Youtube Makeup Review: Besame Cosmetics!

I finally finished editing my very first video makeup review on Youtube:
My Favorite Retro Makeup: Besame Cosmetics!



I am totally excited about this makeup that I can't stop talking about it. And what I am also excited is that finally I got to take some pictures that really showed the real color of these fabulous makeup!

Now mind you, my video didn't have good lighting, which ended up looking vintagey. So I had to add these two photos of me wearing Besame Cosmetics to the video. Now the ladies could appreciate these products.


And voila!











I can't wait to order more makeup! I know exactly what I want!


To buy these wonderful makeup I invite you to visit: Besame Cosmetics.




Chao,

My Besame Cosmetics!

I am totally excited because I just received my very first Besame Cosmetics products! A few months ago I had the privilege in interviewing the owner and founder of Besame Cosmetics Inc, Gabriela Hernandez. When I read how much thought went into making theses products, I wanted to try them myself. And I have to tell you that I am a very HAPPY customer!

Over the years I have tried different kinds of beauty products, and I have never used anything like Besame Cosmetics! These products are 100% luxurious! From the beautifully retro designed packaging, to the very lush quality of the products itself, there are no comparison!

Did you know that Besame Cosmetics are the only reproduction beauty products there is? That is why you can't find anything like this.

I couldn't keep all the excitement to myself. So I wanted to share with you my little treasure!




So here is what I got:

  • Red Velvet: Voluptuous Lip Cololur
  • Signature Compact with Cashmere Pressed Powder/ Medium
  • Peacock Blue Shadow
  • Black Pear Shadow




This is my new and now favorite compact! I was blown away by the porcelain affect this powder had on my skin! You won't need to apply foundation with this compact, which is excellent for that girl on the run! Also, Isn't she a doll? What I love is that both my compact and my eye shadows come with their own red velvet pouch. Such glamours girls, just like their mom!





My Red Velvet lipstick is now one of my favorites lipstick! When I first tried this lipstick I couldn't believe how lush it was! The coverage was excellent! I also love the yummy chocolaty scent it has. My lipstick came with it's own lip liner and a little brush applique. And she also came with her own velvety black pouch.





Last but not least, this is that perfect retro eyeshadow that I have been looking for! When I finished applying my new Besame Cosmetics eyeshadow, I immediately felt that it completed and complemented my retro look! I knew that it was a keeper!

I am thrilled to announce that I am a new Besame Girl! So if you any questions about these beautiful products or if you would like to sell them in your beauty salon you can contact me at anytime! My email is: retrotimesproductions@yahoo.com


And if you would like to purchase these products for yourself you may visit: Besame Cosmetics.

My Makeup Bag


Lately, I have been waking up very early in the morning, which I am not use to. I have never been a morning person. Like a flower that is slowly opening it's petal, I slowly get myself out of the bed, shower, drink my smoothie, and put on my outfit and shoes and I am out the door.




So because I have become a girl on the run, I haven't had time to properly do my beauty routine, which includes applying my facial cream, sunblock, and makeup in front of my vanity. So yes, I have been applying my makeup in the car, which I am not crazy about. The problem though was that is that my old makeup case was not big enough. The solution: I bought this cute mod style Lancome makeup bag, which I totally love!





This fancy makeup bag comes with two compartments. The compartment where is made out of a transparent material is where I have my eye, blush, foundation and makeup powder. The other compartment is made out of a netted material, there I have my brushes, and my two smaller makeup case where I have my lipstick, pencils, mascara and liquid eye liner.





My Lancome bag also came with it's own signature mini makeup bag, isn't it super chic?


With my new makeup bag I feel so organized!



Chao,

Soft Hair and Makeup!

These are some close-up photo shoot that I took with my lacy slip dress. Whenever I wear something soft and feminine it makes me feel romantic! So I decided to add some soft waves to my hair, which I did by doing pin-curls. For my makeup, I wore a soft rosy-brown lipstick for my lips. And for my eyes I applied a golden-white eye shadow. And to complete the whole look, I delineated my eyes with liquid eye liner and extended an upper cat- eye tip.

And viola! A soft and romantic look, perfect for a diner date!











I just love being a girl!
