazing! Not that it matters but I am always very impressed with UD packaging.

During the summer I was using the Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder to set my foundation and it was amazing. I could go dri
nking and dancing all night and not sweat my makeup off. I was in the pit of a freaking rock show and left covered in beer and bruises but my makeup was still flawless! Anyways now that summer is winding down I needed something different for the colder weather. I am not too too big on MSF's because I am not a fan of glitter, shimmer or mineralized makeup, but I have heard a lot about MSF Natural and have seen it on people and it looks so pretty and flawless I wanted to get matched for it. I am really glad I did. It is so pretty. It gives a lovely matte finish, yet is sheer enough for touch ups through out the day without it caking up on you.

This blush just came out and I had no intentions of buying it. I ha
d my eye on the other pink matte blush. But when I got to the store and swatched, the pink matte blush was really chalky and far too much of a cool tone for my complexion. Then I swatched Notable and it was surprisingly gorgeous. It is a brick reddish brown and it is very pigmented, so I have to make sure to use a light hand and BLEND THE HELL! I have been wearing it every day. The color is not for everyone...I would recommend it for my fellow Latinas!
