I received this product in my Influenster Holiday VoxBox and wanted to give you a more detailed review on what I thought about it. 
Quick Take: not sticky, go on smooth, smells yummy
Usage Tips: gives a sheer cover to lips, would be great on top of a nude lipstick
Love this gloss! packaging is very innovative and brings a new take on how it can be applied! The sponge applicator's unique shape makes it easy to apply the gloss without feeling like your leaving a lot of product behind to be put back in the tube. The shape of the bottle is great for flat surfaces so it wont go rolling away from you! Love the sweet candy vanilla smell!
The Verdict: will be purchasing more of these glosses!


Color: Nude York City

Halloween Flapper Girl inspired Makeup and Costume

Flapper Girl
Hollywood Glam




I through this look together last minute for a halloween party and it ended up turning out really cute! Its amazing what you can find in your own closet! I didn't have everything for the typical "flapper girl" but you could definitely tell what I was :). 

The dress I have had for years and have just never worn it. Last night was the perfect chance it put it to use! The pearl necklace I have also had for years, and actually made them myself. You can find pearl beads at almost any arts and crafts store. I paired the dress with some lace leggings (that were pretty itchy lol) threw on some black heals and called it a night! 

If your interested in seeing how to get this makeup look and to see what my actual outfit looked like, check out the video below.

O2B2 Tour: San Diego

If your looking for a makeup class to take, but not sure where to look, check out the Out of the Beauty Box Tour presented and taught by Koren (Enkoremakup) and Elissa (pursebuzz). They offer professional makeup classes for Bridal and Airbrush and also offer seminars to learn how to market yourself as a makeup artist. The cost of the classes by far out way the knowledge and goodies that you receive to get you on the path of makeup artistry. I completed both the bridal and airbrush classes!

Our final faces! The class was so much fun and so worth it!

Beauty Mixer BBC Party (Bows, Balloons and Cupcakes)
Poway, ca 
March 26, 2011

I had so much fun at this event! It was great being surrounded by people who have the same passion for all things beauty! It was held at the Bellus Academy in Poway, Ca, which is known as the Harvard of beauty schools. And i must say after taking a tour of the school, I can see where they get that from :). The school was so generous and had so many things to do to pamper yourself. Everything from deep hair treatments, massages, facials, manicures, and so much more! I unfortunately did not have time to receive any treatments, but I still enjoyed all the excitement  going on :)
