The Black Showdown

Black vs. Black vs. Black.

You've heard amazing things about all three of these contenders, now who's the absolute best of the best?

1.) Revlon Colorstay Eyeliner in Black/Drugstores/$8 This eyeliner is amazing to wear to school, it lasts the whole entire day, but isn't a bold black, so it's not over doing it. It goes on pretty smoothly and the best part is, it's only $8. What a steal. I actually like quite a few items from their Colorstay line, like the foundation and lip glosses. Revlon, you've failed to disappoint me yet again.
2.) Mac Eye Kohl in Smolder/MAC/$14.50 I love this eyeliner. It's easily smudgeable and long wearing. It's a true black and is perfect for all night long. You can create intense, dramatic looks with this. It's one of those eyeliners that will guarantee you perfectly lined eyes till 3am on the dance floor. 
3.) Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner in Zero/Sephora/$18 This eyeliner is amazing for that smokey eye look. It's extremely creamy and smooth. I love wearing it for those times I know I'm only going to be out a couple of hours, because the name sadly, lies. This won't stay on my waterline for more than 3 hours. And we're not talking about in extreme conditions here either. I love the look it gives me, but it's just not cut out for those long days. However, some people swear by this eyeliner and it's staying power so I guess it really just depends.

Although I like them all for different reasons, i have to declare a winner. Which is, REVLON COLORSTAY. It's the most affordable and practical one. I probably use this one at least five times more than the others and it's just plain fabulous :) Plus, it's also retractable! No need for a sharpener here.

Love You Like a Love Song

Girl About Town Lipstick/MAC/$14.50, Nars Amour Blush/Sephora/$27, False Lashes/MAC/$14, Maybelline Line Stiletto Liquid Eyeliner/Drugstores/$6, Chanel Vitalumiere Liquid Foundation/Nordstroms/$55

Selena Gomez is looking gorgeous, as always, in pictures from her newest music video, "Love You Like a Love Song." It's her & the Scenes second official single from their new album "When the Sun Goes Down," out June 28th. To recreate her look, first apply foundation to get a flawless face. She's wearing a bright fuchsia pink lipstick and Mac's Girl About Town looks almost dead on to hers. For the blush, she used a warm peachy pink, like Nar's Amour. To create her dramatic winged liner look, any liquid liner would work. She's also wearing some dramatic falsies, but if you're going for a more subtle look, then just using mascara is a great alternative.

Love you like a long song ;)

You Make Me Blush ;)

Looking for the perfect summer blush? Look no further. . . 
1.) Mac Cremeblend Blush in Something Special/MAC/$19.50. This pretty coral is the perfect color for that flushed look. 
2.) Mac Mineralize Blush in Love Thing/MAC/$22. I love this thing for those hot late nights.
3.) Physician's Formula Happy Booster Blush in Natural/Drugstores/$12. For a natural, you're making me blush, kind of look. 
4.) Urban Decay Powder Blush in Score/Hautelook/$5. You might just score wearing this pretty blush ;) 
5.) Hard Candy's Boxed Blush in Hot Flash/Walmart/$6. You'll look like you just had a hot flash with these gorgeous colors combined. (Beware of the red, it's crazy pigmented!) 

T.G.I.S. (Thank God, it's Summer)

My everything fabulous it list for summer :) 
1.) (Steve Madden $90) Gladiator Sandals/  So two summers ago? Not for me. I'm still loving this trend. No matter what anybody says, I'm never gonna give you up gladiators.
2.) (Dior $45) Self Tanner/ I want that sun kissed look, without getting skin cancer. That's why self-tanners become my new BFF every single summer.
3.) (Hawaiian Tropic $8) Sunscreen/ I used to be crazy. . . and would buy 100 SPF sunscreen. Until I realized anything above SPF 35 will do just as good.
4.) (Ray-Bans $179) Sunglasses/ Doing two things at once, protecting my eyes & looking stylish. Win-win for me!
5.) (Juicy Couture, Viva La Juicy, 1.7 oz $67) Signature Summer Scent/ This perfume brings back great summer memories. Probably because I used to wear it all the time every single summer. But hey, the beach can only make you smell so good.
6.) (Hurley $31) Bikini/ Beach, Bikinis, and Boys, the definition of summer. And how could that be complete without the bikini part?
7.) (Juicy Couture BFF Watch $195) White Watches/ With white watches being totally in this summer, having one is a must. So fabulous, yet classy at the same time.
8.) (Lilly Pulitzer $138) Bright Bags/ It's summer, save those boring neutral colors for fall & winter. It's time to have some fun ;)
9.) (Gargantuan Green Grape by OPI $8.50) Bright Nail Polish/ Time to bring out your brights and neons again, it's that season!
10.) (Mac $14.50) Bright Lipstick/ Make your lips the center of attention with a bright lipstick! Adding a pop of color will amp up your look. Just stick with a natural or neutral eye & face makeup and you'll be looking amazing.
11.) (Benefit Waterproof Badgal $19) Waterproof Mascara/ Let's keep our mascara where it's supposed to be :) Waterproof formulas are a must if you don't plan on rocking that raccoon look this summer!
