Lip of the Day: Plumful


Hola chicas I got this MAC lipstick since I have quite a few of their must have shades. The shades I have are the standard that most beauty fanatics have from the very dark to the party bright pink and tropical reds.

Sometimes I want a "normal" lip shade with a hint of color not being pink or nude. I chose Plumful as this gives just a slight punch of color and enhance most of our lip colors which can have a hint of red or mauve shade. I was quite impressed at how smooth this lipstick was and it enhanced my lips just the right amount perfect for those days when you don't want to have the full tranny makeup face. Yes! there are days when I want to breathe! Very few days since I love makeup but I would def recommend this shade as it is perfect for the office or for the weekend.

FOTD: Face of the Day using Mac's Faux Lipstick


I recently picked up Faux which is a Satin finish lipstick from MAC. Most of my nude lipsticks are beige, orange hued, or very light to wear on a daily basis. I normally reserve the super nude lip for evening with a simple smokey eye or use it for daytime with a dramatic liner.

This was a very soft consistency lipstick and applied true to its color as I was worried the red of my lips would prevent it from showing so much. I used it after moisturizing my lips and decided to do a flawless makeup look to really showcase the lips. I am surprised that this brown hued lipstick showed up and blended very well for my skin tone. This will now be added to my arsenal of daily lipsticks. Hope you like the swatch I did and showed it on my lips so you can see how it looks on similar skin tone like mine.




Here is how it looked later on in the afternoon without reapplication.

Haul: Bath & Body Works & MAC

Hello Chicas! The hunny and I were supposed to go shopping for HIM...but as always I had to just sneak a little bit in.lol.

First stop was B&Body where we got refills for our wallflowers that we have all over the house. We got Japanese Cherry Blossom and Island Margarita (which he chose).

At MAC I did not want to get very much as I have been trying to use up what I already own and not be wasteful. Well I am actually trying to do this with my clothes as well (just remixing).
Aromatherapy wash, lotions, and mini candles. Also the Mentha body lotion is a great hand lotion the hunny loves it for his dry hands

At MAC I pretty much just restocked on my staples: Matt Powder in Med Dark and Matte Bronzer which I use for contouring.

Left: Russian Red (free since I took the 6 containers) Right: Frosted Heroine which looks alot like Frenzy only darker in my opinion.

The packaging.
