April 2013 Makeup Madness Giveaway

Whoops! It’s been really crazy here at myCosmeticBag – we’re busy-busy-busy working on the new website, and on top of that we started a new business – a full service web design and development agency called Alchemy Innovations. With all our time tied up in our multiple business ventures, we haven’t had a ton of time to post lately. Not to fear though – since …

Valentine’s Day FOTD

I meant to post this earlier in the day, but it’s been a little hectic over here. This year, sadly, I didn’t have a date for Valentine’s Day – unless you count my sister and nephew. But, that didn’t stop me from creating this Vday FOTD! I mostly used my new L’Oreal Infallible Eyeshadows, which I’ll review this weekend.

Emerald FOTD

Happy Lunar New Year, everyone! I finally replaced my lost memory card for my camera, so I’m able to do FOTD’s again! I thought it would be appropriate to do an Emerald FOTD since it’s the Pantone color of the year.

2013 Pantone Color of The Year: Emerald

Last month, Pantone announced that the 2013 color of the year would be Emerald, and I couldn’t have been more excited because it’s one of my favorite colors to wear. I’ve been meaning to write this post for a few weeks now, but just haven’t had a lot of time lately between work and Theme Alchemy, a new site I’m starting to sell premium WordPress …

FOTD: Kiss Don’t Tell

This look was inspired by MAC’s Guilty Passions Cremesheen lip glass, Kiss Don’t Tell. Chrissy was nice enough to pass it on to me when she was here visiting and it resulted in love upon first swatch. If ever there were a perfect nude lip gloss for WOC, this is it. It’s amazingly pigmented and the most perfect accompaniment to my favorite nude lipstick of …

FOTD: Christmas Night

With Christmas around the corner, I wanted to do a quick trial run of my Christmas dinner makeup. I knew I wanted something wearable and festive with a pop of red. I ended up keeping the eyes pretty subtle favoring shimmery, neutral shades and went all out on the lips. I ditched the traditional lip liner and carefully filled in my lips using a lip …

Quicky Vampire Look

I was originally supposed to be a sexy sailor this halloween, but I spilled some food on my costume. So, I threw together a vampire look in about 20 minutes, consisting of my Charles David thigh-high boots, a dark red corset top that I just got from asos.com, and of course, some red and black makeup!

For my eyes, I used my Blingtone in and …

FOTD: Hollywood

Can you believe that it’s literally been 3 months since I posted my last FOTD? I can’t …

I’ve been using make-up sparingly for the past few months since I’ve really been concentrating on perfecting my baby face!

In any case, I decided to have a cheat day today and do something glitzy and glamorous — shimmery eyeshadow, a red lip, and a soft cut …

Urban Decay – Supercurl Curling Mascara

It looks like my hiatus has finally come to end. After feeling totally burnt out with the world of beauty, I finally chanced upon a few products that have me absolutely excited!

The first on the list? Urban Decay’s Supercurl Curling Mascara which retails at $20 at both Sephora and ULTA.

That’s a good $5 less than my HG of the moment, Dior Diorshow BLACKOUT …
