Polka dot passion at The Gap!

Hello Angels!

Just in time for my latest obsession with polka dots, The Gap has recently showcased their latest refresher to the summer 2013 collection:

I for one already have the black shorts, and have my beady little eye on that blue dress.  To die for! 

Happy Shopping!

Urban Decay's Revolution Lipstick

Hello Angels,

I just received an email from Urban Decay about their brand new lipstick line.  This sounds very promising.  There are 22 colors that are long wearing.  Two of the shades are exclusive to UrbanDecay.com.  I really like their products so I will check these out next time I am in Ulta, Sephora or Macy's.  Check back for swatches and a full review.  

Meanwhile here's a cool video on how to use the lipstick for super long lasting color.

Happy Haulin'!

Hello Angels!!

Clinique has recently released a new line of nail enamels that are formulated for individuals who have a sensitivity to regular enamel.  Be it a contact allergy on the nail, eye or nasal irritation from the smell of regular nail polish, this latest release has got you covered.
Bottles of these brightly colored shellacs are available at Clinique.com as well as many big brand beauty retailers such as Macy's and Sephora.
I've seen several shades already sold out on the Clinique website so get a move on and happy shopping!!!

MAC Extra Dimension 2013 Review

Hello Angels,

I am almost caught up reviewing the items that I have purchased.  Some of you may remember the Extra Dimension collection that was released last year as well as some mini shadows at Christmas time.

Well Angels, if you haven't purchased anything from the past collections
make sure you do next time.  The texture is like a hardened creme.  It goes on smoothly and builds beautifully for more color.  The previous collections consisted of skinfinishes for the face and eye shadows.  This collection included blushes and skinfinishes with two colors.

So what did I buy?  I could not pass up Double Definition Extra Dimension Skinfinish.  The top part is gold with a sheen.  the bottom part is a bronze color with a deep sheen as well.  For my NW 43 skin it is the perfect highlighter.  There are no glitter chunks so blending is a dream.  I have not put it down since I bought it.

I purchased Fiery Impact blush.  It is a beautiful dusty coral.  Is the color original?  No. The formula is a step up from and for those who might not like creme blushes.  You get the same effect without the mess.   I only purchased three of the shadows and I was not disappointed.  I bought zestful (an iridescent light green) triple impact (an iridescent lavendar) and opalesce (an iridescent warm silver).  They will pair beautifully with your favorite shadows in the same color.

All in all these collections are always worth checking out for yourself.  You will definitely find something to your liking.  Bits and pieces may still be floating around at your favorite MAC counter/store or maccosmetics.com. Check out my swatches below.

Happy Haulin'
