So as we all know Christmas is swiftly approaching and we girls love gifts!!!!!! If you are anything like me you've been dropping hints to your friends and loved ones regarding what you would like to see under the Christmas tree this year!! In a previous blog post I let you all know a few things I wanted to get this year which were mostly body products (because I'm addicted to body products lol) In this post I wanted to share some of the makeup items that are on my list. I hope that you all find something that you are interested in putting on your list as well, or just get inspired by some things that you may have been debating on getting. I hope this helps you all pick some holidays goodies. Enjoy and until next time XOXO!!!!!!!!!!!









First up is this AMAZING blush from Dior that I have had my eye on for some time now. The color on this blush is simply amazing on WOC.

Keeping things in the blush family I have really been eyeballing this gorgeous coral blush from none other than my favorite Chanel

Next up is this beautiful rose colored lip duo from Chanel

Of course I couldn't for get about the eyes, and of course I have heard nothing but great things about this mascara from Chanel Le Volume De Chanel has a cult following

This next product really intrigues me every time I go to the Dior  counter and it's the Dior water proof eyeliner in brown. I really wanna see if I'm going to love this.

In my last post I mentioned the lip glow from Dior which is still on my list, but since then I have had a lot of recommendations to try the Creme De Rose lip balm from Dior.

NexGen, Nail Care and Starbucks....................

Hey there beauties!! I wanted to stop in and share some new things that I have discovered over the past few weeks that MUST be shared. First are Nexgen nails!!! This is an awesome nail technic that is quickly gaining popularity and tons of buzz. Their claim to fame is that they  look and feel natural and cause no damage to your nail beds. I have only had my first set on for about one week, but I can already say I am hooked. The process to get them applied is basically a "dipping" technic in which the nail tech adds a coat of an acrylic adhesive and then "dips" your nail in the colored powder in layers until this thickness is appropriate. There are hardly any files used except for shaping purposes and absolutely no drilling involved. The adhesive along with the colored powders are vitamin enriched thus making you natural nails strong and durable, instead of weak and brittle like traditional acrylics or even gel polishes. The whole process only took 45 mins, meaning I was able to get them done on my lunch break from work which was a plus. The salon that I went to ( and will continue to go to) provided over 100 colors in a variety of shades and include a free removal process with every application. Meaning no extra charge to get them off in addition to getting a new set. My total was only $33 which was FAB considering everywhere else in my area charged $45 and up. I will list the info to the salon below if you are in the Atlanta/Alpharetta area. I will also link below the products I have been using to keep my cuticles moisturized as well as my hands and nails.

My favorite cuticle oil

my favorite hand cream

The next thing that I wanted to mention to you is for my coffee lover, and that is the chestnut praline latte from Starbucks!!!! OMG this is total latte goodness to the last drop. I tried one the other more night on my early drive to work and I must say Christmas came to mind.I do believe that I will be enjoying one Christmas morning for sure!!! If you get the opportunity stop by your local Starbucks and grab one. Until next time!!!!!!!! XOXOX, Roya
