Recent M.A.C Purchases!
Hi lovelies! Today's post is about my recent M.A.C purchases. I don't really shop from M.A.C too much. Their face products break me out so bad. I just recently started buying their lipsticks but, to be honest, I do prefer shopping at Sephora because I have more variety. However, I did pick up two matte lipsticks for the summer, "So Chaud" and "Candy Yum Yum." I'm going to have so much fun with them!
The first one I picked up was "So Chaud." It's a bright reddish orange color with yellow undertones. Be aware that this does make your teeth look a bit yellow. I tired on "Morange," and "Lady Danger" but this one looked the best on me. Forgive me for my terrible swatches but here they are.

My First Experience With Inglot!
Hi lovelies! Today's post is going to be about my recent Inglot purchase! I discovered this brand a couple of years ago through a YouTube guru, "LittleKiva." She used the Inglot gel liners in her tutorials a lot. Since then, I noticed that the company was gaining popularity very rapidly in the YouTube beauty community. However, most of the beauty gurus rave about their eye shadows and as much as I love collecting eye shadows, I thought I would give the lipsticks a try instead.
Inglot has a wide range of lip colors. You can either buy them in a classic tube or buy the Freedom System. It's basically like an empty palette and you fill it up with lipstick pans. It's more practical for people who want to try out a lot of colors or for makeup artists. I just wanted to try out two colors so I bought the regular lipstick tubes. The two colors I picked out are from their matte collection, #415 and #412.
I absolutely love the colors I picked out. One of the colors, #415, is a pinkish nude color. The other, #412, is a deep berry color. Ugh! My favorite. I looked for this color at every store in NYC and they were completely sold out. A friend was sweet enough to order them online and give them to me as a present. YaY!
Ready for the Pros and Cons?! No? Well, too bad!!
Pros
-Cheaper than MAC ($12)
- Quality is just as good if not better.
- Wide range of colors. They even have blue!
Cons
- A wee bit too drying
-Not many Inglot retailers available! You can find them at certain Macys stores and free standing Inglot stores. I believe there are only two in NYC.
Here are the swatches!
| Inglot #415 |
| Inglot #412 Excuse my chapped lips! Swatches make my lips very dry! Here is a swatch of both lippies on the back of my hand.
I hope you guys liked the post! You can learn more about Inglot products and purchase them at www.inglotusa.com.
Happy Shopping, ladies!! Remember to always Stay Beautiful! xoxo

My Current Favorites!
Hi lovies! I'm back with another post and this one is very important for me because this corresponds with my first Youtube video of my new channel! As you may know, I had a Youtube channel before titled "MakeupByRuru." I don't know what I was thinking when I picked that name because I felt like all I could post were beauty videos. In my new channel, however, I'm going to be posting up vlogs, beauty, fashion and cooking videos! I am super excited about this new channel and I'm also getting distracted so let's get back to this post, ma homies!
Today, I will be talking about my current favorites in beauty and fashion. Let's start off with beauty! My first beauty favorite is the L'oreal Magic Lumi Foundation. It is a great everyday foundation. It has an SPF of 20 and it makes skin look dewy. I have oily/combo skin and it's great because it doesnt make me more oily and definitely covers the few dry patches I have around my mouth. My shade is W6 Sun Beige. My next favorite is the Magic Lumi Primer. I love this product because you can use it as a primer and a highlighter. I use this primarily as a highlither becasue it has no shimmer but gives you a dewy glow and looks like you are glowing from within. The last face product I'm loving is the Milani Baked Blush in "Coralina." The name describes the color of the blush perfectly. Absolutely love this blush for the spring. It has gold shimmer swirled into it so you really dont need to use a highlighter. Here's a swatch.
The next couple of products I'm loving are the Revlon Photoready 3D Volume mascara and the Maybelline Falsies Flared Mascara. I combine them together to get the false lash effect. They don't flake and definitley do not make my eyelashes feel stiff. This is my Holy Grail combination. Last but not least, for eyes, I am loving the L'oreal Smoldering Eyes Liner. It is super pigmented and does not smudge on the water line. It's also great for smoking out any eye look.
Now on to my favorite part; the lippies!!!! Kat Von D Liquid Lisptick in "Outlaw" and NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in "Monte Carlo" have to be my most worn lip products this past winter. "Outlaw" is a true red. What you see in the container is what you get. "Monte Carlo," however, shows up a lot more pink on my lips. My favorite neutral lipstick is MAC "Please Me." It's a great mauve-y pink color and its close to my natural lip color so it works great as an everyday lipstick. I have great pictures of swatches on my hand but not on my lips. Here are some of the pictures I took.
| L-R: Outlaw, Monte Carlo, & Please Me |
Here is a picture of the products on my lips. If you look closely, "Outlaw" has a blue-ish undertone, great for making your teeth look whiter, while "Monte Carlo" has a pink undertone.
| Kat Von D on top and NYX on the bottom |
Let's move on to nails! I am obsessed with nail polish and the next two are perfect for spring! Such pretty pastel colors! The first one is Essie's "Bond With Whomever" and its a lilac color. This looks great on tan skin. The next one is from Nicole by Opi's Selena Gomez Collection called "Selena" This is like a peachy coraly color. Not the most flattering color for my skintone but I can't figure out why I love it so much. Both have a great formula. You only need two coats to make it opaque.
| Essie "Bond With Whomever" |
| Nicole By Opi "Selena" |
The next couple of thngs is fashion related so I won't really go into details about why I love them. I'll just show you the pictures. Check out the pants, watch and ring!
| Harem Pants and knuckle ring from Forever21. Watch from Guess. Watch the Youtube Video! |
I hope you guys liked this post. More coming soon! Until then, Stay Beautiful! xoxox

Wet n' Wild Love!
Hi lovies! I am back in the blogging world again! A lot of things have been going on in my life and I finally have some time to put into this blog. So let's get down to business!!
Today I wanted to share my love for Wet n' Wild cosmetics with you! I am sure you all know about this brand and if you don't then you must be living under a rock! Youtube gurus rave about every single product from this brand and I am a huge fan as well! However, this post will focus on their lipsticks, specifically their Mega Last Lipsticks. Let me first list the pros and cons for you:-
- Extremely Pigmented - Lipstick breaks off at the stem
- Matte but not drying at all

Youtube gurus rave about every single product from this brand and I am a huge fan as well! However, this post will focus on their lipsticks, specifically their Mega Last Lipsticks. Let me first list the pros and cons for you:-
Pros Cons
- Price:- $2.99- $3.99 - Packaging gets dirty very easily - Extremely Pigmented - Lipstick breaks off at the stem
- Matte but not drying at all
These are all of the ones I have collected so far and I love each and every one of them!
These are the swatches of all the lippies from the pic above.
L to R:- 918 Cherry Bomb, 914C Mocha-licious, 906D Wine Room, 965 Cherry Picking, 905D Smokin' Hot Pink, 910D Red Velvet, 966 Don't Blink Pink, 968 Pinkerbell, 902C Bare it All, 901B Think Pink.
There is one lipstick I left out of these swatches and that is 907C Mauve Outta Here. This is my favorite lipstick out of all the ones I own from this brand. It is such a pretty color and is very close to the color of my natural lips. Here is the swatch for you!
The next couple of lipsticks are going to be from the Fergie Collection. I believe Fergie is the new Brand Ambassador. She came out with a new limited edition collection a few months ago and I scooped up a couple of lipsticks. The formula is the same as the Mega Last ones but the packaging is different.
From L to R:- Ferguson Crest Cabernet, Fergie Daily, Bebot Love.
My favorite is Ferguson Crest Cabernet. I have heard that its a dupe for MAC Rebel. I don't own it but I have seen swatches online and it seems pretty damn close!
I can't wait to try more of their products. I hope this post was helpful for you guys. Stay tuned for my next post and always stay beautiful inside and out! xoxoxo

Requested Kareena Kapoor Look!
Hi lovies! I just re-created another celebrity look. This was requested by one of my viewers and this is by far my favorite! This was the look Kareena Kapoor wore in the movie Kurbaan. It is such a simple look and it has a little bit of an Arabic feel to it. I just want to remind you that it looks a little different on me than it does on Kareena because a) I am not as fair as her so the colors are going to show up a little different on my eyes than it does on hers that is why I used such vibrant colors b) she is beautiful eyes and my eyes aren't as pretty as her and c) I don't have the exact colors she it using. I am using colors that I think closely resemble hers. So I hope you enjoy this look!
