Hello beauties! Today I wanted to share my IPSY GLAM BAG PLUS! Some of you may have heard about ipsy glam bag. If you've never heard of ipsy glam bag, it's basically a beauty subscription box! They send you 4-6 small, sample sized products for $10 a month. However, my post is about IPSY GLAM BAG PLUS. Which is a newer subscription box they released last year! The glam bag PLUS includes 5/6 FULL SIZED makeup AND skincare items for $25/month! At first ipsy only made it available to people that were already subscribed to their original ipsy glam bag. But now it's available for EVERYONE! Here is what I received in my April IPSY GLAM BAG PLUS : 1. Feel balanced moisture balancing cream ($28) This moisturizing cream is for face and body. It's cruelty free and vegan friendly. It has a nice scent and claims to keep your skin hydrated for 24HRs!  2. Paris Hilton Skincare  Dual action cleansing gel ($29) This cleanser claims to rem...

Hello lovelies!, I'm not sure if you all have heard of the Jessica Rabbit collection from Ciate London. I happened to stumble across the collection announcement on Instagram. Once I got a look of the packaging I knew I had to have it! Then I looked at the pricing of every thing and decided I would only get one thing lol. I decided to get the Jessica Rabbit palette! I ordered it from their site and got in the mail less than a week ago. I hadnt had time to play with it or do swatches because of #momlife But the other day I finally had some time for myself and took some pictures of it! There is also a red lipstick ($22) and a highlighter ($32) in the collection. The packaging for every product in the collection is so beautiful! Especially if you're a fan of Jessica Rabbit like I am lol. I didn't get the other two products because everything together is a bit out of my price range and because I couldnt convince myself I really needed another highlighter an...

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...

Hi lovelies! Yesterday I posted a drugstore makeup haul. I got one of the new WetNWild metallic lipsticks! Today I decided to try it out. Here is my lip swatch and hand swatch of the lipstick. The lipstick isn't drying it actually feels nice when you apply it. Its not very long lasting though but I expected that even though it says its a liquid lipstick. Overall I like it, and I like the way it looks. I'm not sure if I'll be purchasing any more colors though. This was the only color that caught my attention. Here is a short video clip of the swatch. Thats it for my thoughts and swatch on the new WNW metallic liquid lipstick! These aren't as hard to find as their new highlighters. I found mine at Walgreens but I've also seen them at Rite Aid! Thanks for reading! Don't forget to follow me on Instagram! @BeautyWithConnie xoxo

Hi lovelies! Not too long ago I ordered some things from Colourpop.com so I decided to do a HAUL! Here is my new video where I show you everything I got!

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 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! Feel free to follow me on Instagram for more beauty/makeup posts! @BeautyWithConavi xoxo -C

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...
