NEW 2017 TOO FACED HOLIDAY COLLECTION

Too Faced just came out with the most beautiful collection for the holidays. They include planners! What? I am drooling over this new collection. Is it selfish to want to buy it all for myself?

Tarte Magical Makeup Unicorn Brushes

Tarte just released their New Limited Edition Make Believe In Yourself Magic Wand Unicorn Makeup Brushes and Makeup! I felt like a little giddy girl. My love for fairy tales and makeup combined in one. Here's a review to see if they are worth the hype and money.

NEW SPRING MAKEUP TRENDS IN 2017 YOU HAVE TO TRY!



Is it officially time to retire your matte lipsticks and contour palette? I never thought I would see the day. I personally will still rock my mattes in every season, but based on the latest Spring trends there’s a new technique you have to try.

What's Inside My Makeup Bag


The weather is changing, which means your clothes, skin care routine, and makeup should too. Take a peek inside my makeup bag this season and see what I bring with me on the go.


Drugstore Beauty Highlight Must-Have

Makeup has gotten very expensive lately. A beauty routine can easily add up to over $100 nowadays. Realistically we want to look great without breaking the bank, but still look like a million bucks.  I like to find products that make me feel beautiful while still shopping on a budget. Here is an affordable highlighting stick you need to add to your makeup collection right now!


Shopping Haul: Websterspages, Sephora, MAC, and Ulta

On my latest trip to California to shoot with Maybelline, I met up with the super sweet Elle Fowler. We met up for drinks and even did a little shopping together. These are beauty products she absolutely loves and recommends. She also purchased some of my holy grail makeup, which we both filmed a haul to share with you! This is how excited I was ha ha. 

Kylie Jenner Inspired Makeup





Neutral colors for Fall are a must! Here is a fun makeup tutorial inspired by the gorgeous Kylie Jenner. I drew inspiration from her simple yet attractive makeup. The way she applies her lipstick is flawless. She wears it very naturally, to highlight and enhance your natural beauty. In this tutorial I am using all Rimmel London products, including some I can’t live without, especially for a girl like me with oily skin. My two favorite products were the Stay Matte Foundation primer, which can be worn before your liquid foundation or alone, and the Lipstick in Dusty Rose. It’s perfect for an everyday look. Comment down below and tell me what your favorite Rimmel London products are. 


Disclosure: This post was sponsored by Rimmel London Rockin’ Curves through their partnership with POPSUGAR Select. While I was compensated to write a post and create a video about Rimmel London, all opinions are my own.

I'm On Maybelline's Website!


Ahhhh it's finally live! This has been by far one of the most exciting projects I have ever worked on. I seriously almost peed my pants of all the excitement. Everyone at StyleHaul and Maybelline are absolutely wonderful to work with and made this project even more fun. Here is the big reveal of the new The Nudes Palette. No other drugstore has anything like it. Stick around till the end of this post to see behind the scenes.

I never imagined my life and my dreams to take me this far. For some bloggers this may seem like the "norm" and may see this as just another opportunity, but for me this was the experience of a lifetime. I love sharing my love for fashion and beauty with you loves. A big bear computer hug to all of you. I always read all of your comments and you even make me cry from joy. Don't know what I did to deserve so much love but I cherish it all. 

Muchos muchos muchos besos,

New Wet N Wild Fergie Lip Stains



Though I'm not a  huge fan of lip glosses I still love these new Wet N Wild lippies! The main reason is how ridiculously long they last. The shine and gloss stayed on through drinking and eating even after three hours of wear. I'm all about glam  even in the most subtle ways, like a poppy lip. My favorite shades are Epic, Flawless and Throwing Shade. 





I would love to know what your favorite shade is! Let me know! 
I'm very proud to be Wet N Wild's Beauty Ambassador, you can check out my bio here. 
I went to Target last night after my workout to pick up Seveenteen Magazine's March issue. Look who I found, Heart! She's such a sweet friend of mine and I feel like a proud momma. I remember a few years back when she made her first video! Make sure to support her and subscribe to her channel. Which I'm sure all of you beauties already are. 

Muchos besos,

Glam Vanity and Makeup Collection


I finally went through all of my makeup and gave my vanity a little make over. I love how soft and feminine it looks now. Since I was snowed in for two days, due to a large snow storm and literally negative degree freezing weather, I re-organized everything.  Makeup that I no longer wanted and some new that I wasn't going to use, I put in a bag and let my family and friends go through it. 






 I'm a sucker for cute packaging and keep pretty little things on top. This year I'm making going to invest a little more on YSL lippies. Let me know what your favorite shade is! I would love to get a shade you love. 


This is how I displayed stored and displayed my makeup brushes for a long time, but wanted something different. It sadly cracked in half and had to replace it. Here is a post showing you guys how I glittered these candle holders. Click here! 

BEFORE


AFTER

I made a few changes in my room as well. Can you spot the difference? I will be doing a full Room Tour at the end of this month. A full room tour, in detail explaining where everything is from. In the meantime I am editing a closet tour.





You can watch my full makeup collection here. This is a collaboration with my love Kathleen aka KathleenLights on YouTube. She is just so gorgeous. Be looking out on a lot of collaborations with her. I'll let you in on a little secret...we are doing a swap! I haven't done one of those in about a year and a half and it's like Christmas all over again. 




Watch Kathleen's Makeup Collection and Vanity Tour.



I hope you enjoyed these and it gave you ideas on how you can store your makeup. Time to dress up and go to my honey's house. Running errands, wedding planning, and then movies with our good friends.

A Few Of My Favorite Things | Too Faced


Ahhh! I can't describe how excited I am that Revlon came out with new lip stains. The Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Lip Stains are my hands down favorite lips products of all time. I have every shade. They are what started my lip product obsession. There are ten new Lacquer Balms shades and ten new Matte Balm shades and yes… I plan to collect them all. Hee hee. I'm not sure if they are limited edition or part of their permanent line. I picked up three all together. 










On a recent trip to Sephora I also purchased the highly hyped-about Too Faced Holiday palette, A Few Of My Favorite Things. If your thinking of getting it, you should! It is worth every penny and it comes with an amazing mascara. I couldn't wait to play with it and used it as soon as I got home that same day. 

I also used it on my latest Fashion/Beauty video. Watch me get ready from start to finish and pick up a couple of tips as I use some of my favorite products.

L'OREAL - La Laque


I have found my new everyday go-to lip color! Thank you L'OREAL for making this product! I love how I can rock this lippie early in the morning having brunch with my girlfriends, to work, and even to run errands. I just can't go without some kind of tint on my lips. I'm a lippie product junkie. Aside from my favorite lip stains from Tarte this is my new favorite shade of rose. The best part is that it's affordable! Love me some drugstore goodies!  It doesn't budge. It's very low maintenance. 

Earlier I was drinking hot chocolate and through all of my sipping it still stayed on my lips. You don't have to worry about re-applying it, because it leaves a gorgeous stain on your lips. 








I usually prefer matte lip products since they tend to last longer, but I love low this has a glossy consistency which allows it to be moisturizing on your delicate lips. I didn't feel the need to add a lip balm throughout the day to keep my lips from chapping. This lip stick/stain rates at five stars for me! I will probably make my way to Target soon to pick up more shades of these! Do you lovelies own any? What are your thoughts? 


Much love,
Belinda Selene

Fall Beauty Staples



Fall is slowly creeping up on us and since it's my second favorite season I want to be prepared. It means apple cider lit candles under a warm blanket with a Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks in your hand.  When the leaves are turning those beautiful hues of red it inspires me to update not only my wardrobe but my beauty products as well. It's time for shadowed eyes and vampy lips. Though I am of a darker olive skin tone, I still turn pale with cooler climates. Nothing looks more gorgeous than the look of burgundy lips.




I was in the city this morning and after a meeting, I went on a little shopping trip for what will become my Fall Staples. I made a little investment on some luxurious lippies as well as nail polishes. 





For nail polishes I choose these three. I can picture this Marc Jacobs nail polish with a gold accent nail for a classic look. After watching That's Heart video I have been on a hunt for this beautiful green shade from Topshop. It will be that pop of color I need when I pair darker outfits. 


Marc Jacobs cosmetics recently launched early August 2013. I want to go back and try out more of this new line at Sephora. 











The most luxurious lipstick added to my collection. The packaging itself makes you feel glamorous. It is made out of the same genuine leather that their hand bags are made out of. I needed a lip color I could wear on a daily basis. 





This is the perfect shade of burgundy I was originally on a hunt for. YSL makes some of the most long lasting lipsticks. Not only are they  soft on your skin, they are never sticky, and you forget your wearing lipstick. 

I put it on while I was testing it at Sephora, and even after having lunch and hydrating though out the day, with my bottled water, five  hours later it was still on my lips. A little faded but I like how it stained my lips. Don't mind how tiered I look hee hee.








New by Benefit - Bathina "Soft To Touch...Hard To Get"



I recently received a nice little package from Benefit with this baby inside. They always have the cutest designs and packaging, their product development team know what they are doing. I find myself gravitate towards their counter at Sephora every visit.

New to the Benefit beauty line is this new body oil which has a flirtatious scent to it. I took a nice hot shower then shaved my legs. I usually like to put on a very thick cream to my legs afterwards, but this time I reached for this body oil. The almond oil and vitamin e not only helped moisturize my skin but also gave them a glowing radiant shine. My legs looked flawless. I like the convenience of being able to spray it on and gently rub it in. The scent is very feminine and sophisticated. It can also be substituted  as a massage oil. 




It's a very nice little luxury to have, not to mention how glamorous it looks on your vanity/counter, but I wouldn't substitute it for my daily body cream. It's a bit pricey and doesn't last as long as a thick cream would. With sitting and just walking about it wears off and you might have to moisturize after a couple of hours. 




I love the scent and the result of it gives my skin. It does not make you feel greasy like most body oils do. This makes a really nice gift for any Benebabe, a birthday girl, and especially for a bachelorette. You can find it at you nearest benefit counter this November. 


I can't wait to see the rest of their body products line. Benefit never disappoints. Ricardo and I just ordered a pizza. I guess I don't count calories on weekends. Oops. Yum! Can't wait to eat. Talk to you lovelies soon!

Much Love, 
Belinda 



Are You A BeneBabe? Benefit Beauty Cosmetics Makeup Tutorial and Giveaway!





Enter my giveaway! Ends July 2nd!


After a sweet surprise from Benefit Cosmetics in the mail, I received many requests asking to do a haul or an unboxing video. I think it would be a lot more fun to see a makeup tutorial using most of the goodies I got. This was kindly sent to me with no intensions of sponsorship or review for them. I did this video simply because it is one of my absolute favorite makeup brands and totally freaked out when I got this in the mail.

Some of the products I already own, love, and use daily. Since I received doubles I wanted to do a giveaway for you guys. I couldn't have come this far with my channel without your constant support and friendships. Here are the rules!

1. You have to be my subbie of course :D (Through my channel.)

2. Like this video. (Through my channel.)

3. Comment whatever you'd like! For example what's your favorite product from them and why, or why do you want to win this giveaway. It could be about the video, maybe it helped you. Any feedback would be great! I ALWAYS read every single comment, Tweet, ect. on all of my social media sources. Your feedback means a lot to me! (Through my channel.)

4. At the end of your comment, finish it by saying "enter me" (Through my channel.)

That's all! I will pick a random winner in two weeks. This is open internationally, I understand how hard it can be to get your hands on this brand in other countries. Don't want to leave anyone out. Muah!!! Love you guys!

Thank You Benefit Cosmetics!!!



I had the honor of meeting Carla from Benefit Cosmetics who very kindly sent me a sweet surprise in the mail. This is one of my top favorite makeup brands! They have an eminent reputation in the beauty world. When I feel like splurging at Sephora, I always make sure to stop by the Benefit counter. I literally screamed when I saw the cute box. Inside are some of the best sellers and new products as well.







The Hoola Bronzer and the Porefessional Face Primer have been on my wishlist for months now. I don't usually buy makeup unless I run out and need to replace it. I have been using them for the past two days and I can say I'm not disappointing through all of the hype. I can see why everyone loves them.

With the wet weather here in Chicago, I was also excited to see adorable branded umbrella.



 I was also delighted to see the eyeshadows. Which by the way have adorable packaging and will not be disposing yet. I heard that the cream colors are very similar to the Color Tattos by Maybelline but don't tend to crease. I don't own any eyeshadows from Benefit, but I will make sure to tell you guys how I like them.



I have also been using these two foundations and have to say I am beyond impressed! The consistency of the liquid foundation is a bit watery but that just made it easier to blend. They give medium coverage.

Just came back from a long day at the vet and from grocery shopping. Ginger and my sister's new puppy Lola had a check up. I love my Sisi she is so much fun to hang out with. We also eat our addiction, frozen yogurt. My Fiance is going to love me, I stocked up on his favorites drinks in the fridge for whenever he comes over. 

Much love,
Belinda Selene
