100% Pure Creamy Long Last Liner In Blackest


Thank you so much 100% Pure for coming out with pencil liners! I guess it took them this long to figure out that some of us gals needed the good ol' fashioned pencil for our eyes. I own the liquid liner which is my absolute FAVORITE item from 100% Pure. I own a lot of their products from the primer, liquid foundation, tinted moisturizer, powder, 10 of their eyeshadows, naked palettes, blues, lip and cheek tints, mascaras, lip cremes, etc.. 


100% Pure Liquid Liner: $25

I ordered the pencil liner because I didn't want to use the liquid liner everyday as it can really make my eyes stand out. I like using it for when I am not at work. I wanted something with a little more control where I make feather like strokes and make a more lighter smoky eye. Also, you can't really use the liquid liner for your brows. =P 


100% Pure Creamy Liner in Blackest: $22 



Unfortunately this liner is quite expensive compared to your drugstore eyeliner which can range from 7 to 10 dollars. BUT! In return for the expense you are acquiring a chemical free eyeliner. Many of the drug store chemicals can be irritating and contain parabens which are cancer causing agents. The ingredients are made from a variety of plant oils, vitamin e oil, and mica which is what gives it the dark color.


This arrived in the mail today! I ordered three of these babies and I'm so excited to try them.

(it cost me a whopping $66 but it's so worth it!)

I personally recommend this eyeliner as it has a smoother and darker texture. I used the Juicebeauty brand below which is $16. It has a lighter and waxier texture. I did not use it for my eyes but for my eyebrows and it did the job. It's also all natural and free from harsh chemicals. It depends on how you like the texture. I personally would spend the extra $6 on the 100% Pure brand.

My Morning Breakfast: Breakfast of Champions


Here is my simple breakfast this morning. I love fruits and vegetables!

I have eggs because of the complete amino acids and B12. Especially B12 since this doesn't exist in plant items so I have to get this through my eggs and fish. These are essential building blocks of new cells for your body.

Raw beets and OJ "smoothie"

Raw tomato. Sauteed collard greens in organic refined coconut oil. Cantaloupe for dessert. :-)

I steer clear of most flour and wheat products. Eating as raw as possible is very important for your body.

What are your favorite breakfast items?
