Shine Out Loud - Butter London

I've been a fan of Butter London nail polishes for several years! My nail polish wall pretty much speaks for itself!  I was stoked when i learned that Butter London was expanding their line with makeup.  All i can say is, if you already love their nail polish, you will absolutely fall madly in love with their new products, particularly the lippies!  One of my favorite looks is a fierce cat eye and a bold lip.  The products I'm showing you today will help achieve this statement look with ease.  First lets chat eyes... Butter London's Wink Eye Pencil in Union Jack Black (btw i have the nail polish in Union Jack Black and it's hands down my favorite black polish) is a classic black eye liner that glides on beautifully for a flawless finish.  You can tightline the lash line or create a bold effect wearing this intense black beauty! Toss in some major lashes with Iconoclast Mega Volume Lacquer Mascara! This beauty promises 300% increase in volume with one coat, boosting lashes with the double feature, molded mascara brush.

Now for my favorite part... the bold lips!  Honestly, the Bloody Brilliant Lip Crayon in Ladybird was the true standout in this collection!  This highly pigmented color intense shine gloss is the perfect match for my lips.  The color is a bold reddish orange and the formula leaves my lips feeling hydrated and soft which i love.  I also love the wearability on this beauty!  It will easily last a few hours on your lips!  I highly recommend this lippie to everybody and anybody because i simply couldn't imagine anyone not loving the heck out of it!

Love matching your lipstick to your nails? Of course you do!  You'll want to reach for Butter London's Trend Nail Lacquer in Ladybird.  This color will make quite a statement!  I love that it's a perfect red for spring and summer!  It's warm enough that it's totally wearable for this time of year! You will most certainly see me rocking this beauty on my fingers and toes this summer!

Check out Butter London's line of makeup and nail lacquers!  I'm loving everything i've tried thus far and will definitely be adding more to my collection!

Accidentally Organized!

So a few weeks back, my make-up train case broke!  Uhh don't you hate it when that happens?  Well, i immediately ordered a new one, and in typical Carla fashion, i failed to check the measurements assuming it was the same as the one i currently owned.  Well, i was wrong!  When it arrived, i knew immediately there was no way this make-up obsessed girl would fit all of her beloved make-up in this new case.  Needless to say i was not a happy camper!  So, i promptly ordered another, this time making sure to purchase the correct one.  But what would i do with this one?  I mean, i certainly didn't feel like shipping it back.  And then it clicked!  This would make a great case for organizing my nail polish collection, which until now, had been residing in a large rectangular plastic container... hardly a pretty home for my gorgeous polish collection!  Turned out to be indeed!  I love how when i open it now, i can see every single color perfectly making it easier to decide on a selection based on my mood.  Key word being "easier" not "easy" by any means since there are so many choices!  But you've heard me say it before, I'm obsessed with nail polish yada yada, so as you can see, i wasn't kidding!  Only thing is, i can't fit much more in this case which can be problematic for future purchases!  Hmmm  As for my manicure supplies, i keep those in a really pretty fabric bag that i found at Home Goods... couldn't fit it all in this one.  I bet if i had the large train case specifically for this purpose, I'd fit it all in there... ok ok, this will have to do for now!  So here are some pictures.  Hopefully, i will inspire some of my nail polish junkie friends to organize their collections as well. 

So when you open the case, it opens up into three tiers on both sides.  My thought was to separate each tier by brand.  Each brand, i tried to separate by shade. 

Getting a picture of the entire open case was quite challenging lol
