Milani baked blushes

Milani recently came out with new baked blushes. They are beautiful! I only own one other milani blush and I hate it so I was a little hesitant, but I kept seeing them around everywhere and they looked very tempting. I'm super glad I got these 2 new ones because they are so pigmented and the colors are gorgeous. Picked them up from CVS. I can't wait to try them out. I hope they're long lasting. The lighter of the 2 is called Delizioso Pink. It kind of reminds me of one of my favorite mac blushes which was limited edition it's called Peony Petal which by the way is making a comeback in April and I believe it's going to be made permanent. The dark pink blush is called Bella Rosa and that is my favorite of the 2.

Make Up For Ever Arty Blossom Palette

Make Up For Ever has a new eyeshadow palette out for spring. It's called Arty Blossom Palette and it's gorgeous!!! To be quite honest I had never purchased any eyeshadows from the brand until last year when I purchased the Blue Sepia Palette which I totally love and I'm obsessed with. The moment I swatched it I knew I had to have it and I searched high and low till I got my hands on it. When I got the Arty Blossom Palette I knew it wouldn't disappoint well I was hoping actually ha ha. I had seen it at IMATS, but I have no idea why I didn't purchase it or even bothered to swatch it. It was at the end of the day and I was already exhausted that must be why. I didn't want to know anything about makeup anymore by the end of the day. So anyways I received the Arty Blossom Palette as a gift from my boyfriend and I absolutely love it. The palette screams spring. Its very colorful and fun. Here are some swatches.

Make up for ever HD blushes

I have a love and hate relationship with cream blushes. I love the way they look on, but I hate that once you add powder on top the color kind of just disappears. I do like that they make my powder blush last longer.

I recently got 2 of the new Make Up For Ever HD blushes. What I love about them is that you can use them on top of powder. That's pretty awesome. There is 16 different shades.

This is off the Sephora website where these are exclusively sold:

Meeting Jaclyn Hill at IMATS LA 2014

I attended IMATS LA for the second time in a row this year. It was lots of fun. Makeup craziness is always fun! I shopped till I dropped, but the best part of all was that I got to meet the beautiful Jaclyn Hill. Every one that knows me knows I have a slight obsession with her. She's so talented and super sweet. Here's a couple of pictures. I really have to say that was the best part of attending IMATS. I waited over an hour in line and it was totally worth it.
