DIY Welcome To The Jungle Makeup Storage

All your going to need is a bead organizer
which can be found your local craft store I got mine from michael's on sale for $1.19 a piece
and animal print duct tape which can be found in the same aisle as contact paper.

Snapping off the lid or I just cut the small plastic hinges to remove it. adding tape around the edges for a less boring look. So why spend 30 on a storage from ebay or online when you can spend 5.00 and make a whole bunch!

NARS Wicked Attractions Set

NARS Wicked Attraction Set
Price: $49.00
Where to buy Sephora retail stores, Sephora.com

NARS has been on a great role lately with releasing these sets that are not only a great way to start collecting many of the products for a great affordable price but it also allows you to try out her newer things. Yes the sizes are travel or "mini" as put on the box but really how nice is it to be able to throw some of this quickly into a bag and be able to get out into the road?




Orgasm/Laguna blush bronzer mini duo
Fathom eye shadow mini

The blush/bronzer duo is perfect for anyone who wants a little contouring, try something new or a little bit of both. The blush orgasm is the biggest selling blush and one of their most recognizable items in the entire collection. Its a pretty bright pink but depending on how much you put it on and blend it out you can achieve between a pale and vibrant pink. Making versatile to most situations. Perfect for both beginners and collectors of all types and all skin tones.

The eyeshadow is not really worth buying on its own, its pretty pale against someone who has a
already pale skin, if you pile it on its not so bad its worth keeping since it came with my collection putting it over a white eyes base really does help the cause but like I said you don't have some kind of white base you'll have to pile it on, but definitely keeping it if you do purchase this collection.



Spring Break lip-gloss

I have nothing but good things to say about this lip gloss its that perfect nude shade that your can both dress up or down. Yes it is sticky but its what allows it to last for so long. This honestly one of the longest lasting lip glosses that I own, its also really smooth yes even though its sticky it glides on and stays on I wore it through a full day of work and through dinner and it didn't move. That's always a great value in my book. Probably the one thing I would tell everyone to get in full size its perfect to put into your purse or in your pocket for quick touch ups for a night over out. The ability to look good on both it's own or over you're favorite nude lipstick or a vibrant one to turn down the color and add a little bit of glitter and shine.





This shadow base is nice because its creamy but depending on what kind of skin you have it can feel oily and cause your eyes to crease and really defeat the purpose of wearing it in the first place, this is something that you should really go your local sephora and try out because everyone is different.

Going a little Psycho for some real Hair Candy.

My good friend Erica, has created her own line of hair bows, called Psychohaircandy
you can find her bows at psychohaircandy.etsy.com.

Now these are going to be honest testimonials because this is a review site, it is my honest opinion and I will not being sugar coating anything because she is my friend, so please don't even bother with the "friend" comments.

I recently purchased a few different sized bows

Affordable is one of the biggest loves I have for these bows. Especially with the trend getting larger this season its nice not to pay out the ear for a bow. ranging from $2.50 - $8.00. Possibly more if you're looking into having her make you a custom bow either way you'll have a hard time finding a place that will be lower then her prices for the same thing.

What I love about these bows besides the unique shapes as well as vivid colors. Is really the size as someone with thick coarse hair its not always the easiest time to put into your hair and on top of that they are not always sized so that you're amount of hair isn't overwhelmed by it.

She even makes smaller ones as you can see from my top picture which for people with the thinner hair or who have a more subtle preference it allows them to also join in on the fun of it.
Another really big pro of all of this is the salon prongs. That won't pop, break, or slide out of my hair, when you have hair issues thin or thick you tend to stay towards, what works best for your hair. I have yet to try it out on thinner hair but for someone who has snapped her fair share of clamps. I have to give a shout out to Erica for taking the time to invest in the prongs.

I guess this is the part where I have to find some constructive criticism in the bows but really I like the ones I buy. and I've never had a problem with them all though when they have little things in the middle ( coca cola bottle. skull, bottle cap.etc ) there might be a different angle to glue them in because when I do wear them they tend to tilt and not look completely up right but this might also be the way that I am wearing them.

Also other big and final flaw, she makes two many cute bows so she is leaving me broke. but at least I'll look going being broke

Viva Glam Nicki And Ricki

MAC has recently launched the new line for their Viva Glam AIDS/HIV Awareness Campaign
using Nicki Minaj and Ricki Martin as their current faces.

Nicki Minaj
Price: $14.50
Where To Buy: All mac counters and pro stores, maccosmetics.com


Even though mac already has a variety of pinks from snob to Nicki pink Friday
this pink is unique in its own sense because its a beautiful combination of yellow and pink with a satin finish so it'll be smooth and still longer lasting than a creme sheen or an amplify.
I think that this pink can be flattering on anyone that is willing to give it a shot dressing it up or dressing it down this pink is versatile.

One of the things I really like about this color is that its not sheer and really stays bold without being obnoxious, The best part of all is that all of the proceeds go to AIDS/HIV awareness.
The only thing that stinks about this is that it sells out pretty quickly I was able to get the last one at Macy's when Bloomingdale's was sold out. Even if you are not able to buy one I would suggest asking to try it out.



Ricki Martin Lip Conditioner
Price: 15.00
Where To Buy: All mac counters and pro stores, maccosmetics.com

This product was released for the male side an ricki martin fans a like. This lip conditioner has the same as the regular one that is being sold at the counter but since its part of the campaign all the proceeds go to the awareness and if you need a lip conditioner you might as well pick up the this one for the same price and get to be part of the cause.
