Michelle’s Minute: Freak Obsessed!
Quite literally I am that; Freak obsessed. For those of my babies that live in the UK you are familiar with this scent, I am sure, if you are not, get familiar. As for my US babies, Illamasqua is not only one of the most amazing cosmetics lines (their pigments are to DIE for and I simply cannot WAIT to get my hands on their skin base foundation and their Hydra Veil) but their signature scent, FREAK, speaks volumes to me. The bottle is adorable and classy with the silver snail (I LIVE), the name is EVERYTHING, but the scent…..ohhhh the scent. It takes me ages to find perfume that I love and would wear every day, all day and now I have found a new one. It has finally come to the US at your local Sephora store. I URGE you to go check out the line and fall in love with it the way I have. Check it out at Sephora here and the site here. LIVE!

Makeup You Could Sleep In, But Would You?
We all hate to frighten the one we love when we wake up bare faced and well, natural. Bare Minerals has come up with a solution; makeup to sleep in. Pure Transformation Night Treatment was formulated especially to sleep in with an “active soil complex” that is literally supposed to help us to wake up looking better than we did going to sleep! I would most definitely pay $60 for something that makes my skin brighter and the best part? Makes pores smaller. Yes, please! On the serious tip, you know the one you love, if they truly love you, doesn’t give two craps how you look in the morning 😉

Michelle’s Minute: Sexy Mother Pucker
I love love love plumping glosses but haaaate when it hurts (i’m side-eyeing you, Lip Venom and Lip Fusion XL). The best one that actually works? Soap & Glory’s Sexy Mother Pucker. They had me at the name. I love when I get a product not knowing anything about it and it blows me away. I have told MANY a queen and lady about this gloss. They used to carry it at Target but now it’s at Sephora for $15. Check it here. GET SOME TODAY, you will looooove!

Michelle’s Minute: My Sacred MAC Lip Liner
I am only sharing this with you because I love you all. This is the ONLY lip liner I will wear….EVER. Okay, when they discontinued it I just about went into panic mode, but Sephora did come through with a color very similar in their own brand for 7 bucks so i bought a few of them, but then MAC wised up and brought Stone lip liner back. You can only find it in stores (rather than counters at say Macy’s or Nordie’s) but I simply liiiive for this greyish neutral tone. With my uber light pink or nude middle, my lips always look like a medium well roast beef. If you can’t find it, NYX has a great dupe also called 1000 years. #Perfection

Who Says I Hate Green?
I used my fabulous Sugarpill palette with a gorgeous green shadow on my lid and under the eye I used MAC swimming. See? It just has to be the right green. PS. it was the end of the night, so ignore the bloodshot eye and bleeding lip liner 😉 (via me)
