Nars Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer Review


The first day of spring is only one day away, so I have decided to do a much needed review on one of the hottest beauty items for the spring and summer. Today's product review is on Nars Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer. Nars Tinted Moisturizer retails for $42 with 1.9Oz of product and comes in nine shades. I am in the shade Med/Dark2 Seychelles which is described as medium dark with golden olive. For a reference I am NC50 in MAC.

I really love this product so far. It feels really creamy and blends really well into my skin. Surprisingly, this product lasts most of the day considering I have really oily skin. The finish stays dewy and never gets greasy. I really believe that this product is helping reduce the appearance of dark spots and leaving my skin with a radiant glow even after I have washed my face. I think That the Nars Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer will be one of my go to products this summer.

My Favorite Brown Girl Blush At The Moment


I have been loving a new blush lately and I wanted to come and share, it is Nars blush in Desire. Desire is a bright cotton candy pink. I know this blush looks very bright in the pan but it is so beautiful on brown skin. It took me a couple of months just to build enough courage to purchase this blush but I am so glad I did. (In case you were wondering I am a NC50 and 8.0 in Mac, Earth 1 in Iman, and Macao in Nars.) When applied with a light hand this color can easily be worn everyday. It gives off a pretty bright glow.

Maybelline 24hr Color Tattoo


I wanted to write a short review on the new Mabelline 24hr Color Tattoo eye shadows. They are available at drug stores everywhere. I purchased mines at Target for $5.99 each. So far I love these eye shadows. They remind me of Mac's Paint Pots. They are both cream eye shadows that dries to a powder with strong staying power. You can wear them as a eyeshadow base or alone. Mac's Paint Pots run for $17.50 each and contains 5 grams of product and the Color Tattoo eye shadows contain 4 grams of product for only $5.99. I think that the Maybelline shadow is just as good the Mac Paint Pots. I love these so much I want to go back and purchase all of the colors available. They are awesome.
