I bought this really pretty eye enhancer palette the other night when I went shopping and I thought it would be cool to do a video showing how it came out instead of just snapping pictures like I did for the other pretty palette that I bought. So heres to being a pretty fat girl lol!

I did quite a bit of shopping this week. Wednesday I picked up a couple of new items in Target, one of them was Covergirl Lastblast Luxe in Black Royale, which has some blue shimmer in it. The wand is really nice in this mascara. It is not like the conventional mascara wands. This mascara has little rubber nubs and it’s easier to apply close to the root and really elongate your lashes. I have long lashes already and this really extends them even further and gives them a really nice curl.

Tonight however, I decided to see what CVS had on sale because lately I have been hitting some really great deals. I got a huge haul of H.I.P. a few weeks ago, B.O.G.O. Tonight they were running the same deal but on Revlon and Maybelline cosmetics, not the L’oreal.  I did not pick out any Maybelline but I did get two new palettes from Covergirl, one of them was a three color eye-enhancers palette in firecracker, which is actually the top palette pictured. This reminded me of a tutorial I watched from Svetlana a few days ago where she got inspiration to do an eyelook from a green orchid. If you have ever seen one of those, they have this really pretty dark pink accents on the green petals.

I did take advantage of the B.O.G.O. on Revlon and actually stepped out of my comfort zone and bought a pink lipstick! This is so uncharcteristically like me in that I always go for neutrals or bold colors like crimson or chocolates. The color I picked out is called Paparazzi Pink, lol it was too cute to resist.  So anyway, here are my results with all three of the new products I purchased.

My friend got me hooked on doing make up in a big way and the first girl I subscribed to was Panacea81 and since then the flood gates have opened up and there are so many talented girls out there who are doing makeup tutorials and showing their makeup hauls, cosmetic reviews and it’s fabulous. I love all the girlie glamour and I felt that I wanted to share all of my favorite YouTube channels to make myself as pretty as can be (contrary to my last two videos hahaha). Some of these girls make a living as makeup artists and some do it just for the love of makeup and practicing and sharing their techniques for creating beautiful makeup looks. As I find more girls who are really doing some great makeup and hair tutorials I will post them here.

Pancea81 – Fun and dramatic makeup looks. Lots of great stuff

All That Glitters – Great makeup looks

Fafibaby – Another favorite with some super cute eye looks

Makeup Is My Love – Colorful vibrant makeup looks

Monroe Misfit Makeup – Retro Pinup looks

Nireyna – Beautiful romantic looks

Striking Image – Hair Styling Tips

xxSGTigressxx – Pinup style retro looks

I recently decided to give the cookie diet a try. This is something that I had been told about by my mother as she had seen it several times on various TV shows. I decided to give this a try and to see whether or not it delivers what it promises. I know this blog is about plus size and putting your best foot forward at whatever size we are at, however I do not feel there is anything wrong with wanting to be a smaller size for whatever reasons I have for wanting to be so. I realize that many other people in the plus size community would disagree and I’m not really here to make anyone happy except for myself.

If you are someone who is looking for something that will work for you than you might want to watch my review of it. If you feel just fine in your skin and don’t have a pound to lose then you may wish to skip over it. That’s the beauty of having 100% over our own choices. I hope you find what I have to say useful for you.
