... So one day I was browsing the makeup aisle, once again, and I couldn't help but pick this up. I have a real addiction to trying out lip balms and this one was no different. I especially love tinted lip balms. There's just something so alluring and promising about them that I just have to try it. In this article, I'm reviewing 100% Pure's Fruit Pigmented Lip Butter. I was drawn to it's title "Fruit Pigmented" and thought, surely this has to be a marketing ploy. But then I sifted through the ingredients list and found that there were no artificial colors in this lip balm. And for that, I really just had to try it.

March Wishlist
1.) Matte Red Lipstick. It's something I've been wanting for awhile. A little while back, when I first tried Red lipstick, I was too afraid of it's bold color. Now that I'm a little older, I'd like to pull off the sophistication of a deep matte red lipstick. I'm thinking of Bobbi Brown's Red Carpet Creamy Matte Lipstick. Or maybe Dragon Girl from Nars. Either way, I do believe it's pretty strange to be wishing for red lipstick when the holidays are over. Nevertheless, I still want my hands on something red.

NOTD: The Golden Easter
This Easter I've decided to go for something a little more cutesy but modern and simple. I used Essie's Where's My Chauffer and Zoya's Ziv (a shimmery opaque golden color) to play into Easter's cute theme. Read more to see how I did my nails!

My Skin Care Routine
I have a motto when it comes to facial skin care: Less is More. I take this from my mother, who has gorgeous youthful skin from her age of 53. I tried to follow in my Mama's footsteps and use her routine, but it didn't work out too well. It's all good though because I have found something that works.

Lorac Pro Palette Review
Lorac's PRO Palette $42.00 USD
Last year, Lorac introduced the PRO palette. It contains 8 matte shadows, located on the top row, and 8 sparkle/shimmer shadows. According to Sephora, it is:
A professional palette featuring 16 ultra-pigmented eye shadows infused with soothing botanicals and a mini Behind The Scenes Eye Primer for stay-true color that lasts.
I've had this for about 3 months now and it's definitely one of my favorite palettes. The formula is oh-my-goodness so buttery. I never knew eyeshadow could be so buttery soft and smooth. This makes it so easy to blend. It's also pretty long lasting. I've worn this to dinners, parties, clubs, and this stuff stays through all night. Here's a summary of the pro's and con's.
