August Obsessions

Its that time of the month again! This month has been a crazy busy one! But don't fret I've still been eyeing up a ton of goodies! <3 Lets get to it!

LUUUX

Thanks to Makeupbymel I discovered this site <3

Now this is kind of out of the ordinary but one of the sites that I've been eyeing up especially this last week of August is LUUUX! Now this site is the most unique social networking, blogging, beauty site out there! And you know me I'm always on the look out for fun new sites and contests! This site is nothing like you have ever seen. Trust me!

Basically you earn Luuux points for blogging! Now I know your like ok say what? lol But all you do is blog, comment, and socialize on the site and you collect points. Points can be later redeemed for prizes! Now the prizes are unreal! I was shocked! I'm currently eyeing up the MAC Book Pro, Sigma Brush set and Christian Louboutin shoes, and that's just to name a few! Don't fret my lovelies, earning points is easy and doesn't take much! I just started using Luuux this week and earned 300+ points! 

I would highly recommend joining. Not going to lie there are a few downsides however this site is so bran spanking new they are still weeding things out and weren't expecting the amount of traffic so be prepared for a little bit of lagging and down time. But I swear its worth it! 

If you do join the site feel free to follow, friend and referral me! Just for doing so gets you points! <3

Simple Series-Subtle Greys

As you all know I've been doing a series of simple looks, and this right here might be the second last or last of the series, I'm not a 100% as of yet, but I miss doing darker looks! I think my next series might be a clubbing series or something fun. Whooo knows!

I had a lovely YouTuber (Policosmetics82) ask me what should could combine MAC's Vex eyeshadow with and it got my mind thinking and of course I experimented, and this is what I came up with. However I use Vex as a neutral shade and pair it with alot of shades, it also can make a nice highlight color for the inner tear duct area. Or even on its own it is stunning. 

Let me know what you like to pair MAC's VEX E/S with! 

What I used:

EYES

 MAC VEX e/s

MAC Scene e/s 

MAC All That Glitters e/s

MAC Mylar e/s
