New Years Eve Makeup!

Hello Beauties! Of course I had to do a NYE look for you guys (with glitter) and here's what I came up with. Loose glitter is so pretty but it can be such a pain, if you are looking for a good loose glitter adhesive I do recommend using the Too Faced Shadow Insurance Glitter Glue. It really works great and I had minimal fallout.  On to the look, enjoy!

Black Friday & Cyber Monday Haul

Hello Beauties! I finally have all the things I ordered during the Black Friday/Cyber Monday Madness! I just received the last package from Milani yesterday. I did all my shopping online, I can't say without struggle but I'm sure it wasn't as bad as some of the horror stories I've heard that went on for Black Friday. Now my Mom on the other hand is a Black Friday Pro, she left at 10 pm Thanksgiving evening and returned around 8 am on Friday! I'm pretty sure that's where I got all of my shopping skills from her, but even I couldn't do that! Well let's get to the haul....



I ordered from MAC, Coastal Scents, JewelMint, Sugarpill, & Milani.


MAC technically didn't have a sale (IMO) but they did have free overnight shipping which I figured was better than the normal free shipping or every so often free 2nd day shipping. I decided to check off a couple things off my wish list.
MAC Sheen Supreme Lipstick - Tea Ceremony
MAC e/s - Club (my camera does this lovely duo-chrome e/s NO justice!)



Coastal Scents, this is where my struggle came in. The had a 50% the entire website & they posted the sale on Thanksgiving. It took me FOREVERRRR to place my order! Due to the mass amount of orders their website was moving so slow & the checkout process took even longer, but I was persistent and I did not give up! I think it was around 12 am that Saturday that I was finally able to place my order. I ordered 12 hot pots, the empty pan palette (free with the purchase of 12 hot pots) and a synthetic flat shader brush. I currently don't have the names/numbers of the hot pots in front of me so I'll update that later.



Milani Cosmetics had 50% off and free shipping, that was a pretty good sale! I didn't go too crazy, I only ordered 4 things.
 My favorite pencil liner - Liquif'eye eye liner in Black
Infinite Liquid eye liner - Infinite
Specialty Nail Lacquer - FX-Gem
Baked Blush -Fantastico Mauve


Flash - You can see the sparkly goodness in this picture
Sugarpill Loose e/s - Hysteric
Sugarpill Pressed e/s - Dollipop

No Flash

Sugarpill, they had a 20% off their website. I never tried any Sugarpill and I thought this was a great opportunity to. I used these 2 for my 2nd holiday look and I really like them.

 Bow Tie Bracelet

Cosmic Fusion Necklace

JewelMint, they had $9.99 for 1st time buyers so I got my Mom to order one piece and I ordered the other.

FOTD : California Nights

Hello Beauties! So a while back Sephora had two NARS e/s on sale for $8 being that I didn't have any NARS e/s I thought this was the perfect opportunity to try a couple. I ordered both shadows they had on sale, California and Night Sun. They are decent shades nothing I would pay full price for but to pay $8 for something that's normally $23 I can't complain. Once I got them I threw them in my makeup drawer and never touched them & I finally decided to use one today. On to the look, enjoy!
