A Wear Lace Swing Top

Let's just say I have been a bit crazy with the lace and peter pan collar lately. I was browsing the clearance section of asos.com and came upon this lace top with a subtle peter pan collar. The material and style of this piece just gave such a nice feminine and classy feel and definitely made me feel pretty. 

The material of the top is very delicate which made snagging a problem but is is hardly to noticeable due to holes already in the lace detail. The lace is not the poorly made lace usually from cheaper tops but has a lot of detail and pattern. I usually pair this with a Madewell perfect racerback tank which is the perfect outline for the this top. You may also pair with a lace bralette, but I tend to be more on the conservative side. 

Verdict: Take it

Color: Only in Navy

Price: $15.19

Size: US 4 (5'4", 115 lbs, 25" waist)

Express: Zip Back Peplum Top

I have been a little late on the peplum trend. I was never able to find one that did not make me look fat or flared out in the right way. A lot of the peplum tops were very short and cut very funny. I ventured into express the other day, browsing their semi-annual sale, and came upon this top  which immediately intrigued me with its light yellow color. I am a sucker for happy colors.

The top had a nice ponte material and was thick enough that a nude bra would not show which is another problem with tops now a days and their see through material. The top definitely will not lose its shape even sleeping in it which I did when I was too lazy to change. All in all, this top is definitely a "take it" item. I decided to purchase the white one also because I liked it so much. 

Verdict: Take it

Color: Yellow, White, Black, Blue, Red

Current Price: $14.99

Size: S (5'4", 115 lbs, 25" waist)

Diorskin Forever Compact Flawless Perfection Fusion Wear Makeup SPF 25 Review

Price: $49

Size: 0.35 oz

Rating: 1/5

This week I tried the Diorskin Forever Compact Flawless Perfection Fusion Wear Makeup SPF 25 in Medium Beige. I liked the fact that this foundation has a built in spf which is perfect for my lazy days (usually always) when I skip applying sunscreen because of the hate of the smell and the oily feeling I get when applied. 

I had such high expectations with this foundation due to the fact that it was Dior but this did not sit right with my skin. It applied very patchy and did not meld into the skin like my MAKE UP FOR EVER Duo Mat Powder Foundation. The makeup accentuated dry patches that I did not realize I even had Also the color match was a little off for my medium yellow skin tone. The colors were more on the neutral to pink undertone range.

Overall, this foundation did not work for me and with the price tag, I was expecting something fantastic which Dior did not deliver this time. 

Korres Wild Rose Mineral Setting Powder Review

Price: $18

Size: 0.29 oz

Rating: 4/5

I recently found the Korres Wild Rose Mineral Setting Powder at my local TJ Maxx and decided to try it because I have never tried any Korres products. I originally thought this setting powder was like any translucent powder that would mattify my face but this one was a little different.

This powder is meant to control the shine on your face but also give you a luminous glow. There are finely milled glitter that gives the face a sparkly affect but does not make your face look greasy which tends to be a problem for my combination oily skin. When blended into the skin, you will not be able to notice the individual specks of glitter.

Overall, this product does what it is suppose to but also gives you a nice highlight counteracts the overly white face you may get when applying translucent powder.
