I am a complete lipgloss junkie, but I have never tried any of the NYC Liquid Lipshine’s. How did I miss out on trying these? They are amazing.The packaging for me is perfect because it fits right in the small pocket of my purse. The applicator is very flexible and tapers out, which is great for getting into the corners of the lips.  The consistency is not too thick or sticky, and the best part is the smell. OMG this has to be the best smelling lipgloss ever. It smells like vanilla sugar cookies. I love these so much that I have purchased two other colors for myself.

Brand Info:

A beauty-editor favorite is Liquid Lipshine ($2.49). It has pure pigments that created a 3-D gloss effect. Vitamin E provides shine and a moisturizing feel. The formula is non-sticky, super shiny & soft. Available in 10 on-trend shades from neutral nudes, to berries & fuchsias. Start shopping for NYC at these stores nearest you: Walmart, Target, Rite Aid, CVS, Family Dollar, Duane Reade, Kmart, HEB, and others.  Visit NYC newyorkcolor to check out all shades and fun products from New York Color!

Just wanted to share this Hello Kitty cake I made for a friend about two months ago. I am by no means a cake expert, but I have a passion for crafts, design, decor, and cake decorating.

I received both palettes as gifts this year which made it the best NAKED Christmas Ever!

You can purchase both palettes at Sephora.com.

Naked Palette w/brush & primer potion $48.00

Naked2 Palette w/brush & lip junkie $50.00

As of Thursday, December 29 the Naked2 palette is available for purchase with free shipping, but just keep in mind that it has been selling out. According to the Sephora.com, the Naked2 palettes will be available in stores at the end of January. 

Swatches:

I am usually not a press-on type of girl, but there are some days when I don’t have time to wait on the traditional nail polish. I’ve tried many types of press-on’s in the past hoping to find something quick, easy, and mess free. I now can say that my search for the perfect press-on is over. I am completely imPRESSed by the quality and staying power. They are super EASY to apply and most importantly no messy glue. For me the longest process was finding the fit, which didn’t really take that long. After finding the fit all you have to do is PEEL and STICK on. 

I started using these on 12/19 and still have them on as I’m typing this post. The best part is not one nail has FALLEN off in 4 days. They have stuck with me through Christmas shopping, wrapping gifts, taking showers, washing hands, and chasing around my 4 and 1 year-old children. 

Quick Story: I was in the MAC store one day doing my Christmas shopping and one of the consultant says “your nails are so cute, where did you get them done”. She was completely blown away when I said “these are imPRESS press-on nails”. She had this look on her face as if I was lying. She then turns to the other consultant saying “these are press-on nails, isn’t it crazy”. At that point I thought to myself “this is GREAT” not only are these press-on’s cute, but people don’t even realized they are press-on’s.

If you haven’t tried these and ever find yourself in need of cute nails fast, I suggest you pick some up. There are many other colors and designs to choose from. Check out the imPRESS website for color names and an up close look on the various designs. Now I’m going to pick up another design for my Christmas party tomorrow.
