Hey peeps lets chat!
As you all probably already know the lovely and flawless Kim K and Kanye have officially said their I dos. The media seems to be obsessed with wanting to know all the little details of the wedding. I am on the same boat; however, I really cannot wait for the close up pictures of Kim's makeup. She rocks that natural, but not natural look like the diva she is. Her face is always on point. Whoever her makeup artist is needs a round of applause, because they are straight up killing it. Their track record of Kim's makeup looks are just as flawless as the tips of her winged eyeliner.

If that is not a perfectly made up face I don't know what is. Now if you were wondering if this is another post about Kim, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but no. This post is all about makeup. Kim and Iggy were just some notable well beaten faces that I had to mention before I started. So without further ado lets talk MAKEUP!
First on my favorites list this week is the new Playland Collection by MAC.
First on my favorites list this week is the new Playland Collection by MAC.
The other thing I am loving about this collection is that pink lipstick (Sweet Experience). I am in love with pink lipstick especially when it is hot. If you are of an ebony skin tone and believe these lipsticks are too bright for your complexion, but you still love it, there is hope. The best tip I can give you is lip liner. I like to apply my lipstick first when it is a bright color then trim and blend a darker shade with the lip liner. Now, admittedly it will take a few trials and errors to get it right, but trust me once you get it you will never turn your head from another bright shade of lipstick again.
Okay so my second favorite is the collection that is dedicated to the Disney movie that just came out today. That's right I am talking about the one and only Maleficent featuring one of Hollywood's most gorgeous mothers, Angelina Jolie.
When I saw this advertisement for the collection I was more then ready to hand over all of my money to MAC. Angelina's face is flawless honey FLAWLESS and her eyes are piercing. When I first saw the preview for Maleficent I thought two things. One, Angelina is back and she looks so good. Two, I want that red lipstick. And you know what? MAC read my thoughts and gave me more then I wished for.
This collection is truly for the bold and beautiful. So you know I was in love. I am going to jump right in on my favorite piece out of the whole collection, that blood red lipglass (Anthurium). MAC lipglass carries a rich color to it along with the perfect amount of shine that'll make your lips look like glass aka why it's called lipglass. Needless to say this Anthurium is at the very top of my "Buy-As-Soon-As-I-Get-The-Money" list. Now, I'm not done with this collection yet, there are still two things that I want to buy. As much as I love my lipglass, there is nothing like a classic tube of red lipstick (True Love's Kiss).
My second item out of this collection I want is that four piece eyeshadow pallet. MAC knew what they were doing when they included a natural eyeshadow pallet set to counter their red lip overhaul, because any makeup guru will tell you when you have red lips you really do not need anything else that will take away from it. Even though the pallet only has four colors there is a lot you can do with it. Just play around with it a little you will come up with a nice combo that fits.
Why did I just give you two amazing pictures of Katy? Well, nobody does bright makeup looks like Katy, and I love me some bright colors especially in the summer. Urban Decay has released a new pallet just for the summer called Electric.
I'm very excited about this pallet because the colors are so rich. I have the Urban Decay Naked 2 pallet and it did not disappoint. So I have high expectations for this pallet. I even Googled some looks I want to try out with it.
My third favorite makeup trend that has been here for the longest, but I still love is winged eyeliner.
No matter how you wear your winged eyeliner it'll look good on you because nobody know what looks better on you then you. My only wish for you as you explore the various style of wings that fit your current mood is:
My fourth favorite for the day is false eyelashes. My love of false eyelashes came about when I had MAC do my makeup for prom *sigh* memories. False eyelashes are the perfect finishing touches to any makeup look.
The best advice I can give anyone who wants to wear false eyelashes is to get the length and fullness of eyelashes that fit the woman you want to be for the day. When I went to prom I got long thin lashes because I wanted to be elegant and classy. But, for The 1975 concert I wore long and full lashes that fit the woman I wanted to portray myself as for that day bold and beautiful.
Moving on to my fifth favorite thing and that is orange lipstick. At first it was a little hard for me to get on this train because orange is just not a color that really should be worn outside of a prison. However, with that being said I love this orange lipstick that is happening for the summer

See there is a shade of orange for every skin tone out there. So get out there and join the trend honey.
Because I love you all I had to share some of my favorite makeup guru YouTube tutorials that are perfect for the summer. The first is a nice peachy look that would be perfect for a late lunch or summer date night.

The second tutorial is less subtle and more fun. I would recommend it for a night out with the girls.
I hope you all have enjoyed my favorites for the day and hopefully you found some products you want to try. Feel free to share some of your favorite makeup trends in the comment section. Until next time.
