I got the pleasure to check out a new cosmetics line called Glitz N Glam Cosmetics.
I just have to dish! This is such a cute new line!

I tested out 5 mineral shadows from the I-Lites Collection,

information about each product and price is available on the website
.

Please check out the video to see the products I tried, my thoughts, and a tutorial look using these cosmetics. Thank you!

Nice Full Jars and fun names!

Each shade was shimmery and a beautiful unique blend!

It is hard to choose a favorite but I'd have to be a tie between the top shade

Sassy and the fourth shade Lust. They both are shades I haven't came across yet.

Great addition to my bag.

Grace from the I-Lites Collection. Peachy Orange with green and orange shimmers.

Jazzy from the I-Lites Collection. Lavender shade with pink and blue shimmers.

Lust from the I-Lites Collection. Burnt Orange with red shimmer.

Envy from the I-Lites Collection. Blue Green/Aqua Shade with turquoise shimmer.

Sassy from the I-Lites Collection. Purple/Sangria shade with green and red shimmers. Beautiful!!

All are so beautiful and a great addition to my collection.

Defiance

      When I was younger, I always loved the huge hand painted sign across the corner of Clinton and Fort St alongside a brick building overlooking the Clinton St bridge. Everyone seen it and knew it was there. It was huge and said, "Defiance, A Great Place to Live". Years ago the building suffered a devasting fire that destroyed the entire thing unfortunatly, but is still an ever clear inspiration in my mind. I always wanted to be an artist and wanted to be able to have an opportunity to do something that awesome someday. I would still like to hand paint something like that for my city but until then I did a makeup look. The original idea for this look was I wanted to do something that would be inspired from my home town Defiance, Ohio.

    The name Defiance means a lot to me as well.
Defiance is a noun that defined means the act or example of defying; a bold resistence to an opposing force or authority. To challenge, resist, and regard.
I like to think I wasn't born here and still here for no reason, because everything and everyone has a purpose in this world. This all helps me to keep it in mind to not hold back and defy expectations. The founder of my town said (Anthony Wayne) "I defy the English, Indians, and all the devils of hell to take it." I couldn't be more inspired. I like to live like each day could be my last and I have a lot in here to give before I'm done.

    I wanted my look to display the colors, name, and flavor I think my town has. I have seen many artists do graffitti looks on their face, lips, eyes and had to have a look like that for my portfolio as well as an inspired piece of my town. Defiance, Ohio.

Maybe this will inspire your own graffitti look. <3

My Lady Gaga 2009 VMA Inspired Look

 I love me some Lady Gaga and from time to time since she has been out, I get called Lady Gaga! Maybe its the similar body type, blonde hair, big eyes? or my need to dress and look as I please. I am not scared to express myself (madonna)! <3 This look is for a celebrity look a like competition so I decided to become her since so many give me that reference.


I chose her look from the 2009 VMA's. She wore like 7 different outfits maybe more but the makeup look stayed the same. I tried my best to mimick her look.

 Lady Gaga at the 2009 VMA's

Her performance ended bloody! <3

For my look I just used a white lace curtain I had hanging up, it actually looks extremely similar to the lace that was used for one of her costumes that evening, and wrapped that around me and place on my head. I also used halloween blood for the last few pictures.
This is a really easy look to accomplish.

Face: Loreal True Match Ivory Foundation, Moi Minerals HD Powder and blush Affection
Lips: LA Colors clear lipgloss
Eyebrows: BH Cosmetics Neutral Palette and Wet n Wild Taupe Liner
Eyes: ELF Black cream shadow, Wet N Wild Don't Steal My Thunder Palette (black and white), LIT Cosmetics Gunsmoke glitter and Lit Kit, Ulta Mascara, Nyx Milk Pencil

Shop Lit: www.litcosmetics.com
Shop Moi Minerals: www.moiminerals.com www.etsy.com/shop/moiminerals

 Like that pink? I know, I should of curled it better, but it is done... lol
I only used my loose blush Affection from Moi Minerals and hair gel. I took a bit ofthe pigment in my hands and mixed in the gel. Rubbing your hands together massage into your hair. You can use this on ANY hair color for a tinted looked. I may just go rainbow one of these days. This is temporary and will wash out. Be careful on really light hair though, it can stain if you are using true micas.

I love Gaga <3

Now for the performance look! I just added fake blood.

 Yes I squirted it in my eye! Burned like hell... but I got the picture!! lol

Wet N Wild FLORA Collection Look and Tutorial

This is what the FLORA Collection looks like from Wet N Wild. You get a full sized nail polish, lip gloss, blush, and eyeshadow palette. I found mine at Rite-Aid,. There is also another collection called FAUNA, that I will share with you soon. I love these products already and think its a steal at $4.99. (For this look I am featuring the Wet N Wild products I used.)

I also invite you to watch the video tutorial.

I used Wet N Wild Foundation and Concealer on my skin today.

Using the combination of the black shimmer pencil #154 and black liquid mega liner really gives that

BOLD line that I love.

Wet N Wild mega plump mascara made my natural lashes nice and full.

Using the single shadow Sugar was a great highlighter for this look.

A nice bold lip with 24 Carrot Gold megalast lipstick.

A closer look at the trio palette Flora.

My Beauty Addiction GLITTER palettes Review

I was incrediably impressed with these new pressed glitter palettes from My Beauty Addiction.

www.mybeautyaddiction.com

They are absolutly perfect for any glitter lover for sure. I can't really pick my favorite palette because I love each one so much, if I only had gotten one I would of immediately bought the other two. I am far from a shopaholic or an impulse buyer so to me this was a must have.

The palettes themselves come in a sleek thin design with a mirror enclosed on the compact. They can easily fit into your case, bag, purse, wherever. Each palette is lightweight and mess free. The glitter comes off just as nice as using a loose glitter, almost nicer with more control. Each palette comes in corrinating colors of 6 that you can remove and mix. A little bit of this product goes a long way, you can use it subtle or dramatically, the more you use the brighter the color.

The Glitter Fix Glitter Adhesive is perfect for this product. It holds the glitter in place perfectly and a little goes a long way.

Awesome!! Trays can be interchanged with the other glitter palettes so you can mix and match.

 Love it, so thin and sleek! Fits right in my makeup belt or case.

Swatchy!!

These are so much prettier in person, I'm super happy! <3

 Here is a look I created using the blue glitter palette as well as My Beauty Addiction shadows 3am, Midnight Kiss, and Mermaid with Color Me Mauve on my cheeks.

Stay Glamorous,

Lindsay
