Nars Sheer Glow Foundation (Dry Skin Foundation)



Hey everyone! Today I Want to share with you guys one of my favorite foundations to use for my dry skin. I have combination skin, normal to dry, and it's very difficult for me to wear foundation that doesn't suck the moisture out of my face. I absolutely love this foundation! It gives a nice, semi-dewy/glow finish and leaves my skin feeling hydrated but not oily. Watch for a full review.

Product Review: Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara

Hey everyone! 
Today I am sharing with you guys a new mascara I am trying out. I have been loving this new Maybelline Lash Sensational. It gives me such full and long lashes. I actually have to say I am very impressed with this mascara and it is so much better than my Maybelline Full N' Soft.

TooFaced: Better Than False Lashes Mascara Review

Hey Everyone! Today I want to talk about this new mascara that I recently tried out from Too Faced. It is called "Better Than False Lashes" mascara and it comes with two mascaras (one regular mascara used as a base and top coat and the other is the fiber lash tube). Now I am not too keen on lashes since they are quite tedious and difficult to put on. So I thought, "hey, this seems like a great idea!" To find out whether I liked it or not watch my video down below!


Before I go I just wanted to say that I am so sorry my videos have been a bit sopratic this month. I have been so busy with school and now midterms are coming up. I have also been super sick and have lost my voice due to strep throat so I am sorry that I've been late with videos. I'm really hoping I get better soon. But I do have some really fun videos planned for spring break which is in two weeks! 
If you guys have any suggestions PLEASE let me know in the comments below! 

Hope you all have a wonderful day!

Hey everyone! It's 2015 and I am opening the new year with my very first blogger perk video. I was contacted a few weeks ago by an LA based jewelry and accessories company called Hoops Baby! They specialize in all kinds of accessories that can be used day and night and for all occasions. 
Prices range from under $10 to over $90. 
When they asked me to pick a few pieces I was thrilled to be working with them. 
This week I recieved my package and immedietly filmed my unboxing video because I could not wait to see the products I had so anxiously been awaiting. Expect a more in-depth review in the near future as I style each piece with some of my favorite outfits. For now, I hope you enjoy my try on video.

Hello loves! Today I am bringing to you guys the new Nasty Gal MAC Lipstick collection that recently came out. I am in love with the three lipsticks that are perfect for the winter time. All three are matte finishes and each is perfect for a glammed up look. To see how these lipsticks look and view a demo watch my video down below! Let me know which one is your favorite!


I did want to mention that I am very sorry, but I am postponing my 500 subbie giveaway until I reach 1000. I never thought I would reach 500 so quickly so I did a MAC Lipstick giveaway and now I'm a little tight on my budget. I really hope you guys understand. I do want to give you guys something amazing so that is gonna take a bit of work and effort to come up with. (Not only financially but creatively as well). Hope you guys understand.  I hope you guys are having a wonderful day and I will see you in my next video! Leave me video ideas in the comments below! :)

Day to Night Winter Makeup 2014 (Glam Makeup)

    Hello loves! Wow, I am finally reaching the end of this very painful semester. I love being an English major, but sometimes I wish I could take a breather. It's not easy spitting out three or more papers that each have to be five+ pages. But I will be talking more about that very soon. 
Today I want to talk about my makeup for this Winter season. Last year I did two videos with very different makeup looks (that you can check out here and here). For this year I wanted to make a video that transitioned from Day to Night so it could be easy, simple, and effortless. I think this look is really quick and simple for those of you just starting out to experiement with makeup as well as for more advanced girls. I absolutely love earthy browns and gold for this time of year. It is a bit unexpected and neutral so you can play around with your lipstick shade. I always feel this time of year deserves a night pop of color on the lips. 
I don't add any blush as I love only wearing bronzer, but if you prefer it than go right ahead and add your favorite! I would either go with Fleur Power by MAC or Breath of Plum by MAC as well as they are soft but buildable. My other lipstick choice would be Red Lizard by NARS to have the perfect shade of red. 
Hope you guys like this video and don't forget next week my giveaway will begin! 
I will announce prizes soon!

Product Review: benefit bad gal LASH mascara!

Hello lovelies! I am so happy it is Friday and I can kick back and relax for a bit before the week starts again. This semester is almost over in just a few weeks and I can't wait! It's been a very tough academic year and the transition from my small college to a giant state university has been a bit traumatizing. (I'm over it though lol). I think I will be doing a school series soon enough over the winter break so if anyone has questions for me please leave it down in the comments below! 
Today I am reviewing for you guys one of my favorite mascaras! It is the benefit bad gal LASH mascara! I recently bought it in its travel size form for about fifteen dollars and it was completely worth every penny. I would love it even more if it was waterproof but I believe they have the full bottle version in waterproof. We will see. In this video I will show you a demo and a quick recap of how amazing this product works. It does everything a volumizing mascara should do and more. 
I love it! Which mascara is your favorite?

BTW There will be a few changes going on here at TheFashionQueen so bare with me. 
I will be revealing more exciting things soon like my 500 subbies giveaway!

Guest Post: Rouge's Top 4 Winter Staples!


    Hey there and welcome back to the Fashion Queen Official! This post is part 2 of the collab I’m doing with the Queen herself. I’ve put together a post about my top 4 winter staples.  They are the Eco Tools Pure Complexion Facial Sponge (deep cleansing), Josie Maran Argan Oil, Kate Moss Edition Lipstick (01) and of course EOS Lip Balm in Blueberry Acai. Coupled together these products will make your winter a lot more bearable. Healthy and blemish free skin is your canvas, never forget that! Ever since I bough the facial sponge it has made a difference. The sponge initially comes hardened and then softens with water. I absolutely love it! You start off by applying soap to your skin, then apply water to the sponge and scrub away. It’s made out of very delicate fibers so it’s not abrasive on your skin. It’s great on sensitive and dry skin, thats what I love about it!
Next up we have the Josie Maran Argan Oil. If you haven't already tried it, I really hope after reading this post you will pop into your local Ulta/Sephora and definitely check it out! Argan Oil is pressed from the kernels of the Argan tree, native to Morocco. It can be used on your face or hair. A lot of people who suffer from acne have benefited from using this oil. Personally I have dry skin so I find that this oil is amazing and keeps my hydrated! I like to use it in my nighttime routine. My skin is still very much soft and not dry at all when I wake up. This can also be used as an eye makeup remover. Just dab some onto a cotton ball and swipe. Everything gone in one go, without the burn of hard chemicals. 
Third item on the list is a lipstick from the Kate Moss collection. This is shade 01 and is a great red for all those holiday events. The formula is very nourishing so it won’t dry your lips. Speaking of lips how could one forget to purchase a lip balm for the winter? I picked this up and am in love with it! EOS lip balm in flavor Blueberry Acai, yes I said flavor because after applying it reminds me of blueberry muffins!

I hope you enjoyed this post! Thanks to Claudia for collaborating with me! Always a pleasure. 

xoxo Rouge

Product Review: Tarte Cosmetics: Lights, Camera, LASHES Mascara!

Hey everyone! I know it's been quite a while. Well, school has been very tough for me and I have been swamped with midterms, research papers, and Shakespeare. Upper division classes are no joke people. I think I want to do a college series that will help incoming students get an idea of what college/uni is like from an English major's perspective. Interested? 
Anyway, moving right a long. About two weeks ago now I went to a music festival here in South Florida called Coral Skies. It was the best day EVER! Not only did I spend it with amazing people and was I able to hear amazing music I also got to meet two of my favorite performances/ bands.... Jack Antonoff of bleachers and Cage the Elephant!! I hugged all of the members (omg Matt and Brad Shultz!) and Nick Bockrath gave me his autographed beer bottle, what!
It was the best night ever...
Okay, now we will talk about the real purpose of this video and post. In my Beauty Haul I showed you guys that I had recently purchased the travel sized mascaras from benefit and tarte. Today I will be showing you a demo of the tarte mascara: Lights, Camera, LASHES! It was amazing and elongated my lashes so much with only two coats. I absolutely loved this mascara so much. The travel size is about $15 I believe. It is also very easy to take off the eyes and the brush application is perfect and gets into the small lashes at the corners without staining my lids. 
This mascara gets two thumbs up!

Lipstick: Diva by MAC

Sephora + Mac Haul plus the Giveaway Winners!

Hey everyone! School has been very chaotic ( and I feel like I say this everytime but it is true!) But I do love all my english classes still, though they can be quite hard. Midterms are over and done with and now we are just on the second half of the semester that will most probably fly by.

Also, my sister will be helping me choose the winners for my giveaway so stay tuned till the end. I also added some hilarious bloopers so if you'd like to see more of our crazy side then keep watching! 

BTW I wanted to ask if anyone is interested in the topic of feminism? I feel like it is a hot topic noaways, but a lot of people don't really know what it is or means? If anyone would like a video on my thoughts on that then let me know!

For now, enjoy this weeks video right here!

Marshmallow Challenge!

Hey everyone! How has your week been? I love Wednesdays, it's the middle of the week and you're so much closer to Friday. After today it feels like the days fly by. School has been pretty crazy. I have midterms tomorrow and I can't explain how stressed I am (well, anyone that has been to college knows). But we all must do what we must to get ahead in life. For me that is school. 
But earlier this week I was able to take some time off and film this super fun video with my sister! I had been dying to do another Sister Series video and make it extra fun! So I searched on the internet a bit and decided that I would do a "How Well Do We Know Each other" challenge mixed with a "Chubby Bunny" challenge. For every wrong answer we would have to stuff a marshmallow in our mouths and keep it there. The laughs and unexpected occurences are perfect. Haha! 
I hope you guys like this video and find it just as entertaining and fun. 

BTW If you have yet to enter my MAC Lipstick Giveaway go ahead an enter now! It will be up till October 17, 2014 (this friday!) And I will announce the winner in my next video! Good Luck!

GRWM: One Direction + GIVEAWAY!

Hello! Hello! I am so excited for this post! I have been waiting years to go to a One Direction concert and it finally happened this past Sunday, October 5, 2014! It was such an incredible experience and I loved every moment of it. Unfortunetly I arrived late at the stadium they were performing at because of how many people were going, why didn't I think to leave earlier! That will forever piss me off especially since I missed more than half of the opening act which was 5 Seconds of Summer! The songs I did hear from them were She looks so perfect (omg can you say amazing), Good Girls, and Amnesia (cries, just cries). There was another song but I can't remember the name right now...
Anyway! They were amazing and I'm currently trying to find tickets to their next show which is next year! I am seriously obsessed with them and their alt-rock vibe. 

But then their performance ended and we waited for One Direction to come out (which took an hour, not too bad really). When they finally did they started off with Midnight Memories (one of my favorites). I loved that every few songs they would stop and talk to the audience a bit and just tell us all how much they loved us and how thankful they were for our support. As cheesy as that may seem and sure they might say it to every crowd, they make it seem so special and I ate up every bit of it. 
Now, I'm not sure if any of you know but out of all five boys I am completely obsessed with Niall. His blonde hair and his cute Irish accent have got me swooning. Everytime I get to hear him sing I just get these tiny butterflies in my stomach. I loved that he showcased his voice a lot in the concert (everyone is always saying how his mic never works or that they don't give him a lot to sing, but he really shined in this performance *sigh*). They sang "Little Things" which was beautiful and everyone had their phones out and the crowd looked like a sea of twinkling stars. It was so amazing. I also loved their performance of Happily, Better Than Words (omg hot), and Story Of My Life. They sang so many songs from their previous albums that I was just so hyped up I couldn't believe it. 
I have to say it has been one of my favorite concerts and I can't wait to go again.
Unfortunetly this was their last performance here in the States for the WWA tour, but they'll be back, I know, to promote their new album Four!


Here are some pictures of my outfit and the GRWM video that I made to go along with this special day. ALSO I am doing a giveaway because I wanted to thank everyone who has been supporting me throughout the year. I finally reached 400 subscribers (and passed it!) and I thought the best way to thank you was to giveaway my favorite product and brand a MAC Lipstick! There will be 2 winners, yes 2 winners! And each will be able to decide which shade of lipstick you'd like to recieve from the list of four that I will put down below. You may ask why I am choosing these four? Well, I recently did a MAC Lipstick Favorites for the Fall and wanted to incorporate some of those as well as some that I love for the Winter. It is also a little bit easier for me if I already know what range the lipsticks will be at. If you'd like to win please leave a comment on my youtube video and subscribe. 
I will be choosing the winner October 17, 2014 at 11:59 pm ET. The winner will be announced in my next video on October 21, 2014 (and they will have 48 hours to respond to my message. If they don't then I will choose a new winner). 
This giveaway will be USA only but I promise that I will be doing an international giveaway very soon! I love all of you so much and I want to thank you all! Hope you enjoy the video!

Fall Makeup Tutorial '14

Hey everyone! It's the first day of October! I am so in the mood for cozy sweaters, chunky scarves, and my combat boots! I love this change of weather (even though down here in MIA it's not so noticeable). This time of year I usually travel up to NYC and vacation in the Big Apple which is my favorite place to be at in the fall time. But school is a bit in the way so we will see if that is possible this year. For now I will occupy myself with making Fall inspired videos!
This week I have for you guys my Fall Makup Tutorial which was inspired by the one and only Cara Delevingne! There were two makeup looks that caught my attention. The first was the one below with sultry, cranberry eyes and a nude lip. The second was the following picture with a deep burgundy-red matte lip and a smokey brown eye. I took inspiration from both pictures and fused them together in my final look. 
Now, I used fake lashes in my final look but you all know that that is optional. I also give you two choices for the lips as I know some may not like to go too dark or too drastic. I love the final outcome and hope you do too! Leave me a comment down below with your thoughts?
Enjoy!







My Favorite MAC Lipsticks for the Fall 2014

Hello everyone! Hope everyone is having a wonderful day! 
I have been hard at work filming and editing my videos for you guys trying to come up with the best content possible. I love filming and being able to incorporate my beauty/fashion obsession has been so much fun! I think it's noticeable when someone is doing something they love. You can just see it in their face and hear it in their voice. 
A few weeks ago I unleashed my Mac Lipstick Collection which was so crazy to film, but probably my favorite video ever. This week I am bringing to you my top 6 Mac Lipsticks that I will be wearing for the Fall time this year [2014]. I do have to mention, it was very difficult choosing from my collection. I love them all and don't really follow trends on what is in to wear (same goes with nailpolish and clothes). But for the sake of this video I limited myself to 6 of my favorite fall appropriate colors that I think you guys would like and also aren't the most common choices. Nothing like switching everything up for the new season.
Would you guys like to see my Winter Lipstick choices? 
Leave your answer in the comments below!

BTW I have moved my closet shop to this new store called Vinted
It is amazing and I absolutely love how easy it is to buy and sell. 
Check out my store! I will be posting more items soon :)
Enjoy the video and let me know which lipstick is your favorite for the fall time?

2. Twig - Satin Lipstick

GRWM: First Day Of School '14

Hey everyone! Today I am updating you guys with my Get Ready With Me video where I show you guys what I wore on my First Day of School. But before I do I just want to mention how it went. 
If you guys keep up with my twitter rants then you'll know that I have recently graduated from my college with an Associate's degree in English. I finished in the summer and transfered into my public state university for the fall semester. To be honest it was a very crazy (almost tramatic) experience and I'll tell you why.
I have always been a very shy, introvert kind of person. I keep to my self all the time and don't like change, at all. I was use to going to school just two minutes from where I live. I was use to going to classes with my sister and only having classes in the mornings or afternoons. It was a very chill two years for me. It was a nice transition from being homeschooled to actually going to school. 
But that school (my community college) was nothing compared to my state university. It has ten times more students, a bigger campus, and more difficult classes. Instead of driving only two minutes I now drive twenty-five minutes to get there and another twenty-five to come back, for two days a week. That's 100 minutes or an hour and ten minutes a week. Incredible jump from the ten to fifteen minutes I would spend in a week driving to my community college. 
Maybe this isn't so drastic for other people, but for me it was. Especially since I have anxiety driving. Add on my social anxiety and it is a party twice a week. The rest of the week I'm busy worrying about school and doing homework. Most of the homework I don't even finish (it's mostly reading literature and books, but since I have three english classes it's hard to read everything before the day of. I usually have an hour break and take advantage to catch up on the pages assigned).

But it's not all bad. I love the classes I'm taking which are Medieval Literature, English Grammar, and Shakespeare Histories. All of my professors are extremely nice and understanding. They are available to speak to you and help you understand the material. All three are challenging classes and push you to break away from your comfort zone as a writer and as a being.

So now that I have gone off on my tangent I hope you guys understand me a little bit more throughout the next two years of my life at my new school. Soon it won't be my "new" school haha.
For more updates follow me on twitter via the button at the top of this page.
Hope you enjoy my video and acquire ideas for a makeup look or outfit for school.

Product Review: L'Oreal Miss Manga Mascara

hey everyone! Today I have a product review for you guys. I know, I know, I am always reviewing mascaras. Well you know what? I love long, huge, volumenous lashes. Next mascara I want to try is a higher end one, maybe Too Faced? Any recommendations are appreciated. 
Well, the one I am demo'ing for you all today is the L'Oreal Miss Manga Mascara, the waterproof version in black. As you can see in the video, I absolutely hate the application/brush. What's the point in buying something that is uber goopy and you have to wipe just to use? That makes absolutely no sense to me. Plus I hate when the wand is flexible. 
I do, however, like the way my lashes look after using this mascara. I believe that if I use a bit more product my lashes will look even thicker. 
Hope you guys enjoy the review/first impression and let me know if you have ever tried this product!
