MAC lipstick in Chatterbox / NARS lipgloss in Angelika

Very pink lips!

Just wanted to do a pretty pink inspired post on this lovely Friday! I'm not usually a huge pink person, but I was seeing a theme today - flowers, lipstick, cupcakes, etc so I just ran with it =)

The NARS lipgloss is new, and I've been wearing it an awful lot - love it alone or on top of a lipstick as seen above.

You guys like it? =)

Body Art All The Year Bodypaint

Body painting, or sometimes bodypainting, is a form of body art. Unlike tattoo and other forms of body art, body painting is temporary, painted onto the human skin, and lasts for only several hours, or at most (in the case of Mehndi or "henna tattoo") a couple of weeks. Body painting that is limited to the face is known as face painting.

Now personally I don’t have a tattoo although I have been thinking of getting one. My wife has a small heart just above her right breast that you normally can’t see. I like it there and if you are wanting to get a tattoo, there are many things to consider.

First you need to be tattoo smart. By that I mean you need to do a little research on them. There are many resources across the internet that can give you ideas about placement, coloring, style, design, and pro’s and con’s.

Body Painting Art

This is referred to painting, and this soon is the art of painting on the body or commonly called the body painting. body painting is different from the tattoos, because it has the permanence of tattoos. and if this body painting is temporary and not permanent.

Nail Stickers - The Verdict

Chic Prints for Nails - Sephora by OPI in Lace

Love the pattern!

My nails look like little presents haha

Kinda hard to fit to my nails though...

OK so I took the plunge into nail sticker territory and above are the results! A few pros/cons from yours truly:

Pros:

• No drying time
• The pattern is cool and shiny
• You can apply them essentially anywhere and it doesn't make a mess
• No chipping or smudging

Cons:

• Certain stickers didn't cover my nails all the way (as seen in the last photo) and the next largest size was too big.
• Even after filing the nail stickers as the directions stated, the tips are still fraying a bit
• Things get stuck to them (tissues, napkins, etc)
• I found it difficult to get the bubbles out, even after trying to smooth them out.

As you can see, it seems like the cons outweigh the pros in this scenario. Now, this could be that I don't have enough experience in applying them, so perhaps it just takes better practice to get it right. Or maybe it was just the brand that I bought that was sub par - I know many other brands make nail stickers too.

What do you guys think? Any tips on how to apply these better?

Bite Beauty Vitamin Gel in Pine-Apple

That didn't take long, huh? After my post a few days ago about "discovering" Bite Beauty at Sephora, I just had to try something from the brand.

I chose the Vitamin Gel in Pine-Apple, because hey, you can never get enough lip moisturizers right? Sephora describes Vitamin Gel as an all-natural multivitamin lip gel that adds sheer shine to the lips. This moisturizing gel contains mood-enhancing essential oils and a high dose of multivitamins, making this lip treatment a daily must. Hmm mood enhancing oils huh? Not sure if it's the gorgeous weather in New York or the gel but it might be working! =)

It's actually very nice, and perfect for the warm weather! I love the scent - very sweet and citrusy. The texture is nice and slick - NOT sticky or tacky in any way! It goes on clear - sorry for the crappy photos, but I was trying to show how shiny it was up close =)

Overall I really like it! It comes in other flavors as well - Blood Orange, Ginger, Pink Grapefruit and Mint.
