Make Up Forever Aqua Rouge

Sephora $24
Per Sephora:

What it is:
A liquid lip color that provides the intense and long-lasting hold of a lip stain with the eye-catching shine of a gloss.

What it does:
Formulated with a combination of high molecular weight polymers and volatile oils, Aqua Rouge locks color on the lips for a smudge-proof result that will not transfer or fade. Its intensely pigmented formula provides immediate, opaque color with extreme shine, and its creamy, non-sticky texture glides effortlessly on the lips for comfortable wear.

What else you need to know:
Aqua Rouge’s double-ended packaging allows for a simple, two-step application: apply lip color with precision using the ergonomic, foam applicator and evenly distribute the clear top with the polyester brush to lock the color onto the lips. 

Suggested Usage:
-For best results, line and fill in the lips with Aqua Lip. Apply Aqua Rouge color to the center of the lips and blend outward.
-Finish with Aqua Rouge clear top coat for a lacquered effect.


I'm very interested in a lip product that lasts all day without touch ups.  I'm not one to reapply because of my chronic laziness so I am very eager to test this out. Sephora at Memorial City Mall has a set with 6 colors on sale for $98! This set is sold out online and originally costs $140. This is an amazing deal, as the set includes:

Six Full Size Aqua Rouges with coordinating Lip Liners:
1. 16 Fuchsia
2. 18 Coral
3. 2 Rosewood
4. 14 Light Rosewood
5. 10 Raspberry
6. 8 Red

$98 for 12 full size products! That's a steal! If you're thinking about scooping it up, you need to hurry.  It looked like there were only 5 boxes left. They're located at the cash register area, just FYI.

Hate Loubs but...

Ok, seriously hate Loubs... They're totally hot and gorgeous, but they make you want to cut off 2 toes.  I refuse to pay $600+ for something that looks good but I can't wear for more than 20 minutes.  I'll invest in Manolos and Choos which are much more wearable/comfortable and just as pretty on my feet. 

HOWEVER, I may make an exception for these bad boys... Ok, no I won't pay $1,000+ for flats, but they are pretty sick.  I especially LOVE the black ones with multi metal studs.

Loving these for the new year...

Net-a-Porter $215
Love this card holder by Maison Martin Margiela. I love the camel color leather and gold glitter combination.  It holds 6 cards (3 on each side) and one center compartment for bills or more cards.

Maiyet $598 (from $1195)
Ok, yes so I have this new obsession with flat OTK/thigh-high boots. How many pairs is too many? I don't know, but I love that this one has a zipper down the back and gold studs on the 1-inch heel.  I also love that it's 50% off. (FYI this same boot is 60% off on Net-a-Porter, but only size 35.5 is available.)

Net-a-porter $797 (from $1595)
Love this leather/wool combo cape by Burberry. Super cute!

Net-a-Porter $147 (from $295)
MICHAEL by Michael Kors cape. LOVE!

Amore Holiday Gift Sets


I recommend the SulWhaSoo Essentials Value Set! SULWHASOO SMELLS AWESOME! Like Korean herbal medicine... I used to hate that smell, but the older I get, the better it smells... Now I love the smell. LOL... If you pay the $115, you get a 3 piece Shampoo (x2) and Conditioner Set for free! I would totally get it, but I'm trying to cut back on spending money on cosmetics and shoes... LOL We'll see how long that lasts...
