Too Faced Be Merry & Be Bright Review

Be Bright Palette by too faced : you can see I'm wearing my cute bright Bright Eyes eyeshadow here in my review Video! Make sure to check out my channel at ForeverRaquelLove :) 

This was a bundle I bought at Ulta for $45 which is a pretty good deal because its worth $102 I believe... I got a cute bag, huge mascara + a mini trial mascara of anther too faced mascara called the better than sex mascara and of course two awesome makeup palettes with 6 eyeshadows each! One palette has a dark blush and Bronzer while the other has a highlight and a light blush.

Be Merry Palette, I really love the green shade. It's almost like a forest lime green, I just love it.

Active Series Review for their Insoles :)

Hey loves! If you're needing support for your feet! Please go to drscholls.com for a free $3 off coupon on your next purchase for the active series insoles! :) At Target I saw they were $19.99, but I'm sure Walmart will be cheaper. Either way you will pay about $15-$17 for a pair of insoles :) I received my awesome insoles compliments from Influenster for review and testing purposes. You can see me in action with them on my youtube channel at ForeverRaquelLove 

They are so comfy and give me awesome support in my arch area of my feet because my feet are pretty flat. I also really love how girly and manly they are! The colors are very fun and cute. 

This is the support I am talking about. :)

I love that the light blue part is very hard to give your arch a sturdy support system. They're very bouncy when you walk or run so that's a plus. 

Ok loves make sure to watch me in action on my channel! Thank you Influesnter! <3

Jessie James Decker Makeup Tutorial

Here is my take on Jessie James Decker's signature look. 

She loves her bold eyebrows and lips! So you gotta make sure to get those two down for sure! You also cannot get away with her look if you're not doing a nice cat eye look with eyeliner! The thicker the better! :) 

Let me just say that oh honey, lip liner is harder for me than my eyeliner! Lol I'm still working on getting it down faster and without messing up so many times. Enjoy this beautiful photo of my beautifully lined lips because it took me a good minute. 

I use my iPhone to take my own pics, sorry for the lighting. 

And that's my take! Make sure to go watch my tutorial on my YouTube channel.  www.youtube.com/ForeverRaquelLove 

God bless you beautiful! Today! Tomorrow and forever. <3

Naked Palette Review & Wetnwild Thoughts

So I finally Have a Review up on my channel for y'all to go check out! Thank you for watching it :) I recommend this palette only if you have an extra $50 laying around along with some TAX! If not, then do yourself a favor and go to bhcosmetics.com or coastalscents.com and get yourself some real amazing great $10 palettes! 

If you're wondering~ wow! That's a beautiful look! Thank you! One eye is using my Naked Palette and the other is using my wetnwild eyeshadow palettes. The Naked eyeshadows are a lot more flaky and have a ton of fall out~ hence having to lead you to purchase a primer ... But the wetnwild are a lot more smoother and don't have that much fall out, you also don't get a bunch of glitter effect with wetnwild. I really love glitter and sparkle, but if that's not for you, then I would stick with the wetnwild. 

Looking at this picture from your point of view~ My left eye is Naked and my right eye is wetnwild. 

I'm honestly not impressed or love the whole concept of the names of the eyeshadows, but the shadows themselves are beautiful :) 

God Bless and Thank You for Stopping by on my blog. 

Matte Makeup Tutorial

Hey loves! Just wanted to let you know that I posted a video on my channel. A few subscribers requested me to do a matte makeup look and it's finally here!

The Only Two Shades you're going to need are from this Naked Palette (the first one). 

All you need is to take Naked and apply it over your eyelid and a little over your crease to get an even base. After you have done that, take Buck and apply it over your crease and outer corner of your eyes. Then just simply blend with a blending brush from Target or Walmart by E.l.f. Cosmetics. They're only $1.  

Here are some still picture shots of my video I filmed for this easy beautiful matte look! :) This look is perfect for every day, school makeup, job interview makeup , church makeup and anyone who doesn't like shimmer or glittery eyeshadows. 

You can still look natural and beautiful inside and out with this look. You don't necessarily need to have the Naked Palette, you can purchase the matte bh cosmetics palette and it's no more than like $10 which is amazing! 

You can choose to use a matte lipstick or keep it more youthful with a gloss. I hope y'all enjoy it and like my video! Make sure to Subscribe to my Channel on YouTube! #foreverraquellove You can watch my full on face makeup process for a matte look.

Rimmel London ScandalEyes Mascara

I would love to take a moment to let you know how marvelous and amazing this awesome mascara is! Yes, yes, yes! I know it is on the pricy side $$$ for drugstore but I PROMISE those $8-9 are worth it! I myself debated in the isle whether to purchase it or not even with my $1.00 off coupon! I'm a bargain shopper so it was a big risk for me!

I seriously didn't even have to curl my lashes after using this amazing miracle worker! Look at my lashes!!! Look at those eyes!!! Tell me it wasn't worth the $$$?!! Right?!!! 

I have big eyes! Womp! Womp! Wooooommmmp! No secret about that! Not only do I have big eyes, I have a strong stare/look too! It may look like I'm mad or like I'm looking into your soul, I probably am! J/k I'm just like that! I have big eyes! But can we get over them and take a look at my lashes? Have you ever seen length and volume like that? Yes! Ok maybe yeah, but still this mascara rocks! so make sure you get it ASAP Lol I also love my they're real mascara by benefit. 

This one is definitely on the splurge side, you can get it I believe at Sephora or Ulta and the mascara is lovely! You can definitely never go wrong with it! You can check it out in action on my YouTube channel at ForeverRaquelLove. I used this mascara in my back to school makeup video. So if you can't afford this benefit mascara just spend the $8 on this awesome mascara. 

God bless,

Love, 

Raquel 

*Ice Cream*Beach*Summer2013

My Favorite ice cream of all time~ Is from Rite Aid! It's affordable! Delicious! Room temperature like I like to say because its soft and yummy in your mouth! My favorite flavors are Butter Pecan, Pistachio, Chocolate Malted Crunch and Mocha Almond. Of course I love most of their other variety of flavors, but these are by far my faves and the ones I always go back for! This is the pic I took yesterday of my yummy ice cream. I always ask for it in a cup with a spoon and cone on top. 

We got our yummy ice cream after taking a nice drive on the beach! :) this is the closest anyone will ever get to driving by the beach! At one point, the water even comes up to the rocks and street area. :) Take a look at that guy stretching before heading out into the water! :) 

Here is the night time pic of driving by the same area, it's nice but at the same time scary because it looks and sounds like the waves are going to come over you. 

This is my cutie princess eating her cute little mini ice cream cone drumstick. Let me know what your favorite ice cream picks are, I might have to go try them out.
