This year went by so fast and I can only thank everyone that supported me. I'm so thankful for the amount of love and kindness, you guys have shown me... I am not one to care about statistics, but I gathered my top five most popular posts from 2015 and decided to add my personal five favorites as well. First of all, let's...
For this New Years Eve, I wanted to do something festive but still wearable. I used grey and silver on my lid and a bronze shade on my lower lash line. For the lips I went with a nude lip combo. This is super easy and quick to recreate, perfect for beginners and hooded eyes. For more makeup inspiration make sure to follow...
I've always had trouble finding a powder to contour due to how pale I am. Usually, they turn out to be very warm toned, even when they originally look cool toned in the pan. I've heard many amazing things on this contour palette, so I decided to get it. I truly appreciate this beautiful matte black packaging. It's made of sturdy cardboard, so...

If you go back to my older posts, you will notice how different my pictures looked like. I'm not saying I'm happy with every single photo I post, but nowadays, most of them make me feel quite proud of how much I learned and improved. Having a good camera, definitely helps, but I strongly believe the key is editing. A lot of people...
No exaggeration, I've wanted to buy this lipstick for two years. For some reason, I would always choose another one instead. But I'm so glad I finally decided to purchase this product. Kinda Sexy is described as a "neutral pinky rose". I agree partially with it, as I see a lot of peach in it as well. This is highly pigmented and it...
I usually gravitate towards brownish/mauve colors, but I've been obsessed with light nude lipsticks. So I took advantage of Black Friday to get some gorgeous peachy shades. Honeylove is described as a "light beige tone with rose", which I consider very accurate. This is definitely the most creamy and moisturizing matte lipstick, from MAC, that I own. The formula is fairly different from...
As a beauty junkie, I love buying and getting makeup for Christmas, or any time of the year. Here are some of my favorite high end products, that I think would be incredible gifts. As a matter of fact, a few of these I received last year on the Holidays. One of my newest items, which I'm super excited about, is the Kat...
If you're new to makeup, you might not see a reason to spend so much money on translucent powders. After all, they don't add any extra coverage to your face. However, they're one of the best powders to set your under eye concealer and prevent it from creasing. This is quite a fine powder and it feels just like silk. It gives a...
This look is quite dramatic and I know not everyone would wear it for the Holidays or any time of the year. However, a lot of people seemed to love it on my Instagram (@fernandaxbritto), therefore I decided to post a quick and easy tutorial for beginners or anyone that loves editorial makeup. I did a simple cut crease, and instead of going...
This is one of the most exciting products for me in a long time. If I had to choose my favorite thing about makeup, it would be highlighters. I've seen many people going crazy for this product, so I had to get it. Unfortunately, this is limited edition and I have no idea if they will restock it. Oh, Darling is described as...
First of all, I want to apologize for being absent for one week. I just needed some time to reflect and collect my thoughts so I could move forward. Basically, all I wanted to say is I'm back at posting twice a week. Now let's be honest, at times, we all feel like there is nothing to post about. Having that in mind,...
I had such a hard time trying to decide if I should buy the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer or repurchase the MAC Pro Longwear. So I filmed this comparison between them. Both of these concealers are full coverage and perfect for dark circles / under-eye. They can also be used to spot conceal, such as pimples, blemishes, scars... ...
It's been such a long time since I've had some favorites to share. This past month I got new things and also, rediscovered my love for a few older products. MAC Soft Ochre Paint Pot - Every time I do my makeup, I use this primer. I've always liked it, but I used to alternate. However, lately I've been picking this up without...
Since I usually do a lot of warm toned looks, I felt that I needed to film a cool toned makeup tutorial for a change. I recently got this beautiful lipstick from MAC called Stone, and I’ve been wearing it nonstop. This is super easy and quick to recreate and of course, you don’t need to have the exact same products I used....
Are you guys tired of reading my reviews of the new MAC matte lipsticks already?! I promise, this is the last one. Like I mentioned in my previous posts on the lipsticks Whirl and Antique Velvet, these new shades are here to stay. They are a part of the regular collection, so if you want any of them, you will always be able...
I've been looking for the perfect brown lipstick for a while. I even bought a few, but none were worth talking about, except this one. Antique Velvet is actually a part of the new matte collection and don't worry, they are not limited edition. At first glance, this seems very similar to Sin, also by MAC. However, the moment I swatched both of...
I really wanted to share some of my favorite affordable products from the drugstore. All of them are my essentials. These are perfect for beginners or anyone that wants to expand their collection. Products: Nivea Men Sensitive After Shave Balm Maybelline BB Cream / BB Cream Oil Control Revlon Peach Glow Highlighting Palette Maybelline Dream Mousse Blush in Pink Frosting Sleek Makeup Blush...
The moment I read that MAC was releasing a new collection of matte lipsticks, I knew I had to get some of them. I've always been a fan of Whirl lip pencil, so purchasing the lipstick was a must. By the way, all of these new lipsticks are now a part of the regular collection. Whirl is described as a "dirty rose" and...
In my opinion, the most important makeup item is concealer. No matter how sheer your foundation is, if you have a full coverage concealer you can cover any flaw. For today's "smackdown", I have my three favorite high end correctors. By the way, I will be doing a little "series" here on my blog called Best Of and I will share a certain...
Even though I post some really bold beauty tutorials, that doesn't mean that on a daily basis I wear a lot of makeup. I like to keep my skin looking like skin. There are a few products that I carry in my makeup bag and I know I can always count on them to simply enhance my features. Instead of going for a...
It's been a little over a year since I started blogging and looking back makes me appreciate how much I learned and improved. A fact about me, I actually had a blog with some friends when I was thirteen. However, all of them gave up on it, consequently I did the same. Every so often, I wish I had kept going and not...
I don't normally wear white eyeliner, but this makeup instantly became my go-to/everyday look. Even though, I used a pigmented gold eyeshadow, this is actually quite "natural" and wearable on a daily basis (at least for me). I mixed two eyeshadows to create the perfect peach tone I was looking for. Finally, for the mauve lip, I went with a mix of my...
