True Beauty

Neon, yes neon ...

Neon nails can be found pretty much everywhere these days. With summer in full effect, why not brighten up with some fun Highlighter colours!? I say the brighter ... the better.

Smashbox must haves!

Being the product/makeup junkie that I am ... I feel that it's always appropriate to share the good steals, deals and must haves. In particular, Smashbox cosmetics. Recently I purchased a few products from the stunner line and now I'm hooked. These 3 items are now in my "I simply cannot do without" category.

#1) Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer
I have always heard so much about this product and I thought it was finally time to give it a shot! The silky, smooth primer is full of antioxidants and vitamins, allowing the perfect canvas for makeup application. It's unique formula also helps diminish the appearance of fine lines and pores, all while keeping makeup in place. Personally, I love it. It helps with shine, makeup longevity and overall my skin feels like velvet. For consumer reviews and more info, check out www.smashbox.com

#2) Smashbox Limitless-Long Wear Lip Gloss with SPF 15
Lip gloss is my weakness and for anyone who knows me well ... you too are aware of this. I must have at least 20 different kinds in my trusty makeup kit. I like to think it's because I was always on the hunt for the "prefect one"! I can honestly say that the Limitless-Long Wear Gloss from Smashbox is my new number one. It has the perfect amount of "stick" and goes on quite sheer. I will not be replacing this one anytime soon.

#3) Smashbox Cream Eye Liner
When is comes to eye liners and shadows, I love to blend. Keep it natural looking and not too harsh. The Cream Eye Liner is perfect for this! Apply it along the lash line with a small angle brush for fuller looking lashes, OR try blending the cream with your finger tips to create a smokey, soft shadow. It can be used in so many ways and the best part, it stays! No annoying crease lines that you would get with a regular powder shadow/liner.
