Aqua Eyes: Make Up For Ever's Waterproof Eyeliner.

Click image to enlarge for detail. Meet Aqua Eyes by +MAKE UP FOR EVER OFFICIAL . These intense waterproof eyeliners feature a creamy texture that leads to an easy application as it never tugs at my delicate eye skin or skips across folds and wrinkles. Even on my oily eyelids, I never have to worry about transfer or disappearance. They stay put. 

A Sweet Heart Polish Mani Monday

I could not wait to get this lacquer on my nails. I was crazy for all of the glitter, it was very OH MY GOD.... SHINY! You know what I am talking about. Disneyland or Bust is a mix of neon glitter with black mouse heads and rainbow shimmer in a clear suspension base. I start with 3 coats of Fantom by LVX for pure opacity. I let it fully cure before I added Disneyland or Bust , I didn't want any pulling or sliding of the base colour. Click image to enlarge for detail. See my review of Fantom, here . I followed the instructions, roll the polish before use to distribute glitter, and I love the result. This is one of my favourite lacquers. 5-Free, vegan, gluten-free, cruelty free and hand made, Sweet Heart Polish is going to be my new go-to for lacquer bliss. Retailing for $9 on +Etsy by yours before it sells out. xoxo •Nancy-Lee

Tat2U swatches: Rock Candy + Mucho Caliente.

From my  +PHAMExpo  2014 haul, I present  +Tat2U Makeup  and the AWESOMESAUCE prezzie I won from their Instagram giveaway! Click here to see the whole haul. Rock Candy  from  tat2U 's   Matte Lipstick collection  has absolutely no slip. This lipstick is best applied with a brush as it is so extremely dry, you run the risk of breaking the lipstick during it's application. It is completely unforgiving to dry lips kin so make sure you exfoliate your lips first. This collection of cosmetics is designed to not budge and it lives up to its name. I've experienced very minimal transfer of  Rock Candy  to my cup. I must note, there's a noticeable odor that I am finding a bit distracting. It would prevent me from wearing or buying this formula again.
