MAC Eyeshadow: Modelette

I typically do not like writing about products that have been discontinued, but I am absolutely in love with this eyeshadow and I think it deserves an entire post dedicated to it. This infamous eyeshadow is Modelette.


Modelette is the perfect mid-tone brown that is great for the crease and for blending darker colors. I find myself using this shadow almost every day. I use it as a crease color with a light, shimmery color all over the lid. My other favorite way to wear this color, is as a transition color. When I decide to wear a darker color throughout the crease, Modelette is great to put to warm up the eye and not make such a harsh line from the crease to the brow bone.



What is your favorite crease shade?

Revlon Photo Ready Cream Blush: Flushed

I write to you today with a new favorite product of mine: cream blush. Now typically, I don't like cream blushes because I have super oily skin, but I love this cream blush from Revlon. Flushed was released in the early summer collection. They had three cream blushes in the collection and I, of course, picked the bright fuscia color.


Flushed is a bright, almost fuscia, pink color. The product comes in pot form with a twist off cap. The cream blush itself is extremely light and airy feeling. It is not heavy at all, which makes it perfect for oily cheeks, like mine! I find it works best with a synthetic stippling brush. You can use your fingers, but I find that the product can sometimes become splotchy that way. 



Overall, this blush is great for summer. I love just popping a little bit on the apples of my cheeks. It really awakens the face and makes you look youthful, which who wouldn't like that?

Have you tried any of the Revlon cream blushes?
