gold lips are pristine when done with the right colors. because it can be close to the color of skin for many women, it’s important to get a gold color that compliments your skin and does not wash you out.

ever since i saw this makeup tutorial video on youtube – an inspired angelina jolie makeup look – i’ve been in search of this great peach lip gloss! (more…)
when mac came out with it’s fifi line a few years ago, i quickly snatched up “totally it” lip gloss, though it was a more fuschia pink than this one, it made for “hello gorgeous” lips.
with spring time upon us, it’s time to get back to the bold pink lip, if you dare.
i do love my staple products. and though i’m what you could call “picky” about my hair products and what i use to treat my kinky, coils, i’m a lot more flexible when it comes to makeup. for me, makeup is a time to play and have fun and invoke your inner picasso!
while you can often find me circling the beauty isles at cvs, walgreens or one of my favorite places to buy makeup, walmart, picking up new items, there will always remain those staple items that i consider holy grail – that is, if they start to fail me! 
but these drugstore products so far have yet to let me down and after years of wear, i KEEP going back and continue to keep these items stocked in my bag.
these are my current and constant holy grails drugstore products…
this collection is def worth (5/5) loubies!
what say you, are you digging this from mac?

though i’m not a die hard mac fan – more of a seasonal one (seasonal = when i’m in the mood for makeup, not makeup determines my moods), i love their fun collections.
i don’t wear anything from the line for the face (too drag queenish and too heavy, imo) but i always do eye shadows and lipsticks. i think lillyland is going to appeal to all mac fans, from the hard core to the noobies. because of the colors – the soft, deep, pastels, these colors are easy to wear with any outfit or look, or to incorporate into any makeup collection.
granted, pastels can be a bit hard to pull off if you are too dark or too light, so those who fall in the middle of the skin color spectrum do have an advantage; however, these colors will work great on any skin because of the strong pigment. there are no ashy pinks here!
and the blushes are cream. cream means lasting power annnddd that you can also wear them on your lips – unless the package states otherwise. but i’m willing to bet that they won’t.
santa will be doing a night layover at mac counters everywhere to give surprises to all the girls and boys who wait patiently until December 26.
