MAC "Candy Yum Yum" Swatches.

Ok, ever since this lipstick first came out I wanted it like crazy. But like a lot of other Dolls I was disappointed to find that the lippie was sold out everywhere when it came out. And we're talking about a freaking year ago (talk about some serious determination) since "Candy Yum Yum" is a Limited Edition shade part of MAC's "Quite Cute" collection.

I was in luck though when fellow blogger Christine and I did a beauty swap and I finally got a hold of this famed lippie. All I can say is I FREAKIN' LOVE IT.

Such a unique color: it's a bit fluorescent, hot pink seriously words don't do it justice so I'll let the photos speak for it. And by the way, it's a matte finish which is a major plus.

Does anyone else have this lipstick?

My MAC Lipstick Collection.

Hello my December Dolls! So as you all know I am a lipstick junkie and pretty damn proud of it. So I thought I'd start sharing my lipstick collections and the best place to start off would be of course MAC. I think I found all of them (I tend to forget lipsticks in bags) but I couldn't find my "Russian Red". It's somewhere (must find).

Let me know what your favorite MAC lipstick is. I'd really like to know what my readers love wearing. Kisses ♥

MAC's 'Petals and Peacocks' Lipstick and Look.

This is such a gorgeous shade and unfortunately it was a LE from the "Give Me Liberty of London" Collection. I hate it when MAC does that, makes all the awesome lipsticks LE. Boo! (Sad face)

Anyway the lippie is has an amplified finish and a lovely creamy texture. It goes on smooth on the lips as it applies. It's loud and bright, and as far as color wise a lot of people call it a hot pink. I wouldn't agree. Calling it simply a hot pink does not do it justice at all. It's a purplely fucshia and that's what makes it so unique as a color. The purple tint to the color.

Since it's a limited edition lipstick it's no longer available in MAC stores but I'm sure anyone can find one on eBay or Amazon. Only thing that should be expected is that every seller thinks that they can sell a $14 lipstick for the price of $40 - $50 which is such a ripoff. I wish there were more fair/logical deals on LE lipsticks. Any thoughts on that?

I always love hearing what you have to say so drop me a comment down below or you can find me on Twitter or Facebook. Kisses!

Celebrating with Lady Danger.

Friday the 13th was my best friend Elina's birthday! The celebration took place at one of our favorite places to go out in Kifissia, Bronco. We all got together and had an amazing time.

I've known Elina for about a decade now and for she is the sister I never had, family more than just a friend!
She's been there for me for all the up's and low's, a true friend. Imagine that we understand each other with just a simple glance, that's how well we know one another. Also we have lived out so many things that always has us wondering if we are living in a movie (lots of crazy stories there!).

I wish my sistah all the best on her 26th birthday and I'm positive all her dreams will come true!

♥♥♥♥♥

I made the cake! Rainbow chocolate cake!

Dreading Time.

As for my make up of the night, I chose one of my all time favorite red lipsticks, MAC's 'Lady Danger'. It's a matte lipstick and the orange hue in it makes it a one of a kind bright red. Never fails to impress! To complete the look, a simple cat eye with black eyeliner and of course false eyelashes.

MAC's 'Shy Girl' Lipstick and Tommy G Blue Eyes.

MAC's 'Shy Girl' is really what the MAC site describes it as, a creamy neutral coral beige. It's an easy-to-wear everyday color that works either for day looks or for a night out. Since it's a cremesheen finish, so to get the full color you definitely have to glide it on a couple of times. Not at all drying for the lips, Shy Girl lasts and also has a pretty glossy effect.

If anyone is looking for a nude lipstick that doesn't give off a "corpse" look, Shy Girl is a great choice with it's peachy hue. 

 Now that Spring is upon us, I have been in the mood for rocking bright eyeshadows. So it was the perfect opportunity to try out my new Tommy G eyeshadow in no.1005 and the result is stunning! I wore the shadow for HOURS and it didn't wear off! For proof the photos below where I'm wearing the Posh hat were taken when I got home after a night out. As you can see, that stuff is still there! Their shadows apply on very smoothly and are very pigmented which is a major plus! I'm a really big fan of all Tommy G products and always have a good word to say about them!

 Overall: ♥♥♥♥♥ 

 I will be definitely be adding more shades to my collection!

This is the Posh hat I won from PoshFashion's giveaway! It's a colorful fedora hand made hat adorned with pictures of the one and only, Maria Callas. Thanks Taso! Also the gorgeous Swarovski blue earrings are a name day present from my very very good friend Elena (love her!). They are from Anna Maria Mazaraki and are gold plated! Very Glam!

Hope you all enjoyed this colorful Spring look, kisses Dolls!

MAC's 'Kinda Sexy' Lipstick & Look.

The name simply says it all...Kinda Sexy! Couldn't be more simply put. 'Kinda Sexy' is a matte finish (again, one of my favorite finishes, awesome effect) and an awesome nude lipstick. It's the kind of nude that works very easy day or night and on all skin tones. It's a neutral-pink shade and the pink in the shade is what makes it work for everyone giving off a more natural-beauty look. Plus shades like these always make your lips look sexier and fuller.

Who wouldn't want to look sexy and pulling it off naturally at the same time?

Overall: ♥♥♥♥♥  

I'm addicted to lipsticks so this is definitely a keeper. I can't wait to try it out with a glam-kicking smokey eyed look, I'm positive it's gonna be glamtastic!

MAC Style Curve Lipstick: Swatches & Look.

Hello my Dolls! Happy Valentine's Day!  ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥



I personally am a fan of Valentine's Day and I seriously cannot get why so many people are anti-V Day and always find a way to spit out miserable remarks on such a cute holiday. Ok so it's a huge commercial thing, but who can resist roses and gifts and romantic dinners? What? Your partner doesn't like all the lovey-dovey sugar coated activities of this special day? Then fuck him. You don't need a Valentine to have fun of V-Day, a night out with the girls is just as fun, so it's a win-win situation. Enough of my V-Day rambling.


I finally received 2 lipsticks I had ordered from MAC and today's post is a look with "Style Curve". It was a part of the Stylishly Yours Collection and it has a cremesheen finish. I was a bit reluctant about such a vivid shade of purple but I thought I'd give it a try (and hey I even wear Lady Gaga lilac lipstick). And I LOVE it! It's such a sexy color and so fun to wear which makes me nervous cause it's an LE lipstick (dammit). I wish MAC could add a lot of their LE to their permanent collection and make all our lives a lot easier. 

Anybody have any plans for Valentine's Day? I'm going out to dinner with my boyfriend and a bunch of our friends and I need to start getting ready actually or I'll be late as usual. Kisses Dolls and have a beautiful day full of L.O.V.E   ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Valentine's Day Look.

Valentine's Day is just around the corner and being the romantic sucker that I am, I was inspired to do a Valentine look using different hues of pink. It was also a good chance to try out a new lipstick I got from Adriana Karembeu's make up line.

I was very pleased with the lipstick, at it's fairly low cost, I got a lipstick that's full of color, lasted the whole night and that has a great texture. I would definitely be willing to try out some more shades!

Enjoy the look!
