[Beau-Tea]NYC Cosmetics

Lipstick Review

If you follow my blog you already know that I'm not big on spending a ton of money on makeup and Im always looking for a bargain. Well I found one recently at Target, and picked up 3 NYC lipsticks for $1.99 each. Since I've been on my "makeup-comback" journey I've found a new love for NYC cosmetics especially there lipsticks. They apply smooth and are pretty long lasting only requiring minor retouch throughout the day. I've even been asked if I was wearing Mac lipsticks a few times.;-) Impressive right?! Take a look at my new lipsticks below !

"The Butterfly Effect"

I was going through my closet and came across this really awesome high waist/high split maxi skirt I bought earlier this year on Ebay. As I was holding the hanger, I thought to myself "how could I forget to wear this bad boy this summer?!" Then suddenly my fashion light bulb switched on in my head and I came  up with an awesome stylish summer to fall concept for this skirt,"ADD LEGGINGS!" And that's exactly what I did! Check out the pictures below for full outfit details!

[Beau-Tea] Two Toned Lips

Two Toned Lips

" Make a statement with your lips"

Recently I worked backstage for Honey's Child Boutique at the Saint Louis Pink Carpet Fashion Show a Charity fashion show for Breast Cancer awareness . As you may or may not know it is traditional to wear all black when helping out back stage at a fashion show so that you are identified as staff.Wearing black posed as a dilemma for me because I still wanted to be able to showcase my support for Breast Cancer Awarness but it's almost impossible to do in all black apparel. So after throwing my thinking cap on I choose to rock a two tone pink lip.My "lip-spiration"comes from my curvy-licious cousin Chrissy who is always dressed to impress with flawless makeup to match.The key to achieving the perfect two tone lip is by choosing two colors in the same color family but different shades or two different colors that complement each other.For example if you have a bright red lipstick choose a darker second lipstick.Check out the close up of my two tone lips below!

[Beau-Tea]3 Fab Lipsticks under $5

As I re-embark on my "Makeup Comeback" journey I decided I wanted to step way outside my comfort zone, which usually consists of warm neutrals and earth tones and open myself up to a world of color.With that being said I found 3 fabulous lipsticks that ooze boldness and scream fabulously from 3 different brands each under 5 bucks. So beauties I hope you enjoy my review and grab these "bomb-beauty-bargains"!

#1 NYX Matte Lipstick "Perfect Red Rouge Parfait" $4.99 (Purchased from Target)
My Review: This is seriously the perfect red lipstick! It applies on smooth and easy much like a high quality lipstick but for a great price! I definitely be adding more NYX to my makeup stock!

#2 NYC "Blue Rose $2.99 (Purchased from Taget)
My Review: I absolutely love this color lipstick.As far as application it was above average which should be expected for its price point.I have to say that I was highly surprised at its quality and not at disapointed.This lipstick is a def must have!

#3 Wet n Wild $1.99 "Its a Girl" (Purchased from Walgreens)
My Review: This lipstick required a little more work when applying.If you're a makeup rookie you may want to steer away from this brand because if not applied right you can give off the circus appeal.This lipstick comes off real loose and heavy when applied.On the bright side of things if applied properly you'll end up with amazing pink lips.Overall it was an ok lipstick but I won't be running back for more of this brand anytime soon.
