Crystal Says: Weekend Beauty Reads

July 2nd, 2011 by Crystal

I hope everyone’s celebrating an awesome Fourth of July weekend. Hopefully you’re planning on hitting up the sales, eating some tasty BBQ, and enjoying the sun. Anyways, before you out and have fun I wanted to share an eye look that I created with the Lorac Hot Off the Red Carpet Collection which I reviewed here.

I used all four eye shadow shades and really like the combination. It feels like a really appropriate look for the nice weather we’ve been having. I’m also wearing the Tarte Amazonian Clay Waterproof Eyeliner in Brown and the Maybelline the Falsies Mascara.

What kind of look would you have done using the warm aqua, beige, bronze, and brown? Tell me in the comments after checking out the Weekend Beauty Reads!

Flawless for Summer with the Clinique Moisture Surge Tinted Moisturizer

April 14th, 2011 by Crystal

Something my mother taught me amongst many other things: never wear heavy foundations in the dog days of summer. It’s like a recipe for complexion disaster. But what’s a girl to do when she wants a polished, even skin tone?

Tarte Wants to Know if You’re Looking for NeutralEYES

April 13th, 2011 by Crystal

I do believe that the point where fashion and beauty meet can be found right here on the Tarte NeutralEYES Natural Eye Palette ($44 US). The case is so stylish that I’ve had a friend confuse it for a trendy clutch.

But of course it’s what’s inside that matters. Will Tarte’s latest eco-friendly eye shadow palette become go-to colors? Do they offer smooth blendable texture with medium pigmentation like we’ve come to expect from the brand?

Effortless Curls with Remington T-Studio Pearl Ceramic Heated Clip Setters

December 1st, 2010 by Lilan

For as long as I can remember, my hair has never been very good at holding curls. It didn’t matter what curling iron or set of hot rollers I had, it always seemed that those curls would loosen out after just a couple of hours, leaving me with a kinky head of hair that looked like a hot mess.

After I read Jeannie’s review on the new Remington T-Studio Pearl Ceramic Heated Clip Setters ($44.99 US), I really wanted to try it out. For some reason I just had an inkling that this set would make a difference on me. Check out before and after photos here:
