What I'm Using Presently 6! Plus, Chantecialle Haul!

My husband and I recently traveled to New Orleans.  And while we were there we went in Saks.  They had a Chantecaille counter, so, I thought I would finally try some of their products.  And I am so glad I did.  They are AMAZING!  



So, for this past week I have been using my newly found loves as well as a couple other things!



FACE:

Chaneticalle Compact Makeup in Camel  - This Powder has to be one of the top powders I have ever used.  I am debating on if it is actually my favorite ever.  It has a very silky smooth feeling and does not leave you looking cakey.  

Chantecialle Future Skin Oil Free Gel Foundation in Shea -  This is a very lightweight foundation with great coverage.  I like that it's made of ingredients that not only protect your skin, but heals it as well.  This too may be my favorite foundation.    




CHEEKS:

YSL Bronzing Powder in 3 - This is a lovely matte shade.  I like it because it isn't overly dark and has a nice build able color.  
Chantecialle Cheek Color in Delight -  Like all the other Chantecialle products this too is beyond good. And the color is a very pretty pink-coral that I feel would look good on several different skin tones.  I look forward to going to a Chantecialle counter and looking at their other colors.  



EYES:

MAC Mineralize Eyeshadow in Summer Haze - It's a really pretty Champagne color great for this Spring/Summer!
Laura Mercier Metallic Creame Eye Colour in Rose Rold - I love the Metallic Cream Eyeshadows, but something about the consistency of this particular color is different.  It doesn't apply nicely with fingers, it did require a brush for smooth application.  

(both applied with the MAC 234 Brush)



LIPS:

Tom Ford Lipstick in Nude Vanille  - This is my favorite color and brand of lipstick at the moment.  Tom Ford's lipsticks are nice matte colors with silky smooth application.  They feel really great on the lips.  

Chantecialle Brillant Gloss in Mirth -  These are one of the best lip glosses I have ever used.  They are smooth.  Have no scent and are not sticky.  The particular color I purchased is nice, but it doesn't wow me.  I am definitely going to see what other colors they have to offer.



What products are you really liking this week?

XOXO,

LOVE/HATE TAG

I was tagged by the lovely Tina! Thank you for tagging and do not forget to follow her blog as well!

This is the Love/Hate Tag. These are things I Love/Hate on myself. I am sure they may be acceptable on someone else, maybe YOU. Just not me!

Hope you Enjoy!

XOXO,
Lorraine

LIPS

Love
:

I LOVE Baby Pink, Nude Lips, Matte light colors. Or no lipstick at all.

Hate
:

I hate lipsticks with shimmer. I also hate lipstick that have brown tones. Only because they do not suit me.


FACE

Love:

Skin that looks flawless. Glowing skin. And a nice bronzer and highlight!

Hate:

That I take so much care of my skin. And it's not perfect. My friends that have perfect skin barely take care of their skin. It just shows it has a lot to do with genetics.


HAIR

Love:

Messy Hair! Long hair! Brown Hair! Blonde Hair! Red Hair! Sexy Bedhead! Big Hair! Porn star Hair!

Hate
:

How short my hair is! Layers that turn your hair into a mullet! Flipped up layered short hair. Zebra hair (too much of a contrast, stripey highlights/lowlights)

EYES

Love:

Neutral Smokey Eyes. Mascara. False Lashes. Winged Eyeliner. White Eyeliner. Flesh toned Eyeliner. No eye makeup at all.

Hate:

Colors on my eyes. I need to learn that my eyes are green and I need to play that up rather than continuing to try and add extra colors.


BODY

Love:

Soft skin. Slightly tanned, but not overdone.

Hate
:

Orange Skin. Dry Skin. Hairy Skin.


Feel Free to join in on the Tag!
