Haul; Mostly Highend Makeup

Hey,

Lately I have done a bit of shopping, I made an order from Mac, Sephora, and Urban Decay. I also picked up a few things from Wal Mart. Starting with Mac I just got two eye shadows in Gesso and Antiqued. Gesso is a matte white and Antiqued is a shimmer bronze shade,


Then I ordered from Urban Decay, when I order from a brands site instead of Sephora I only buy items that are either on sale or exclusively sold on their site. The three items I got are on sale and should still be on the site. I got two cream blushers in Greedy which sheers out to be a nice berry and Quickie which gives the most beautiful pinkish peach glow. I also got the Deluxe Shadow palette.



From Sephora I bought a Stila Lip Glaze Trio, the colors are Peach Blossom, Pink Orchid, and Lilac. I also got the Becca Beach Tint Duo, this is a brand I haven't seen or heard much about or even tried till now, I really like these though they are really pigmented and gorgeous colors. It's one of those products that a little goes a long way. The colors are Watermelon and Fig, Fig is nude and Watermelon is mid tone pink.


The next thing I got was the Stila Trio in Warm, I love Stila eyes shadow and these are such a great deal, the colors are Brulee, Sorbet and Truffle. Brulee is a matte cream, Sorbet is a shimmery peach and Truffle is a bronze shade. All of these are on the light side but can give enough dimension without having to add in more colors.


 In my opinion the most exciting thing I bought in this haul the Nars And God Created the Women, this is my first Nars product and this palette is absolutely gorgeous, it is very small but still very nice. The colors in this palette are Alhambra, Bellisima, Kalahari, Galapagos, Coconut Grove, and Night Clubbing


 From Wal Mart I got a Covergirl Lip Perfection Jumbo Gloss Balm in Watermelon Twist, I'm a little late on picking one of these up as usual. I got another Maybelline Color Tattoo this one is in Inked Pink, this looks so beautiful with Scratch from the previously mentioned Urban Decay palette. Lastly I bought another Covergirl product I got the Flamed Out mascara in Very Black Blaze this one is also water resistant, I'm going to review this in a week or two.


Have you tried any of these?

Collective Haul

Hey,

I'm not going to waste any time and just jump right into these products because there is quite a few so lets start with my favorite lipstick! I also want to add I haven't tried many of these most were bought today.

 
From left to right: Revlons 012 Sky Pink and 668 Primrose, Rimmel 110, 111 Kiss of Life, and 17 and lastly Maybelline from the Vivids in Shocking Coral, as you probably know I love Rimmel lipsticks and I'm getting pretty close to having all of the red ones, I'm patiently waiting for the Apcolips lipglosses to come to the US but I have a feeling from what I have hear about those they will be like the Kate lipsticks and I will feel the need to get them all, does anyone know when they are coming to the US?
 
 
From left to right: 110(swatched twice), 111 Kiss of Life, 17, Sky Pink, Primrose

 
From left to right: Red Dynamite, Spice (both not mentioned yet but next), Shocking Coral and 110 again.
 
 
Rimmel Scandaleyes Kohl pencil liner in Nude, Lasting Finish lip liners in 021 Red Dynamite, I thought that I got a different color but you can never have enough reds and 011 Spice, I love these liners I haven't used these specific colors yet but all three are fantastic!
 
 
What kind of haul would this be without nail polish! From left to right: Maybelline Color Show in Orange Fix, Rimmel 60 seconds in 710 Sunny Days, 220 Sage All the Rage, and 311 Caramel Cupcake, Sally Hanson Complete Salon Manicure in 250 Mudslide and 290 Commander in Chic, even though it's summer I have been loving and by that I mean obsessing over nudes lately, especially ones leaning on the taupe side.
 
 
Salon Perfect Lashes in Demi Wispies, these are gorgeous I wore them for my graduation and they looked amazing without any mascara! Revlon Clear Precision Lash Adhesive, I like this but I don't think its as great as everyone makes it out to be, maybe it was just the way  used it but it did last the whole time I needed it to so I have no complaints. Rimmel Clean Finish Matte in Classic Beige, sorry for the crappy pictures, I really like this with a primer and setting powder it last the whole day for me, it doesn't stay matte but it doesn't look bad either.
 
 
Maybelline Color Tattoo Metal in 70 Barely Branded, I finally caved and got one! Rimmel Match Perfect concealer in medium and Rimmel Fix and Perfect Pro in 002, this when swatched was really nice so I have high hopes for it and all of these products!
 
 
Lastly I finally picked up Naked 2, I already have the original but I knew I wanted both and what can I say I am a sucker for mattes so I had to get the Naked Basics too, and already Walk of Shame is my new favorite shadow!
 
Next time Rite Aid has a 40% off Wet n Wild I plan on picking some stuff up so be expecting a haul from that soon! Have you tried any of these, what are your thoughts on them? Sorry for bad swatches and pictures! Also for this not being anything more then right to the point to get through it, but a lot of these I didn't have much of an opinion on yet, if there is anything you would like reviewed let me know!
 
Also I know I have been very on and off with my blogging but I have been super busy and I should get back to track soon now that I'm done with school, I also mught do a clothing haul soon, even though fashion isn't my thing.

Nail Polish Haul

Hey,
 
So last week wasn't the best week for me, and therefore I treated myself to a few new nail polishes, personally I feel nothing makes up for a bad week like a few new bottles of nail polish. Usually I only get a few at a time like one to three bottles, this time I went a little overboard. I bought these in two separate days and at three different stores. So lets just jump right into this, starting with drugstore polishes. I just want to apologize about the glare on the photos, glass doesn't photograph well.



From left to right: Sinful Colors: All About You, Lush Life, Beautiful Girl, Easy Over, Rimmel Bare Naked, Sally Hansen Coin Flip and Mighty Mango.


From left to right: China Glaze: Mimosa's Before Mani's, Fancy Pants(more purple in person), Tart-y for the Party, Fade Into Hue, Sunday Funday, and Deviantly Daring. All of these except for Deviantly Daring are from the Avant Garden collection, I suggest checking this collection out if you haven't yet, great spring polishes, but be warned if you see the whole collection you might want to buy them all.

I have been on the hunt for a good dark teal polish that is a creme finish, I can only find medium and light ones that have no shimmer, do you know of any good ones that are under ten dollars?

I just did a Mani Monday post featuring Bare Naked and Coin Flip, if you want to see what those two polishes look like on nails you can check that post out here.

NOTD: First Mate, plus mini haul

Hey,

It's been a bad few weeks, especially these past two weeks, which is why I haven't been blogging and for it being such a crumby week I decided I needed to treat myself to a few new bottles of nail polish. I picked up, all by China Glaze, Ingrid and then the two for today's NOTD Whirled Away(limited edition, part of the Cirque Du Soleil Worlds Away collection) and First Mate. Ingrid is a mid tone taupe brown with a subtle gold shimmer, Whirled Away is a clear based, not glitter so I guess confetti polish with mainly black but some white chunks too, all in different sizes. First Mate is a beautiful dark almost navy blue. I love the combination of First Mate and Whirled Away, I will say that I was a bit disappointed by Whirled Away but I am glad to have it because it looks really nice after a few coats but on its on or just one coat is a bit disappointing. I only used Whirled Away on my ring finger as an accent nail. I didn't use a top coat or a base coat. All polishes purchased at Sally Beauty Supply.

Sorry for the glare!

Haul

Hey,

I went shopping on Tuesday to pick up a few things for school and ended up getting more then school supplies. I also had to pick up a few things that will be at the end.

Lets get into the makeup I bought, I went to Target and while I was there I picked up a few ELF things.


I picked up a Mist and Set spray, black liquid liner, and a pen/marker liner; I'm going to review/compare that to the Wet n Wild one in a week or two. I picked up a concealer from their essential line in Apricot Beige, then two studio line brush thee complexion and blush brush, these are both so soft and didn't shed at all during the first wash. Lastly I got a thing of their blotting sheets and a pressed powder in Ivory. I also ordered a Revlon Colorburst Lipgloss in Rosegold and received it on Monday and didn't think to include it in with the things I got at target.


I went to Sally's after target to get something that is at the end; well there I picked up a pair a red mini Tweezerman tweezers, a mini powder brush just to throw in my bag and a China Glaze polish in Awakening, now that I'm shifting towards fall color it was hard to pick ones I liked since I have colors similar to theirs. I had heard of Awakening and how unique it was and that it supposedly looks like a sunset on you nails, it really is and does, its kind of a purple shade with orange; jut check it out its really pretty and different.

This was sent to me for doing something, I'm going to make a post sometime in October all about why and how and whatever else applies to that. Its a gorgeous quad although for Lancome I was bit disappointed. Like I said or typed I'll talk more about that later. Sorry for the not so great pictures. 


I needed a makeup mirror, because I decided I wanted to move my makeup in to my room and out of the bathroom since that's supposedly bad for your makeup and everyone hates when I spend so much time in the bathroom getting ready. This is nothing special just something beauty related that I needed and got so figured I'd share. A little update on Wednesday the light already stopped working I'm going to switch out the batteries and if that doesn't work take it back and replace it with a Revlon or maybe it was Remington one they had but I didn't get because it was a bronze/blackish color.


Second to last, Hot Rollers, the are by Jilbere and were on sale for 42.99, I actually paid sale price instead of discounted, this is the real reason I went to Sally Beauty Supply.  Another Wednesday update, I tried these this morning and so far I love them they heat up pretty fast under three minutes and have more then enough clips and rollers and they are gentle and leave my hair looking great! I would so far really suggest these.

Lastly, this is actually the first this I bought on Tuesday but I was saving it for last, I know this has been out for a long time but every time I go to buy it, I always talk myself out of it and do something else with the money so this time I just went right in to Sephora and bought it, I didn't give myself a chance to reconsider, I am really glad that I finally bought it though since I had wanted it for a long times.
I just got this off of the Sephora website since it wouldn't photograph well in the flash and even without it just wasn't working.

I bought everything myself with either my money or my mothers, with the exception of the Lancome quad.
