Recently Purchased Makeup Swatches

Hello fashionistas!

As promised, here are the swatches of all my recently purchased beauty goodies! 

Hard Candy Fox in a Box blush in Hot Flash. 

Stila convertible color (can be used as a creme blush or on your lips) in Lillium. 

Please excuse my top in the mirror, I hate when I take a picture of products with mirrors and I end up in it. Sorry! 

Left to right:

Hot Flash all blended together, lower left corner of Hot Flash, upper left corner, lower right corner, upper right corner, Lillium unblended, blended.

I'm sorry these aren't the best swatch pictures, my camera is not good at focusing. Annoying. 

Stila long wear lip liners in Devoted (left) and Delighted (right).

 Delighted on top, devoted on bottom. I like devoted better because it's pinker. 

Wet n' Wild palette in Comfort Zone.

This is the left side of the palette, the top has no base and the bottom has Urban Decay's primer potion underneath it. I'm incredibly impressed with this palette!  

 This is the right side of the palette (not that you couldn't have guess that that was coming)! Again the top has no base, and the bottom has Urban Decay's primer potion underneath it. 

Again, the pigmentation leaves me dumbfounded! I paid a whopping $3.99 for this, the quality is crazy good!

The last color has a duochrome finish, which I thought I was able to capture in the pictures above. It can show up as blue, brown, and red. It's a beautiful color. If you should buy one thing out of everything I've swatched, this is it. 

Stila duo eyeshadows in Burgundy and Seashell.

Again, my camera wasn't focusing, sorry this isn't a very sharp image. 

 The top has no primer (left burgundy, right seashell). The bottom has Urban Decay's primer potion underneath it. Seashell is a pretty warm, shimmery pink. Burgundy is a deep, shimmering brown. They work well together. 

We finally have our room put together (for the most part). My desk has been ordered, and so have the duvet covers. I hope it gets here before we leave for vacation! I'm am dying to show you guys, but I don't want to to do it until it's all here. You guys will love it! 

If you all want to see any looks with these products, let me know, I'm more than happy to do it!

Have a great holiday weekend!

Recently Purchased Makeup

Hello fashionistas,

Here are a couple of things I picked up last week. 

I seriously need to stop shopping. 

I bought this at Costco for a mere $10! Stila is one of my favorite brands (if not all time favorite), so when I saw this I jumped on it. The convertible color on its own is $20, so this was a mega steal.  

Wet n' Wild palette in Comfort Zone and Hard Candy Fox in a Box blush in Hot Flash.

If you guys want to see swatches of anything (or everything), let me know in the comments below and I'll get right on it.

I've had a very lazy day. I finished a book, did some laundry, took a bubble bath. That was about it. 

What have you all been up to?

A Collective Haul

Hello lovelies, today I thought I would do a collective haul of things I have bought over the past few weeks. Sorry for the crummy picture quality, they were taken on my cellphone. I am going to display all of the pictures and then tell you what I think about them.
















Time to tell you what it all is
1.) This is all of the stuff that I have collected over the past couple of weeks. Yes I know a lot!

2.) Falsies from Maybelline in very black (or whatever the blackest color was), the Stila Lash Visor Waterproof in blackest black (this came with the smudge pot, the stone/smog/kitten trio, one step primer, and the Stila #30 brush), and Lash Maxx from Rimmel. My favorite would have to be the Falsies one. I love it! Makes applying mascara so quick and easy, one swoop and I'm good!

3.) L-R: Stila Waterproof Lash Visor, Lash Maxx (Rimmel), and Falsies (Maybelline).

4.) This is the Stila trio. Left to right are: Stone, Smog, and Kitten. Kitten by far is my favorite in the trio, and perhaps ever!

5.) These are the swatches in the same order as above.

6.) This was also in the $20 Stila thing I got from Costco. It is a gel eyeliner in black, it stays all day and doesn't stray! So easy to work with, I love it!

7.) This was the Stila One Step Makeup, this is in the color medium and I am more a light. I have yet to try this.

8.) This was the Road to Radiance palette that I ordered off of Zappos (you get free shipping!).

9.) Left to right eyeshadow colors: Snow Bunny (a shimmery champagne color),Souther Bell (a mauve color), Valley Girl (a little bit of a shimmery true pink color), City Chick (a dark purple), and the blush color is in Hibiscus ( oh and it is a creme blush). This can also be worn for a lip color. I love all of these colors and for 10 bucks it is a bargain!

10.) NYC Plaza Pink creme blush

11.) Swatches of Plaza Pink. The first is layered and the second is one swipe. I really like this color, it is easy to blend and looks nice with my tanned face(: You can find this at WalMart.

12.) This is swatches of Rimmel London's Natural Bronzer in #022 color Sun Bronze (on the website is called Sunny Bronze, so I don't know). I like this a lot, it is a matte bronzer no sparkles/shimmers whatsoever. It is perfect for a warm. sunny glow. I typically put this on the sides of my forehead, the sides of my face (not the apples of my cheeks), my nose and a my chin, in the rest I put whatever blush I want to use. Then I blend it so the lines aren't harsh, it looks really nice. I forgot to take an up close picture of the product, sorry!

13.) This is the brush that came with the thing I bought at Costco. It is a double ended brush and I absolutely love it! The stubby end is really good for patting on shadow and the other end is good for your crease and inner corner (like highlight colors).

14.) This is Hard Candy Take Me Out Liner in the shade 'Camo'. This is a nice greenish brown shade and it really does remind me of camouflage. Sorry I forgot to take an up close picture of this product too!


I hope you guys enjoyed my collective haul.

OOTD/ FOTD/EOTD

Hello my lovelies, how are you today? I am having a wonderful day. My mom's best friend came over today and we went to Home Goods, Panera (yummy!), Sephora, Joanne's Fabrics, and Costco. I was very good in Sephora I looked, I lusted, but I did not (yes you read that right) buy anything. I told my mom what I wanted for my birthday/Christmas, this is ridiculous seen as my birthday is December 8th and Christmas is obviously just as far away! I also casually said if she 'felt like buying me anything next time she went that I would be fine with it! LOL! Part of the reason I didn't buy anything was because last time I went to Costco (like a month or so ago) I had seen this Stila set that had : A face primer, a gel liner, a mascara, a double ended brush, and a palette that had the colors stone, smog and kitten (which I really wanted!) all for $20! I think everything but the face primer is full size, maybe not the gel eyeliner (but who cares). When I had gone they had a 'warm palette' and a 'cool palette'. I had really wanted the warm palette but alas they were out (cue the tears! Okay not really). I ended up buying the cool palette. This was the reason why I didn't buy anything in Sephora. I will be doing a review and swatches of the Stila set once I use it for a bit.


Now for my OOTD, FOTD, EOTD(:
First up, my outfit.

T-shirt- from New York and Company (was in a haul from last month)
Jeans- Kohls Gloria Vanderbilt, I just rolled them up some
Shoes- didn't have any on yet wore my trust gladiators
Bangle- Forever 21
Earrings- Forever 21



My face, I end up changing my hair because my bangs were driving me NUTS! I am thinking that it is time to get them cut (again). So I did a middle part and pinned each side over (it ended up being really cute and easy).



Here is my eyes upclose. The products I used are Maybelline eyeshadow (single) in 'Seashell', then a light purple in my FLIRT! palette and a slightly dark color (not very dark at all though) purple in the same palette. Mascara Rimmel Lash Maxx (which I am loving!). For my face I used a CG concealer I think the shade is fair (I don't remember), Physicians Formula powder in 'Translucent', and Hard Candy blush in Living Doll.






And this is with my glasses, me and my four eyes(:







Thanks for following and commenting, I love you guys!

Extremely Late June Favorties

Hello lovelies! It is past time for my June favorites, so here it is.


Left to right
Maybelline nail polish in 'Pink Crush' , Ponds Cold Cream (sorry the label was peeling so I took it off), Maybelline Full n' Soft mascara in very black, Milani eyeliner in 'Dark Brown', FLIRT! eyeshadow in 'Gypsy Nights', Hard Candy blush in 'Living Doll', and CO. Bigelow in the shade 'Mentha Lip Tint in Pink Mint'.

I did my nails three or so times last month in Pink Crush. I did a little post on this, here is the link - http://glamorousgirl2014.blogspot.com/2010/06/maybe-shes-born-with-it.html

While on vacation (technically July but, whatever) I was really using the Ponds Cold Cream to hydrate my skin more then anything. Normally I use a moisturizer after using this, but it seemed to really moisturize my face. My face was so nice and soft!

Maybelline Full n' Soft mascara in very black seemed to make it onto my eyelashes quite a lot last month! Here is a picture of the wand.


This a swatch of the final four products.


I love this eyeliner, I just seemed to be using it even more frequently than normal! My mom used to love one of the the Stila eyeliners in some brown shade and I told her how much I loved this and then she ended up getting hooked on it too.

The eyeshadow is a color that I bought a longggggg time ago and I didn't seem to use that much after I bought it. Then I used it with the makeup look I did for my formal at the end of the year and graduation. And in June I ended up using it a lot too.

This is the blush that I bought in a haul I did a couple of weeks ago. I really like the product, the packaging not so much. It kind of fell apart and so did the bronzer that I bought. That is beside the point though. When I don't feel like doing a lot of eye makeup I tend to focus on my cheeks a lot and my lips. This product gives me a bright pink color and it reminds me of blush on like a doll or something. Very pretty!

The lipgloss is super moisturizing and I love how long it lasts (like hours!). The color is pretty sheer, which is fine for me. Here is a picture of it on me (this is all I have on, no lipstick/chapstick nothing else except the gloss).


Hope you enjoy my super late June favorites(:

Haul (:

As I said in my previous post, I went to the mall today with my mommy (yes my mommy!) and my sister. I bought lots of stuff, and my mom bought me some more stuff(:
So I will attach photos of everything and their prices and where I (and my mom) purchased them at.



Victoria Secrets - originally $35.00, on sale for $19.99 and it was my dads birthday this month and they sent him a $10 card for his birthday (because he buys my mom and I stuff from there) and with that they were $10.00. I literally could live in their boyfriend sweatpants. I love them, they are so comfy. And not to mention super cute.

New York and Company- $15.00
I like these and they are 'boyfriend style' they are just shorts for summer(: I hate my legs though, I don't like my thighs so I don't like to wear shorts but, it is just too hot here!

WalMart- $ I don't know. Glamour is my favorite magazine so I always buy it. I just felt like including it in this haul post of mine. I wish it was like the UK Glamour which is giving away full size Benefit products! Oooh jealousy...

Bath and BodyWorks- $1.87 each normally $7.50 each
I LOVE THESE! They were 75% off and I bought five! As you can see the Ultra Mentha Lip Shine is my fave (darker green), I bought the Mentha Lip Shine (lighter green), and the Mentha Lip Tint in Pink Mint. I had to stock up, they are NEVER this cheap! They are the best lip glosses E V E R !

WalMart- $1.72
Target has these too. I like the formula, depending on the color you have to do 2 coats or so. I will do a review and picture whenever I do my nails with this color. Oh and this color is Midtown.

Bath and Bodyworks- Buy 3 signature scents get 3. This was $12.00
It is one of the sprays in PS I Love You, I love this spray! It smells so yummy.

Bath and BodyWorks - any 3 signature scents, get 3. (My mom got 4 things and I got 2). This is Cherry Blossom. It is $10.50.

Bath and BodyWorks- 7 of the wallflowers and scents for $20
This is for my bedroom and I got Sleepy Lavender. I didn't get 7 of these my mom and I both got some of them for rooms in the house(:

Bath and BodyWorks - 7 of these things and scents for $20
I got this for my bathroom and the scent is Pomegranate Lemonade

WalMart - $7.00
This is from the Hard Candy line and it is a blush in the color 'Living Doll'. Pretty color, I will do a review on this and the other thing I bought after I use them for a bit.


WalMart-$7.00
It is from the Hard Candy line as well and is in the color Bombshell. I like it, and supposedly it is a 'blush' it is wayyyy too dark to be a blush, so I'm going to use it for a bronzer. (I'll do a review). By the way this picture is from the website (my picture wasn't very good..)
