Since starting this blog one of my most viewed blog posts is about how much I love Kat Von D. Everyone wants to know where she buys her clothes, who makes her shoes, where she got her shades… and of course what kind of makeup she wears! Well HER OWN of course! I may not be able to answer all of the above questions but I can tell you that her new makeup line for Sephora is as hot as she is…
Ever wanted to look as glam as Kat Von D? Well here’s your chance…
Sephora has teamed up with Kat Von D, tattoo artist, reality-TV star, and owner of High Voltage Tattoo, to produce this edgy color collection that “exemplifies old-Hollywood glamour with an L.A. vibe. From pin-up perfection to rocker chic, this limited-edition lineup allows you to tap into your bad-girl side and unleash your inner artist.”
Complete the perfect pin-up smoky eye with the ‘Rock n’ Roll Eyeshadow Duo’ for $20, the Autograph Eyeliner in ‘Puro Amor’ or ‘Black Metal Love’ for $16 and that bright red perfect pucker in ‘Hellbent’ for $18… hell top it off with a gloss while your at it ( maybe ‘Rocker’ $18 )
$48 will get you the tool application kit perfect for all makeup application! Don’t forget to check out the Eyeshadow palette’s (I’m feeling ‘Beethoven’) $34 for eight shades!!!
Buy it here at Sephora… Before it’s gone… Did I mention Limited Edition!!!

My opinion is that every girl should own bronzer and every girl should wear bronzer. Whether or not you need a lot of it, or a little, just using it for a simple cheek highlight, or an all over tanned look, bronzer makes a difference. If I get up in the morning and feel like total garbage, don’t feel like getting ready, don’t feel like dressing up or putting on make up, I might put on some sweats and some bronzer…then I’m decent enough to venture out into the public. It basically makes you not look dead! and thats always good right!??
I do believe that there is a difference between good and bad bronzer, and I don’t see a problem with spending a little more for a good one. Yes, there are some decent drugstore bronzers out there but why waste your time trying them all when you can buy a quality product right off the bat. Bad quality products can leave you with the caked on, un-blended, umpaloompa look, and that is one of my biggest pet peeves. Of course there is also a method to applying bronzer correctly so it doesn’t look like brown paint on your face ending at your neck.
My favorite bronzer:

Estee Lauder, Bronze Goddess – Soft Matte Bronzer $29.50
The compact is huge so it will last you a long time. The brush they provide you with is great for bronzing application, it allows for a even coat that can easily blend down the neck or into the cleavage
You definitely get what you pay for with this product. I also have sensitive skin and some times get irritation and redness with bad product, no problems here!
My Beauty Review: A+
Estee Lauder
Other suggestion:
MAC Cosmetics Bronzing Powder $20.00, I like the ‘Refined Golden’ but, there are 5 great tones you can choose from.
MAC
