Beauty Review: Dior Diorskin Forever Flawless Perfection Wear Makeup


What it is: A liquid foundation with an SPF 25.

What it does: Creates a flawless face whilst also adjusting to your skin type, to give you, a ultra smooth face that last all day.

How much does it cost and where can i get it: It is available in 12 shades online at Sephora. It is also available in most department stores such as Bloomingdales, Macy's, Nordstorm and on amazon. It retails for $47.

How I feel about it: As far as foundation go, i've tired a lot of them, whether they be high street ones or luxury ones. One thing they all have in common however, is that they fail in comparison to this foundation. This is my go to foundation when i want my skin to look flawless and perfect the whole night. If i have a breakout or my skin has just been all around bad, once i put this on, its as if i have perfect skin. I constantly get complements that my skin looks great.  This foundation is extremely long wearing on me, and i have oily to combination skin. In the summer this adjust to more matte texture whilst in the winter when my skin goes dry this is more moisturizing. I do believe that this adjust to your skin type and because of that this is a great year round foundation. This blends nicely whether you use a brush, your hand or a beauty blender. My only complaint is that their shades tend to be a bit on the pinky side. 

Getting down to the point: This is my all time favorite foundation, even if i find something new, i always go back to this. It covers well, is not cake, last all day, smells divine and the packaging is pretty. I would recommended this to everyone, better yet get to your local beauty counter pick it up, and im sure you'll love it swell.

Rant & Rave: Gucci Eau de Parfum ll


I must admit I am one of those girls who has far too many perfumes in her closet. At one point I had 18 perfumes that I was actively used. I was always one to pair my perfumes with my mood or my outfit. Going out clubbing in the summer?  Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue. Wearing a flirty boho Free People dress? Marc Jacobs Daisy. Going to a sophisticated family function? Thierry Mugler's Alien. 

However over the years i have been looking for my perfect signature scent, something that was sweet but sophisticated. Something that I could wear to brunch or out dancing. When i finally found Gucci Eau de Parfum 2, I knew I had found the one. It last a long time and its one of those perfumes where you'll spray it on your scarf and the next time you go to wear that scarf you'll smell it again. If you like Tocca Graciella or Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb, i suggest you give this a sniff the next time you are in the beauty department of your favorite store. 

You can buy Gucci eau de Parfum ll online at sephora or on amazon
