NOTD- OPI dating a royal

here i am wearing a fun summer color...bright royal blue. i really love this color. its my first time wearing it, but its such an eye catching color. the first coat went on a bit streaky, however after the second coat, things were smoothed over and the results are shown in the pictures. enjoy :)

001 items i'm lusting after

im sorry for the lack of posts. at the moment my sister has my usb cord for my camera so i can't upload pictures/videos. so for now, i guess you get to take a gander at a few items i've had my eye on lately hah :)

low scoop back, curve flattering dress in black? yes please. i think american apparel doesnt capture the sexiness right with this dress. great for going out.

aa nail polish in california trooper, coney island, and l spirit:

i believe these nail polish shades are new to for the summer season. i almost bought these online but i hear if you buy them in the store you can choose three shades of your liking and get it for $15 instead of $6 each. i'll wait until i make a trip to a store to get them, i absolutely love coney island and l spirit. l spirit looks like such a neat color, a mix of pale lavender with a bluish tinge, me likey.

SkinSceuticals Phloretin CF Serum

i've been researching skincare lines because im trying to achieve a better complexion. i have scarring that i am attempting to fade and smooth and i want to have a product that works at preventing any damage or wrinkles. i keep hearing only good things from skinceuticals so i want to try it out eventually. the prices are pretty steep but if it does what it claims i wont complain...

well that's about the main core of what i've been eyeing. once i get my cord back, i will post some more exciting things than this hah :)

review: kat von d true romance palette in ludwig

kat von d true romance palette in ludwig

i recieved this palette from my sister as a gift for christmas. i really like this product for a few reasons.

for one, the packaging is great. it is compact, easy to travel with (which i frequently use it for), and sleek. the packaging has the same matte black rubber that is similar to the NARS packaging. i know some people hate it because it gets dirty easily but i dont have a problem with it.

secondly, the quality of the shadows is great. they are smooth, super blendable, pigmented and finely milled. keep in mind because the shadows are finely milled, they will have a tendency to fly all over if you arent careful.

and lastly, i like this palette because of the colors. there are neutrals that i can use for everyday, as well as some greens and a black in case i want to make a smokey eye or add color. it is a versatile product.

here is a swatch of all the colors:


from L to R: lucifer, orbi, dimebag, tequila, clay, downtown, baroque, leather

lucifer is just a matte charcoal black, orbi is a dark metallic forest green, dimebag is a light metallic green, tequila is a very light (it appears white but its more beige) shimmery yellow based beige, clay is a light shimmery brown based beige, downtown is a champange shimmery pinkish brown, baroque is a milk chocolate shimmery brown, and leather is a standard chocolate matte brown.

i would recommend this product if you are a fan of kat von d, have no palettes and travel a lot, need eyeshadows, or are just a collector. if you have a lot of eyeshadows and really dont think you need anymore, you can skip out on this product since althought the quality is good, the colors are not extraordinary. you can easily find dupes or close enough colors to what is given.

i really like this product and would actually buy another palette from kat von d. perhaps her beethoven one :)

anyone own kat von d products? thoughts?
