Lumiere Cosmetics Review



I was sent some eyeshadows,blush and face powder to review from a company called "Lumiere Cosmetics". They are mineral makeup and I was excited to try it out. Let me just say, I was nervous that it wasnt going to be that great but decided to give an honest review and try it out anyways.I was BLOWN away. These colors are all amazing and GORGEOUS! So I decided that I needed to get the word out and share them (swatches and pics) with you! I tried all of it on and I was amazed that the eyeshadows were so sparkly and stayed on so well. The blush matched perfectly for me and in all honesty, I am glad I tried these! Here are the eyeshadows I tried as well as swatches: Keep in mind, I did not alter these pictures in any way...These colors are all showed in their true light:


from left to right : Light plum, Dirty blonde and Expresso


The Above Gorgeous chocolate brown has beautiful gold reflects in it. This HAS to be one of my favorite eyeshadows to date. Beautiful for fall! The name of this one is "EXPRESSO". You Barely need any on application because this one is truly pigmented but shows of the reflects beautifully!

This neutral beige-y color called "Dirty Blonde" is almost a perfect dupe for Macs "Omega" I am going to recommend this one for work, the pinup eye look as well as if you just prefer a neutral eye.

This is a BEAUTIFUL Plum color that also has gold reflects in it. This is also a must have for fall! This one is called "Light Plum" This one is also pigmented so you dont need much but is gorgeous when applied as a crease color!


From Left to Right here are some swatches of:
Light Plum, Dirty Blonde and Expresso!


I definitely recommend these eyeshadows. They are gorgeous in pictures but more beautiful in person. The pictures dont do justice!

As I stated earlier I was also sent blush and Face powder! Here are the swatches/Pics of those as well!!!





The above blush is called "Clay". It is a Salmon /coral pink. Its a lovely color for the summer and you definitely don't need much application for it is really pigmented!





If you want something softer, this is "Sweet Cherub". BEAUTIFUL! It is a pale/light frosty pink with gold reflects. it is a shimmer and reminds me of the MAC MSFs. This one is perfect for fall and summer as it gives a slight frosty glow!

Here is a swatch that is also unaltered to show you true representation! From left to right is sweet cherub, then Clay!



The last two things I was sent was Facial powders. A cashmere and a luminesse. These were also very well made. Coverage was light/medium and I was also fond of these two. I am currently fair/light so they sent me those. Here are swatches!

The above is the "Light/Medium Beige

This one is Light/Medium Neutral

I didnt do swatches of these because, well they pretty much blended into my skin so you couldnt see them! They did work very well for me so I also recommend those as well!

Check out Lumiere Cosmetics on twitter as well as the website. Amazing colors, beautiful Application and I am very impressed! I will be doing a yt video wearing ALL of the above products sent and talk about them there as well! Hope you enjoyed my first review!

Worry wart


It's been awhile since I have last updated this thing...So, HELLO again :D

I am 19 weeks today and feel very stressed out right now. So many things to do-so little time!
First and foremost, I cannot stop stressing out about the babies. I am worried every single day, hoping both of them are ok. I don't feel them move very much, just every so often. Then I keep hearing of the "vanishing twin syndrome". I swear that keeps coming up in my life. I don't want to think about that. I know at this stage-it's highly unlikely, but still with multiple pregnancies, ANYTHING can go wrong. I could lose one at any time. This has me constantly stressed out and worried. No parent wants anything to be wrong with their unborn child.So I am impatiently awaiting my ultrasound. They'll not only tell me the sexes, but make sure all the anatomy and stuff is right etc...Which is only 9 days away!

Secondly, We need a miracle. We need a new bigger house ASAP! I think we might've found one, But I'm hoping it becomes ours. A 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom bi level house would be much better than a 2 bdroom 1 bathroom house for a family of 6. 6! Ugh, i feel weird saying that. I don't even believe it. I don't think that will set in until ...well until I am done and I see them for myself. I feel happy but scared to DEATH about twins. Everyone is excited for me it seems. It's easier to say they're excited for me because they aren't the ones with two toddlers already. That probably sounded bitchy, but i meant that in the nicest way. It's just how i feel. I feel happy and excited but Im also in a state of euphoria in a sense because I don't believe it and I cant even imagine my life with 4 kids. Not to mention I feel like I'll have no help. My father is too weak to watch my girls at all, so I wont have their help when the babies come. My husbands mother has her hands full already so I hate asking or expecting help from her as well...I guess it'll just be me, jared (when he isn't working) and...my oldest daughter kayleigh. She happens to be so excited for babies and I know she'll do well. But, I will lose all sanity for awhile...That's one of the other things Im stressed out about...I cant even think straight about it.

Call me a worry wart, because I have been...
I shouldn't be because it's not healthy...But until I hold those little stinkers in my arms, have a new house, and have awesome helpers...then I will be stressed out. I just hope everything falls into place for us.

I'll try and update soon!!!

A bit of a surprise


I figured I am not going to block this blog. It was intentionally made for the purpose of letting whoever was interested, to read it. So it will stay.
After being called crazy for exposing JUST AN INCH of my heart on my last blog, I decided to stay off for a bit. I have a family to care for and I wanted to stay out of the drama that finds me for being opinionated. Yes, I get it a lot because I feel I need to say the things that are on my mind. why not? If anything, i feel people would appreciate me for at least being real and honest.

back on track now.

I came across quite the crazy surprise friday when I went in for an ultrasound. Not only did I find out that I was not as far along as they thought, they also found 2...YES 2 babies in my stomach! I have never been so shocked in my entire life. To say I was calm is an understatement. I was far from. I was anxiety ridden,sweating, and just in complete shock at the fact that
A) OMG there were 2 in there!
B) I was only 24
c) I was unaware that it was even remotely possible when twins don't even run in my family.

WOW. Yes, I was nervous to have 1 more to add to the mix, but 2? How in the world am I going to do this?
Then I started thinking and told myself that I should be glad that I have experience in taking care of children (my own) rather than not having any at all and having twins as a first pregnancy.Now I have to stop researching everything on fricken google because have the crap I read I really SHOULDNT have and now I'm paranoid. I have no idea what to expect of a multiple pregnancy...none. So i figured with that said, I will write my interesting journey in this! For you all to enjoy (hopefully) .

So here is a little tidbit about my progression so far!!!

My morning sickness was THE WORST I HAVE EVER HAD!!!
-I had 24/7 nausea and puked every single morning...every. This lasted well...well longer than a month.
Luckily it is gone now, although I cannot eat oranges, apples or drink things like orange juice..otherwise I will throw it back up.:/

- My boobs were normal for quite a while then BAM I woke up with bigger boobies. Which i dont mind since I dont have enough to begin with,but these suckers are sore by the end of the day. I just want to go everywhere NOT wearing a bra.This would be bad though..so i'll refrain.

- Im borderline crazy with these hormonal episodes. I cry over everything and anything. Its sad really. I cant even watch a reality show without tearing up at least once. Thank you jessica simpson...

- Ive only gained 4-5 lbs but really popped out overnight. Its crazy. I already look like Im 5 months...I feel huge! I haven't seen nothing yet though. Here we goooooo...


and that is some of my...well my TMI news lol
like i said, its quite the surprise, but I am excited. Well, more so nervous and excited. If you guys can help me out by praying for me and the lil ones within that would be wonderful seeing as I don't know what the heck is going on....lol

<3 Thank you and Ill blog again soon. Now, its bedtime.
