Revlon Colorstay: Pale Cashmere


Yesterday, I celebrated my birthday and as a treat to myself, I decided I could go buy $20 worth of drugstore makeup. I posted my small haul yesterday on the blog. I painted my nails with Revlon Colorstay's Pale Cashmere last night and I'm loving the pinky-creamy color. 

The application itself was a little rough. I'm so used to the drying time of Essie colors that I kept smudging my nails thinking they'd be dry already. It took forever, I swear. Also, the brush itself is a little wide and stubby. It isn't bad, just different than Revlon's regular polish which is thinner and lengthy. 

I'm too much of a polish addict to test Revlon's claim that this polish can stay on up to 11 days continuously. Maybe next time I'm on vacation I'll see if it really does. Which, for my sake, I hope a vacation comes a long real quick! I'm drowning in homework!

A Sultry Valentine's Day

A Sultry Valentine's Day

This "sultry" V-Day make-up look focuses heavily on red lips, inky liquid eyeliner, and pearly understated eye-shadow. As always, remember that when you are doing a red lip with liquid eyeliner keep everything else muted. The Revlon ColorStay (which is my choice for drugstore foundation) will provide a semi-matte base that will keep all the focus on your lips and eyes.

Blush is not recommended for this look, you might start to look like a clown with that much color on your face. If you feel like you need a small swipe of color on your cheeks, limit yourself to a peachy or bronzy tone and lightly brush it right under your cheek bones, NOT the apples of your cheeks. Finish with your choice of black mascara. My lashes love CoverGirl Lash Blast.
