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. 

Did you get any Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals? Please leave them in the comments below.

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!

Collective Shoe Haul

Hello Beauties! Today I have a collective shoe haul from GoJane and Dillards (the top two places I get my shoes from). Most of these shoes are perfect for the fall/winter season. Let me just say I am a girl who loves shoes! When designing most of my outfits I typically pick the shoes first & build up from there. I have a few ideas in mind for these shoes so I might also have some outfit posts featuring these shoes so look out for that. I also love heels & this post reflects so, all of the shoes have some kind of heel. Now on to the good stuff, enjoy!

FOTD: To Infinity and Beyond!

Hello Beauties! I know, I know lame name right? I just could not help myself, I used the lovely Infinity eye shadow from Raving Beauty cosmetics and I really could not think of anything else to call this. I have been obsessed with everything royal blue this fall season & this eye shadow is partly the reason. It's one of the prettiest shadows I own. If you like bold and bright shadows I definitely recommend you checking this one out! This is a very bold look with bright eyes, cheeks and lips. On to the look........................

Sephora Friends and Family Haul!

Hello Beauties, I know I have to be about the last person to do this but I had to wait for my favorite item I got from this haul. I also added the one thing I got from MAC Winter and Ice Holiday Collection.

Sephora Anti Bacterial Daily Makeup Brush Cleaner - This is the one thing I can say I actually needed. I was using ELF's daily brush cleaner and I said once it ran out I would not be re-purchasing due to the smell. I'm so happy I decided to try this one because it smells so much better.

Kat Von D True Romance Eye Shadow Palette in Angeles - I had been eyeing this forever and I seen it was on sale for like $15 and I was like why not?

Tarte Amazonian Clay Long-wear Blushes in Tipsy and Natural Beauty - This sale was the perfect opportunity to get these because they retail for $25, but they are really long lasting. I love the one I already have and wanted to get more.

NARS DanMari All About Cheeks Palette - Originally I was not going to get this because I've heard so many bad things about Orgasm and Super Orgasm so with my 1st order I just ordered Desire, but once I saw this in person it was LOVE at first sight. It was out of stock for a while and luckily it came back in stock before the sale was over. Needless to say I returned Desire and I am so happy I got this. I love all the colors (besides Super Orgasm, only because I do not like glitter on my face) and even though these are not full size I feel like this was one heck of a steal.

MAC Paint Pot in Morning Frost - This was the one and only item I was remotely interested in. It reminds me of the paint pot form of one of my favorite e/s All That Glitters.
