NARS describes Cheyenne as a lovely pair of metallic sienna and gothic plum. Both colors are gorgeous and either can be worn on the lid alone or paired together. These shadows are very smooth, highly pigmented and blends easily. The orange side is a bit harsh on my skin tone, but with a dark base, it transforms into a lovely coppery shade. On the other hand, the plum shade is phenomenal. I love it to bits!
Nars duos are regularly priced at $33/Php1750 but lucky me, I scored this duo for only $10 last year (together with Wicked) when they were on sale at Sephora. Such a sweet deal! :)

Yes, I will be doing the "Project 5 Pan" which means that I will be on a make up spending ban until I finish five things from my stash (skincare or cosmetics). I'm definite that this will not be an easy project but I am still optimistic about it. I seriously need to do something about my habit of buying unnecessary make up and this will be my first step.
And the five things that I will attempt to use up:
1. Guerlain Parure Pearly White foundation
2. Nars Balancing Toning lotion
3. Nivea Essential Care lip balm
4. Mac Cosmo lipstick
5. Bench Hand Sanitizer in Kiwi and Frost
So girls, wish me luck! And if you choose to join me in this little project, you are all very welcome to. Let me know, ayt?
Until then.
Peace and Love!

Niagara is one of my favorite NARS lipsticks of all time. I've been through multiple tubes of this and I would never get tired of owning one.
Niagara is a beautiful pinkish coral with just the right amount of warmth that brings that instant pop of color. The color is opaque and lasts for long hours on the lips. It is a satin but it goes on smoothly and doesn't dry my lips out. It is a lovely summer shade that I think compliments most skin tones. I highly recommend this lipstick. It's a little bit pricey, but definitely worth every penny imo.

Thoughts? Do you also own this shade? Let me know, ayt? And again, don't forget to join my first giveaway (there will be 5 winners!). Happy Hearts Day! xoxo
Until then.
Peace and Love!

This post will be short and sweet. I just want to share with all of you the fabulous gifts that I received from my sister and my boyfriend. My boyfriend was away for 45 days because he spent his holidays in the US (where my sister lives) and I was really overwhelmed with all the lovely things that they bought for me. In this post, lets stick with the beauty related things that they got for me (minus the ton of lotions and body mists). :)
From my "Ate" (big sister)
