LookBoutique@DuaneReade

Hey Guys

I am back I finally got a new camera, and I am using my 11 year old daughters lap top, still have a virus on my desktop, I am ready to dash it in the garbage. Trying to get an Apple computer this time around. Anywho I was browsing Temptalia page and she had a post about an e/s from Becca called Shangtung, as many of you know Sephora used to sell Becca, I wish they didn't get rid of it. So being the makeup addict that I am, LOL I went searching to see where its being sold, and come to find out they have a new beauty section in some Duane Reade stores that sells Becca, so you know I went calling to find a location. After work I went straight to 42nd Street, Grand Central in NYC.

OMG!!!!! It was a beautiful section that sells Becca, POP, Vera Moore, Pur Minerals, and a few others that I never heard of but they were nice. My mouth hit the floor who knew DR was getting so upscale. Got in the damn store didn't have the color e/s I was pissed, but I've always wanted to try Pur Minerals after hearing about it from MakeupbyRenRen, and Queen of Blending, I ended up getting the Start Now kit that has 4 pieces for $37.00 not bad at all, it has a Press Mineral Foundation which is a 4-in-1, Mineral Glow, Universal Marble Powder, and a Chisel Brush. Now the bigger size foundation was $23.00 so I opted to get the kit, which is a way better deal, just smaller size products.

So I will be trying this out for you guys and I will let you know what I think about it since I am getting into the mineral powder foundations. Below is a picture of what I got. Talk to you guys soon.

Mineral Powder Foundation

Hi Guys



Pray for me to continue to post on a regular basis, LOL.. As you may know I love liquid or cream foundations, but it has been so hot that I am trying not to wear so much foundation in this heat, I don't want to melt, LOL... I usually don't like to use mineral powder foundation, because it makes me look ashy and it just doesn't look right. I've bought from MAC, Prescriptives which I ended up returning, and this brand called Bella from ATL, which was the worse still have the damn thing just sitting there. So about 2 months ago I asked for a sample of the mineral powder from MAC, and decided to use it yesterday. And would you know I LOVE IT!!!!!! I think I was probably putting it on wrong and not buffing it in enough. I used the SS197 brush from Sigma (LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that brush) I have to get like 3 more. I think I found a new love in mineral powder, LOL. Can you guys suggest any other brands I should use besides MAC, Prescriptive done went out of business :((

Talk to you guys soon

Violetta Lips

Hey Guys

Hope all is well, just wanted to share a lipstick that I love, MAC's Violette l/s, you can only get this color at the PRO store, back in the days I would never wear a bright color like this, but since my journey with makeup, give me a bright color anyday, LOL. Here is my lip of the day, I am only wearing foundation, some blush, mascara, and my lips. Enjoy. By the way I got a JOB, I am so happy.......

Urban Decay

Hey Guys

I know long time, I have been busy trying to find a job going on a year next month that I was laid off, thank god unemployment is still coming. I actually had 2 interviews with MAC, but it has been 2 weeks now that I had the second interview and they haven't called back so I guess I was not in the running, I am not upset about it; will keep sending out my resume. This is giving me more confidence in what I want. I did my first test photo shoot a week ago and was nervous as all hell, but it turned out pretty good, I was putting on those lashes in one shot (I have my good and bad days with those damn things). Just wanted to share with you what I ordered from Sephora today since they have the family and friends 20% off. Check out these babies I bought can't wait for it to come. Aren't they beautiful, LOL. Until next time ladies,
Oh, as soon as I get the pictures of the photo shoot I will send you the blog site info so you can check it out. Chao!!!
