It's a day early, but Happy Valentine's Day!  Believe it or not, I rarely celebrate Valentine's Day.  My friends called my man lucky because he doesn't need to get me a gift or flowers.  But I'd be lying if I say I don't care for the romantic stuff, roses and chocolates.  At the very least, I would have to put on some Valentine's Day themed makeup.  Here's how I'm gonna get that...

The first red carpet event of the year is happening tonight at 9PM EST.  Hosted by the 2 Broke Girls starlets Beth Behrs and Kat Dennings (I'm a fan of Max lol), the People's Choice Awards has a star studded guest lists, which would mean that there will be some major beauty moment on the red carpet.

Celebrity Makeup Artist Amy Nadine forecasted that will be 3 major makeup trends:

1. The Metallic Sparkle Smudge

As Amy puts it, this is a reverse sparkly smoky eyes, so all the drama happens on the lashline and add the shimmer eyeshadows on top.  This look is simple to do too and she suggested to use the following COVERGIRL products:

T to B: COVERGIRL Clump Crusher Mascara, Flamed Out Shadow Pots in Molton Black (shown here, or try Melted Gold), Ink It! in Black Ink (shown here, or Liquidline Blast Eyeliner in Black Fire or Brown Blaze)

Still trying to figure out what to wear to tonight's countdown?  Well, my go-to last minute festive look is always bold eye liner and lips.  Check out a few of my picks:

Eye Liner

Stila Art of the Fine Line Stay All Day® Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner Set

Want to have some fun with your eyeliner and make sure they stay all night long?  This Stila set comes with 4 of their bestselling felt-tip eye liner along with a look card to help you achieve the party look you're looking for.  You'll have the choice to try out the midnight blue, the dark brown, and the moss green shade out, or all of them together. And Stila knows a black liner is every girl staple, so this set comes with a full size of the black shade.

RiRi Hearts MAC Superslick Eyeliner

Loose glitter might be messy to deal with when time is tight.  A better alternative might be glitter liner.  The RiRi Hearts MAC Superslick Eyeliner in Pisces Persuasion is a option.  Unlike traditional glitter liner, it comes with a felt tip applicator, which offers a greater coverage in this one swipe.  Like its name suggests, the formula is super slick that it glides on smoothly with very fine pearlescent glitter.  It's perfect to make your eyes pop.

L to R: Stila Dark Brown, Moss, Midnight, Intense Black & MAC Pisces Persuasion

To celebrate the release of the second instalment of The Hunger Games, COVERGIRL Partnered with The Hunger Games: Catching Fire to create 12 different exotic and sophisticated looks.  Each represents one of twelve districts in the Capitol.  All the details of each look, including tutorials, before-and-after, and product lists can be found on COVERGIRL's Capitol Beauty Studio.  These can definitely inspired some of us to come up with our own version of lookbook for each district.

Did you know the first day of Summer in 2013 is June 21?  While Summer is still two weeks away from now, Summer launches have already (or very soon-to-be) arrived at drugstores and beauty counters.  Let's look at some of the drugstore new launches coming up in Summer 2013!

Maybelline New York

L to R: Maybelline The Falsies Big Eyes Mascara, Master Smoky Shadow-Pencil,
Master Duo Eyeliner, Color Tattoo Pure Pigments x3
  • Maybelline The Falsies Big Eyes Mascara* (available in June 2013, CA$10.99), which is a total indication of you-should-really-check-it-out
  • ColorTattoo Pure Pigments (available in June 2013, CA$8.99) comes in 9 colours, I, of course went for the neutrals
  • Master Smokey by Eye Studio* (available in June 2013, CA$9.99) comes in 5 different colours, so it'll be easy for you to find one to match the classic smokey eyes that you want to go for.
  • Master Duo by Eye Studio (available now) gives you control in getting a thin or thick glossy line.
What else is there?  Maybelline Color Show Polka Dots and Holographics nail polishes!  Their Color Show line is so affordable (I have seen as low as $2.49) that you can't go wrong with trying out their fun shades.

It's the time of the month again!  May seemed long but flew by so quickly, and very eventful.  This month, the weather here in Canada is kind of weird lately, we had nice day, cold days, hail, rain, thunderstorm... But that didn't stop me from trying different products.
