A little quickie...

Hi!
 
Just wanted to stop by quick to show some goodies that I've picked up from ULTA, Target and WalMart the past month or so.
I've been wearing that watch like crazy. The bottle is a liquid highlighter that I picked up after the lovely Danielle mentioned it in one of her videos.
Oh and check out this stunning Sonia Kashuk bronzer
Sonia Kashuk Beautifying blush "Sunset"
Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain "Lovesick"

Coming soon I will post some Sonia Kashuk, NARS and Inglot collections too :)

Thanks for reading!

Pink Saphire or better yet...3DS Pink!

Hi there!

I'm going to do an updated post on more L'oreal Infallible eyeshadows that I've picked up lately, but first I want to show this oh so pretty shade.
This shade, along with Gleaming Bronze (which I will show in a later post), I saw on a separate display, as part of their Summer Collection.
As soon as I saw it, I knew it reminded me of something, but didn't confirm it until I got home.
This shade is a metallic rose with a bit of a frost; it's very unique and I have nothing similar in my makeup stash. I have to admit I usually stay away from pink eyeshadows, but this one for some reason was telling me "oh I'm so pretty take me with you!"...yup that was weird.
Anyway, I bought it and I just couldn't stop admiring how beautiful the shade is, unfortunately I'm afraid it's not going to be used very much since I can't seem to make it work for me so far.

What I am amazed by is that it's almost the exact color as my Nintendo 3DS


Oh well, I'll keep trying to use with different bases, most likely a few paint pots to see if I have success.
Hey if all else fails, I'll just have it as eye candy in my makeup stash.

Thanks for reading!

Sweet Frutti Apple


Hey there!

After purchasing my very first Revlon Lip Butter in Tutti Frutti, I was so impressed that I picked up a couple more shades, Sweet Tart and Candy Apple.




Candy Apple:





So far these three are the only ones I have, but who knows, I might check out some other shades.
Not anytime soon though, I kinda went crazy the past month so I'm on a makeup no-buy for now, I'll share what I got on next posts.

Have a great night!

Random Accessory Post

I love accessories, specially bracelets.
I got these 3 bracelets from Charlotte Russe

The green bracelet (that was one of my something green items on St. Patrick's day) I got from a dollar store a couple years ago.



Have a great day!

Check out My Stash

My Urban Decay 24/7 Shadow Pencil Stash that is...I picked up this set last month at Sephora for $19.00.
Left to Right: Sin / Juju / Rehab / Delinquent / Clash

I tried them on my forever creasing lids and they hold up pretty good. Usually it takes seconds before my lids crease after applying a product (with no primer), but the UD 24/7 Shadow Liners last a while with no signs of creasing :)
Here's a closer look at each shadow pencil:
 Sin 
Juju
Rehab
Delinquent
Clash

I mainly got the set because I wanted Juju, Rehab, Sin and Delinquent; Clash really didn't get my attention and I haven't used it at all.
Delinquent is a gorgeous purple, but my problem with it is the bright purple shimmer...don't like it at all. I like to use Delinquent it on my lower lash-line/waterline and I use a purple eyeshadow on top to hide the shimmers (I use Inglot Eyeshadow Pearl 446).
Left to Right: Clash / Delinquent / Rehab / Juju / Sin

I'm definitely getting more of the UD 24/7 Shadow Pencils, I already have my eye on Lit.

Have a great day!

It's Always the Last One...


...Or so that's how it seems very often.

Hi Lovelies!
I've found myself saying "It was the last one!" almost every time when I'm looking for a specific article of makeup. 
One of the many times this happened was when looking for the L'oreal Infallible eyeshadows.

I bought Iced Latte on my first trip to ULTA.

Next I found Eternal Sunshine at WalMart

Then at Rite Aid I picked up Amber Rush

Lastly, I found Bronzed Taupe at Target

And all four shades I got were the last ones!...well, at least on display.

These are the only shades that I really wanted, but maybe I'll pick up Perpetual Purple.
From Left to Right: Iced Latte/Eternal Sunshine/Amber Rush/Bronzed Taupe

Clockwise from top: Eternal Sunshine/Iced Latte/Amber Rush/Bronzed Taupe

What do you think of the L'oreal Infallible Eyeshadows?
 :)
Have a great day!

Hello There!!

Hi Lovelies!

Ahh long time no blog! It's been so long I don't even know where to start, but I guess I should start by showing some goodies I've gotten recently no? I haven't been posting as much as I would want to, but I've been taking tons of pics of stuff I've recently purchased.
I do want to tell you first that I've finally tried Inglot eyeshadows and I am in love!
An Inglot counter opened in San Diego (Fashion Valley Mall) towards the end of last year, I found out thanks to a tweet from Tina. I went along with a friend to go check it out the following weekend and we were both  amazed at all the selection they have. I have gotten some shades at the San Diego counter, but I recently took a trip to Las Vegas and visited their store and got a few more. I will share in another post all the shades I've gotten so far and maybe a bit of the trip as well.
After coming back from Vegas, I went for the first time to ULTA, I haven't gone before since it's a bit far from where I live, but I got a few goodies.
2 Real Techniques brushes that were BOGO 1/2 off, 2 NYX eye pencils (also BOGO 1/2 off) a L'oreal Infallible eyeshadow in Iced Latte and an EOS lip balm, which I've been looking for a while.
But before my trip, I found the Maybelline Color Tattoo eyeshadows, I picked up Bad to the Bronze and Bold Gold.
Lastly, I got the Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Shadow Pencils, the set of 5 was $19.00, not bad!
Alrighty, I will show a bit more detailed of the stuff I got during the week.

Hope you have a wonderful day and start of the week!
