Addicted to Heroine

The first step to having an addiction is admitting that you have a problem. Hi my name is Sylvia Smith and I am addicted to buying Mac lipsticks. As of today, I own 7 different colors. And although that may not seem like a lot to some people, I cannot help but think about what color I want to buy next.
Honestly, it was love at first sight when I had laid my eyes on Heroine. I actually saw a customer at work with it on and I had to chase her down like a crazy person in order to find out what the name of this shade was. My addict-like instincts were telling me that it was a Mac lipstick and that just made me want to go out and buy it even more. What I love about this color is that you can get away wearing it in any season. This shade of purple has a slight pink undertone in the light that gives you girly look for summer and spring.  And for the winter and fall, all you need to do is layer that baby up with a coat or two and you got yourself a dark, sultry lip. 
When I first started buying Mac lipsticks, I had to learn what worked best for my skin color through trial and error. I kept buying nudes that were too light and I don't know about you, but the powdered donut look is not for me. I feel like there aren't that many NW45 beauty bloggers out there. So if you know any, please comment below and I'll definitely check them out. 
Oh, by the way, do you like my nails? They're press-ons! I purchased them at my local beauty supply store and filed them into a stiletto shape. It's my first time having kitty claws and I'm not gonna lie, they're a little hard to get used to. I couldn't even start the microwave without looking like a doofus. But I got loads of compliments at work. Tell me what you guys think.

Happy National Lipstick Day!!

Hi Guys! 

Today is National Lipstick Day! While I wholeheartedly feel today should be declared a national holiday, everyone isn't as passionate, therefore, the lippie lovers will enjoy the social media hype! Lol Are you a lipstick lover? Clearly, I am! If you're totally against lipstick, but you've never tried it.. Don't be so basic, there's no such thing as "I can't wear lipstick.." EVERYONE, can wear lipstick, it's all in a matter of confidence & finding your right shade! Speaking of shades, I'm going to share with you the Hues that every girl should have in her collection! 

1. A shade of RED
It amazes me how many ladies are afraid of red lipstick, but it's the most classic hue of them all. Here's a small little tip guide on choosing the right red:
My personal fave red lipstick is Ruby Woo by Mac! 
I absolutely love this shade, and it works great on every skin tone! 



2. A shade of NUDE
If you don't have the confidence to try any other color, please do me a favor and fall in love with a good nude lippie! It's safe to say, nude is definitely the new red; it's changeable, and can be worn everyday! My Nude pick would have to be Bare It All by Wet n Wild. 
I fell in love with this shade, and it works great for me, and plus, it's super inexpensive.



3. A shade of PURPLE
Purple is another color that can be worn everyday. It's one of those hues that's subtle enough for everyday wear, yet bold enough to add a pop of color. My all time favorite purple shade, is Up The Amp by Mac. 
I got hooked on this sucker, and don't know what I'd do without it!

4. A shade of PINK
Pink is the perfect girly lip color, and the perfect flirty lip color. It's the color of the fun girl, and probably the number one statement lipstick, well, next to red of course! It's hard picking a pink, because there are soooo many pretty shades, but if I had to choose the most essential pink lip color for me, I'd choose Candy Yum Yum by Mac! 
It's so bright and fun, I can wear it when I'm going for a fun look, but I can also match it with chic pieces as well. 

5. A shade of ORANGE
If you're not into lipstick, I know you're so far from orange. But if you're a lippie girl, you know that orange has definitely made it's mark in the lipstick world. My favorite orange lipstick would have to be Sushi Kiss by Mac.
It's so cutesy and adorable, and plus, it's great for summer. 


As you probably guessed, I'm definitely a MAC girl! Lol I love their lipsticks, but I also love other lipsticks too. To name a few.. Sephora, NYX, and Wet N Wild, are all definitely on that list. What are some of your favorite shades?! What lippies are you all rocking for National Lipstick Day?! Leave Comments Below!
