"We developed everything in the limited-edition UD | Gwen Stefani collection in close collaboration with Gwen. Wende and our product development team spent countless hours at Gwen’s house, talking makeup and working with her on every detail of the collection.
Gwen even directed the packaging design, which was inspired by her love of black-and-white graphic prints and antique gold accents. We created everything with Gwen, filling a void by developing all of the perfect shades she always wished she had in her collection. And with these products in your arsenal, you’ll have all the essentials to recreate her signature looks for yourself."

As you can see by the title of this post!!! I'm finally back to blogging everyone!!!!!!!! I know its been so long since I've put a post up, almost a year! As many of you probably already know I enrolled in Cosmetology school last December and yes I finally graduated and yes I'm a licensed cosmetologist in the state of Pennsylvania! The past year has been so crazy and man have I missed putting up posts on here!
OK so lets talk cosmetology school, if your looking into going and you feel its something that's really right for you, definitely go NOW! I have always known I was meant to have a career doing something that has to do with beauty, whether it be a hair stylist, nail technician, makeup artist, etc. I've grown up around my Aunt's salon and just always have known that the environment you find at a salon was where I wanted to be. I mean literally it was seriously where I wanted to be at all times, I'm going to let you guys in on a little secret..... My mom used to tell my school I was sick so I could go to work with her sometimes! Don't tell anyone HAHA! OK so back to my point, if you feel that your calling in life is to be in the cosmetology industry go with your gut and do it NOW! I cant tell you how much it sucks that I waited until I was 24 years old to go. I really wish I had went when I was fresh out of high school but I think in between the ages of 18-24 I wasn't sure what exactly I wanted to do with my career, until it finally clicked in my head, and better now than later I guess.
I want to share some of the things I have done at school by sharing photos from my cosmetology portfolio!!! I'm going to place a link to my online portfolio on here for you guys to view some of the work I've done while I was in school!!! I hope you guys enjoy it, I'm so very proud of my accomplishment in the past year and I hope you are too!

Hey everyone it's been forever and a day since my last review, I want to briefly apologize for my slack on my beauty blog. Life has gotten in the way lately as I'm still dealing with being unemployed and have been focusing a lot on finding a job and it's been quite rough and exhausting on me mentally. I've also had quite a few family emergencies as well! Now, I am back and I'm super excited to get back on track and I want to thank each and everyone one of you for staying as a subscriber/reader it really means the world to me. So without further ado, let's move onto this exciting review featuring the one and only Youngblood Cosmetics!!!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh I finally was able to get ahold of the Urban Decay Naked 3 palette at my local Sephora. Not even joking but I actually treated up a bit while checking out just because I was so excited to finally get my hands on it because it's been such a bummer waiting for stock to replenish and of course by the time I arrived to Sephora they would be sold out again. I finally have it now of course after everyone shared their reviews because I'm the last one to get ahold of anything lol, but I thought I would share with you my thoughts about this palette.

Hey everyone I just wanted to take the time to apologize about the lack of posts recently. I have been very sick with a severe cold that turned into minor stages of pneumonia so that has been the reason for my slacking lately so I do apologize for that. So without further ado, I wanted to talk a little about the new Urban Decay Holiday 2013 sets because they are stunning so let's move onto it.
Urban Decay has recently launched 2 holiday sets for the upcoming season and they are every makeup lovers dream!!! One of the two sets "The Mother Lode Set" features 68 yes I said 68 of the label's best selling eyeshadow tones which are full-sized and it also includes a one of their 4-pan custom palettes to travel with your favorites out of the 68. The set will set you back a pretty penny though, retailing for $595 but it said to have a $1234 value.
The second set called "The Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil Vault" features 40 full-sized eye pencils in a variety of textures and finishes. Not all of the pencils in this kit are the label's best sellers, but 13 of them are actually new shades. This kit will also set you back a few bucks, retailing at $295but does have a $760 value.
Both sets are available at Sephora! I will be sure to post links below to them, so go check them out!
I hope you guys enjoyed this post and be sure to leave a comment with your thoughts on the holiday sets from Urban Decay. Have a beautiful day everyone!!!
