Femme Fetch: NARS Illuminator

Loving my NARS Illuminator in the shade Laguna, especially for the summer. This stuff works great on the body and face. Decent amount of wear time but keep it in your purse for long days or nights. Best applied or at least blended with fingers.

Mix High &Low: Pair the Nars Illuminator of your choice with one of the Tango with Bronzing Powders from NYX Cosmetics. The powder will add a bit more dimension to your glow and also work to set the NARS Illuminator for longer wear.

Femme Fetch: e.l.f. Contouring Blush & Bronzer in St. Lucia

Loving the blush/bronzer combo from e.l.f cosmetics!!!! I have been impressed by e.l.f. a few times before, the line is pretty solid considering the price point.

I picked up the duo in the shade St. Lucia which is supposedly comparable to the NARS Orgasm/ Laguna Duo. The two are definitely similar with wear time and packaging. The difference comes in the pigment pay off, NARS being the better of the two. I get great color from the e.l.f. duo, but takes a bit more product.

The St. Lucia is the most universal shade of the 3, surprisingly. e.l.f offers two deeper duos, but St. Lucia is definitely my favorite.

Femme Tip: For girls deeper in tone, use the bronzer shade only slightly below the blush shade almost overlapping the two shades. It creates a warmth that looks more natural to darker skin.

Femme Fetch: Beauty For Real Lip Gloss

Totally loving this lipgloss and have been for the past few months. Super moisturizing, good color pay off, nice range of shades, and mirror with light built into the gloss. I am kinda obsessed. Look out for a video review soon with the lip gloss and cream cheek tint.

So Femme!!!!

This stuff is really amazing, like I’m serious, check it out.

Femme Fetch: VS Pro Pout FX Lip Primer and Definer I am a fan of Victoria’s Secret makeup especially the VS Pro stuff. I really think the line excels with products intended to help you get the most wear and durability out of your makeup. The VS Pro Pout FX Lip Primer and Definer is an amazing product. Put simply, it works. The promise is to prevent smearing and feathering specifically when going for a fuller lipped look. If you tend to draw outside your natural lip line to get a bigger pout, you want this product. So Femme !!!

Femme Fetch: Revlon Nearly Naked Foundation w/ SPF 20

Loving this foundation for daytime wear. Light to medium coverage, broad spectrum SPF, and velvety satin/matte finish. Works great with all skin types and provides effective protection from the sun. I suggest keeping this foundation exclusively for daytime/ everyday wear and going for a different foundation when going out. Not enough strength in the coverage department for nighttime and foundations with SPF tend to photograph a bit badly. Wish they had a few darker shade options, but this always seems to be my request to almost all cosmetics lines as a dark glamazon princess. I picked up this foundation at my local CVS for $10 USD, which saves me more money to waste on makeup elsewhere.

Look out for a demo/ review video soon.

Femme Fetch: Urban Decay Big Fatty Mascara

I have not been this impressed with a mascara in long time. Please seriously consider purchasing this amazing product from Urban Decay. This formula and the brush focus on both adding volume and length to the lashes, but definitely more on the volume side of things. Big Fatty works for the femmes wanting to get a slightly false and dramatic effect. The only downside to this mascara and many other high end mascaras is that the cost (Urban Decay Big Fatty retails for $20) is not always worth the short 2-3 month shelf life that mascaras have.

Femme Tip: Mascara is all about the brush, that’s what gives you the different looks. Try keeping the brush of your favorite mascaras and just buy a cheap mascara and use the wands you have saved versus the wand it comes with.

Femme Fetch: Kat Von D Painted Love Lipstick Kat Von D’s line of lipsticks are converting me into a believer. I hoard more lip products than anything else and all the lipsticks from the Painted Love Line are up to Femme Boy’s standards. If you want full out color with a lustrous shine then you want Kat Von D. I am currently loving the shades Lolita, Rosary, Homegirl, and A-Go-Go. The lipstick last for a few hours like any standard lipstick so be sure to carry your shade with you for touch ups. So Femme!!!

Femme Fetch: Iman Second to None Stick Foundation Currently loving my Iman Stick Foundation!!!! Totally believing in the power of more cream based foundations thanks to Bobbi Brown, MAC, and now Iman. This stick is great for all skin types and a number of skin tones. Iman Cosmetics isn’t just for “black” femmes it’s for a myriad of people looking to get better coverage options. The Iman Second to None Stick Foundation dries down to a velvet matte finish, which I love. If Iman Cosmetics can do anything it is definitely coverage and foundation. Will be picking up the their BB Cream soon for sure. So Femme!!!!

Femme Fetch: Lush Cosmetics Curly Wurly Shampoo Okay, so I don’t have much hair but I can’t seem to get over trying to find super moisturizing hair products. I love this shampoo to death, like seriously until death comes I will love this shampoo. Curly Wurly is super moisturizing with pieces of coconut , cocoa butter, eggs, and avocado worked into this heavenly formula. Outside of the obvious benefits for curlier and thicker hair, you gotta love the amazing smell. I sometimes put this stuff all over my body too, it’s that addictive. Try this stuff paired with the H’Suan Wen Hua Hair Treatment to really get soft, sensuous hair. So Femme !!!!

Femme Fetch: Red Cherry Lashes I have rediscovered my love for falsies in Red Cherry Lashes. I stumbled upon these super cheap lashes with one of the widest selections ever a few weeks ago and I keep going back to get more. It doesn’t help that the store I am going to sells them for $2 USD a pair or 6 for $10. How can I say no to a deal like that? My favorites so far are the 138, WSP, 523, and the 140. There is nothing more femme and fetch than a pair of totally over the top lashes. Try Amazon or Lady Moss.com to get your hands on these lashes if you can’t find them in your area. I am in Chicago and I just go to Beatnix on Halstead, there you can get a ton for cheap along with some good Ben Nye Products too. Be Bold, Be Femme!!!

Still loving MAC Face and Body Foundation, especially in the winter. Great hydration!!!! So Femme !!!!

Femme Fetch: Alterna Bamboo Shine Luminous Shine Mist For having such a little amount of hair I manage to hoard a good amount of hair products and most don’t do much to impress me really. But I have to say that the Bamboo Shine Mist is my favorite hair product right now. I love it primarily for the light weight feel, non-greasy shine, and the fragrance. The stuff smells so amazing, like I can’t get over it. The Bamboo Shine product line is Eco- Friendly, which is great. The biggest drawback is the entire line seems a bit overpriced, but the products are solid none the less. So Femme!!!!

Femme Fetch: Ben Nye Banana Powder and Mojave Contour Wheel Not sure why I haven’t tried the Ben Nye Banana Powder yet, but excited to finally see what all the fuss is about. I swatched a number of the luxury powders in different shades and the banana powder seemed to work best despite it’s distinct difference from my skintone. I find this powder to be awesome and oh so femme for setting your highlight. Ben Nye’s Mojave Contour Wheel was a great find for the price of $14 USD alone. Great shades for ethnic skin and I suggest everyone look into a contour wheel that corresponds with your skintone no matter what it is. The shades have great color pay off and blend well. Look for an updated foundation video with contouring and highlighting within the next week. Super excited, hope you are too. Be Bold, Be Femme!!!

Femme Fetch: Illamasqua Rich Liquid Foundation Loving this full coverage foundation. This stuff is the ultimate in covering up any and everything, can even work as a concealer. Great on all skin types and is especially perfect for us oily femmes wanting a foundation to stay put all day. Also loving the Illamasqua Skin Base Foundation for day to day wear.
