OOTN: White and Fur Dopeness

I went out last night! It really doesn't happen often but nevertheless....
I really wanted to wear an outfit jumpsuit from www.nastygal.com but there was none left in my size (insert very sad emoji here) 
So I was "forced" to shop on my FAVORITE website www.ASOS.com and I went between these three options
I ordered options one and two! And they came on the day of the event! Now I can say I really wasn't loving the fit of the dress but all in all it worked for what I was trying to accomplish. I paired it with a vintage fur vest, a dope ass Live in Fashion see thru clutch and Zara heels. Only one ring.  Plan and simple but sometimes that work.

My MakeUp Bag: L.A. Girl PRO.conceal


Oh how I have missed blogging! Sorry I know it has been well over a week but your girl has been so busy! I know I know no excuse! But I have some goodies for you! For the past two weeks I picked up a couple of makeup items that I have been obsessing over lately! Come walk with me, talk with me through these dope products! I will dedicate a post to each of the products because they are all STAPLES.

L.A. Girl PRO.conceal
I am an avid YouTube watcher! I follow a lot of makeup artists and women who have a love of a "good beat". I first heard about this concealer maybe a year ago but like I have told you guys numerous times I am faithful to companies and products. I have been using MAC concealer since I can remember. I switch between Mac Pro Longwear, MAC Studio Finish and MAC Mineralize Concealer (my least favorite of the three). At first I watched the YouTube videos regarding the L.A. Girl PRO.conceal and it didn't really pique my interest until I saw the price!!! BABBBBBYYYYYYYYYYY $2.99 per tube! Listen even if this product of GARBAGE it would cost me almost nothing to find out. So I ventured over to the beauty supply store to purchase a couple of shades (of course they didn't have testers available). Ladies and Gents I lie to you not I went to about 5 beauty supply stores and all the lighter shades were sold out! I finally stumbled into a clothing store on Jamaica Avenue who happened to be selling L.A. Girl PRO.conceal. Each tube was about a dollar more. I purchased 3 tubes in the following colors: Creamy Beige, Natural and Classic Ivory. 

I am no makeup artist but I know what I like and I love this product. The consistency reminds me of MAC Pro Longwear concealer. The L.A. Girl Concealer doesn't crease and it goes on really smooth. I am not love the applicator-which happens to be a little brush. I apply my concealer with my hands and blend it with a small kabuki brush so the brush applicator doesn't really do anything for me. A little goes an extremely long way. I am a true fan of a high lied under eye and this product is perfect for that.
