Today's MakeUp Look!

This is the eye look i am going out with today. Out for the afternoon with one of my girlfriends.

Review: Fresh Paint "Matte Topcoat"

I recently purchased Fresh Paint's Matte Topcoat. I had never tried a matte topcoat so for $2.00 at Five Below I thought I would give it a shot. I have purchased several of their others colors and really liked them. I have to say I'm not quite sure about this product, but I think that is just my personal opinion. I am so used to glossy nails the finish of my polish now kind of throws me off a little. Almost like and "unfinished" look. Though I think this would look a lot better if you put it over a dark polish, where I (as you can see in the picture) put it over a light Spring time color. 





This polish does go on very easily and evenly, and dries quickly so you don't have much time to smudge it (which in my case is a very good thing). 

When it first dries it seems a little more Matte then after a day or tow of wear... it starts to get a little shinier. 

All in all, putting my personal tastes aside, if you love the Matte look, this would be a very good polish for you. I on the other hand prefer a "glossier" polish. 

I would give this product an 8/10.

#BzzAgent

I have just recently signed up with a company called BzzAgent. As well as reviewing make-up I will now be reviewing any products that BzzAgent sends me. After much deliberation and thinking.. I may add a few more words to the name of my blog... such as Caits beauty blog and other things... I will have to think more on it. Any suggestions are welcome!!

Product Review: ELF Cream Eyeliner

I have had this product a little over a month now. I couldn’t be happier with it. I have heard a lot of people say that theirs is dried out. Mine have not. I would also like to give those people who are worried about it drying out a little tip: Add a little bit of clear makeup primer to the top of it and spread it around. Just so it covers it. It will help re-moisturize the product, without hurting the integrity of it.
ELF Cream Eyeliner: 5/5 Stars
I will be showing a comparison of this product to AVON’s SuperShock Cream eyeliner. Just to give you all an idea.

Avon’s Super Shock Crème Eyeliner in Blackened Metal- This product is flaky and hard. Even when it was brand new it never gave me the color and pigmentation I wanted.
Here are ELF’s Cream Eyeliner in Coffee and Black:

You can tell by the pigmentation just how great and smooth these eyeliners go on. As you can see from the pictures, I have used quite a bit of these, and I don’t have a bad word to say about them. I would recommend these to anyone who is looking for a cream eyeliner. Plus- at $3.00 a product, you just can’t beat it.

A Little Preoccupied…

As I mentioned in my last post, my life goes in phases. Don’t worry. I haven’t forgotten about all of you. I have been having a hard time trying to figure out what to do my next video on… I was thinking a classic smokey eye. I’ve seen plenty of terrible videos, and some good ones, Maybe I’ll try one out for size.

My preoccupation in the past few weeks has been none other than a Television show. My every extra second of the day has been spent watching Smallville. I have to say, I’m surprised I never watched it while it was actually on TV, but In a way I guess I am glad I didn’t do that. The episodes really leave you hanging there.

I’m hoping to get back into the swing of things very soon… And I think in the next few days you will see more updates from me. I will be getting anew phone, so I’m hoping to do more “spontaneous posts”, and I’m thinking of branching off not just from Beauty, but to other things in my life that I enjoy. Discussing a little bit more about my life, my decisions and such… that way when I get going on one of my phases, I will still be able to talk to all of you on a regular basis. I think I like that idea.

Writing gives me sort of an inner peace I suppose. Keeps me grounded. I just wish I was better at it… I have a million different ideas running through my brain all the time, I wish they would just slow down so I could get them down on paper. Maybe I could start doing “Story time Blogs”? Where I put a little excerpt of what I would like to write about down here? See what I mean about my mind going a million miles a minute? My thoughts end up all crazy jumbled. This is what my brain is like. Constantly jumping to one thing or another.

Lately my sleeping patterns have been all sorts of wonky. staying up all night long and into the early afternoon and then sleeping all day. I guess you could say that 3rd shift is in my nature. I’m trying to break myself of this habit. Though I have never been a morning person, and never probably will be. I enjoy seeing the sunrise… I just enjoy seeing it from the other direction.

Well, I suppose that is enough of my rambling on and on for today. Maybe I’ll check in later and let you guys know how I feel about the 3rd season of Sherlock. It is currently what I am watching wholly wait for season 6 of Smallville. I just can’t get over those brainy guys HAHA.

Thanks for Reading!

Love; Cait
