I think out of all the primiers i've tried I really love Too Faced Shadow Insurance!! So that's my favorite for today!

Please send any questions, comments, and/or responses to my email at or post it under the comments section.

Daily Favorite 3/23

I think today's daily favorite should be Bare Escentuals A Little Sun. For me it's a great bronzer that does just as it says, a little sun. It's got mica in it so it's not flat. It may look scarry if you swatched it too, but it gives you that glow.

Daily Favorite 3/22

Today I'd have to say my favorite is C.O. Bigelow's Mentha Lip Shine. I really do love this stuff! It makes my lips extra shiny, and it doesn't feel too sticky or tacky on my lips. The ones I really LOVED were limited from over a year ago. They are Raspberry, and Lime.

More Bare Escentuals Needs . . . :)

I've been wanting their "Nude Beach" collection for a while. I can't seem to bring myself to buy 5 eyeshadows for $52 when it is a $78 value. This collection comes with:


* Nude Beach Eyecolor (a warm sand glimmer), size Small
* Tan Lines Eyecolor (a golden sand glimmer), size Small
* Bare Skin Eyecolor (a blush taupe glimmer), size Small
* Skinny Dip Eyecolor (an iridescent pink glimmer), size Small
* In the Buff Eyecolor (a golden peach glimmer), size Small
* Au Natural Eyecolor (an iridescent violet glimmer), size Small


All of which I really so like. I've had samples of some, and other I've seen, but never purchased.

What do you think if this collection?

Daily Favorite 3/21

So I've totally been loving TheBalm Hot Mama since I saw XSPARKAGE use it on her sister in this look HERE. It's a really great blush. I mean REALLY great. For me I use it everyday almost. It sort of reminds me a MAC's Mineralzed Skin Finish Light Flush, but I like Hot Mama better!!

Favorite Sites

I figured I'd compile a list of my favorite sites, and sites I visit on a regular basis.

* Temptalia

* Makeup Geek

* Etsy

* Stars Makeup Haven

* Coastal Scents

As soon as I receive my samples in the mail I'll put up a list of my favorite mineral eyeshadows, and a list of ones I'd like to try!!

Please send any questions, comments, and/or responses to my email at molly.memorymakers@yahoo.com or post it under the comments section.

Daily Favorite 3/18

So today I choose my moisturizer, Skin Nanny by Lush. I never feel dry or itchy anymore. It's wonderful for my sensitive skin. Skin Nanny also makes a fantastic primer! Since it is a thicker moisturizer they suggested using a toner to dampen the face before applying the moisturizer. I use Eau Roma which I like a lot more than the Tea Tree one I was using before.

i think my favorite item today has to be Bare Escentuals matte foundation. The color I use is light. Their matte foundation is really great. I'm not too fond of the ''dewy'' look so this was right up my alley. I'll have a review up sometime this week.

Daily Favorite 03/15

So I figured I would just do a daily favorite. This could be any number of items. I skin care product, fragrance, eyeshadow, eye liner, . .ETC . .

Today I chose Revlon's PhotoReady foundation. I've reallY fallen in love with this product. It gives me great coverage, and since I have been putting it on with my Bare Escentuals Feather Light Brush, I love it even more. I put their PhotoReady Poweder over it to set it. I think it compliments it well. You can read my full review here

Everyday blogs . What are good ones?

I'll be wrapping up my EOTD fairly soon I think. It's been just over a month so that means I have a lot of pictures to take care of. They should be up by Wednesday the latest. I'd like to start a bew series of daily blogs, but I can't figure out a good one. Do you guys have any ideas? I don't paint my nails often enough to for a NOTD. I was think of a daily favorite beauty product. It could be a moisterizer, cleanser, liner, mascara, eyeshadow, blush . .etc . . You get the picture :0) So far this is really the only idea I have come up with. If you guys have anything feel free to post as a comment on this entry!!

Revlon PhotoReady Foundation

Since I've been hearing a lot about Revlon's new PhotoReady foundation I figured I'd give it a try. I normally use MAC Studio Sculpt, Tinted Moisterizer, Face & Body or Make Up For Ever HD Foundation.

I picked up the PhotoReady Foundation in 001 (Ivory) since the next shade seemed a little too warm for me (I think it's shell), and their PhotoReady Powder in 010 (Fair/Light). My one problem with drug store foundation is finding the perfect match. It's always been too light or a little too warm for me. PhotoReady's 001 is a tad too light for me (as is the powder), but with a little bit of blush I don't look too bad.

If applied the right way this foundation will probably set better with the powder. I've only used my fingers/hands. yes I know bad bad bad... I was waiting for my feather light Bare Escentuals brushes to come in (since one of mine had to be tossed). So, I'll let you know how that application goes.

Revlon's foundation stayed on me through out my entire eight hour shift at work (YAY!), but I don't have a very intense job. I normally just sit for eight hours . . yes I know so exciting . . ugh . .

I really have to agree with what Marlena (MakeUp Geek) has said about this product. It feels great on like I'm not wearing any foundation, but it does give a bit of shine. I took a picture with it, and on the side of my nose the flash made it look like i was OILY!! (ICK!) It gives great coverage, and sets really well with the powder. it does transfer so be careful if you or your special someone is wearing white! It gets on my work shirt which is white (which is a pain). The consistency feels a little different than most foundations. It's on the creamy side, which I like. I also found I don't really have to do touch ups. That's not to say if I were to sweat, or do more labor intensive work it would stay on as long, or look as good.

Overall I would by it again. I give it a 4 out of 5 just because the shade range isn't too large, (I think they only have 8 colors right now), it does make me look oily in pictures, it transfers onto clothes easily, and for $13.99 I expect a little higher quality in the product.

Have you tried this foundation? What do you think of it?


EOTD 3/11

Today I used MUFE's #91 over my entire lid with Bare Escentuals Spring placed on top of that, and Bare Escentuals OZ in my crease (and slightly on the outer "V"). MAC's Brule was used as a highlight. Urban Decay's 24/7 liner in Graffiti was used on my lower water/lash line with Covergirl's Lash Blast on my upper lashes.

Mixing Mediums... Which Ones Have You Tried??

I'm trying to find a good medium to use with my loose shadows. I already use fix +, but I've heard MAC's mixing medium is WAY better... I just don't live too terribly close to a PRO store. So which ones have you all tried and liked? Which ones should I stay away from?
