TOO FACED - PRETTY RICH PALLET

Too Faced is always coming out with the cutest products and their new Pretty Rich pallet is definitely a must have. The new pallet has matte, shimmer and gel glitter colors that are so beautiful this pallet is a mix between a sultry and glam, that complement each other very well. What I love about this pallet is that not only are the pigments amazing, but just in case you want the gel glitter to stick and pop better the pallet has a tip on the back of the box to help. I absolutely think they truly out did themselves especially the packaging the idea of it to look like a jewelry box with a mirror, and the gel glitters are in the shape of gems. To me packaging and presentations are everything and they really knew what they were doing when designing this pallet.


You can get this gorgeous pallet from Too Faced, Ulta and Sephora online and in store.

  I highly recommend adding this pallet to your makeup needs its very much worth having, so much so I'm tempted to buy another pretty rich pallet. So like I always say DON'T KNOCK IT ROCK IT! And wear it with style.

SUGARPILL X LITTLE TWINSTARS

  I have always been a huge lover of Sugarpill since day one but sadly never got the chance to actually own any of the makeup, UNTIL NOW! introducing my first Sugarpill product. The Limited Edition Sugarpill X Little Twin Star Collection I know it has been out for a bit, but I am so happy with it I just had to share a review. The whole little twin stars collection is so amazing from the packaging to the colors. I absolutely love the shadow pallet the colors are a little shear, but buildable sadly there is only one matte shadow which is the color star ribbon in a aqua blue. I do wish they had made the color sky candy a matte color so it would pear well with the theme of the little twin stars but I still love all the shimmer and colors. The liquid lipsticks are very pigmented and so easy to apply I absolutely love the formula and the little gleams of gold, and how much creative play you can get out of them as well as a beautiful purple color you can get if you mix the two together. When getting the collection you don't just get a shadow pallet and liquid lipstick you also get a cute little makeup bag which the makeup fits perfectly in, and the box the collection comes in is reusable so you can store all your Sugarpill products in it, or whatever little cute things you'd like. I highly recommend the whole collection you will not be sorry, and oh happy day the collection is on sale. So if you get a chance grab it now it is limited edition so once it's gone it's gone. So if you love a cute pastel collection this is for you, I don't always get makeup like these but so happy I did, and like I always say DON'T KNOCK IT ROCK IT!! And wear it with style.

KAT VON D -FETISH COLLECTION

  Kat Von D beauty always releases an amazing collection every year around August, September or October and they are always outstanding. This particular collection is quite a fetish if I do say so myself, from the packaging to the names of each shade. I have swatched all the shades with both my finger and makeup brush, and both show the same quality of pigment. I truly love how the shades have a shimmer opposite, but even so in any style you create the shades and shimmers merge beautifully together. This has always been the one thing I truly love and have noticed about Kat Von D beauty, that she doesn't just see many colors she sees many shades of colors. Even more so in this Fetish collection she hasn't just created an eye shadow pallet, but a blush and highlighter pallet as well. Even in this blush and highlighter pallet again the pigment it amazing and the shades merge beautifully together. I don't normally wear blush but I do sometimes wear highlighter even so, I've used the blushes as eye shadow, same for the highlighters. I was a little hesitant to get the blush and highlighter pallet but I am so glad I did. From the eye shadow shade Sex to the blush shade Salem with these combinations there's no limit to new creations.


   Since this collection came out before Halloween I figured to try the pallet out on a demon doll costume. The colors popped and blended so well together I even showed an everyday look, as you can see the shades also work beautifully together. So if your looking for new amazing shades of beautiful colors go get the collection today, hurry its limited edition and once they're gone your out of luck. So like I always say DON'T KNOCK IT ROCK IT!! And wear it with style.

WET n WILD- FIRE AND ICE COLLECTION

  This Wet N Wild collection is quite an amazing one from the many colors even to the play on words from lets just face it Game Of Thrones. This collection is amazing but also has its ups an downs, lets talk about the ups first shall we. I first wanna talk about the shadows, the colors are so beautiful they are perfectly pigmented but not overly pigmented. With these shadows you do need to build up the colors but that isn't necessarily a bad thing, especially with some that like a lighter calmer look. I can also say the same for the liquid catsuit lipstick and the catsuit lip toppers in the collection. Now I have to say I was very excited that there would be a dragon theme collection however, come to find that while during the advertisement of the collection Wet N Wild didn't exactly do a great job explaining the collection. Come to find that the box its self is not the full collection, there are eight pieces that are sold separably. There is an extra bronzer, highlighter, two more shadow pallets, a bronzer brush, a highlighter brush and two lip toppers. Sadly by the time I found out that there were more to the collection most of the products were sold out. I had to hunt down the rest of the collection from various websites, Ulta stores and Walgreens do to lac of information. All in all I will say this though, even though there was a mishap do to the promotion from Wet N Wild I can still say this collection is very much worth having.



So even though I did have a few ups an downs with this, and knowing I'm not the the only one saying to Wet N Wild hey get it together; just check their instagram comments. I Just gotta say hey shit happens you win some you lose some and not everything is perfect, but like I always say DON'T KNOCK IT ROCK IT! And wear it with style.

SMASH BOX 24 ALWAYS ON EYELINER

  Eyeliner for me is like when I have coffee every morning I don't go a day without it and I never will. I have used several different brands just like any other and I do have my favorites. Of course there's always more than one color of eyeliner, but the most commonly used is classic black. I came across this amazing liner while out shopping for what else but more makeup, as soon as I tried the tester I was in love. This liner is just as advertised it does not smear or transfer and I know we all have had that problem with liners in our lives. Let me tell you this SMASHBOX 24 hour liner is no joke not only does it last all day and night, but this eyeliner pen goes on so smooth and the felt tip is perfectly shaped my wings are sharper than a kitchen knife.




















  This eyeliner is sweat, humidity and waterproof it will stay on threw it all and for those wondering yes it is vegan and cruelty free. So if you're going to be working all day and party all night dont worry that liner wont need a touch up once its on you are ready for anything in any weather. So like I always say DON'T KNOCK IT ROCK IT! And wear it with style.

JUSTICE HOWARD'S -VOODOO- WRITTEN BY: VOODOO QUEEN BLOODY MARY

  I first have to say that I am truly honored to have been asked to read and review this book. I am a huge bookworm and, on occasion, I do read more than one at a time. When I received this book, I pushed all books aside; the cover in itself pulled me in. As I started reading it, my eyes were being opened to new and amazing information, all of which was from the Queen herself, from New Orleans, VooDoo Queen Bloody Mary. I had never known all of what VooDoo truly is, and where it came from. She teaches you what VooDoo is, and how it's been falsely portrayed in many ways, mostly by Hollywood. She also shares with you the history and the practices of VooDoo,  thought by many to be a satanic religion, WHICH IT IS NOT. All of that is explained and taught in the book. Not only have I learned so much, but the amazing photography in this book, all done by Justice Howard, has helped bring the words to life in its images of the history of VooDoo. Justice Howard has a true eye for detail, which is seen in these remarkable images, so much so that they include not just ritual imagery and atmosphere, but also contain real human and animal skeletons within them. This book will truly open not just your eyes but also your mind on so much, as well as teaching you to never judge a book by its cover in more ways than one. I highly recommend this book, and it will not just be a book in your home but an amazing new addition to your life. So like I always say DON'T KNOCK IT ROCK IT!! but this time read with an open mind.

BLESSED INDIVIDUALS- WOMANS SPORTS BRAS

  Let me start with this brand is hands down amazing I am very picky with street clothing brands that I like but this brand has recently added a new addition to there site. Normally Blessed Individuals had hats, shirts, sweat shirts, and of cores underwear, but they first only had bottoms in underwear. Then all of an amazing sudden the line created women's sports bras that came out so amazing in all aspects. First the designs are absolutely bad ass there are four different designs and two different styles. When I first saw them I thought ok they'll probably going to be light fabric maybe a little thin, but I was so wrong. The fabric is so wonderful not only is the fabric not thick or thin but just rite, but the comfort is so beautiful and docent irritate my skin at all like most sports bras when you get random red marks.
                                                                                     

These amazing sports bras are are soft and silky against my skin and you can wear them with pretty much anything. They can be very versatile you can wear them to work out or to the beach, and even with something cute like some leggings and a plaid shirt or a cute pencil skirt and some converse or heels depending on where you're going of course. I Have been seeing that cute sport bras are now the new comfort cute styles to wear and I'm loving it. I've been a fan of the BLESSED INDIVIDUALS brand for a long time and with these women's sports bras they have truly out done themselves. The design that you see here is the Rose Charcoal design by tattoo artist Danny a.k.a. @dboy_87 on instagram his work is really amazing and this rose designs says it all. So like I always say DON'T KNOCK IT ROCK IT! And wear it with style.

When I first heard about this special edition 10 year anniversary collection from Kat Von D I was threw the roof excited sadly they didn't pre-show prices so I wasn't able to get the whole collection. That didn't stop me from at least getting the amazing eye shadow pallet that is just hands down gorgeous, and I mean stunning from the case to the beautiful colors in the shadows I was just in aw. I have always loved Kats amazing ways to create all these wonderful colors and the reinvention of more from the matte colors to the shimmery glitz just the way these colors pop I'm never disappointed.
The colors are so pigmented a little goes a long way and the colors blend into each other so smoothly and beautifully. The mattes are so silky when brushed on the lid and the shimmer shadows lay so well, and with any shimmer there are some fall out but with these barley any. The colors lay so well I didn't even have to use eye primer that's how amazing the formula in these shadows are. I cant wait to create more with all these gorgeous tones you can get the collection online from Kat Von D Beauty or Sephora online and in store. So like I always say DON'T KNOCK IT ROCK IT!

KAT VON D x DIVINE Pallet and Lipstick

My jaw dropped when I fist saw that there was going to be a Divine themed makeup collection I am a huge Divine and John Waters fan. So of cores I knew this had to be in my life when it arrived at my house I couldn't believe it I was so shocked. Right when I opened the pallet the colors were just amazing and the lipstick such a perfect shade. So let me first tell you the packaging is just so well thought out and put together as well as the formulas for the shadows and lipstick.

The colors in this pallet are so pigmented the pastels pop the shimmer shines and a little goes a long way. The lipstick is a cream lipstick but not to creamy I love the color its a bit of a nude taupe but no orange coloration to it which is so wonderful. These colors can go with absolutely any skin tone and the includes the lipstick so in case you thought you couldn't pull these pastels off think again. You can get this amazing limited addition collection at KatVonD Cosmetics online or any Saphora. So like I always say DON'T KNOCK IT ROCK IT! and wear it with style.

The Shaggy Cardigan

I'm all for a fabulous cardigan or an amazing faux fur jacket or coat but this style just blew my mind not just a cardigan or what you think may look like a coat is the best I've seen so far. These are the shaggy cardigans and they have been an amazing addition to my style and wardrobe. Not only do they look amazing but the comfort is just heavenly they are just so soft and comfy. I actually received these cardigans as a gift but was told they were from the exclusive online only of Forever21. Now I'm usually not paschal to trusting cardigans I didn't buy myself do to the fact that I have gotten itchy scruffy cardigans in the past, but these feel just so silky soft on my skin. The whole lining of the actual cardigan is all knit and the detail on the outer shell of it is of these silky fuzzy threads that have been knotted between the knit of the cardigan, and so that is what gives its shaggy accent that completes the look.


 As you can see the cardigan comes in different colors but I should also say that they also feel a bit oversized. So if you prefer so have they syle more fitting go down a size or two I'm wearing a large in these pictures hens why they look so big but I love it. So Like I always say DON'T KNOCK IT ROCK IT and wear it with style.
