My Favorite Nude Lipsticks! ♥

Currently in love with these nude lipsticks! They are just so gorgeous. To be honest,  I really don't have a large lipstick collection, but these nudes are slowly becoming a must have in my collection. Each tiny tube of vanilla scented deliciousness are creamy and apply smooth. During the winter months I battle with cold, chapped lips and I find that these finishes are a perfect solution. Finally, I have found my perfect nudes!

(L-R) MAC Bare Again, MAC Creme Cup, MAC Modesty, Lancome (no label)

Bare Again (Supreme Sheen) - A pinky neutral. It has a very moisturizing and smooth texture. Not sticky at all and wears well. Does not settle into lines or chapped lips. An absolute favorite!Creme Cup (Cremesheen) - A light blue based, pinky nude. The cremesheens are also a smooth texture and easy to apply. For those days when I want more pink than brown. Modesty (Cremesheen) - A very neutral nude. This is a newly discovered love as I used my 'back to mac' to purchase it. And I was not disappointed! Creamy, smooth, and gives the natural lip look. It is so gorgeous. Looks great with amplified plushglass on top! Lancome (name unknown) - A light brown, creamy lipstick! So moisturizing it melts right into the lips and looks glossy. Non-sticky and wears well. Goes really well with a smokey eye! This unfortunately does not have a label *smh* I'm not sure what I'm going to do when this runs out. Which nude lipsticks do you love? Let me know in the comments. I would love to try them! Hope you are all doing well.. Are you getting excited for the holidays? I sure am!

KATE MOSS FOR RIMMEL LIPSTICK!

I've been loving this Kate Moss for Rimmel lipstick and I thought I would share my thoughts. I first saw the collection a while back and I  didn't really think I needed them. But when I was at the drugstore the other day, they caught my eye. So I started to look at them a bit closer and I must say, I'm impressed! 

Shade 06 (hot pink)

This particular lipstick in the collection is super pigmented, smooth and creamy. The finish almost reminds me of the amplified finishes from MAC.  The color is a beautiful hot pink! The price is right too, under $5! It's not only richly pigmented and affordable, the scent is actually really nice! It's a light almost mint with a hint of something sweet. I was really surprised I like everything about it! I am definitely going back to check out the matte shades as well as shade 02, and maybe a dark red too!

Have you tried any of the Kate Moss lipsticks? If so, which ones?

MAKEUP STORAGE!

It's been a challenge trying to find the right storage containers for my makeup. I finally found a few of these acrylic containers a few months back and I thought I would share them with you. If you're like me and you have makeup you want handy, ready to grab and use, then these might be what you're looking for. 

I found this 3 compartment desk organizer at T.J. Maxx for around $7! What a bargain!

 I have seen these acrylic cases just about everywhere, and I decided I wanted to see for myself, in person how these would work in my daily routine.  This one is the 5 drawer acrylic organizer form muji. So far it really holds everything I need at the moment! It's really nice quality and the shipping was very quick. I believe I received it around 3 days after I ordered. So that was a plus! It's working out really well, and I love it. It's small, easy to clean, and affordable. 

I was really surprised how much I like this bargain from T.J. Maxx! It really holds my lipsticks and glosses nicely! The MAC lipsticks are always hard to organize because of their bullet shape. This is the perfect solution!

I'm slowly on my way to being more organized! :)  What do you use to organize your everyday makeup?

WHAT'S IN MY MAKEUP BAG!

How adorable is this Ted Baker makeup bag? :) I knew from the moment I laid eyes on this bad boy, I had to add it to my growing collection! I love it! I think I will be collecting more Ted Baker in the future as I love the shiny black material with their signature bow! It's surprisingly quite large. There's plenty of room for all your must haves!

My most loved eyeshadows of the moment: (L-R) Sonia Kashuk neutral e/s palette, Urban Decay naked palette (a classic, must have). A few of my favorite MAC e/s: (L-R) Glamour Check, Swiss Chocolate, Woodwinked, & Sketch.

I am absolutely loving the Revlon Lip Butters! They glide on so smooth and are very moisturizing! Lollipop and Berry Smoothie are my current faves!

I have a gazillion eyeliners! lol! But I find myself always grabbing for these on a daily basis. The Stila liquid
 eye liner is AHH-MAZING!

What's in your makeup bag? Are there any products you can not live without? Feel free to leave it in the comments!
