Not much to say today guys and girls. It's been a real long, rough, emotional week for my family and I. I'm just going to keep this short, sweet and to the point today. Thanks for understanding!
Todays look is inspired by ShadesofKassie on YouTube. She is one of my favorite people to watch, and she did this look for a Valentines Day idea. I just loved how it turned out, so I tried it out myself. I love it still! I did record a get Ready With Me video on this look, and that will be up in the next day or so, so be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel so you don't miss it (link!)

Look what I got for Valentine's Day..... Naked!! :-)
I have been going back and forth on wether or not I wanted this palette, and now that's it's mine I know I love it! The texture and pigmentation of these shadows are far superior to any other Urban Decay shadows I have. I know they reformulated, but these are even more buttery than the Vice Palette.
This palette comes with 6 shades that are just perfect for pairing with any of the Naked palettes, or using it on it's own. 1 shade is a satin finish, and the other 5 are matte. None of the matte shades are powdery or chalky, they are all super smooth.
This is a shade from the Kardashian Kollection from Nicole by OPI. If you are unaware of that whole line, a lot of the polishes are amazing (no matter your feelings on things Kardashian haha). I have 3 other shades from this line, but this particular polish was a CVS exclusive that came out last spring.
I picked this little gem up on clearance at CVS for $3.99, and I have to say I quite like it. I like the brushes on these polishes, and I love the formula. This is a good nude shade for me, as I prefer peachy nudes to brown nudes.
I used 2 coats to reach opacity, and topped with Sally Hansen Quik-Dry top coat.
First things first.... I forgot to save unedited pictures. My bad!
This is my go-to, everyday, quick and easy makeup look. I have been sporting this for the past 5 or 6 straight days, and I must say I really like it. Hubby doesn't much comment on how my makeup looks all on his own, but he told me he really liked this. So there you have it! I actually don't usually put anything on the lower lash line, but I was feeling it today.
