Pink Obsession - Tom Ford lipsticks

The texture of these lipsticks are so creamy that I had to get this filled with only pink Tom Ford lipsticks. I LOVE PINK to the pint where its an overdose of pink in most of my collections. These lipsticks are pricey but we all know high end designers cost high prices, but I love it so I decided to share my obsession with you guys as I received my last two lipsticks to complete this tray of lipsticks.

Hope you enjoy!!

A Perfume every sophisticated confident woman must have

I was recently gifted this and in my opinion No. 1 from Clive Christian is the best perfume I have ever owned. The scent is unique and it's silage is enormous it lasts 12 hours minimum in my skin as its very potent.  I get so many compliments when I wear this particular fragrance, its a sophisticated scent that I wear with confidence and it acts as a magnet because both male and female always stop me and ask me what I am wearing. Ideally, I think it works well with my body chemistry.

Therefore, I would recommend that you test it before purchasing because this is not the regular $100US bottle of perfume. This is a fragrance that is rich and comes from a luxurious line or pure perfume.

Price: $865.00US

Serene and sophisticated with ylang-ylang at the heart, the perfume weaves a slow enchantment, unfolding to reveal a gentle Tahitian vanilla and a heart of rosa centafolia—associated with Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty. No. 1 for women radiates like a weightless and invisible, flawless diamond necklace.

Kylie Cosmetics

Finally!!

I finally got my hands on this these kits from Kylie cosmetics. I ordered Mary Jo K and Like lip-gloss for my first attempts. Mary Jo K is somewhat like a Ferrari fire red and like lip gloss and very neutral, its the darkest shade in the glosses.

The shades are perfect, they are bright and I believe its suitable for all skin tones. Personally, I found it quite flattering on my skin tone. We all know there are a lot of dupes for the Kylie cosmetics shades that are currently available however, the formula is completely different. Kylie cosmetics is thick, creamy, pigmented and the scent o my its amazing.

The only problem I experienced with the matte lipstick and lip gloss is the matte tend to flake like any other matte lipstick. Other than that the coverage is amazing and the staying power on your lips is also good, so I would recommend these lip kits for those who are considering.

Sunglasses Craze

"Nothing really completes an outfit like a mirrored aviator sunglasses"

It’s that time of year again, I slay in my favorite shades and decks them out for an all-out special edition adaptation. 

A series that highlights the silhouettes’ design with unique craft for every face, it is a must have.  Vacation sunglasses always add value to your outfit of the day and I have been obsessed with sunglasses lately. I have over 30 pairs of sunglasses from high end designers to cost effective sunglasses that I love. 

Mirrored aviators .... I have them in every possible color,shape and size and I continue to add to my collection. If you have an obsession for mirrored aviators then you would love my "go to" for this year. 

These bad boys gets a lot of attention ...If you are interested to see the rest of my collection and the NEW ADDITIONS(I recently purchased 3 new sunnies) to the family feel free to comment below.

Let's begin, here goes:

L'oreal Pro Matte Infallible 

My everyday go to, gym, work etc

Coverfx Natural finish

 (This bad boy is the bomb... love it)

Water - based liquid foundation with medium coverage, it can be built up t get a flawless soft and dewy look. Trust me you would not regret it.

Becca Ultimate Coverage 

(Coverage magic)

Who say coverage baby..... when in the mood for a full coverage look this is my go to. This foundation is breathable and you don't need to use a lot to get coverage.

Nars All Day Luminous 

I have combination skin but I love a dewy look now. However to avoid looking like you "frying bake" lol I prime my skin with two primers. This shows the luminous effect of the foundation.

Dose of Colors Review

Hello Beautiful people,

The hype about matte liquid lipsticks.......

I can honestly say that I have tried every formula under the sun and I can officially say my love for lipstick, lipgloss and makeup in general in indescribable.  My absolute favorite lip products are lip stains (matte lipsticks).  There is just something about a no fuss, long wearing product that just does it for me.  It’s probably because I’m always on the go and cannot be bothered with constantly touching up my lips. 

I am a product junky and I am always interested in trying new products because I am a risk taker.  Couple days ago I added a few to my collection from Dose of Colors.  This company currently offers  lipsticks (matte and non-matte), lip glosses, highlighters, eyeshadows and lashes. They are cruelty free and vegan which I absolutely love.

My recent purchase includes:

1. Kiss of Fire Liquid lipstick 
2. Coral Crush Liquid Lipstick 
3. Cotton Candy Lipgloss
4. Sorbet Lipstick 

What I love most about these liquid matte/gloss lipsticks is that the formula applies smoothly, its long lasting, its literally STAINS, the color is highly pigmented and it wears comfortably.  It's a must have for makeup addicts so if you don't have this to your collection, jump right into it. 

I love it ..... 

Black Dress Slayy

The perfect attitude, confidence and the right amount of sass gets the attention.

This dress is beyond perfection and fits my curvy Caribbean girl body like a glove.

I slay my outfits from swimwear, skirts and dresses I rock it ever so fashionably!!! I mean, whether you are headed on vacation, hanging with the girls, or headed out to a special event always dress to impress. It is always better to over dress than under dress.

 Are you ready to see how I slayyyy this look?

 

 

 

Friday Workflow

Hello Beautiful People .........it's FRIDAY !!!

While most of you are excited for the weekend to socialize and relax my ultimate goal is focusing on building my empire. As a young Entrepreneur, an MBA student and employee it takes hard work, dedication and commitment to achieve your desired goals in life. Although some people assume you get everything easy, it's because they really don't know the background of a strong independent woman. It's a common slang in Trinidad to say "the struggle is real" and I have learnt that nothing comes easy. So I always advise young adults and children who admire me to work hard, dream big and live life to the fullest.

 

It's going to be a late night and I must have my essentials for the grind -  MacBook pro, Louis Vuitton Damier handbag and my recently gifted Mont Blanc pen.

xoxo
