There’s been a lot of excitement about the new Milani Bella Eyes Gel Powder Shadows Collection. And I intend to add to the buzz! Last week, I received all 30 new Milani Bella Eyes Gel Powder Shadows to try out and review. I have never had 30 eye shadows at one time. I must say …
My nails are usually at their best in the summer, but this year, like the summer weather they were a little late. The fact that I was gardening like mad probably didn’t help. But all of a sudden, I noticed my nails were longer and they looked better. Time for nail polish! Earlier this week, …
Last fall, I reviewed and swatched several shades from Milani’s new Amore Matte Lip Creme line here. The matte liquid lipstick trend is still going strong so Milani has added 10 more limited edition colors to their lineup this fall. I received 4 new shades: 28 Darling: pink-beige, almost the color of my lips 31 …
New Year’s Eve is tomorrow night, yikes! Though the holidays are almost over for this year, I want to show you a gorgeous nail polish that you could certainly wear tomorrow night or for Valentine’s Day or anytime, if you’re a glitter girl like me. Milani Ruby Jewels. Ruby Jewels is a true red with …
For months, I was literally on the hunt for Milani Limited Edition Coming Up Roses Blush. I saw it in the late spring or early summer, I believe, on a West Coast blogger’s blog, and I had to have it. She had purchased it at Walgreen’s, so all summer I went to every Walgreen’s I encountered, …
The holidays are here, and what better time for a makeup giveaway from Milani! I am so excited about this giveaway because I love, love, love these lip-shaped makeup cases filled with gorgeous …
My friend Miriam told me I should review Dior’s universal lipliner. I loved the idea of not having to have a million matching lipliner pencils like I have now. So I went to Sephora to check it out, and I discovered that the Dior lipliner costs $30. At that price, I passed. I was thrilled …
In February, Milani is coming out with new lip shades for Spring 2014, and the Power Lip line is one of my favorites. In fact, I saw 5 of the new Power Lip shades in a special display at CVS today! So far, I’ve had the opportunity to try 4 of the 7 new colors …
On Wednesday, we’re expecting from 5-12 inches of snow…to go on top of the 2 inches we got today. I think that groundhog needs to go back and look again for his shadow. I’m so sick of grey skies and dirty snow. I’ve been dreaming about summer or the Caribbean. Since neither seems to be in …
Today is Valentine’s Day! What better day to talk about red lipsticks? And OMG, these reds are gorgeous! Although I already reviewed the new Milani Power Lip and Lip Intense lines, I just received two reds, one from each line, that I had to share with you. So if you haven’t read the full reviews, …
A couple of months ago, I reviewed Milani Coming Up Roses Blush, a limited edition that seemed to be in very limited supply at CVS during the second half of 2013. I imagine that due to the popularity of that LE, Milani has come back with more new shades of the Coming Up Roses Blush …
One of my favorite blushes is Milani’s Baked Blush in Rose D’Oro, a copper with gold flecks. It’s like it was made for me! Milani’s website describes the Baked Blushes as “a melange infusion of colors based on Italian terra-cotta tiles”. I can definitely see that in the Rose D’Oro. As much as I love …
I’ve been meaning to tell you about Milani’s new Brilliant Shine Lipgloss for Spring 2014 for some time now, but spring still isn’t here yet! It’s in the 40s today 🙁 I don’t want to wait any longer. So I’m going to tell you about these uplifting lipglosses anyway since it’s spring on the calendar, if …
Milani, one of my favorite makeup brands, has just launched a contest: “What Do Your Lips Say About You?”. The first round of the contest kicked off on May 6, but it goes till May 25 at 11:59PM, so there’s plenty of time to enter. What’s required is a photo of you with a lip …
Even though I almost put the heat back on a couple of days ago, summer is on its way. I love the look of a tan, but I’ve got so much sun damage from years of too much sun exposure, that I pile on the SPF, wear a hat and sit under an umbrella at the beach. …
