EYES | Rock-Inspired Makeup Tutorial [Black and Purple Liner with Nude Lips]

Rimmel recently launched a brand new mascara called ScandalEyes Rockin' Curves, so I created a rock-inspired tutorial to celebrate its release! I love old rock songs, especially those by Tom Petty, so I used the music video from "Free Fallin'" to inspire my look. The heavily rimmed, bold eyeliner look has always been near and dear to my heart, so I chose raw, sharp lines with a hint of color to achieve that quintessentially effortless, rock-chic look.  Instead of mirroring the mauve nude lip trend right out of 1989, however, I went with a more modern route and chose a creamy, peach-beige nude to balance out the purple lower lash line. Please enjoy the video, and have fun tweaking the look to suit your own features! xo

UPDATE: Top 5 Foundations Review + More Recommendations by Skin Type

It has been over a year since my last Top 5 Foundations Review, so I figured it was time for an update! I received plenty of requests in the past couple months, but I held off on filming until I had tested as many Fall 2014 foundations releases as possible. The five foundations featured in this episode are all ideal options for normal to dry skin, as that is my current skin situation, but combination skin types that enjoy a luminous complexion should try them as well. Please refer to the individual reviews and additional recommendations by each skin type after the jump!

Kat Von D Studded Kiss Lipsticks in Coven and Hellbent Review, Photos

Kat Von D has released a revamped lineup of pigment-packed lipsticks, so I'll be sharing two of the thirty available colors today! The Studded Kiss packaging is functional yet memorable. The raised edges of the 'studs' prevent the lipsticks from rolling off vanity tables, and they also have a lightweight but distinctly textured feel that makes the bullet easy to recognize when blindly digging through a crammed makeup bag. Check out the review after the jump!

TOP 8 | Best of Urban Decay Cosmetics

Urban Decay has evolved so much as a brand. Their beautiful eyeshadows and 'Naked' theme revolutionized the beauty industry, so to celebrate their re-launch at Nordstrom, I wanted to share my recommendations! I love that Nordstrom is bringing in more and more cutting-edge, modern brands because variety is essential for today's savvy shoppers. Urban Decay offers quality, affordable products that make beauty more fun! Now, I may not reach for these products daily, but this Top 8 edit features what I consider the best of Urban Decay. Hope you find it helpful!
