Amrezy... Oh my gosh!

The most amazing thing happened over on our Instagram page this past week. Amrezy, a highly known beauty Instagram'r liked and commented on one of my photos on Exquisite Glow! I had such a fan girl moment and could not believe it. It all started with this quote she posted on her Instagram account, "I love girls who compliment other girls. Too many girls thinking its a competition these days. Its nice to be nice." Naturally I commented saying how it is nice to be nice and that I like to leave compliments on peoples photos because I know how Good it feels to read them when they are given to me. If I can make someone feel good by me saying something nice then why not? It doesn't cost me a dammed thing. The next thing I know I see a comment on my feed saying the "Look the Queen Commented." I brought up the picture and sure enough Amrezy had placed a comment on my picture, "Beautiful." My did so many Cartwheels in my head it was Cray! It made my day and I can't tell you how good it made me feel. I'm sure you can tell that I have not posted much on the blog as of late, and its because I have been going through a hard time and adjusting to recent changes in my career. Right now I am trying to figure out what my plan of action will be for the next few weeks. So understand that this was a much needed burst of happiness for me and I just wanted to share my good feeling. Kindness is the best gift you can give someone so be kind. More comes to people who are kind because they are happy people. Mean and negative people might have luck here and there but whats the point of that if they have all that aggressiveness and tension. That's not happiness. 
So I leave you with my screen shots of the Amazing Instagram Moment I had. I hope you enjoyed this post and took a little something with you from it.

MAC Objects of Affection | Lip Glass Haul



So as you can see we went a tad Cray over this years Holiday Collection at MAC here at Exquisite Glow. Not only did we obsess over the Objects of Affection Collection, we also ventured out to a few other products we've had our eye on and thought this was the time to bite the bullet and splurge. 

We are going to start off with the Lip Glass Sets because they are such an amazing deal we want you to get your pretty manicured hands on them before its too late. We decided to go ahead and get all three of the Lip Glass sets because they carry A LOT of the colors from their permanent collection. So we figure we could not pass this deal up. 

A regular Cremesheen Glass comes with 2.7g/0.09 US oz. and a regular Dazzleglass comes with 1.92g/0.06 US oz each run $20.00 . While in the kit the Cremesheen Glass comes with 2.4g/0.08 US oz. and the Dazzelglass comes with 2.4g/0.08 US oz. each set comes with THREE Cremesheen Glasses and ONE Dazzelglass for $35.00 All colors marked with an (*) are part of the permanent collection. 


  • Stately Shimmer - is a warm peach nude with light peach golden shimmer.
  • Fashion Whim* - is a light beige with a light shimmer. (Shimmer is almost non-existent)
  • Rising Sun* - is a frosted bright orange in the tube but can be applied sheer.
  • Courtly Coral (Dazzelglass) - is a neutral clear gloss with tons of purple and gold reflects of fine sparkle.



  • Paper Lantern* - is a frosted soft warm pink. Kind of translucent but leaves a beautiful finish.
  • Dynasty at Dusk* - is a frosted neutral pink. It is defiantly more opaque and can be worn alone.
  • Deelight* - is a mid tone neutral. I see more mauve in this color and no shimmers.
  • Love Alert* (Dazzelglass) - is a raspberry red with red pearl. The red pearl are micro shimmers, beautiful. 




  • Fashion Scoop* - is a clear pink with micro silver sparkle. 
  • Pagoda* - is a frosted cool pink. 
  • Loud & Lovely* - is a blue pink with no trace of shimmers.
  • Rags to Riches* (Dazzelglass) - is a plum pink with teal & red/pink pearl.
These glosses are great to wear alone or over your lipstick to give it a little extra something. 
Which one is your favorite? Make sure to pick up one of these boxes for your self or as a gift for someone special. You can also buy them and use the glosses as stocking stuffers for multiple friends. We are so excited to play around with these we just can't handle it. 
Make sure to keep an eye out for our upcoming pigment sets post. Those are our favorite! 

Happy Holidays Gorgeous,
