Much needed update!

Omg guys!

So yeah, this is a MUCH NEEDED UPDATE!! (hence the title) So I haven't really been able to blog for awhile and I was hoping to do one on my birthday! (september 16th) but I SUPER busy! And yeah, school is crazy PLUS work and so much to juggle because I definitely put education first (and it really does pay off!) So I just want to take some time to tell you guys some upcoming posts coming up, I'm not going to guarantee that I'm going to do ALL the ones I'm naming now but I will be doing a lot more (most likely on fridays and saturdays because I just have that time on the late nights haha). So I will definitely doing a birthday haul in 2 parts, the first part will include presents I got (mostly from intermediate family and my abuela :]) and the second part will consist of birthday shopping items from money I accumulated from work (I saved up for 2 months and didnt spend it any of the money AT ALL) and from money I received from relatives so it's going to be pretty big. Next I'm probably going to do my skincare regimen or routine, whatever you like to call it and just show you the products I use for my face and all that good stuff. Just other ones I'll be thinking about more in the future and look forward to posting some new posts!

Stay beautiful :]

Nic's Sticks by OPI review

Ok, so I know it's a horrible image but yeah, that's the Nic's stick by OPI. So this product is basically an on-the-go nail polish, either to touch up your nail polish or to just paint them. So the color that I have (in the above picture) is called "Run, dont walk," which is basically a shimmery bright pink (something that Barbie would wear). There isn't a HUGE color range, but there is definitely something for everyone. The brush/applicator on this is fairly large (just a like the regular OPI nail polishes) but I have no problem with it. The large applicator does not actually make a lot of mistake, I've actually had a lot more minimal mistakes with the Nic stick than with normal nail polishes (or maybe it's just me :/) But the packaging/product is so compact that its just great for on the go and just throw into your bag, so basically if it gets chipped or you just want to do your nails, well there it is in your purse. 

But anyway, the formula is really nice, the color comes out opaque and I could really get away with one coat of it, it's just that opaque. The nail polish stays on FOREVER, I already wore it for a little bit more than a week and it hasn't chipped at all, which is fantastic.

So now that we know the formula and what it looks like and all, how the heck does it work? Basically the open-ended that you see at the bottom, you "click" it and the polish comes out and then you just paint your nails as usual. Oh, and I forgot to mention that the cap is something like the twist top but a little different, I really don't know how to explain it but you don't have to worry about it spilling everywhere in your purse! So overall, I like this product and will definitely be getting some more colors and I recommend you guys to check it out! 

Thanks for reading!

MAC pictures and swatches!!

MAC haul

Hey guys,

So here's my MAC haul, it's a little late because I bought the stuff about two days ago or something and I LOVE all the stuff I got!! Here's the thing though, I really got nothing from the makeup artist collection like I said I would.... the only thing I really got from there was the Graphblack technokohl and the Push the Edge pigment (it was a sample though). So now I've decided to have a new approach to MAC (DulceCandy87 totally inspired me!) I am now going to get all my "essentials" and basically build my MAC collection with stuff from the permanent line. Then when I feel like I have everything I need then I will do more of collecting from the collections because I realized while going through that I have so much from collections and really nothing from the permanent line. I mean if a collection has some essential stuff I need, then of course I might get it. But anyway, enough about that, lets get to the goodies!

So the stuff I got was: (pictures will be posted later)

• Graphblack Technokohl Liner (this really does work AMAZING in the waterline)
• Push the Edge pigment sample (this is a GORGEOUS color! It's a little more vibrant than it is in the pot but still gorgeous!)
• Viva Glam V lipstick (this is my perfect pinky-nude lipstick! This matches my lips exactly, besides the shimmer. I've had my eye on it for awhile now so I'm glad I picked it up!)
• (Back to MAC) Local Color Dazzleglass (So yes, I Bck to MACed 6 items and got this and it came out with the Euristocrats 2 collection and its gorgeous!! Super pretty! A little darker than Baby Sparks)
• PRO PALETTE!!!!!!!!!!! (OMG!! enough said!)
• Woodwinked and Contrast (I got these in pan form because the MA noticed I wanted the pro palette so she just gave me the pan forms of these which was pretty thoughtful so yeah. But woodwinked is a gorgeous antiqued gold and then contrast is this dark blue with a little bit of violet hidden in therebut still great!)

So swatches and pictures will be posted soon! I'm gonna go depot some shadows into my palette. Maybe I'll put a depotting video up or something..I dont know, but anyway thanks for reading!  

First post..

So first post.
I'm MACbabieex3 and I have a youtube account under this name and a twitter under the same name as well. Hopefully I will post some videos soon on youtube because makeup and fashion are my absolute passions (thus the name fuschia lips.sexy hips). So basically my posts will consist of fashion and makeup and pictures and hauls and maybe some crazy adventures here and there (but everyday seems to be a crazy adventure in life).
So I'm basically looking at the MAC makeup artist collection for the millionth time today and I know exactly what I want. The downer is that it'll take me two weeks to get exactly what I want (now that I finally found a job) but at least I'll be getting the stuff I want. My "wishlist" basically consists of these items:
Quads:
Photo Realism (I have no greens in my collection whatsoever besides Sumptous Olive by MAC)
Private Viewing (I'm a sucker for purples)
Eyeshadows:
Off the Page (Dont own an orange and it seems like a fun color!)
Purple Shower (Another purple.....)
Violet Trance (I'm just repeating myself with these purples....)
I'm a little iffy about Haunting only because it looks gorgeous but I hear the color payoff sucks :/
Technokohls:
All of them (they are all so darn adorable and bright and neon, you just cant pass them up)
So yeah, that's a lot as you can tell. I'm also planning on getting pigment SAMPLES because I dont want to pay $20 just for a big thing of pigment I'll probably never use....I dont know. But I want a sample of Brash&Bold pigment and Push the Edge pigment. I'm probably going to be fdoing more than one post today....I dont know, I just like to blog a lot, or just write a lot....haha. Well I hope you guys like the blog!
ENJOY!
