What's the Deal Dreadful? Review of LiveWire Beauty's Professional Eyelash Curler.

**Press**

      Hello again lovelies,
          I am back with my third and final review of the day before I crawl back into my bed and attempt to hibernate. For list last and final review of the day, I am reviewing LiveWire Beauty's Professional Eyelash Curler.  I will admit that I am a falsie girl. I have horribly straight short lashes that refuse to keep a curl and apparently my eye is larger so that the outer lashes never really fit in curlers.I was also super skeptical about the aspect of never having to replace a pad again. So I wanted to try this out. I will say that I am super surprised and pleased with this curler! It arrived quickly in an attractive box. The curler itself is sleek and stylish black and silver so I can easily use it on clients without them focusing on the a bright handle. I found the finger grips comfortable however I wished they were a little bit larger to for my thumb. This may be a little snug for someone with larger hands/fingers. The curler curled all of my lashes, which I was really impressed with , easily with no pinching. The curling movement was smooth and easy without any jarring or jerking. The pad itself is comfortable and didn't pull at my lashes when I was done curling. When I am done curling my lashes I wipe the curler down with alcohol to keep it clean. I haven't seen any issues with the pad breaking down with use as others do. It may take a long while if any more me to see the difference in the curling pad so it may last forever with proper cleaning.



   If you would like to pick up your own LiveWire Beauty's Professional Eyelash Curler you can do so on Amazon. It is $27.99 however it is currently on sale for $14.99. I hope that you enjoyed this installment of What's the Deal Dreadful, until next time lovelies!

What's the Deal Dreadful? Review of Izy Trends Lovely Lashes Eyelash Curler

*Press*

   Hello Lovelies!
       I am back with another review. This time I am reviewing Izy Trends' Lovely Lashes Eyelash Curler. As most of you know who follow me on social media, I am a makeup promoter and hopeless makeup addict. The one thing that I have always had issues with was my lashes. They are short and straight and have NO curl what so ever. I have tried everything. I tried other lash curlers and they were always to small for my eyes and pinched and were really uncomfortable. But when I figured I would try eyelash curlers again when given the opportunity to review these. I am super happy I did. Not only did these fit my eye shape, they didn't pinch or pull. They were super easy to use and the rubber padding didn't stick to my lashes. I love the fact that it comes with an additional pad for when you need to replace it.






 If you would like to pick up your own Izy Trends Lovely Lashes Eyelash Curler you can pick one up on Amazon. It is $25.95 however it is currently on sale for $10.00. I hope that you enjoyed this installment of What's the Deal Dreadful, until next time lovlies!

Attack of the Gunpowder Holographic glitter eye of the day...

*Press*

   Hello Lovelies!
    I am back again with another EOTD this time from BeautyBarBaby. I have been on a glitter kick lately since I was trying to get the perfect holiday glitter look.

I swear this is my makeup motto..


And honestly, who am I kidding? I am a glitter whore.

Hold on to your sword Ned, GLITTER is COMING!



I just simply can't get enough of it.


See even HE MAN gets me. He LOVES glitter too!



I want to GLITTER ALL THE THINGS!


I do this same pose in my bathroom when I am about to apply glitter and this battle cry  also accompanies it.


But enough of my glitter obsession and on with the look!







I used the following products for this look:
Lunatick Cosmetic Labs Primer
BeautyBarBaby (BBB) Cream & Sugar     
BBB Striptease
BBB Rated R
BBB Poison Apple
BBB Black Velvet
BBB Gunpowder Holographic Glitter (applied over Black Velvet )
BBB Bling Bling Glitter Adhesive.


I wish that I could capture the shine of the glitter with a front shot of my makeup. But since I can't I will just have to settle for side makeup shots as well so you can see the SPARKLE!


If you want to pick up some BeautyBarBaby you can do so here on Etsy. You can also follow them via Facebook, their Facebook Fangroup, Instagram and Twitter. I hope that you enjoyed this look and remember GET YOUR GLITTER ON!

In the Pursuit of Fabulous: Review of Moon Princess Lashes and Flower Powder Brush Kabuki from the Born Pretty Store!

*press sample*
Hello Lovelies!
   I am back again today this time with a review of some awesome goodies from the Born Pretty Store. While I could have sworn that I wrote a blog post up about these before I can't seem to locate it and due to all of the wedding planning chaos the post could have disappeared on the hard drive. Three weekends to go until I can reclaim my sanity and not have to plan any wedding stuff EVER again. I also wanted to upload a video review for both of these items but I am in dire need of a tripod since I CAN'T handle the shaky camera review. It drives me nuts personally so I won't do it. So hopefully soon I will get a tripod and get back to making videos and tutorials again since I miss it. But enough about that, on to the pretties!

   I picked out two items from the Born Pretty Store to review. From the time I placed my order until I got the goodies in my hot little hands was about three weeks which is pretty good considering that this was an international order. I was super thrilled to get some new lashes since some of my pairs where in dire need of replacement. While they are labeled "Moon Princess Fashion Lashes" they are listed on the Born Pretty Site as Handmade False Eyelashes #D-3.   Th
The packaging

Out of the package

Individual lash! Look at the length and thickness!

  While lashes look great in the package I want to see them on to get a better picture of how they would look on me. So here are some looks done with these gorgeous lashes!



  While these lashes may look super dramatic in the packaging they can be used for everyday wear and with more neutral based looks. They look amazingly  natural and will compliment any look.  They are priced at $8.69 at the Born Pretty Store and while essentially I thought that was expensive for a pair of lashed they are completely worth it. I totally need another pair for the wedding.


 Next, we have the Mini Lovely Floral Powder Blush Brush with Free Cosmetic Bag. which lists on the site as $9.76 which is pretty great for a kabuki brush

     I was concerned that there would be an issue with the floral design of this kabuki with possible streaking and uneven application of blush. However, there was no problem whatsoever. It works wonderfully whether you are applying blush, contouring, applying finishing powder or applying mineral makeup. It is super soft however still firm enough to get the job done. This is my first ever kabuki brush and now I need to have more one! You can pick up this brush, lashes and many more goodies at the Born Pretty Store. Be sure to use the discount code KLH10 for 10% off your order and free shipping! I hope that you enjoyed this review! Until next time lovelies!

Sailor Moon Cyrstal EoTD Series: Mercury Star POWER!

*Purchased*
Hello Lovelies!
   Welcome back to the next installment of my Sailor Moon Crystal EOTD Series! Now, if you checked out my Guest Blogger post on Toxid Lotus, you would have seen the first EOTD in the series. But I am super excited with the new reboot of the Sailor Moon series, with Sailor Moon Crystal so I had to do a series of looks in order to celebrate.



 I am hoping to do each Scout as or before they appear. (There will be other characters added as well cause we all know that villains need love too! ) At the end of the first episode of Crystal (no worries there are no spoilers) you see the back of Ami at the school.



  So of course I automatically had to to Sailor Mercury themed makeup next!

I love Mercury. She is perfect combination of awesome blue hair and brains.
I love the new artwork style it is so similar to the manga...

The classic Sailor Mercury, the manga version and finally Crystal.
  But I had a dilemma! I had only seen the first episode and there is limited images of her on the web since she hasn't appeared "officially" in the series. But I wanted to do a look for her NOW!

So I decided up to take the plunge and try the Sailor Mercury Transformation!

So enough of my blathering and on with the makeup pictures!


Behold the Sailor Mercury EYE!

My detailing needs some work however I am extremely pleased with this look


And finally the giant collage of everything!
I used the following products on this look:
Candy Blossom Cosmetic's Fluff, Lotus, Fairyland Green, Halo, Angel eyes, Intergalatic, Atlantis, Mermaid's Kiss and Violets.
Dots, brows and detail done with Wolfe Fx Essential Palette
Moon Princess lashes from the Born Pretty Store  (use KLH10 for 10% off and free shipping )
I am also wearing Kawayii Snow Blue lenses from Uniqso (use code dreadfullydivine for 10% off your order)

Well I hope that you enjoyed this Sailor Mercury installment and until next time lovelies!

Guest Posting over at Toxid Lotus and the start of a new EOTD Series!

Hello Lovelies!
      I am super excited to share with you my first guest posting ever! Luna , from Toxid Lotus, contacted me about this amazing opportunity and I was THRILLED at the chance since I have been a long time fan of her blog. So after the initial thrill and excitement wore off I was then stuck with the dilemma of what to do!  But I did manage to figure something out so head over there to see what I came up with! You can check out my post here.




Until Next Time Lovelies!

Happy Fourth of July and a couple EOTDS!

*Press, purchased and affiliate*
Hello lovelies!
    Happy 4th of July and to celebrate I have not one but TWO EOTDs from two different companies. I wanted to do both a super dramatic and a wearable look for the 4th so I decided to do two different ones. I also did both of these looks for collaborations on Facebook so it killed several birds with two stones. But enough chattering on with the pictures!

Super dramatic fireworks inspired look

So of course we have to kick off with the super dramatic one. And truth be told, I am horribly stumped when it comes to traditional red, white and blue looks so I decided to go with a fireworks theme using those colors for this look.

I used the following products from Beauty Bar Baby *Press*
Black Velvet
Miss Daisy (highlight)
White Fairy Dust
Blue Fairy Dust 
Red Fairy Dust (all were mixed with a mixing medium and applied wet)

I also used the Wolfe Fx Essential Palette for my liner  *purchased*

and these lashes from the Born Pretty Store (use code KLH10 for a 10% off discount)
  *purchased & affiliate links*

My less dramatic other 4th inspired look
Here is my other 4th inspired look and I was going for something more "wearable".
For this look I used Dark Heart Designs *purchased*
Vampire Heart
Elizabeth
Grace (highlight) 
Rave 
Ultraviolet

I also used the same lashes from the Born Pretty Store that I used in the look above. 
*purchased & affiliate links*

    Granted, I would wear both of theses anywhere not everyone would. I even answered the door with both of these looks plastered on my eye when my windshield repair man came. I am sure that I am now on the list of crazy customers that that guy will tell his co workers. Did I tell him that I was doing looks for my blog? Nope. So I am sure he thinks that I am part of a Kiss Cover band or something. This is the same exact look that I had on my face when he interrupted my look (Granted he wasn't looking for my dad...)


Well I hope that you enjoyed this quick 4th of July post and I hope that everyone has a fun and safe weekend! Until next time lovelies!
