Girl on Fire pt.1
I got asked to do something with the colors Yellow, Burgundy, and Black. I wanted to something I don't really do because yellow is not my preferred color. But after doing a couple of test runs with this color, I'm starting to warm up to it. First of all, the name of the look, came from Alicia's Keys, song "Girl on Fire," I started thinking about different colors, mixing yellows and blues, red and yellows, and finally I came down to picking, yellow, red, oranges, blacks.

Review: Sephora's Travel Brushes
I'm definitely a bag lady, I mean I love purses lol. I love the really big ones, but I dont always have room for my brushes, because most of my brushes are long-handled. I was making my weekly trip to Sephora and I fixed a quick problem. This mini travel brush set.

Review: This is a fast way to carry your brushes with yobu when you're on the go. This set is $10USD, although its got a good deal. Let's look at brush quality. Now, I wasn't expecting quality here, but I wasn't disappointed or impressed. Slightly bigger than a Stila Lipgloss, this magentic travel set hides the brushes so they don't get ruined in your stash. Comes with, a sponge tip / blender, that's decent, I actually would've preferred if it wasn't included.Who uses it? Liner brush a wider version of #266. There's a crease brush, but its oddly- shaped pointy. Would've liked to have rounded to cutting the crease touch ups. Lastly, the smudge brush. Its a normal smudger works better then all the other brushes.
Exactly, why Im on the fence, because I would've liked to see, a smudger, crease (rounded), wide flat shader brush, small round e/s brush. But like I said its only a travel set. But, I thought Sephora should make several versions, so you can mix and match your needs to that outting.

Haul: MAC Cosmetics Culturalized
The duo itself is pretty and it has a magnetic closure. Tne two colors don't have individuals names.
The color on the lefy is a nude shimmery tone. SIMILAR TO shroom and not as shimmery as ricepaper.
The color on the right is a gold color but not too intense as Goldmine.
Each duo is $26.50 USD.
