The BET Awards : Fashion, Style & Beauty

My Rating : 3 Stars


My Thoughts:
So I watched the 2012 BET AWARDS yesterday and i must say all the looks were not a hits for me as far as fashion goes but the makeup seem to be right on point. The awards was ok not much excitement to me. The opening was not so grand ... I mean Big Sean was the opening but the performance was so simple to me. I loved Usher's performance his voice sounded amazing , Chris Brown performance was short and  just left me wanting more! The tribute to our falling beauty Whitney Houston was beautiful. Monica blew me away with her voice and style and Brandy brought the live. I also loved the tribute to Maze!!!

Here are some of my favorite and not so favorite fashion looks as well as beauty looks from the red carpet!

Products I Love ...

So im always picking up makeup here and there no matter where i go. If a store has a makeup section thats where im heading. Recently i picked up some lipgloss and a liquid eyeliner. No i wasnt looking for these products i just so happen to pick them up hints "my beauty addiction" lol . NYC New York Color makeup has become one of my favorite makeup brands. The quality is great for a cheap price. I love finding deals and good quality for cheap is all me. I bought the Liquid Lipshine in  Fashion Avenue Fuchsia and Nude York City. This lipgloss is amazing and i absolutely love it! I love the fact that its not sticky and you dont have to reapply so many times through out the day. It also consist of Vitamin E which provides not only the moisturizing feel but the shine too!! I also bought The Liquid Eyeliner in black . The eyeliner is fast drying and smudge resistant. Those are the main two things i look for when shopping for a eyeliner and for me these two things are what makes a eyeliner PERFECT . It makes the perfect line and its a high precision applicator. The color is strong and dark and dermatologist tested!

What Makes This LipGloss Perfect : 

Pure Pigments , 3D effect shine

Moisture 

Creamy and soft texture

Non-sticky

Vitamin E formula 

What Makes This Eyeliner Perfect:

Deep and strong color 

Perfect line, high - percision applicator

Fast-Drying, smudge resistant formula

Dermatologist tested

With skin conditioning ingredients 

Easy Removal 

Stars New LOOKS

So we all know Ester Dean from her hit "Drop it Low" featuring the amazing , sexy and talented Chris Brown. Her look was young and fresh when she first came on the scene but now Ms. Dean has a whole new look. Rocking a new hair color as well as a new cut. Her look now is simple but chic and i love it. Go on girl and get your Grown and Sexy on !!!

Smokey Eye Junkie

Well ladies we all love the smokey eye and honestly i dont think it will ever go out of style. The smokey eye can work for any and everybody. I love this look because its so many ways the smokey look can be accomplished. I have my day smokey eye and my evening smokey eye which is more dramatic. The smokey eye is use to focus on the sharpness of the eye. This look automatically brings all attention to your eyes. The smokey look can open your eyes depending on how you apply it and when doing this look it is not recommended to wear a bold lipstick but to me if your going out for the evening its nothing wrong with a little red lip.Ive found different smokey eye looks so that you ladies can see what look works for you!!!
