!My Top 11 makeup Prodcucts of 2011!

So since today is New Years Eve it is time to round off my top 11 makeup products I used the most this year!

So:
2 face
2 eyes
2 lips
2 nails
2 hair
1 palette

FACE:
1. Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray. This stuff is just amazing. I just ran out of my first bottle and I need a new one ASAP. This spray keep your makeup on for so long!
2.Maybelline Dream Mousse blush in Peach Satin. I always come back to this blush when I dont know what to wear. It just soo pretty and light with like gold littler shimmers.

EYES:
1. Cover girl Country Woods Quad. I cant stress to you enough how much I wore this. I hit pan on two of the colors. They just looked so good on my eyes!
2. Urban Decay Primer Potion in Eden. Wow I finally got my first primer to keep my eyeshadow on and this is amazing. It evens out my skin tone on my lid and it keeps my eye shadows from creasing. I just love it.

LIPS:
1. EOS lip Balm in Sweet Mint. Okay these lip balms make your lips so smooth and ugh I used my everyday and I still do. I even bought a second one!
2. Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in Citrus Slice. This lipstick was part of one collection where it suppose to look like you ate a Popsicle. The Lipstick itself is like clear like you can see through the lipstick. When you put it on your lips it is like a perfect tint of pink.

NAILS: ( This is hardd!)
1.Nicole by O.P.I in the Color "Baby" Blue. Yes this is from the Justin Bieber line but thats not why I like it. It is just such a unique pretty blue on your nails. It stays on forever and I wore it sooo much this summer.
2. Essie in the color California Coral. I love this color. I dont own any Coral nail polishes but this one is so prettyyy.

HAIR:
1. Sultra Flat Iron. I loveee this flat iron so much. The one before I was using was soo bad. All the color on the plates were coming off and it was horrible. So my mom said to get a good flat iron that will last me forever and this one will! It did cost a pretty penny but for me I flat Iron my hair almost everyday so it was worth it!
2. Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Nutrient Spray. I have been using this since my Birthday in March. It just makes me feel like my hair is getting all the Vitamins it needs and it makes my hair feel supper soft after too.

PALETTE:
1. Urban Decay Naked Palette: This is def a no brainier! Man I used this so much this summer when I got it and I have already resivred for my Naked 2 palette at Ulta! This was one of the best $50 I have spent this year! I recommend everyone to get it!

Be yourself

I know this is nothing beauty related but I wanted to do a post about my nephew Carter. I really wanted to talk about self esteem and being you and not caring what other people think. And your thinking what does this have to do with Carter, a little baby boy who is only a 13 months old? Well Carter recently had to wear a helmet for almost the whole year of his life. People always stared, gave weird looks, and admittedly jumped to conclusion that he had mental problems or maybe down syndrome etc... Im very blessed and lucky that he didnt but he did have plagiocephaly which just means his head was a not exactly round and kinda slanted. Carter is very lucky to have parents that love him a lot and made sure that his head could be corrected. I would go out with Carter and my sister right after we got the helmet and it was an adjustment. I remember, I don't know where we were, but someone had stared and started pointing and whispering. I looked right at them and they saw me but didn't smile or anything. Its rude in general to stare at anyone but when I look directly at you and your whispering and pointing come on now. I could never imagine sitting and staring at baby and whispering about the way they look right in front of the parents. Im not saying everyone was mean and like that. Carter always got a smile from people and Carter would smile right back like the nice boy he is.

What I'm really trying to say is that judgment of a person starts when you're young. It is sad to say but it does. I really learned a lot from Carter. He is just a baby and of course didn't know that he has a helmet(well he did because it was on his head but you know what I mean lol.). He would laugh, smile and be the happy baby I know everyday. He didnt care that yeah he may look different and people were staring. He was being him and that all that matters.

I'm a teen right now and peer pressure to look skinny, have flawless skin, and the newest stuff is always a struggle. So this is why I wanted to write this and have a story to share. I get insecure with myself time to time but I have always been confident with myself too. Sure things affect me and I'm not perfect but I know who I am and what I let affect me and and make my day bad. I dont try to impress people. I like looking cute and have a flawless face because it makes me feel good. So if someone stares at me, talks bad about the way I look. I just try to be like Carter and smile on.

Christmas Makeup

Hey guyss!
So I wanted to do a post on what makeup items I got for xmas! I have got to try these out so I have a little review on them.(;

I first got a duo from benefit of their box powders! These were at Ulta on black friday. These two blushes are no longer being sold so this duo was only $19. One is originally $28! The colors are beautiful. The first color is Georgia! It is light peachy blush. Not to much shimmer. But it smells amazinggg! It really does smell like peaches. Yum!
Next one is Thrrrob. This is a pinky with plum color blush. This does have some shimmer but not a lot to notice it on the face.

I next got two lip products! I first got the Revlon Lip Butter in Strawberry Shortcake. Thanks sissy for buying it for me! The lip butters are so hard to find! They have been the big thing this month and every time I go to a drug store or Target they are always sold out! The color is a like barbie pink color. I usually dab it on my lip so its not so bright.

I next got a MAC lipstick in Creme Cup! Its such a pretty dusty rose pink color. It a everyday color you can wear all the time and I really loveee it.!

XOXOX Madison
