Weekend Hauling

Hey Beauty Lovers! I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend (I know I am). I've been going a little makeup crazy lately buying everything under the sun (or what seems like everything to me) So naturally  I have a haul for you all. I went to a couple stores Saturday just to browse and to see what I could find. I stopped at Target to pick up a Sonia Kashuk beauty blender sponge and I also picked up another foundation brush because well a girl can never have to many brushes. I also picked up so makeup wipes. Next I went to Sephora where I had to restrain myself. I initally went in to pick up the Urban Decay roller girl palette (which I purchased)  and that was it but I found some new things that are definitely going on my beauty wish list.


Beauty Blender Sponge from Sonia Kashuk - $9.99 @ target. I've been seeing a lot of people purchase and rave about these sponges via YouTube and beauty blogs. It is said to make you foundation look FLAWLESS. I will do a more in-depth review on how to use it as well as what my opinion on it.


Studio Tools Large Foundation Brush- 6.99 @ Target. You guys know that I love brushes so I just wanted to pick up another one.This brush is really soft so far and I think this might be one of my faves.

Neutrogena Makeup Remover Wipes- $5.99 @ Target. These makeup wipes are THEBOMB.COM. They remove all your makeup with only one wipe and leave you skin feeling moisturized.

And last but not least Urban Decay Roller Girl palette $32.00 @ Sephora. I've been on the edge about pruchasing this palette for the longest and I finally just decided to purchase it and Im glad I did. I more in-depth review along with more pictures will be coming in a couple of days.

E.L.F. Haulage

Hey beauty lovers! No you are not seeing things this is my second blog of the week.(I'm on a roll) So I recently recieved my package from elf and I was excited about these new products so I decided to share them with you. I know you all know that ELF is always having some kind of sale everyday of the week, and well I fell into the trap and made an order. There were some products that I really wanted to try so this was the perfect time to order them. I purchased all of these products off of the studio line which range from about $3 to $6. I have wanted to try this face primer forever because I have heard so many good things about this and how it is comparable to so many higher brands. I will be posting a review later to let you guys know my thoughts. My first impression about all of these products are they are wonderful. Wanna see any in-depth reviews let me know!!!

La Femme Blush



Hey beauty lovers I have a product RAVE for you! So after about a month of anticipation I finally got my Makeup mania order in the mail. I placed an order with them on April 25 and didn't get my order until May 18!!! That was a really long time but, I sort of expected it from the reviews I saw on You Tube. Enough about how long it took though I know you guys wanna see the products. I purchased four blush (Purple Passion, Golden Sunset, Bordeaux, and Orange). One word to describe these colors GEORGOUS!!!! All of their blushes are super pigmented so be careful applying the brighter colors. The blush retail for $2.50 in pan form and $3.00 in the container, you you say Affordble!!!I bought all four of these blushes for the price of one MAC blush (now thats my kinda makeup). I would recommend these blushes to everyone from beginners in makeup to makeup artists, this product would be GREAT for a makep kit. Wan to purchase some for youself click here



Pros:

Price is very affordable
Pigmentation
Color selcetion
Size
Stay on all day

Cons:

CVS Sale

Hey guys I was on twitter and I heard word that CVS is having another sale where certain products are 50-75% off. I stopped by and saw a lot of nail polished as well as various makeup products. Be sure to check out your local CVS for some good deals and make sure you let me know what you got!!!!

New Drugstore Lipsticks

Hey beauty lovers, I have some new goodies that I picked up from CVS and Walgreens that I wanted to share with you. I've been looking for a perfect purple lipstick along with other colors for my summer lip faves and I believe I found them!!! Since CVS has a BOGO 50% sale on Cover Girl going on this week,  I purchased 2 beautiful lipstick Spellbound and Divine. Spellbound is a very pretty and vibrate pink with hints of purple.Divine on the other hand is a very pretty and pigmented purple color. Both are creme lipsticks. Next, I ventured to Walgreens where they were having BOGO 50% on Revlon cosmetics so I purchased two, one in Siren and the other in Berry Haute. I'm sure you have heard everyone raving about bout of these lipsticks, but if you don't know about them Siren is a bright orange and Berry Haute is a purple said to be comparable to Up The Amp by MAC. One thing I didnt not realize was that Berry Haute and Divine are very close in color.  Check out swatches and pictures as well as my haul video on youtube.

Still Glamorus Cosmetics

Hey everyone! I recently came across a new ( to me) makeup company, still glamorus cosmetics. Click here to go to their website. They have a wide variety of beauty related prodcuts from foundation to mascarra. Their prices are very reasonable and items are very pigmented. I purchased two full size pigments (5 gram jars) in vintage and knock out. I also purchased samples in (ninja turtle, lala, addicted, nude beach, and smurf). Full size pigments are $6.50 each and you can get different sample sizes (5/$10, 10/$15, 20/$25) and you get enough product for about 4 uses. I will have a more in depth review with swatches coming soon!
