Review: Not Lipstick nor Lip Gloss?

It's the NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream!
It's not entirely "new" but it's pretty new to me (about 2 months) so I'm still excited about it. I want them ALL :) It's like a lipstick cream.
It comes in a tube and doe-foot applicator like lip glosses do, but inside is not gloss, it's a colored cream, so soft and glide so smooth, kind of like whip cream.
When first applied, it will look silky but it dries into a nice matte finish.
One tip I would like to share with you: Before applying, you should moisten your lips with chapstick or something first. I find that without the moisture on your lips, when the cream dries into a matte finish, the lips feel tightened and can look too dry. If you want a glossy finish, you can apply a lip gloss over the lip cream after it dries. I like the matted finish so I don't apply gloss.

Big Day is O V E R!

The big day is finally over! We had a blast at the wedding! There were some things we had to change around at the last minute but with the help of family and friends, we were able to pull it all together. It was definitely a success! We are still waiting for our pictures, but in the meantime, here are a few that friends and family took :)

Let's Get This Party Starrrted!

Wow, I had a great time at my bachelorette party last night!
I did not wear the dress that I posted earlier, I ended up getting a two piece outfit; a pink skirt and a white tank.

Pink & Gold: Bachelorette Party Dress

Heyyy!
So my bachelorette party is this coming Saturday, and my MOH chose the theme colors Pink and Gold. Why? Well those were the colors I originally wanted for my wedding, but Shuavij didn't want the color Pink. Anyways, I found this dress at Forever 21 for $27.80.

Cake Tasting

16 more days!
It's coming by so fast, I'm nervoussssss!
We did cake tasting a couple weeks ago, and I just finalized the order. We're getting a square three-layer tiered cake. We tried different flavors, and decided on Chocolate cake with Chocolate Ganache filling. It was delicious, and we know that not everyone likes Chocolate and I gotta say, those people are crazy! Considering I'm a Chocoholic, lol :) We also ordered a full sheet cake in White just in case. I gotta say, Fondant makes pretty decor but it doesn't taste good at all. It's chewy lol. We decided not to go with it, and did a Buttercream based icing instead. 
Wedding cake is EXPENSIVE!!! Not the cake I ordered but the cake I wanted was going to cost me $650+ just because of the specific decoration I wanted. Crazy huh? I was like, Are you serious?!" But the decoration looks so simple and easy.." But again, who am I to question the work of a professional. Oh well.
