Five Things I'm Currently {Loving}

I've realized that I call this blog of mine Nykki talks {Beauty} - Yet I have been slacking with the Beauty posts lately. Sorry for that; apparently I'm just having fun talking about me.me.me!
You know; I'm obsessed like that. not really. maybe sometimes.
So let's talk about five things that I have been loving lately.

1. Lash Injection {Too Faced}

The only reason I bought this mascara was because it was buy one get one free at Ulta; the truth is, I'm not a huge fan of Too Faced products {besides Lashgasm - i love Lashgasm}. This Mascara is pretty great though; I am definitely loving it; I actually got asked yesterday if I got lash extensions. This Mascara adds crazy length, but I just wish it added thickness and volume. I don't think it does. There are definitely some negatives about this mascara; but I am loving it right now. Full Review? soon.

2. {IMAN} Stick Foundation in Earth 3

You guys may be saying 'HUH?' right now, but I bought this for a very specific purpose. Contouring. I use this underneath my foundation in order to add some darkness where I later add contour/bronzing powder. It lays a great foundation of darkness && I love it! Let me know if your interested in a more detailed write up about this process.

3. {elf} eyebrow kit in Medium
I'm not gonna lie; I just recently started filling in my brows. To be honest; I have never really cared about them before. This is one of those things that I have learned along the way of beauty blogging. One of the reasons why I love blogging so much. I have learned how important this process is. I'm loving this eye brow kit, mostly because it's the only one I know. I am VERY interested to know what you use on your brows; and where I can buy it. I want to try some others. If you have a write up/You Tube video please let me know because I am currently obsessed with the whole eyebrow process. weird I know.

4. {Wet n Wild} blush in Heather Silk
I have mentioned this blush multiple times before including in my Best Beauty Products of 2012 - {here} && {here} to name a couple. I have finally hit pan after quite some time of owning it {as you can tell from the horrible mess it is}. This is a perfect pink blush && I don't think I'll ever stop using it!

5. {MAC} Mineralize Skin Finish in Medium Dark
This is a product that I have really loved since I bought it. of course; I heard great things about it before I bought it && I feel like it's lived up to those great words. I use it over my foundation to perfect everything and add that extra bit of coverage. please don't ask me what happened to it to make that pattern, because I have no idea. I actually tried looking for something that could have done it; but can't find anything. crazy.

That's it; those are five things that I am loving right now. I hope this gives you the beauty fix you needed; I know it sure helped me! I want to start incorporating more reviews in; I am just such a perfectionist they need to be perfect before I will hit submit.
until next time; peace, love, && of course MAKEUP! :) *********************************************************************** Today's Featured Beauty is Luchessa from Beauty Expression by Luchessa

{I asked} If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be && why?

This question seems to be so easy on the first gaze, but it actually is quite multilayered.

There would be so many different events, that i would love to witness, like the Fall of the Berlin Wall, or one of Marie-Antoinette's ball's, the construction the Eiffel Tower, or something as fun and glamorous, as a fashion show with the biggerst supermodels of the 90's: Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington, Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell, Tatjana Patitz, Stephanie Seymour and Claudia Schiffer. How great would that be?! But if i had to pick a very special event, i would go with the day my bestie gave birth to a beautiful baby boy, on the first of february, so he is not even a month old now.

When you know each other for 15 years and something like that big happens, it completelly changes your perspective and makes you revaluate your life a little bit. So the birth of my godchild is a huge event, that i would love to experience again, because it's so dear to my heart!!

Such an interesting thought!

I think it would be pretty cool to go back and be able to attend my parents' wedding :)

They're just as in love now as I imagine they were back then, would be interesting to see the "beginnings" !

That is so funny about the eyebrows because I swear I have become obsessed in the past 2 months too! I never really payed too much attention to mine either. Then I read an article on how they can either make or break your whole makeup look. So I've been slowly trying to create the perfect shape. I really like Wet n Wild's brow kit, it's only $3 or $4 and comes with 2 different color powders and wax, tweezers and a brush.

Oh and thank you again for mentioning me in your share the love post! I think that's a great idea and want to do it either this week or next week :)

How is that mascara for smudging? And where do you buy the Iman cosmetics? I hear about them but I can't recall ever seeing them in a store!!

I've only just started filling in my eyebrows too! I'm very blonde, so I find it helps give them a bit more definition. I use the MUA kit (not sure if it's only available here in the UK) and a bit of clear mascara!
