Hello lovelies, I haven't posted in a while. Today I thought I would share a recent COLOURPOP haul. I bought their new "Yes Please" eyeshadow palette and the lip products from the iluvsarahii x colourpop collection. Here are pictures of the products. 1. YES PLEASE palette. ($16) This palette immediately caught my attention because of all the beautiful bright colors! A lot of people say it's a good dupe for the Natasha Denonna palette which retails for over $100! Colourpop is WAY more affordable. Here are all of the colors swatched. P.S. You can't really see the first color swatched because it's literally my skin tone! Lol. 2. ILUVSARAHII X COLOURPOP LIP PRODUCTS I bought all 3 of the ILUVARAHII X COLOURPOP lip products in the collection. First is the Ultra glossy lip gloss in "CURVII" 2nd is the Ultra matte liquid lipstick in "MAMACITA" 3rd is the Ultra satin liquid lipstick in "951" Here ar...

Hi lovelies, As you can tell by the title of this post I'm going to let you all know of a super affordable ring light! I dont know about you all but I've always wanted a ring light! It's great for taking makeup pictures and also for my YouTube videos! The one I originally wanted (which is very popular) was more than $200. I didnt really want to spend that much on a ring light so I never got one. Recently I went on google and found a SUPER affordable ring light on EBAY! Here is the video of me unboxing it and the rest of the details including price! I also linked the ring light in the description box as well. Please thumbs up, share, and subscribe to my YouTube channel! Also, follow me on Instagram! @ ConnieAvilove Until next time! xoxo -C

Hi lovelies! Today I wanted to share this $1 ( yes $1) eyeshadow palette! I bought this palette at a dollar store near me and I hadn't looked at it until a few days ago. I originally bought it, along with a bunch of other things, to do a dollar store makeup challenge. However, I never got around to it. I finally opened up the palette a few days ago and decided to swatch it for my Instagram and I was pleasantly surprised! The palette is by ColorMates and it has 12 shades. They actually feel very nice, smooth and even a bit buttery! Not too powdery at all! Here are the swatches of all the shades on my arm (no primer, applied dry) Here is a picture WITH FLASH. I think for only being $1 this palette looks pretty darn good! I'm even thinking of doing some GET READY WITH ME videos using this palette. Let me know if that's something you would like to see!

Hello lovelies, Today I wanted to share a few things I got from the drugstore recently. Here is my drugstore makeup haul! I saw these Rimmel London lipsticks on sale for buy one get one 50% off. I picked up these two. These are from the Kate nude collection. They don't have names but the one on the left is number 48 and the one on the right is number 45. Below are swatches. I wore 45 today and I LOVED the way it looks. They also have a sweet smell to them. Next I picked up this Rimmel concealer.  I read somewhere that it's a dupe for the YSL concealer. I thought it was worth a try. I still haven't worn it but I plan to soon! I also picked up some Ardell demi wispies!  These are just so pretty and natural looking :) Next I picked up this Tattoo Junkee Lip paint. Ive seen other people try these out and was curious to try them for myself. It says its long lasting, dries matte, and is smudge proof. ...

Hello loves. I recently made a trip to the drugstore and took a look at the new makeup displays. I came across this new lip palette by L'oreal. It's called Colour riche "La palette/Lip" It has 8 lip colors. 2 are matte, 5 are cream, and 1 is a highlight. The palette I got is in the shade "03 NUDE" They also have one with different shades of pink and another with different shades of red I believe. Here are pictures and swatches! The highlight shade is the last one all the way at the bottom. It's very pretty. I don't exactly remember the price of the palette. I believe it was around $10-$15 I got mine at Walgreens. P.S. It also comes with a lip brush. I haven't tried any of the colors on my lips yet but I plan to very soon! Once I do I'll be posting lip swatches on my Instagram! My Instagram is : LoveXConnie That's going to be all for this post! I'll have another new...

Hello lovelies! Today I wanted to share an eyeshadow palette I just bought a few days ago. I went to Walmart and found one of the new WetNWild AU NATUREL eyeshadow palettes. This one is called "Nude Awakening" It cost me $5.96 + tax Here is what the palette looks like. The palette has 10 eyeshadow colors. I was a bit disappointed when I saw that it doesn't come with a brush. Especially since my other WetNWild palette does and it's around the same price. It has many every day colors. Here are swatches with NO FILTER on my arm. I ran out of space on my arm so I swatched the black color at the top instead of all the way at the bottom. My favorite shades are the 3 shimmer shades in the middle, the black, and the brown burgundy color. That's only as my first impression. I look forward to trying them on my eyes. I'd say for the price it's a pretty good deal. Especially if you're a begin...

Hi lovelies, It's been a while since my last post. I bought a few things from the drugstore the other day so I thought I'd post about them here. First i'll start with the Jordana "sweet cream matte lip color" lipsticks. These are the whole reason I went to the drugstore. I only managed to find 2 colors out of the 4 I was looking for. Here they are and swatches. P.S. They were only $2.99! The purple color is called "Mixed berry soufflé " The orange/red color is called "Mango sorbet" These are pretty good for the price. They do have a strong scent to them when applying. It smells kind of like play-doh to me lol. They're definitely matte and actually a bit difficult to remove (if you're using makeup wipes like I did) They also leave a stain on the lips. Overall I like them though, I'm currently on the hunt for 2 of the more "natural" colors. OK. Next I bought one of th...

Hi everyone, I recently made a trip to Walgreens and noticed this small palette in one of the displays. I was immediately drawn to it. It's the new Rimmel London sculpting palette designed by Kate Moss. I only picked up one and got the color "003 Golden Bronze" It cost me $6.99 at Walgreens. Here is the palette:  Here are some swatches! This palette looks very promising and I'm excited to try it out on my face. On the display it said this particular one was for "Medium to Deep" skin tones. I only saw two more options there  "Fair to Light" and "Light to medium" There could be more but I'm not sure since they're fairly new to me. Anyways that's it for this post!

Last week I bought a couple liquid lipsticks from Colourpop.com Ive been wanting to try their liquid lipsticks for some time and finally decided to buy some. I only bought two of them to try out and see if I like them. The two colors I bought are: Left: Stingraye Right: Trap Colourpop liquid lipsticks cost $6! super affordable. Here are some pictures. Also, colourpop usually gives you $5 off when you sign up for their email list! I love the way the colors look so far, I'm excited to try them on my lips soon. Thats all for now. x C

I picked up a couple of lipsticks from Walgreens yesterday. They're from the brand "Circa".  I've never tried any of their products before but decided I'd get a couple of their lipsticks to try. They were a bit pricey.  I believe they were about $10 each. The packaging is nice and sturdy though and the lipsticks swatched nicely. The two colors I got are "Natalie" (on the left) and "Brigitte" on the right. After I swatched them I realized how similar in color they are. Unfortunately the color of the bottom of the lipstick was a bit off. Anyways here are pictures of the lipsticks and swatches on my hand :) I haven't tried them on my lips yet. However they seem to be very smooth. I wouldn't mind buying a couple of darker colors. They do have a bit of a scent to them, I'm not sure how to describe it, but it doesn't bother me. I might update this post once I have...

Today I'm back with another OOTD. This outfit is from about a week ago (cue the song lol). The weather was still warm here where I am. (California) Now it just recently started to get a little colder. However I'm sure this outfit is still wearable for fall by just adding a jacket/coat over it. Here is Todays outfit: DETAILS: My dress is from a local boutique it was less than $20 My bag is from eBay. It was also inexpensive but I can't remember the price. My shoes are from Forever21 from a while ago. Here are a few more pictures :) I love body con dresses and I'm not afraid to show off my curves :) That's going to be it for this post! I'll have another OOTD soon! xo -C
