NARS Orgasm/Laguna blush and bronzer duo DUPE!

Hi dolls!!

-So todays post is comparing one of NARS's famous product to a drugstore brand product which is E.L.F. I know I talked about E.L.F and their brushes in my last post so be sure to check that out.



-Alot of you may know the NARS blush and bronzer due.

BLUSH : Orgasm
BRONZER : Laguna

- So the price of this product is : 41$ which is alot of money for a makeup product. Orgasm is a peachy pink with shimmer in it and Laguna is just a browen with golden shimmers. There is another duo is Sin and Casino but I'm not going to talk about that in this post. http://www.narscosmetics.com/color/cheeks/blush--bronzer-duo/orgasm-laguna for more details.

-And the dupe for this is the E.L.F blush and bronzer duo.

-The colors are pretty much also like the NARS one but they dont have a name. But the blush is also a peachy pink with shimmers but I find that the E.L.F blush is a littel bit more peachy than the NARS one and the bronzer a brown with gold shimmers almost like the NARS one.


- EXCEPT that the price is TOTALLY different. The E.L.F one is for 3$! Guys..you cant go wrong!! You can get this at your local Target or at http://www.eyeslipsface.com/ which is the E.L.F website.

Review : E.L.F Brushes

Hi again!! ANOTHER POST YAY!!
So todays topic is a review about the E.L.F Brushes. I really like them alot and I think they are as good as MAC,Sephora,etc.. (high end brushes). Some of them are 1$ 3$ or 5$ I belive, but that is still really really good quality for a drugstore brush. If you dont have E.L.F brushes at your local Target, try to get the Sonia Kashuk brushes because they are very good too but now lets talk about the E.L.F brushes :


E.L.F eyeshadow brush.
I've had this brush since I started doing makeup, and its my favourit brush. I never have shedding problems with this and super duper easy to clean. Its for only 1$ and I really recommend it!!




E.L.F "C" brush.
I love this brush also, what I use it for mainly is for the highlight in my inner corners. Again an amazing brush I purchesed and I belive it was about 3$ but I'm not very sure. But defenately pick it up!! :)




This is the E.L.F powder brush. Its has a flat top which is really great for picking up a bigger amount of product of the brush. I find it very similar to the Sigma buffing brush that alot of people use for liqued foundation. People also use this brush (E.L.F powder brush) for buffing their liqued foundation but I find it that its better for me to use it for regular powder.




This is one of my favourit brush for applying liqued foundations or cream blushes. And all the brushes I'm talking about are all very soft like the MAC brushes, this brush was 3$ and I will always
stick to it. <3



And the last brush is the eye contour brush. I love this to defind my crease or even apply a darker color and my outercorner. This brush is for 3$.




Thank you for reading this post and please remember to follow this beauty blog for more fun and interesting posts! stay tuned!!

GoldenRose: Haul/Mini Review

Hi beauty lovers!! I'm back with a new post :). So today I will be showing you what I got from GoldenRose 2 days ago. LETS GET STARTED!!
That a pretty small haul lol..but I also will be reviewing them since I tried them all out when I got home since I was pretty excited!! LOL.




UltraBrilliantVolumeTube ( Cant remember price ) NO. 18

So first I got the Ultra Brilliant Volume Tube lipgloss thing. And its the color number 18. Its kinda sad they dont name their products tho. I didnt know what to choose at the store and the woman there had an amazing lip color on her lips, and she actully had this on. So I decided to get it. Its a very pretty color looks very dark on the swatch on the back of my hand which the picture will be down below. BUT it looks very natural on my lips which will be also down below! :)

Swatch on my lips! :D



Next, I just needed a new liqued eyeliner since my old one dried out ( it wasnt a good one anyways! ).
So I went with this one! I think its a great liqued eyeliner even tho it was quiet expensive but it was defenately worth it, I know they have another one with a thicker brush which I will purchase when this one dried out.

Thats how the brush looks like, which I really dislike because if
I want a thicker line I can just use more side of the brush
( if that makes any sence ) but the brush itself is very short.

Swatch of the liqued eyeliner at back of my hand.
It looks kinda shiny before it dried as seen in the
picture but it dries matte. :)




THIRD item is the waterproof eyeliner, and mine is number 07. I LOVE THIS THING! Stays on my waterline the whole entire day and i chose this color just for spring and summer. Its just such a fun color to rock and I FLIPPING LOVE IT!!

LASTLY, is a nailpolish, I wanted a color for spring and I thought it was perfect. BUT when I put 2 coats it was more of a fall color so when I wear it I will sheer it out for spring. But I still have a spring nail color since my sister bought a pink and orange that day and she lets me use them sometimes LOL!

Nail polish NO.234
The brush, I like that its very thin so I can get to the
corners of my nail! :D



SOO..I really hope you enojoyed todays post, be sure to follow me for more interesting stuff even FASHOIN!! :D please leave requests in the comment section and give me an idea of what my next post should be on! BYE!! <3
