Deep Pore Cleansing.....byebye blackheads!

If you are a avid Clarsonic brush user you must give the new deep pore cleansing brush head a whirl!  My pores never looked so good :),
LOVES it.



WHAT CLARISONIC SAYS:

The Deep Pore Cleansing brush head is now available for the Clarisonic Sonic Cleansing System! Our newest brush head is designed with a unique gradation of bristle firmness and dual-action movement, making it optimal for cleaning oily skin, skin with large pores or those looking to target hard to reach and uneven areas of the face, like the crevasses around the nose. The Deep Pore Cleansing brush head works with all of the Clarisonic Sonic Cleansing Systems. The new brush head has three sets of dual inner rings that oscillate in counter-rotation, providing a deeper cleanse than our other brush heads. Also, the outer rings of the brush head bristles become gradually firmer toward the center of the brush head to thoroughly cleanse the hard to reach areas of your face.
The Deep Pore Cleansing brush head is an ideal compliment to your current brush to provide a deeper cleanse. However, the brush head is also safe to use daily up to two times per day.

MY FACE BE ACTING A FOOL!

My face has been acting a FOOL the past week or so!  Little breakouts and nasty clogged pores.  Just a whole bunch of yuckiness that I don't have time for.  I mean what girl does have time to fit a nasty breakout in?  Come on,  with summer upon us and our social calenders filling up we need to look our BEST at all times!  I haven't broken out like this FOREVER, hence my lack luster product remedies in my skincare drawer.  I rushed to Sephora and whimpered to the sales associate about my dilemma.  She probably thought I was crazy and overreacting, but needless to say she was super sweet and acted concerned.  She told me I would be back to my old self before I new it with some serious help from this lil gem:

It has made a definite improvement in the short time I have used.  If your are experiencing the face funkies you should definitely check this out!
PEACE, PEEL AND FEEL GROOVY :)     

MMJ Circuital Album Release Concert

I was lucky enough to score some tickets to the Louisville Palace Theater for the My Morning Jacket (MMJ) concert on Tuesday night.  It was their album release for their new Circuital cd.  What an amazing show.....ooooooooweeeee!

They suggested fans to dress "fancy!" haha

My "fancy" getup consisted of wedges, white cut off shorts and sequins shirt!  I was on a time crunch........give me a break.  Fancy on top and casual on bottom :).  Shorts proved to be great decision considering the massive heatwave inside.  I thought I got air conditioning with my ticket?!?

Anyways, on to the fun stuff.......my MAKEUP!
exaggerated winged eyeliner and bright lips

Products used:
MAC- Blacktrack eyeliner
Urban Decay- Half Baked eyeshadow (Naked Pallet)
Maybelline- Falsies Brownish Black mascara 
Revlon- Orange Flip lipstick


Simple, Chic and Fun!!!



If your interested in MMJ music, check out the link below!  The concert was streamed LIVE on YouTube :)

All the Little Things

Sometimes its important to remember and appreciate all the little things in life that can make us crack an unexpected smile, giggle or just plain HAPPY!

The next time your having a rough day and nothing is going your way, remember all the little things that God has given us to appreciate in LIFE.  I found this little gem of a website in my search to understand where I was in my life, how I got there and where I wanna be.  I send this website to all my friends when I see them struggling and frustrated with how things are going in their life.  So.........since we're all friends NOW I figured I should let everyone be reminded that for all bad things we encounter in our life, there are plenty of little things to keep us going :)

No Smudge, No Budge

My favorite eyeliner pencils :)

This special edition 15 year anniversary set is to die for.................insert drool here! haha
They already stopped selling these puppies at Sephora and Ulta, so I knew I had to take the plunge and order it before I missed out.  The set is still available on the Urban Decay website : Click Here

Here are the swatches on my arm:

WHAT URBAN DECAY SAYS:


 15 years, 15 pencils! It’s our 15-year anniversary, and we’re celebrating with this mouth-watering set of FIFTEEN 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencils… including SIX all-new shades and a sharpener!
Awww… remember when we were just a baby? We were so cute. Urban Decay is turning FIFTEEN this year, and to celebrate, we created this gorgeous collectable set of fifteen 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencils, including six all-new shades and a sharpener! The wide range of award-winning, high-quality, waterproof shades are great for women of any age, glide on without tugging, last forever, and produce beautiful, vibrant lines. Our fans cannot live without these pencils!

The range of shades includes lush tropical hues, deep metallics, and unusually vibrant neutrals. Favorites like Zero, Bourbon and Electric sit side-by-side with SIX brand-new shades like Asphyxia, Stray Dog and the pièce de résistance: Perversion – a blacker-than-Zero black. Each pencil is stamped with “UD15”. The whole collection (and a sharpener!) comes packaged in a silver foil box printed with our UD15 ticking pattern. Purchased separately, this set is worth $264! What a value!


WHAT I SAY:

These eyeliners are amazing.  They literally last all day and I even find myself having to use q-tip soaked in eye makeup remover to get it all off after I have washed my face.  I LOVE not having to worry about the eyeliner being all under my eyes while I'm at work slaving away over my computer.  Even on my tough days where I shed a few tears its nice to know that eyeliner tears aren't streaming down my face.  On a happier note, all my brides that are streaming tears of happiness don't have to fret about messing up their picture perfect makeup :).  AMAZING!

Another amazing Urban Decay product that every girl needs:
Urban Decay Naked Pallet

I feel like this is the perfect combination of neutrals and dark contours to satisfy both beginner and master makeup junkies.  I have been using this product a lot and think I might even need to buy a few more in case they stop making them!  
URBAN DECAY: PLEASE DON'T STOP MAKING THIS PALLET 
This pallet is in HIGH demand and can be bought at Sephora.  More than likely it wont be in stock, so you will have to be put on the wait list where Sephora will email you when it becomes available. Click Here 
I've used this pallet on some of my previous makeup looks and will do some more soon :)
Perfect for Bridal makeup!
