♡My First MAC Lipstick♡

Tuesday, July 14, 2015




I have always faithfully bought my holy grail foundation from my local MAC counter, but the instant my eyes caught the glint of the lipstick jewels that were preciously and silently singing songs of makeup mermaids and pretty maidens I fantasized about getting my grubby little hands on them. The only thing stopping me---the hefty price tag attached so innocently to the lipstick gem. How could I ever justify buying a tiny cosmetic tube that I could only apply to my unfortunate thin lips for nearly 20 bucks?! But, they are so beautiful the other part of me argues (the part of me that would justify buying about anything no matter the price tag). Maybe you're wondering how I solved this "grueling" dilemma. After a year and a half of eyeing those perfectly packaged lipsticks like a child at a candy store I finally caved in. What happened to my self control you ask? I'll tell you what happened---it went straight out the window and I couldn't be happier~
   Now with this dilemma settled you're probably pondering the most important ordeal---what lipstick did I get?! I'm glad you asked, dear! After lots of careful deliberation I finally settled with the sweet little classic---Creme Cup~ It's the sweetest pink nude lipstick you'll ever see! The lipstick slides on like velvet and I swear it smells like cupcakes~ CUPCAKES! This pink is SO----innocent! It's pretty, girly, and everything nice! I swear it's magic in a tube and fit for any princess. I'd like to shoutout a bear hug thank you to Catherine from Pretty Little Beauty Blog for recommending it. I'm in love~

Hello, my darling, darling readers~ My little schnitzels~ My cutie patooties~ My---okay, okay I might or might not be trying to cover the fact that I haven't posted in a while. You'll forgive me though, right? Right?!
I swear I'll get the hang of this blogging thing. . .eventually. For the record though I've missed all of you! Pinky swears~

Today's little post I bring you my very first face of the day. It's nothing too over the top hence the title of the post---simplicity. This is actually the makeup look I'll rock most days as I feel its fresh and has the essence of the daintiness I like to capture. Lately, though I've been steering clear of eyeshadow. Don't get me wrong I love sparkly eyeshadow as much as the next girl! But, recently I feel it doesn't take a lot for my eyes to pop plus lets be honest here some mornings it can be a pain in the butt!Sometimes a girl just needs a little mascara and walah~  I'll tell you one thing I've been obsessing over though. . .eyebrows! I can't believe I've ignored those bad boys for so long~ I swear I feel like an artist when I'm drawing the shape of my eyebrows. I swear I'm the next Michael Angelo.  Bold eyebrows are a girl's best friend~
Don't hate em' till you've tried them!
