Hello my readers. Even though I love writing in this blog more than most things in my life, I will be taking a vacation , for the summer. I just got done a very big show with the company I work for and couldn't blog at all when I really wanted to. That stressed me out and I was sad thinking about you all. Plus our family has quite a bit of activities this summer that honestly, I wont have the time to brainstorm, take pictures, research and then put my thoughts to computer. That wouldn't be fair to just post any old thing, just to get something out.

I am still on Instagram however and will do all of my sharing of my love and thoughts for Makeup, Skincare, Fashion, Nails, Jewelry, Music, Planners and anything I just love and have to share with my friends. Please follow me on Instagram if you aren't already.     I'm MS.CURLYGIRLBEAUTY.

I will be holding mini giveaways on my IG account so keep an eye out for that as well!!

I hope you all have a great summer and keep in contact through IG. Once my blog is back in action I will do a big giveaway to get everyone back in the swing of reading!

Talk to you at the end of summer! Take care and have a great one!! Xo        ~Tiara

This is seriously a product that I know I'd get the most use of because I usually wear minimal makeup. And if this makeup helps me look a little bit put together without feeling or looking like I put on a lot of makeup or spent a long time putting makeup on, then I am SOLD!


Let's just look up at this pretty little ensemble above.  When I first opened it, I was so excited of this palette, especially the (brighten) blush because it has such pretty glitter in it. Not a lot....and not big flecks. Small fine glitter. Oh so pretty.

Now, I purchased this on Sephora.com for $39.00.  
What it is:
A complete kit to keep you looking naturally flawless on the go with concealer, luminizer, brightener, powder blush, crème blush, and bronzer.

What it does:
This multitasking face palette is your answer to creating the illusion of flawlessness. The collection is dedicated to complexion perfection—for a flawless “I was born perfect” look—any time of the day. With Too Faced’s signature how-to Glamour Guide included with three looks to get you started, the kit has everything you need to create a complete makeover, so it’s great for traveling or overnight stays.

This set contains:
- 0.28 oz Bronzing Veil
- 0.1 oz Crème Blush
- 0.11 oz Powder Blush
- 0.05 oz Concealer
- 0.06 oz Luminizer
- 0.05 oz Brightener

What it is formulated WITHOUT:
- Parabens

What else you need to know:
This is a 100% cruelty-free product.


I think it's worth it if you need a little bit of all of these products. The colors in the pallet are very lovely but I do think they work best on people with pink under tones. I have yellow undertones, so it wasn't a PERFECT look, but nonetheless....I liked it.

This palette is a natural looking, semi-good value, great for luminous sheen, very creamy, great size-travel size, easy to use (comes with a little booklet of looks), long lasting...It's still on and I can even see the blush!! Most palette's the blush lacks in lasting long.


On my model above, this is her with only foundation on. Nothing else on. I started with the concealer, covering any blemishes or marks. Then I applied the luminous concealer under her eyes, bridge of nose and above her cupid's bow. I then applied the bronzing veil, which in my opinion, is for very light colored skin. I have to use quite a bit of it on my model and on myself. Last I applied the Brighten Blush.


I added a little bit of eyeshadow and lined lightly her eyes with brown eyeshadow for a completed look.



The 3 pictures above are the final look. She loved it because she usually doesn't wear any makeup. I definitely have to say this gives a polished no makeup look....100%. This palette is for the person that doesn't wear much makeup, is unsure how to wear makeup, or just wants to look put together without spending too much time on getting ready.


For the more mature skin, this is me. Above I have no make up on other than my eyebrows are filled in.



Above in the two pictures, you can see a big difference, yet, I still look like I hardly have much makeup on. I did add a little pit of silver eyeshadow to go along with my dress. However, everything else is from this great palette.

Now, I will mention one negative and that is the amount of the Bronzing Veil. Because it is so light, I feel like I used a ton of it just to give my skin some color. So either if there were a range of colors OR more product...I would be fine with.

Hope this posting helps. Hope you all are having a great day. Thanks for stopping by!! Talk to ya soon! Xo!!

These four brushes are my most favorite eye brushes that I own. I usually use these four brushes every time I apply eye shadows.  Something about the four together....help my shadows look fabulous.

First, I have mature skin. I am 42 years old and my skin isn't what it used to be when I was 24. I also have deep set/hooded eyes as well.  So, it can be challenging to put on makeup just as almost everyone else does.

I have always had a hard time finding the "right" brushes for my eye shape. After 20 years, I think I've finally found the perfect brushes.


All four brushes are from Sigma. I've tried numerous high end and low end brushes and these were the only ones that work on a consistent basis. So most of my every day brushes, for every use, is by Sigma.

The E37 is an All Over Blend. The E37 All Over Blend™ features a firm rounded brush head great for softening harsh lines and buffing out dark colors for a well-blended effect.​ Best for going over your entire lid to blend any harsh lines when mixing more than one shade. I purchased this on Sigma's Website for $16.00. Not to bad to have my shadows all nicely blended!!

The F63 is an Airbrush Blender. The F63 Airbrush Blender™ features a firm, yet soft brush head with a slightly rounded tip. Use this brush with cream or liquid products anywhere on the face for an airbrushed effect. Delivers an airbrushed application of concealer for a diffused, well-blended finish. I purchased this on Sigma's Website for $16.00. Great price to help blend my concealer &/or cream shadows with an airbrushed effect!!!


The E59 is the Wide Shader. I use this to pack on the eye shadow colors I'm going to be using most of...on my whole entire lid. The E59 Wide Shader features a wide, flat and slightly rounded synthetic brush head to easily cover the whole lid with a single color for a quick natural look. I purchased this brush on Sigma's Website for $16.00 as well.

Lastly, but certainly not least, the E20 which is the Short Shader brush. The E20 Short Shader features a small, soft brush head great for smudging out color along the lash line. Offers superb control when applying color to very small areas of the eye. I personally use this brush to go in and make a distinct line to make it look like my mobile lid is a little bit wider what I have. Hence, it helps with my deep set eyes, to bring them out! I purchased this brush on Sigma's Website for $14.00.

I purchased all my sigma brushes in Chrome. Sigma also puts brushes in groups and sells them at a cheaper price. Please make sure you check all the packages they offer to see if you can find a better deal.

Hope this post helps those of you who may have issues with finding the perfect brushes. They are definitely worth the money! Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day and talk with you soon! Xo!

This concealer pen I have is 3 Up All Night. It is 2.5ml/.08 fl. oz. of product which I purchased from Sephora for $39.00. To me, this price is out of my price range but everyone I love watching on YouTube and everyone I love reading their blogs, had raved about it. So, I had to give it a try. I honestly wasn't thinking too much of it, only because I had tried Marc Jacob's Genius Gel Supercharged Foundation and HATED IT! No matter what technique I used to apply, no matter what primer or no primer, it just looked.....horrible. So, I went into this without letting my hopes get to high.


This all-in-one eraser, brightener and corrector is the perfect fix for the sins of a carefree youth (or just the aftermath of last night). Containing Remedy Complex™, a blend of hydrating and anti-aging ingredients, this next-generation concealer erases evidence of dehydration and fatigue. Remedy pen dispenses the perfect amount of product with just one click.



Here are the highlights of this pen:
• Contains Remedy Complex™, an anti-aging blend of theine (caffine), collagen, vitamin water, and coconut extracts.  
• Patented palladium applicator cools on contact, reducing puffiness.
• Two universal brightening and correcting shades flatter across skin tones. 
• Hydrating, moisturizing, and anti-aging complex brightens, conceals, and soothes.


I believe there are 9 or 10 shades to choose from. Mine matched pretty well. It didn't really brighten anything but it covered pretty well. One pump definitely isn't enough for too much. The photo above is about 3-4 pumps and that's about the size it covers best. (below)


As you can see from the picture above, you can see the lines on my hand. It does the same on my face. I didn't like that at all. No matter what I did, it just melted into my fine lines. If you don't have any, I think this would really work well for you, but those of us that have some fine lines or more mature skin....I don't recommend this. For the price you pay, you need a little bit more than the suggested 1 pump to conceal. So, I feel this product will move faster than other concealer brands.

I honestly have drug store brands for less than $10, that in my opinion do a better job with my skin. It isn't horrible, as I do like that it covers my dark circles and blemishes. It's just the price, doesn't justify.

So, if you are younger with no fine lines....and can afford it - get it!! It's great for you. For those of us who are limited on makeup funds and have some lines on our faces - I'd skip this one.

Hope this was helpful to you gorgeous people. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day. Talk with you soon! Xo
