now my beauties please go out and enjoy yourselves. have a wonderful week!!

new york color!

most of the time my all time favorite makeup comes from (drumroll please!)

the drugstores!!!

if you've kept up with my lovely blog i'm sure you know this hehe.

well i recently came across the new quads from N.Y.C.

they're supposed to be a customized for your individual eyes, meaning colors that are perfect for your individual eye color.

brown eyes? your match is 938 Union Square

blue eyes? your match is 939 Bryant Park

green eyes? your match is 940 Central Park

i love the colors and they are ssoooo pigmented. and as always, super low price of only $4.99 - gotta love it!!!

the best feature in these palettes is the highlighter and the primer that come on the sides of them. you can't find a more complete palette at such an affordable price. seriously LOVE!

nooooo i don't have green or blue eyes BUT i really don't obey those rules. and doesn't the saying go "rules are meant to be broken"?

uuummm yeah i have that stamped on my forehead lol

REMEMBER every color works with EVERYONE. you just have to find the right shade and tone.

with that said pick up these quads and have some fun!!

side note: they also came out with three more quads-

941 Smokey Brown

942 Smokey Blue

943 smokey Green

unfortunately i haven't found them but trust me, as soon as i see these

bad boys i am snatching them up!

the season's IT color!!

what better way to cheer up such a drag day (at least in nyc)

than to give you some bright lip love?!?!

this season's IT color is CORAL.

we're seeing it aaaaall over the runways, be it on clothing or makeup-

sometimes both!!

i'm loving the bright colored trends this season, especially coral.

get ready to load your makeup bag with tons of coral shadows, blushes and

- MOST IMPORTANTLY -

lippies!!!

here are some of my current favs from the drugstore (of coures!!)

look at those beauties!

both revlon's coral and kiss me coral seem very similar but you can tell the difference more in person. also they're consistencies are different -

coral has a more

creamy sheen to it and

kiss me coral is more matte.

coral crush has more pink undertones- making it puurrfect for a spring day !

which is your favorite??

let me know - i still have room in my bag for more ;)
