Quick Facts about Balmshell:

This was such a fun event. We were able to swatch the products, give suggestions and mingle! Some girls I haven't seen since February, so this was a great opportunity to connect with them again and meet new girls. The Balmshell squad were really friendly, sweet and fabulous!

How do you treat your phone?

My phone goes everywhere with me, so I see no reason for it to not look it's best!

My mom got this plate for me for $20. Which is a pretty good price because it has a graphic on the back. I love Hello kitty so she made a great choice :)

My question for you is how do you treat your phone?

Fab face of the Day- Rihanna

I love all of Rihanna looks! They can range from feminine to rocker chic.

Two things I've noticed about Rihanna is:
- Lashes
- Bronzer

LOVES IT!

Do you like Rihanna looks?

Balmshell Cosmetics Review + Swatches

Here is another fab product I got at TBBM from Balmshell.
Balmshell is a cosmetic line developed by Canadian identical twin sisters and self-professed cosmetic junkies Jennifer and Fiona Lees. They followed their passion and created a fun and flirty cosmetic line. Launched in 2006 with their line of signature float art lip-glosses, BALMSHELL cosmetics are paraben free and made from the finest ingredients.
I got 1 full-sized lipgloss and 3 sample sized glosses.
SHOPAHOLIC: Sheer Classic Soft Baby Pink 
I included flash and no flash pictures for you all to see the amazing colors.

Each gloss comes with signature float art!
Shopoholic's float art story:
This is a story of a woman who is incurably addicted to shopping. She slides into a boutique just to pick up a few small things. When she comes out, the store's doorman struggles to carry all of her parcels, while her limo awaits. Sadly, there is no known medical treatment for this addiction.
LOL! Minus the doorman and limo that me!

I love how the float art can be screwed off and used as a keychain. Now I can find my car keys in my purse :)













YUMMY MOMMY: Light Mocha Brown


 This gloss is my absolute favorite because it's such a great nude. Look how moisturize my lips are :)

WEEKEND IN THE HAMPTONS: Sheer Taupe Sandy Beige


DARLING YOU LOOK FABULOUS: Sheer Hot Cherry Red


These glosses are buildible & pigmented. They also have a pleasant vanilla - mint scent.

Annabelle Glitterama Liquid Eyeliner: Reviews+Swatches

I was sent two Glitterama Liquid Eyeliners to review from Annabelle Cosmetics. Let me start off by saying I've NEVER used glitter near my eyes before! So this was my first time experimenting.

Glitterama Liquid Eyeliners:
Its long wearing formula is loaded with sparkling micro-glitter particles that catch and reflect the light. Its fine, tapered brush applicator picks up the maximum amount of sparkles and distributes the eyeliner smoothly and evenly.
The most important keywords are "micro-glitter". Products with micro sized glitter are safe to use near the eyes.

Close up of the colors: Violet Venus & Solar Flare

These colors are very pigmented. At first I was scared that I wouldn't be able to control the amount of glitter that comes out but these liners are buildable.

Swatches after 1 swipe.

Swatches after 3 swipes.

These liners can be used over nude eyes or over eyeshadow. Overall there perfect for a night out on the town!
