My Lovely New Steve Madden Purse!

Who doesn't love new purses?! I went to TJ Maxx today and saw this super unique colored bag. I literally could not pass it up, and for only $24.99, who would? I just loved the light salmon/peachy/beige color.  It has so many cute little features that I really think it is something that will be in my closet for a long time.

January 2013 Ipsy Bag!


If you didn't get this months Ipsy bag then I feel bad for you!! This months bag came with so many amazing products. I tried super hard to not spoil what was in the bag by going on their Facebook page but in the end I just HAD to know. I got my bag the next day and I was so excited to open it up!

Take a look at the items that were included in this months Ipsy bag!

 You could receive one of three soho eye brushes. I received the crease brush (the one I wanted!)

A good sized Big Sexy Hair spray. I actually needed hairspray so I am really pumped about this one.

Woohoo!!! This is the item I was most excited about! This is a good amount of Josie Maran's Argon Oil! I have heard so many great things about this product. I hope I like it :-)

Oooh pretty :-*

I can't tell you how great this body butter smells. The instant I opened my Ipsy package I could smell the orange scent. I am in love!
So happy that they have began putting a little Ipsy tag on the inside of their bags. Go Ipsy! 

I would definitely try to get a membership to Ipsy.com as soon as possible! I have been a member for a year now and I have not regretted one month of this. Of course there will be months where you won't love every product but in the end you will be receiving tons of items that you will undoubtedly love! I hope that you consider a subscription!

Sigma Beauty Haul - Essential Kit and Flat Top Kabuki



Hello ladies! I finally made my first Sigma purchase. I have been dying to try out these brushes since every beauty guru under the sun has them. I figured it would help me follow tutorials better and actually make some Youtube tutorials myself (and have these brushes to refer to so viewers know which brushes I am using for each step.) I am beyond excited about my purchase!  I hope you like the pictures!

elf Flawless Finish Foundation Review and Pictures!

 elf Flawless Finish Foundation in Sand ($6.00) - A light to medium dewy finish foundation. I bought this months ago during one of their Studio line sales and only paid $3.00. That being said, I truly believe this is a really good foundation if you are going to spend $3.00 but maybe try for something else if you are spending the full $6.00 (I know $3 isn't a HUGE difference but there are a lot of drugstore foundations in the same price range). The finish on this foundation is nice but it is a bit oily when applied. One other hing that I should mention about this foundation is it also has a strange scent? Not sure how to explain it but it's a lot stronger than a lot of the foundations that I have.  The bottle has a film over the glass that makes it have a smooth finish that I really like. The pump is actually really nice as well! Overall it is a GOOD purchase for your money but not something I would choose over a few other drugstore foundations!
 



 The picture above and below is one pump - It is a good amount and should cover a good portion of your skin.


Where to Buy; Select Target stores, eyeslipsface.com ($6.00)

Sephora Cinderella Palette - Pictures and Swatches


 Here Sephora, have ALL OF TEH MONEYZ. I swear I spend way too much at this store. Today I went and grabbed the Cinderella Palette after much contemplation between this or the Vice Palette. This obviously won but you KNOW I will be picking the Vice Palette up some day soon. I am absolutely loving this palette and though I don't want to write a review quite yet, I wanted to share some quick photos. Enjoy!

Sephora "Friends and Family 2012" haul!

So this year Sephora decided to make their annual  "friends and family" sale truly private. They are referring to this sale as the "Employee Appreciation Sale" and only those who work at Sephora receive codes that they may then pass out to friends and family members. I was able to snag a code and purchased a couple things on my wishlist. Sephora has mentioned that they WILL be having a "public" 20% sale for those VIB members. Let us hope they stay true to their word!

Now for the fun stuff! I grabbed two palettes that I have been eyeing. I have noticed that I need more options for my daily eyeshadow and have only been reaching for my Urban Decay Naked palettes. Though they are lovely palettes, that is not okay! Every girl needs variety, right?




Wet n Wild Megalast Lip color Dollhouse Pink


Wet n Wild Megalast Lip Color in Dollhouse Pink 967 ($1.99) - A bright pink. This pink is super vibrant and absolutely beautiful. Wet n Wild definitely know what they were doing when they released this line of lip color. The application is smooth, the pigmentation is incredible, and it's long lasting. The triple whammy for sure!

 Such a beautiful color!

Where to Buy; Walmart, K-Mart, Drugstores (CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid)

Little Black Bag October 2012

Little Black Bag is a subscription site that allows you to choose one item for $49.95 a month and then will give you up to 3 more items to up the value of your order to $100 or more! Not only can you pick your item and get 2/3 more items added to your bag, but you can then trade with other users for their items! It's definitely a unique experience! I have seen some start off with 3 items and end up with 10. It all depends on how much time and effort you want to put into your bag (or also, just pure luck!)

I have received three bags so far since the end of August. I will be posting those bags later on but decided I would start with my newest bag that I just received in the mail! I am so excited to show you what I picked out!

 Every package that I have received so far is so nicely packed! Everything comes new with tags attached. Most items come with dust bags as well!

Forever21 and TJ Maxx Haul!

Hey lovelies!! Guess who went shopping? MWAAAAHHH. So I grabbed a few things from Forever21 and TJ Maxx. Seriously, I am IN LOVE with fall wardrobe shopping. Almost so much that I am going to grab a few more pieces this weekend. Hope you enjoy!


 I picked up four pairs of jeans (2 from Forever21 and 2 from TJ Maxx) and four shirts (All from Forever21).

Sephora Haul: Benefit The Pretty Committee

After purchasing Bad to the Bronze from Benefit a few months ago I have been really interested in purchasing more kits from them. The value is just amazing since most of the products featured in these bags are full size! I went to Sephora and saw this amazing deal, three full sized products including Bella Bamba blush, Stay Don't Stray, and the Eye Bright for $38. Such a steal. Oh and did I forget to mention you also get a decent sized High Beam as well? Overall I am just beyond happy with this purchase!
