So many of you all have been asking me about my foundation and what color I wear. Sorry i've been taking so long to responding to you guys but here it is. I chose these foundations as my top three because these are the ones i found that does not break me out.
With the Clinique moisture sheer tint.. I wear this in neutral.. This is basically a moisturizer with a bit of foundation.. The coverage is not to intense but it helps even out the skintone if you don't have much to cover up. The color looks a lot lighter but it blends into my skin. Normally I would wear NC 37/35 in MAC for a reference.
Next, is the ESTEE LAUDER double wear LIGHT foundation.. and the color is 3.0 . This foundation has a lighter coverage than the regular double wear foundation that I have. I normally wear this color during the winter since it's a bit light than the double wear foundation in wheat 38. This foundation is really great, it has really good coverage and won't make u look cakey at all. It is also great for evening out the skin tone and minor scarring.
Lastly, is the ESTEE LAUDER DOUBLE WEAR foundation. This foundation give you full coverage.. But be careful, a little goes a long way. This is one of my favorites because it really gives me that flawless look. I usually apply this with a sponge to blend everything out. I just wish they had this in airbrush form. lol..
As of right now i'm using temptu.. and so far it's been a great product!

Lately I haven't been buying any make up at all because I have wayy too much.. And I rarely use it now-a-days. But I did get one big thing from my mom.. it's the TEMPTU AIRBRUSH SYESTEM! and another thing I got was just some kirkland brushes from Costoco worth only 20.00. here they are..
I've been using this for about a week now.. And OH man Oh man, what great results i've been getting with this.. I just love the end results. Great fresh air brush looked without any streaks at all! And I love how it feels so light on your face! This is a must have and I dont think i'll ever return to a regular foundation. I really love this system!! My color is 007 natural. Really look into this product because it will blow you away! i know it blew me away!
15 piece set!!! with microfiber bristles. I also have the set from a while back which doesnt have these kinda of bristles. great and soft!
I also got a double wax warmer from folica.com. I must say, this works great! I used my 20% off coupon.. :D great investment as well if you're into waxing.

The party at my house was pretty okay.. didn't take much picture with the family because I was upstairs giving makeovers with my cousin. LOL!!! well here's my look..
This past week i've been such a busy girl! Starting on Monday I randomly decided to paint my room as well as rearrange it. I had to get everything done by Wednesday because we were holding a Christmas eve party on Thursday. So I was all up all night getting everything done and waking up early to go to ikea and all that junk. Overall I loved the results of my room. Instead of getting a vanity, I got a $20.00 desk from Ikea where i can do all my make up stuff and a 22 dollar chair. :D Also bought a new bed frame 2 big drawers and a smaller drawer. I also go new curtains! I couldn't have done this all with a big help of MY BOYFRIEND, CHESKA and FJ. Great and helpful people. Well here are the before and after!
I had a great Thanksgiving with my family. We had a very small Thanksgiving dinner consisting of my parents my brother and our boyfriend/girlfriend. My brother was the main chef of the evening and he cooked the turkey, made mash potato's and gravy, green beans and everything was really good he also made the stuffing. I, on my part, made cookies and mac & cheese. heheh. Me n my lazy ass.. & My brother's girlfriend made some good strawberry banana creme pie. But yeah, here are some pictures!
Other Photo's not makeup related. :D Using my new DSLR. the one Ashton Kutcher was using on the commercial!
Hey everybody! So I got this new DSLR b/c my brother keeps using mines but im okay with that because the one he has is like pro status and i'm still a beginner. So I purchased the nikon d5000 which is a pretty good price for a DSLR camera and it under 1000 dollars including a lens. The one thing I just love about is the swivel LCD screen. You can take photo's of yourself without having to kno what you look like because you can already see your self on the screen. Another thing is that it's really easy to use and it's very small and light compared to my d300. But other than that I love them both! :D
So, I decided to practice more on my makeup skills since i've been rusty for a while. I haven't but on eyeshadow for like.. almost.. 5-6 months? yeah.. Never had the time to.. So I got around to experimenting on the technique called "cutting the crease" I'm not too good at it but i'll slowly learn and get better. I used QueenofBlendingMUA 's method by using an eyeliner to help me give it that effect. Here are my results...... lol.. don't laugh!

It's been too long. I rarely have the time to update this blog. Anyhoo.. I was thinking about starting my blog on tumblr.. but idk yet.
School has been good.. not so stressful as last sem. b/c I have only 4 classes including 1 science class. lol. just wanted to update. I really need to go to sleep is 6:30am right now and I have to wake up for church which starts at 12:15pm. tootles!
It's been a while since i've been updating my blogger.. Lately I've found things to keep me busy so that I wouldn't be home most of the time. Most of these things mainly consists of exercising. I've been forcing myself to get up every morning to go to the gym. I also have a new gym partner to go with which is my niece. She's sucha good sport.. and she can keep up with the work outs better than I do. lol..
Lately we've been training with a personal trainer. And let me tell you.. they really work you out! Yesterday my arms were sorer than EVER! then the next day he worked out mainly on our legs.. And DAMN!! I can feel it today! My butt is so sore.. as well as my thighs! ALSO, did you guys know that doing CARDIO can increase your body fat?! YAH! I was like wtf?! Our trainer explained to us how that happened but i dont know how to put it into words.. anyways.. Before a personal trainer helped us.. all me and my niece were doing is a bunch of cardio.. cuz we wanted to lose weight. But our trainer explained to us that we were doing it all wrong. You have to build muscle first then you can burn off the fat.. something like that.. i'll let you guys know once i get a clearer explanation of it. But yea.. that's all i knew.. I thought cardio will make you lose weight.. but you gotta do some weight training to balance everything out and nutrition..
anyways.. enough babbling about the gym. but that's what i've been doing lately. Nothing makeup related except for that tart multipleye lash enhancer thingy. I have a few cons regarding the Tarte Lash Enhancer..
- It burns my skin whenever I apply it on my lashline.. it lasts for about a good 2 minutes and it fades away..
- It has a funky odor to it.. i guess with it being organic and everything.. idk tho..
Nothing else.. all i need to see is some results!
Well school is about to be around the corner anytime now.. And I have to move into my apartment soon because the week before school starts my mom planned a vacation to Hawaii.. we come back 2 days before my class starts! damn.. Ima still feel like im on vacation.. we'll see how it goes.. KAY TOOTLES!
Where to buy: Sephora.com
Price: $65
I recently bought the Tarte MultiplEYE Lash Enhancer from sephora mainly because my lashes on the right side of my eye is not as thick and long as the left side of my eye. Also, i've been dealing with a lot of lash fall out. In the past, i've used lipocils.. it really strengthened my lashes and made it a bit thicker.. and a bit lengthy.. but nothing too dramatic. It worked perfectly fine for me. However, I wanted to try a new product and see how well it works for me.. so I chose Tart lash enhancer. Reading the reviews on sephora dragged me into wanting to try this product.
I got the product today.. and it says you'll see best results within 6 weeks. So imma give this a try and let you all know how it works.
