Beauty find Melt cosmetics review

I have been trying a lot of new brands lately so I thought i would start sharing and doing reviews for them. I recently found a brand new company called Melt cosmetics created by Lora and Dana two beautiful and talented makeup artists .
I ordered one of their lipsticks in the shade of stupid love its a bright fuchsia color.
Love the packaging !


Here's my review 

I love the color its true to the pictures they have on their website its super bright and pretty.
They smell nice which actually has been a problem with a few brands that i have purchased before.
They are matte colors so don't be surprised if they don't glide right on like a regular lipstick.
I would say make sure your lips are moisturized before applying .
Overall I enjoy the lipstick I'll probably be ordering their red which is called belladonna ,because i can never have enough red lipsticks lol
I look forward to seeing more products from them .

Neon Nails and Lips

Lately I have been getting back into playing with more fun makeup and colors .I have have been really drawn to neon colors.
Especially nail polish and lipstick, i seem to be drawn to neon pink even though i'm not a big fan of pink for makeup the neon pink works for me lol .
I have been searching all over the net for essie punchy pink pictured below but it came out in 2009 and I don't think they make it anymore .

I found pink voltage by china glaze i did last week (below) but it took like 5 coats which made it chip off easier . I'm still on the hunt though .

Onto lips! One of my favorite brands i have discovered for lipstick is lime crime.
I have 4 colors already they are amazing they go on smooth and the colors are amazing.
My next purchase is countessa fluorescent  pictured below 

If you're feeling extra bold you can try new yolk city

So what do you think of neons? Any good colors you recommend I'd love to hear your input

Add color to your room the cost effective way

Every interior design book and magazine out there says the best way to add color to a room is to paint neutral wall colors and find bright furniture to add pops of color.
Here is the problem I have found with that affordable furniture stores don't seem to sell colorful furniture its all neutrals. If you can find colorful furniture it will normally run you much more in costs.
So i say throw that idea out the window, go with bright colorful paint!
I'm redoing my new bedroom which has not been taken care of for years so instead of going for colorful headboard and side chairs I'm going with lime green walls . Yes lime green! 





















I found this on pinterest to it's not the direction i'm going with but gives you an idea color wise.
I'm either going to go with black or navy blue accents and also white.
This is a bedroom idea but this also works for living rooms or other rooms in your house.
I'll be painting in a few weeks and can't wait to share when I'm all done . I found wood floors under the carpet so I'm going to rip that up so i can have wood floors in there. I can never imagine why anybody would want to carpet over beautiful hardwood floors!
If you recently have redone a room with color feel free to link me in the comments!
