It seems as if my Walmart is always out of some or everything is out of order but in any case I found some goodies while there. I have been hearing about <a href="http://www.walmart.com/ip/Hard-Candy-So-Baked-Bronzer/12441146">Hard Candy So Baked bronzers</a> for a while and I finally found them. Even though they are called bronzers, they are far too light for my dark complexion. So what I will be using them for, is highlighters. The one that I researched that would suit my skintone the best would be <i>Tropics</i>. Its a not overly bronzey tan color with bronze veining. When swatched, it gives off this nicely bronze glow without looking like a disco ball.<br />

Lastly I saw this eyeshadow called <i><a href="http://www.walmart.com/ip/Hard-Candy-Meteor-Eyes-Shadow-in-Asteroid-Blue./14898312?findingMethod=rr">Supernova</a></i> that reminded me soo much of the <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/mac-mineralize-eyeshadows-for-2012-review-photos-swatches">MAC Young Punk</a>, which was limited edition. Don't you hate when MAC comes out with a collection and then once sold out, it disappears. SMH! However, Supernova can be your alternative. When photographed it looks almost identical but in the pan you can see that Supernova has a deep purple color rather than a pinkie/purple flexes of glitter and no white veining. I am absolutely impressed with this line and will be making more purchases,as soon as I decide what else I want.</div>

It can start from one side of the head and finish on the other. Or the braid can do a complete circle around head. Going from a simple French braid to intricate fish tail braids. Braiding is nothing new but with many celebrities doing some of these hair styles, they are becoming popular again. Seeing a lot of pictures in magazines and online, makes me wonder if you have been joining the craze.</p>

I know everyone has seen the colorful skinny jeans that's out and they are allowing us to dress in all different colors without looking crazy. The brightness and the vibrancy of the colors in the color forcast has made me extremely happy, since I'm a person who LOVES color. <br>
But besides the bright colors, I have been loving the look of just black and white. The dresses and the accessories that are coming out has me in heaven. The dress with the black lace around the collar and chest, I own. It fits perfectly. But with these two bland colors, you can always pair it with a solid color shoe and clutch or bag. My question to you is, how will you be dressing this spring?</p>

In the beginning I was uninspired to write anything and then my laptop permanently died on me. All this time I have found and fell in love with new products, clothing, and another website called pinterest. If you haven't checked it out yet, I advise you do. It's an easy way to share your ideas and inspiration boards for yourself and others. You can follow me at pinterest.com/swankygt or click the button at the bottom. I have also been traveling. I went to California in December as well as Las Vegas. Both places were super fun. While in Vegas, we visited Hoover Dam and the view was amazing! Also I went to the gun range, which my bestie arranged and went to the pier in Calif. I can't show you all the pictures because I don't have a computer yet but I can show you pictures that I have saved on my phone.

I have wore this look for a couple of days now and it looks absolutely gorgeous in the daytime. It is absolutely simple with just using all the colors in the palette and with a pop of color on the lips. This pink lipstick is my absolute fav. and is very moisturizing, MAC Milan Mode. Milan Mode is a Lustre with glitter but the glitter is not overbearing at all. I hope you all enjoy.</div><br />

</div><div style="text-align: justify;">I went Wet n Wild crazy at Rite Aid this week for their BOGO sale. It wasn't the sale that made me go crazy but it was the fact that there was new products that came out. If you are familiar with the holiday collection last year, then you will already know these products but it looks like they are now part of the permanent line. These eyeshadows are super pigmented and super soft. My I'm Getting Sunburned palette broke once I got home, so be careful. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

P.S. I know I have been MIA for a while but I'm back....I will be back blogging in a couple of days...SwankyGThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09256473126937078365noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5722295556673955116.post-90110587661975090002011-05-09T06:51:00.000-07:002011-05-09T06:51:18.327-07:00LeFemme Blushes<div style="text-align: justify;">I can not even explain how long I wanted to try out these blushes. I have heard wonderful things about them from fellow bloggers and also youtubers. First, I want to tell you the cons of purchasing these blushes from <a href="https://www.makeupmania.com/">MakeupMania</a>. The processing time to process your order is kind of ridiculous, it takes over a week and then they do not send you a email to notify you of the products that are currently out of stock. After growing impatient, I called the company to find out what was really going on and was notified that a lot of the blushes I purchased was out of stock. The company was waiting to get a new shipment in but even after the new shipment, I am still out of two blushes. Its okay to be out of stock but not to be notified of what is really going on is not okay, you literally have to call the company to find out. The good thing out of this situation is that, when the blushes are back in stock, they will send them to me free of charge (meaning that I don't have to pay for shipping). I ordered on April 20th and received my package on May 9th, just to explain the wait time.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now onto the wonderful blushes, which speak for themselves. They are THEBOMB.COM LOL! Highly pigmented, incredibly smooth, and CHEAP. These blushes were $2.50 each, no there isn't a typo. For the price and the quality, they are BETTER than MAC. I have two MAC blushes and the pigmentation is better than the ones I already have. You can quote me on that. lol</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The pictures does not do these blushes justice. To be warned, the shimmery ones are soft. When I was swatching them I didn't realize that and digged into two of the blushes by mistake. lol The matte ones needed a little more pressure because they are matte. I also purchased a empty 12 blush palette from another company called <a href="http://www.aveyou.com/japonesque12panprofessionalshadowpalettekit-large.aspx">Aveyou</a>. The palette cost $14.00 but the shipping is $5.00. The package came really quick and they threw in some sample products, coupons and a Aveyou bag. Aveyou is a really good company. <i>Now here are the pictures.....</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-iumcoja6Tdg/Tcfq4AMl9yI/AAAAAAAAAD8/KzjIk0i3nVU/s1600/DSCF4661.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="225" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-iumcoja6Tdg/Tcfq4AMl9yI/AAAAAAAAAD8/KzjIk0i3nVU/s400/DSCF4661.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

This time I happened to go to RiteAid and it was in stock. <i>Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Siren</i> is a vibrant orange that has a red undertone and is also a creme finish. Compared to my other orange lipsticks, it isn't as orange as I hoped it would be. When I applied it straight onto my lips, the color didn't quite transfer, which indicated that my lip pigmentation was too dark for the lipstick. But the next time I apply it, I figured I would just mute out my lip color with a little bit of concealer and then apply the lipstick. I hope that works, if not I will have to give it to my sister. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

Today wasn't any different. The night before I was supposed to go out but ended up staying home and this is the same exact look that I created. I loved it so much that I decided to wear it during the day. You can wear it during the day or at night. For the night though, you can darken the crease with a little bit of black or a darker brown for those who don't like to work with the color black.</span></span><br />

With some products you must try them out a couple of times before you can actually commit to it and some you will completely love it. The items that I absolutely dislike and will be either given away or thrown in the garbage include:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YpHgTQYsw2E/TbS6yPhd2eI/AAAAAAAAADI/T2nkT7RZzho/s1600/DSCF4567.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="292" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YpHgTQYsw2E/TbS6yPhd2eI/AAAAAAAAADI/T2nkT7RZzho/s400/DSCF4567.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Also one of the brushes is too hard. I would give the brushes away and just keep the bag.</span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><br />

Its flawless, lasts up to 15 hours, and is lightweight but also gives you phenomenal coverage. The only downside that about this foundation is that it broke me out BAD! I stopped using it but I began using my other foundation which you will see later.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">The Products that are LOVED include:</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><br />

<i style="font-weight: bold;">Lustrasilk Tea Tree Cholesterol Intensive Therapy Hair Treatment: </i>A special "dry scalp" formula that is enhanced with the Natural Healing Properties of Tea Tree Oil, Vitamin E, and 5 Essential Oils (Rosehips Extract, Soybean Oil, Safflower Oil, Peanut Oil, and Mineral Oil).<br />
<br />
I left the conditioner in my hair after washing it for 45 mins -1 hour long. It left my hair feeling extra soft and manageable.<br />

</span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; line-height: 13px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Studio Tech gives a flawless finish to your skin but the only reason why I changed my foundation to the Prolongwear was b/c I have oily skin and preferred a liquid over a cream. But to make this foundation work and the reason why I love it soooo much is that I just needed a good face primer to prevent my face from getting oily throughout the day.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; line-height: 13px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br />

The Spring has begun and if you have been paying attention,<b> </b>you would notice that bold prints are in. If its with the shoes or Maxi dresses, they are coming in prints and <b>COLOR</b>. When picking out one of these items, beware of the bright colors if you are not used to wearing those type of things. The bright colors such as greens, blues, oranges, yellow, nudes, whites, and pinks are in and don't be afraid to wear these colors ladies.<br />
<br />
I have come across a shoe that absolutely adore and most certainly will purchase. They have both the bold colors and also the bold print to match. They are from <a href="http://www.aldoshoes.com/us/women/shoes/wedges/84155121-forwood/48">Aldo</a> for $90.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">These shadows are silky and not chalky at all. I used the Baja Tones palette today and they are easily bendable, as well as pigmented. As for the Sandstorm palette, the shadows are a little bit too close to my skin tone but with the right base, they will do just fine. </div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #835f2d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px;"><b><br />

I purchased them at my local beauty supply store. The glitter liner contains fine blue glitter with green reflex in it. The liner is not hard to apply and once the clear glue drys the glitter will remain in place. The Glitter Mania also contains fine glitter which I prefer. I was also fortunate enough to purchase MAC 3D Copper and Crystalled Lime Glitter. The MAC glitters are more finely grained than the NYX glitters which was expected.<br />

Being in a dorm with three other roommates and constantly being around females makes you want to do more girly things. I wasn't a girly girl prior to moving to Florida but once in college something changed (lol). My love for makeup and fashion has grown ever since. As I take you along with me on my journey I hope you enjoy and follow my blog.SwankyGThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09256473126937078365noreply@blogger.com3
