Sweet Treats: MAC Baking Beauties Collection


Hey All!
I am pretty mixed regarding the MAC Baking Beauties Collection. There are many things I love and many things that could DEFINITELY improve. MAC is capable of producing some pretty impressive products; at the same time they are guilty of the exact opposite. From the collection I purchased:

Pure Decoration Lipstick


Raspberry Swirl Lipstick


Lavender Whip Lipstick


Devil’s Food Lipstick

Mooncake Pro Longwear Paint Pot


Éclair Pro Longwear Paint Pot


Reflects Transparent Teal Glitter


I am very happy with the paint pots and the teal glitter, not so much with the lipsticks. I’ve reviewed each product individually so if you click the product above, it will take you to the review. If you have full lips and want to remotely even make any of the lipsticks work I advise you to lip line your lips so it’s less likely that the product will settle into lip lines. Did you get a chance to purchase any items from this collection? How are products working for you? How did you feel about this collection?

Smokey Teal Glitter Eye Tutorial


Hey Guise,
I've complete my second tutorial! So excited and it was a total blast to shoot. I decided to do a smoky teal eye because I've always loved the teal color but never knew how exactly to wear it. Like usual I just started grabbing my brushes and tools and figured out this easy beautiful look.


This look is very alluring and very girly. I decided to pair the lip with a pale pinkish brown lip and soft rose coral cheek. Its a fierce eye with surrounding soft features. In this tutorial I decided to try some speed up and slow down effects in certain areas so please let me know what you think worked and what you think didn't. I appreciate your views and your opinons. Listed below are all the products I used to achieve the look.

Spring Time Candy Eyes a.k.a My First Tutorial





Hey Beauty Otakus!
Here in Minnesota spring isn't exactly as it should be (so much snow!). So I decided that if I couldn't indulge in the spring weather I could at least enjoy a spring inspired look. This is the first tutorial that I have ever filmed and it was a blast. I love gradient eye looks that incorporate multiple colors and the pastel eye shadows that arrive with the season; so I combined the two and sprinkled it with sugar (glitter top coat) for a look that stands out in the sun. 


Being that this is my first tutorial I learned a lot of dos and dont's. But instead of reshooting the whole thing I wanted to enjoy having a first tutorial thats "pure", ya know filled with innocent mistakes, that way in the future I could compare this video to my new ones and see how my skill has grown. My favorite mistake from this video is a misspelling of a rather simple word...I'll just let you catch it. So what do you guys think of the look? What's your spring go to look? Do you have any tips for me and my filming style (I'm still trying to figure it out)? Thanks for reading and watching, I will be posting more videos in the very near future.
You can find them on my blog or my YouTube channel:http://www.youtube.com/user/LipstickOtaku

Stay strong, healthy, and beautiful in the meantime.
