Hello lovelies, Today I wanted to share my recent ELF HAUL! Elf cosmetics is a drugstore brand that you can find at target,cvs,walmart, and pretty much any drugstore. You can also find their products online on their website. I recently bought a few items from there and I thought I would share! Elf is a really affordable beauty brand and they are cruelty free! Here is a picture of every thing I bought. The first thing is one of their new flawless concealer. I already tried their 16 hour camo concealer and I really like it. I decided to buy their other new concealer to try it out! The only downside is that it seems I got the wrong shade! Since I bought these online I pretty much just guessed which shade would work. I ended up getting one thats way too light but I still plan on using it! If I cant put it on my under eyes then I'll simply use it as an eyeshadow base! I will update on my Instagram once I use it. NEXT: I boug...

Hello lovelies! Today I've decided to start a new thing on my blog. My "Friday Favorites" or Favorite. Basically every Friday I'll be posting some of my favorite products or just one product that I've been loving that week. I've decided to start doing that today! Here are my Friday favorites this week! BHCosmetics Carli Bybel palette: I have been obsessed with this palette since the moment I got it in the mail! All of the eyeshadows and highlights are really pigmented and beautiful. It's the perfect every day palette and it has a nice, big mirror! Not to mention it was only $12.50! so affordable! Stila stay all day waterproof liquid eyeliner: I had this in my stash and kept ignoring it because I wanted to save it only for special occasions. However, recently I started using it more and I love it! It goes on really easily and dries quickly. It lasts a really long time on the eyes. Perfect for that winged eyeliner! It's a...

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...

Here are a few pictures of the eyeshadow palette I got in my last Sephora haul. This is the Anastasia Beverly Hills Shadow Couture "World Traveler" Palette. This palette has some of my go to colors as well as some new colors that I don't wear often but wouldn't mind experimenting with. (That blue and yellow) I have another Anastasia Beverly Hills palette and I absolutely love it so I decided to get another one. This palette was only $30 compared to the Urban Decay Naked palettes that cost about $54. Here is a closer look at all the colors and their names. And of course. Here are the swatches of all the colors. These are the top 6. And here are the bottom 6. All of the swatches were applied dried and with no primer. I am pleased with the palette so far not to mention I love that it also comes with a nice brush. I know I'll be using it a lot. If you're in search of a nice quality pal...

I finally decided to order a couple of lipsticks from Gerard Cosmetics. I had some of their old "color your smile" lip glosses but I hadn't boughten anything from them ever since they changed their name to "Gerard Cosmetics" They were having a sale at the time so I decided to get a few lipsticks and lip glosses. Today I'm going to share a few pictures of the lipsticks I bought. I will probably swatch the lip glosses and post them in a different post in the near future :) Now for the lipsticks, I only ordered 3 lipsticks. Each lipstick costs about $19. (Pretty pricey) but like I said I bought mine when they had a sale/deal going on. I believe I only paid maybe $9 or $10 for each. Anyways, The colors that I got are: Kimchi doll, Buttercup, and 1995. Here's a picture of all 3. Here is what "Kimchi doll" looks like on my lips. Here is "Buttercup" on my lips. And here is "1995"  ...

Today I wanted to write a really quick post to share my current favorite eyeshadow palette. I found this palette months ago at my local Walgreens. It's by WetNWild from the Fergie collection. The best part? It was only $7! The colors reminded me of the first Naked Palette which is what caught my attention. It has now become my go to everyday palette. Here's a picture of the palette. And here's a picture of the colors swatched on my arm. As you can see they're very pigmented and these are all watched DRY with no primer. I think that's pretty good for a $7 palette. The palette also comes with a double sided brush. At first I thought I wasn't going to use it at all. Surprisingly, I really like the brush. I use it all the time even when I'm not using this palette. Since this palette was so inexpensive I don't mind using it everyday and using up all the colors. It allows me to save my expensive palette...
