Plum Dandy Lipstick Swatch

Hello! Today I will show you all MAC's lipstick in "Plum Dandy". I originally got this because I was dying to buy MAC's "oh oh oh" when I saw a swatch online but had been a limited edition product. (It was re-promoted in the Archie Collection!). I know Plum Dandy is a much more purple-toned-pink and not as reddish as oh oh oh but I really liked the color!

Hola! Hoy les quiero mostrar un pintalabios/rouge/labial (como sea que lo llamen!) Se llama "Plum Dandy" y originalmente me lo compre porq me moria por comprarme "oh oh oh" de MAC cuando vi un swatch online pero resulta que era edicion limitada. (Por suerte lo pusieron a la venta otra vez con la Coleccion de Archie!) Plum Dandy no es tan rojizo como oh oh oh pero igual me encanta el color!

 PROS:
  • Not too frosty where you'll look like a cheap Pamela Anderson out of the 90s.
  • Vanilla Scent
  • Sheer but buidable
CONS:
  • Not very smooth
  • Not moisturizing
There isn't a whole lot to say when it comes to the quality of this lipstick, it isn't meant to be moisturizing. However, it also doesn't really dry them out. I would suggest making sure you don't have flaky skin on your lips because this lipstick will enhance it.
 PROS:
  • No tiene mucho "Frost" que vas a parecer una Pamela Anderson barata de los 90.
  • Olor a vainilla
  • No es super pigmentado pero se puede repasar
CONS:
  • No se siente super suave
  • No hidrata los labios
La verdad esq este labial es bastante basico y super lindo. No fue creado para hidratar los labios asi que no tengo quejas! No te los seca un monton tampoco pero si lo vas a usar asegurate de que no tengas pedazitos de piel muerta porq sino se resaltan. 

--- One swipe creates a beautiful metallic rosy/purple colour.

--- Con una pasada queda un color hermoso medio rosadito/morado metalico.
--- With several swipes you can really intensify the purple tones and the metallic.

--- Con varias pasadas se intensifica el tono morado y tambien lo metalico.


I took this photo back in the fall. Currently there is a ton of beautiful snow! I love to walk in the snow! Have a great night/day/etc.

Saque esta foto cuando era otoño. Ahora hay un monton de nieve super linda! Me encanta caminar en la nieve. Espero que tengan un buen dia/noche/etc.

Lilac & the Sunday Blues

From the moment I wake up to the moment I go to sleep I have a horrible feeling that Monday is coming. Does this happen to you? What better way to brighten up a gloomy cold Sunday than with a blog post about a beautiful nail combination!?

Ladies and Gentlemen, today I've got Sally Hansen's "Lacey Lilac" and "Pet My Peacock" from Spoiled. I've used Pet my Peacock before on top of a lovely blue color from Essie, which you can see here.

I had been wanting Essie's Lilacism however, I really wasn't willing to pay the $7-$8 for it. Especially after finding this dupe beaut!
 -----------------------------------------
Del momento que me despierto hasta cuando me voy a dormir tengo un sentimiento terrible que ya viene Lunes! No me gustan los Domingos por esto! Les pasa a ustedes? Yo estaba pensando, que forma mejor de alegrar este Domingo triste que escribir un post sobre una combinacion de esmaltes que me encanta!

Damas y caballeros hoy les presento "Lacey Lilac" de Sally Hansen y"Pet My Peacock" de Spoiled. Ya he usado este esmalte de Spoiled encima de un esmalte azul de Essie que pueden ver aca.

Hace años que quiero Lilacism de Essie pero la verdad esq no quiero pagar $7-$8. Especialmente despues de encontrarme este esmalte super parecido!




Spoiled "Pet My Peacock"- Applying this polish does not cause my hassle. It contains teal green, blue, lavender, and silver hexagonal glitters in a clear base. Perfect for layering atop any nail color of your choice. --- La applicacion de este esmalte no es dificil. Contiene brillitos azules, turquesas, moradas, y color plata. Es perfecto para poner encima de cualquier esmalte.

Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear "Lacey Lilac"- This polish is a thick, creamy, fairly opaque polish which takes two coats for full coverage. It is actually much lighter than appears in my photos. I will try to update these when I use this polish again.  --- Este esmalte es grueso, cremoso, y bastante opaco. Con dos capas es suficiente. En realidad el color es un poco mas claro de lo que aparece en mis fotos. Voy a tratar de subir fotos nuevas de este esmalte cuando lo vuelva a usar.


And here is a photo of mischievious Mr. Frankie who LOVES yogurt but I am forbidden from sharing with him :( 
We hope you have a happy day!

Mister Frankie le fascina el yogurt! Pero me prohibieron darle :( 
Los dos esperamos que tengan un dia muy feliz!
