Now I've really been wanting to try this foundation because the lovely FleurDeForce mentioned it in one of her videos and I love it!!
It's got SPF 42 PA+++ which is perfect for my upcoming Kauai vacation. It doesn't go on thick or cakey in the slightest. I definitely wouldn't say it's full coverage more so along the lines of medium and build able. It has a really lovely natural finish to it so I barely set it with a powder.
It wears all day really well. I don't really need touching up. And on the box it says it's, "Very water-resistant, transfer-resistant, Non-Comedogenic, and Dermatologist-tested."
However the color choices are poor. It has a range of five colors I believe and all are fair to medium. It's priced at $35 in my local Macy's.
I'm a little obsessed with all things beauty related. I'm just starting out on blogspot, twitter and youtube. Any advice is much appreciated. :}

MAC Hey Sailor!
Hello everyone! I did a quick video review on MAC Hey Sailor! collection products that I picked up.
Now since I did the video quick and nervously, I'm going to also do a blog post of the products.
I picked up these four products; eye shadow in the color Jaunty, blush powder in the color Fleet Fast, satin lipstick in the color Red Racer, and bronzing powder in the color Soft Sand.
I love, love, love the eye shadow. It's the most beautiful, light shimmery, neutral, gold color. I'm already obsessed with it! Eye Shadow: Jaunty
The blush is also extremely lovely. Similar to Orgasm by Nars I think but I do quite like it as well. It's satiny and looks like a beautiful "natural" flush. Powder Blush: Fleet Fast
Now the bronzer. Bronzers and I don't normally like each other since I am quite fair but I do quite like this one. It's light enough that I can pull it off on my skin but I know it would look absolutely beautiful on my medium olive-toned sister and my tanned Mother. Bronzing Powder: Soft Sand
The lipstick is another product I love! It's so beautifully packaged and so silky on the lips. Plus the color..oh my. It's so va va voom red! I feel quite sassy and sexy with this color on. Though I am already a huge red lipstick fan, this is my new favorite. It's almost an orangey red. Similar to Russian Red by MAC in it's vibrancy. Satin Lipstick: Red Racer
I really am enjoying all the products I picked up from the Hey Sailor! collection. The packaging is lovely and the products are all beautiful and classic MAC quality. Definitely worth checking out in my opinion. :}

Easy Nail Art
This is the first time I have ever actually really attempted to do nail art. Needless to say I was excited and nervous!
All I basically did was apply three coats of Essie nail polish in "Cute as a Button" and let it dry thoroughly.
Next I whipped up a little concoction of MAC loose pigment in "Copper Gold" with ORLY clear coat on a ziplock bag(clever right?) and mixed it together with a old nail polish brush that I cleaned off with nail polish remover.
Lastly I attempted to make a cool ombre type design( I tried) with the mixture and then let it dry before applying Essie "Good to go" clear coat.
The pigment/ clear coat mixture actually applied really well. I was surprised by how, well, pigmented it applied. I love the look and it was very easy to do.
