I need more palettes like the Kardashians need more clothes so why then am I obsessing over them so much lately?

I currently want the Tarte True Blood Palette, Urban Decay 15 Year Anniversary Palette, Bobbi Brown Bronze Tortoiseshell Palette and the Smashbox Photo Op Eye Palette for Blue Eyes.

Not sure If I’ll end purchasing any of them as I’m not sure which one I want the most.

I think it’s the Tarte one….no Urban Decay….No Tarte….

What are you obsessing over at the moment?

Please share!

I picked up this E.L.F. Studio Tinted Moisturizer at Target a few weeks ago, but I have to say I’m not a fan.

This product is much more moisturizer than anything else.

Maybe if you have perfect skin that just needs a little moisture you’d love this product.

But for me and my acne prone, less than perfect skin I hate it! HATE it!

I think this is the first product that I’ve hated in a long, long time.

Well, at least it was only $3.00.

I’ll go back to using my favorite tinted moisturizer ever, which is the Smashbox Sheer Focus.

They look similar in the packaging huh?

Trust me though they are nothing alike!!

Note to E.L.F: a tinted moisturizer should at least make my skin look a little bit better.

I mean come on….

Oh well, if you’re interested in trying this product it’s only $3.00 at Target.

Have you tried this product?

What were your thoughts?

This Collection looks so gorgeous. What do you think? Are you loving the Fall collection?

Smashbox has done it again. They have released another amazing collection that I’m loving.

Naked Beauty is a gorgeous collection of illuminating bronzers, creamy cheek colors, and barely there glosses.

This is the perfect collection for Summer.

You can view the entire collection here.

What do you think of Naked Beauty? Will you be picking up anything?

According to Smashbox makeup artists, the look to have emerged for spring is no doubt modern metallics.

Shades of gold, platinum, bronze and pewter illuminate eyes and create an overall look that shines.

And to celebrate that trend, Smashbox has introduced a Metallic Cream Eye Liner Palette with 10 shimmering shades. Use it to create a gorgeous bronzed look like the one pictured above.

Smashbox Metallic Cream Eye Liner Palette Retails for: $32.00 at Smashbox.com.

What do you think of the bronzed/metallic trend? I personally love it.

This look is absolutely gorgeous and it would be perfect for all of those Holiday Parties you’ll be attending this season. I love it! What do you think of this look?

I’m in love with luminizing/highlighting products and have quite a few. My two favorites being Benefit High Beam and Smashbox Artificial Light in Flash. They both give you that healthy natural glow without making you look like a grease ball. And for someone with oily skin that’s not an easy thing to achieve.

As you can see in the photo above the Smashbox product is slightly darker than the Benefit product and I like to use them in different ways. Artificial Light is wonderful to mix in with your liquid foundation or moisturizer for an all over glow. I like to apply high beam just on the cheekbones and cupids bow for that perfect highlight. They call it “supermodel in a bottle” for a reason!

Artificial Light is $24.00 for a 0.7 oz bottle. High Beam is $24.00 for a 0.45 oz bottle. Both at Sephora.com.

So which one do I prefer? I love them both, but if you only have room for one in your makeup collection I would say I reach for high beam more often. They’re both awesome though and you really can’t go wrong with either one.

Have you tried either of these products? Which one do you prefer?
