Another Bright Look and A Video! Gold, Orange, Pink

I was online last night talking myself out of placing a order from Sugarpill. I have been convinced that I NEED Goldilux Loose shadow and its driving me crazy to see all these gorgeous looks with it and still not having it to call my own…

Today I was going though a few makeup items and came across a Barry M color that I forgot I had. A beautiful gold color #96 which helped me achieve the true gold look I had wanted with the Goldilux! Now I am not sure how this compares to the sugarpill color. But It got the job done for me! Check it out! Read the rest of this entry »

Gift/Swap from England!

I swapped with the lovely Louise from Planet Lou Lou Land Blogspot! We took some time to find stuff for each other to swap which made it fun to keep looking for fun items for each other. We both weren’t super specific on what we wanted so it was fun to get what we thought the other would like! I was so excited to actually receive her package! It was filled with so many wonderful surprises.

First of all a wonderful letter from Louise, 3 postcards to see where she is from, a cute England bear keychain and then all the lovely makeup. It was so wonderful to see a piece of where she lives.. not just the products!

Everything that was sent was just amazing and I have already started playing with it all! Thank you so much Lou Lou for an amazing swap!!

Here are swatches from the eyeliners and lip products are Gosh 25 Extreme Art Liner, Opia Kohl Pencils in yellow and purple. These didnt come with color names but they are very close to the primary color. Both colors are super pigmented and smooth! Collection 2000 lipstick in tease and 2true lipstick in No. 8, Barry M Lipgloss in shade 824. This stuff I love. It smells like strawberries and I wanna eat it! lol. It has true glitter and looks amazing on its own or over a lipstick.

Pigment Shadows above are Barry M Dazzledust in 928, Collection 2000 Dazzle Me pigments in Heavenly and Dreamland. These are all so pretty and such a nice texture! Great Pigmentation too!

and two shadow palettes. There was also a shimmer palette by Me Me Me you can see above in the top picture but I forgot to take the second picture. It is like a Bobbi Brown shimmer brick.

This swap was definitely so much fun to do! Its always fun to get your hands on the fabulous jewels that are not always available to you in your local area! I have had such amazing swap experiences thus far through blogging and have made great friends along the way as well!

Thanks so much Louise for another great experience! All if you haven’t had a chance to meet Louise, check out her blog here!

Gift/Swap from Scotland!

I arranged a swap with Lyndsay from Robert Smith Mistress Blog. She is Super Fabulous and her blog topics are always new and interesting! One of my favorite blogs to read! If you haven’t already, Check her out!!
When arranging the swap Lyndsay and I talked about brands and items we were interested in that we couldn’t access at home. We then discussed colors and kinds of products we liked. Last but not least, set a budget and then went shopping!
I had told Lyndsay I was interested in Barry M and Sleek Cosmetics. I love bright colors and the things she sent were completely perfect!
First off, She sent such a sweet card along with the package and check out the amazing picture she drew in. I love it so much! I made sure it was in every picture for your viewing pleasure since I knew you all would love it too! The time she put into this made everything 10x more special!
Now, on to the swap items! First picture is of Barry M Cosmetic items 1- Lip paint 144 in Cerise Pink 2- Lip Paint 129 in Palest Lavender 3- Dazzledust 77 Orange 4- Dazzledust 93 Block Blue.
Next Items are from Sleek Cosmetics. I have been seriously lemming the 1- Sleek Acid Palette for a while now and Lyndsey found it for me! I’m beyond excited to play with this. She also sent fabulous pigments from the same brand in 2- 697 Livid Lilac and 3- 690 So Sleek! They are gorgeous!
An Amazing Dark Grey shadow from Pure Cosmetics. The color I believe is called Make Me Pure How cute is the embossing in the shadow!
Lastly from Collection 2000 Cosmetics 1- Lipstick in Red Red and 2- Pigment in Sugar Plum.
Lyndsay! I couldn’t have been more excited to receive the items you sent! It was easy to tell how much thought went into your package! It means so much. It was so much fun swapping and getting to learn more about you during the process!! Thanks again!
The pictures posted here are very close to actual color, however I will update with swatches in the next couple days….

A few Barry M items… Swatches and Review

During the last sale at Asos.com the site was offering free shipping to the US. So I had the opportunity to order some Barry M products to try at a lower cost! I ordered 2 Lipsticks or Lip Paints, 2 Eye Dusts and a Glossy Tube.

Marsh Mellow lip paint was my definite “have to try” item. I had seen swatches and it looked like a great nude. The color really reminds me of MAC Fleshpot lipstick. The texture is similar as well. I also picked up Pillar Box Red. This is also very pretty. But not different from others in my collection. It is bright and is a great red for daytime. In the swatch it looks kinda orange. But its really not. I think it might be because of the colors swatched next to it in the picture. Yay, more Red’s and Nudes. Complete opposites, but both must haves for my collection. See swatches below.
The Glossy Tube is pretty! Color is Pale Strawberry Shimmer. It reminds me of the MAC 3D glosses. It looks really metallic in the tube and in the swatch but not so much on the lips. I put this color on top of the marsh mellow lip paint and loved the combination. Looks yummy like cotton candy:) The Barry M Dazzle dusts amaze me. They are straight color. What you see in the jar is what you get and a little goes a long ways. I got 96- Gold and 51- Mushroom (swatches) I know I will have fun with these! Cant wait to try some more from this line…
