Haul Time !!!

Hey dolls! Long time no post....as usual lol. I do apologize but I have been working and enjoying my summer!! I had one of the most amazing summers and its sad to see it end. I start my fall semester this coming monday, so I have one last weekend to relax

Here are a few things that I have purchased over the past few weeks, so this is a collective haul. The purpose of this is to show you what I have, and just how well it works (aka-is it even worth it?) So REQUEST reviews guys =]

****************************************

So as we all know, OPI came out with the Swiss Collection for fall 2010. I GOT..........

The Color to Watch *Diva of Geneva*Lucern-tainly Look Marvelous



I also picked up 2 more polishes, Funky Dunkey from the Shreck Collection and Russian Navy from the normal collection...These polishes sell for $8.50 at Ulta.

*******************************

I also went to Mac a few times during the month and got a chance to get some items from the In the Groove Collection. And yes, I DID get my hands on Stereo Rose Mineralize Skinfinish which looks like this.........

Its TOO pretty!!

I also picked up New Vibe Blush, and I also am in love with it! It has a deep plum side, and a shimmery golden/bronzy side.

From the normal line, I picked up a lip liner in Stripdown and a lipstick in Angel. Kim Kardashian is known to use these two products from Mac, and my skin color is similar to hers so I decided to give it a go....!



From the new Fabulous Felines Collection I picked up 3 of their new Superslick Liquid Eyeliners. I GOT..............

Pure Show-a straight up gold with sparkles!

Marked for Glamour- a blue/grey with shimmer

Desires and Devices-a dark forest green with shimmers.





I also bought a new perfume from Victoria's Secret Called Love Rocks by Sexy Little Things....

These are most of the beauty products that I purchased in the past couple of weeks that I thought you all would be interested in. Feel free to request any reviews on the products that were mentioned and I will do them. Comment and follow if you like what you see!

My Top 5 Things Under $5

Hey Ladies! I know I have been gone for a while, but summer has been super busy for me! I've been having heaps of fun but I also work part time so I literally had no time to update y'all.

**Here are the products that I LOVE and will use forever and they are all under 5 dollars:

1. Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Moisture Cream-This is a deeeep conditioner (as the packaging says lol) and it really does its job!! It smells fruity and delicious and for something that is only $3 it is better than any other deep conditioner that I have ever tried.










2. Blistex Complete Moisture Chapstick- This lip balm smells like fresh lemons and creme, and it makes my lips incredibly soft! It's about $2 at my local Walgreens and I can get one easily whenever I run out (although I have a whole stock in my room haha). It even has Spf 15

3. NYX Cosmetics Lipsticks- These lipsticks are around $4 and they are extremely creamy and rich in color. In my opinion, they are just as pigmented as MAC lipsticks but even creamier! Some of my favorite shades are Paris, Louisiana, and Chaos.

4. Essence Single Eyeshadows- I don't particularly like this company, and I think that they're packaging is somewhat cheesy. But their single eyeshadows are only $2 at my local Ulta and they are surprisingly pigmented! Also, it gives you 2.5g of shadow in the pan. Not a bad deal!

5. Skintimate Shaving Gels- These go from $2-4 but are rich, creamy, and soft. I love to use these gels for my legs because I think that they are so moisturizing and smell great too. My favorite is the Flirty Mango!

I really hope you guys get a chance to try these products and I know you will love them too!! Please Comment and Follow if you like what you see =]

Birthday Outfit/Haul

Hello Ladies! Today I will be showing you what I wore on my birthday (when I went out to dinner with my friends) and what I got for my birthday. Keep in mind that I am not trying to brag in any way, I'm just so excited to show you all what I got =]
Oh, and if you would like a review on any of the products, please request it in the comments section below! Thanks!!!

So this here to the left is what I wore!

It's a maxi dress that I bought from Forever 21 and I felt so pretty in it! It fits me really well and it's colorful and bright, which is perfect for summer!
I was also wearing Black wedges from Steve Madden, but you can't see those. My cardigan is from Bebe and all my jewelry is from Guess.















Now on to what I got!!! My mom and dad got me a brand new Coach purse and let me just say that I have been wanting this bag for MONTHS and I was so happy and blessed to receive it!
I think its perfect for me, and I'm obsessed with white bags lol.




















Next my parents also got me a new camera, since I broke mine this winter. I love taking pictures with my family and friends, and I am going on vacation soon for the summer so a camera is almost essential for me. Plus, now I can take better pictures of swatches or clothes for you guys =]




The camera is a Sony Cybershot W350 and it has 14.1 megapixels! How awesome is that!

And yes, I just HAD to have it in pink haha












Next I received a perfume from my lovely aunt and it is Midnight Fantasy by Britney Spears. It smells so fruity and yummy!! For sure a summer scent!!

Then from my friends and some family members I got lots and lots of Lush items, which made me super happy!!!!!! There are so many that I will just list them:
Honey I Washed the Kids Soap
Honey Bee Bath Ballistic
Flying Fox Shower Gel
Ma Bar Bubble Bar
MMM Melting Marshmallow Moments Bubble Bar
Rub Rub Rub shower scrub
Sakura Bath Bomb
Rockstar Soap
Gorgeous Hand Creme





One of my friends also had something made for me which was just SO precious!! It's a jewel encrusted star with my name on it! I can't seem to find a photo of it, but it was gorgeous!!

Well, these are the main items I received and I was so happy and blessed to get it all. I am so thankful for everything though, and I'm so glad that my friends and family got such thoughtful gifts!!!

Please comment, request, and follow ladies!! There's more to come =]

It's my birthday!

Hey ladies!
Today is my 20th birthday!! Honestly, it was just the best day ever! My friends and family did SO much for me and I am grateful for it all. My family supports me through everything that I go through in my life, and I can never repay them enough for that. My friends stick with me through my issues and heartaches and I could never survive without them. I am WHO I am because of the people that surround me with good morals and values. So, this might be a short rant but I think it's worth it! I hope you guys can all appreciate the little things in life, the way I have learned to do, and soon you'll be much much happier =]
This is all for now! Please support me by following my blog...and I promise I have new posts coming!

MAC To the Beach Collection

Hello Ladies. Today I would like to share with you a few things I bought at MAC last week. As you all know, MAC's To the Beach Collection came out and I was in love with it ever since I had heard about it! I love summery colors and shimmers and who doesn't love the beach?! So of course, I had to walk on in and check it out for myself at my nearest MAC counter. However, I ended up buying only 2 things from the collection. From the normal line I bought an eyeshadow in Expensive Pink and so far I love it.

I purchased an eyeshadow in Sweet and Punchy and a lipstick in Funbathing.
The eyeshadow is a veluxe pearl finish, so yeah, it's shimmery but not chunky with glitter or anything. I absolutely LOVE it and recommended it 100 percent.

Now the Lipstick that I purchased is a brownish, reddish shimmery color and it is a creamcheen so it applies super soft. I think it's a great color for the summer, and it really flatters my bronzey skintone.

The packaging is super cute for these items and I loved the idea, but overall the colors were not amazing. I was excited for this collection for a really long time, and I feel that it did not live up to my expectations. Or maybe it's just because I don't need to stock up on all of the bronzers in the collection lol. I honestly feel that the colors, for the lipsticks and eyeshadows, were nothing different from the normal MAC products.
Don't get me wrong though, I did love the idea =]

Also, I really wanted Marine Life but it was sold out at my MAC! I wasn't super upset, but I think it would have been a cool addition to my collection.

Sorry that I've been gone!!!!!!!!!

Hey y'all! I am so sorry that I have been gone FOREVER!

I don't like to sit here and make excuses, but it was the end of the semester for us college students and there was just tooo much to get done! But I can say that I am now a proud Junior =]

My love for clothes led me for my other passion: make-up! I am now obsessed with collecting it and creating new and fun looks with everything that I own. Next to glamour, I love reading about all sorts of topics and issues. Writing is another love of mine, since I grew up writing short stories and making up my own silly poems. But all in all, I just love being with my friends and family because they are the closest to my heart.

LUSH Haul

Hey everyone...hope you are all doing well. So I went to Lush about a week ago and I purchased a few things that I am in love with. Now I have to say that I am a bit of a Lush junkie, lol, but I don't have a Lush store close to me so I don't get to go there often. Here are the items that I bought and tried out:

Pop in the Bath Bubble Bar


















This bubble bar smells great!! It smells like citrus and flowers, which sounds like a weird mix but trust me its nice! It's super cute and makes big fun bubbles.

Blackberry Bath Bomb


















This bath bomb smells just like blackberries.....the name pretty much says it all. The smell of the berries will really wake you up and make you feel happy on that boring day =]

The Sex Bomb


















This is my favorite bath bomb EVER! It smells so flowery and girly...it just makes me feel pretty.!! I know for sure that there is jasmine and ylang ylang in here, so you know it will be good! Also, the little flower in the middle pops out during your bath and floats around...it makes you feel like your in a very luxurious bath. Try it for sure if you love girly floral scents!

Honey I Washed the Kids Soap


















This soap smells like pure honey-suckle...the smell isn't too strong, but it makes you smell so nice when you walk out of the shower!! I love it, and as you can see, I have used about half of it already! I'm sure that a lot of other bloggers and youtubers will agree that this is a great soap as well.

That's all that I purchased recently from Lush and I really hope that you guys try some of these products, especially the sex bomb. This is all until next time...thanks guys and don't forget to comment and follow !
