♥ Exciting Beauty Buys ♥

I FINALLY GOT MY HANDS ON THE REST OF THE LIMITED EDITION BABY LIPS
I believe I have them all now!

Here are the 3 that I purchased today:
L to R: 90 Yummy Plummy, 60 Melon Mania, 80 Pink Wink
Yummy Plummy is very sheer, but it darkened my lips ever so slightly, which I really liked, and I have a feeling that if I let it set, it will darken up, just like a Revlon Lip Butter I purchased not too long ago.
I feel like Melon Mania is going to be my new favorite. It's a hot pink color, but it doesn't go on like that. I dunno how to explain it, but I love how it looks. I suppose it looks very similar to how Cherry Me looks when I wear it, but Melon Mania deifnitely has a more "punch pink" to it.
Pink Wink is definitely too light for my skin tone (but it smells delicious), and I'll probably wear it under a dry lipstick more than I would alone.

The full list of LE Baby Lips are: Twinkle, Coral Crush, Pink Wink, Melon Mania, and Yummy Plummy
(And in case you were wondering, I do in fact own all of those)

Next up, I have some nail polishes!
Sinful Colors was Buy 4 for $5 with your Walgreens card, and at first I only had 5 in my basket, but then I saw that there were 8 colors in the new Sugar Rush Collection, so I decided to grab the other 3 since I'd be saving a little bit of $$$$.

L to R: 953 Unicorn, 1169 Sugar Rush, 1170 Sugar N Spice, 1171 Sweet Nothing, 1172 Cotton Candy, 1173 Orange Cream, 1174 Candy Coated, 1180 Sweet Tooth
I honestly love all of these colors and I am so glad they were 4/$5 cause that way I only spent $10 instead of close to $16
I'm gonna paint my nails with one of these in a few minutes but I'm not sure which one yet!

------

And last I bought a Maybelline lipstick that I've been looking for (and for some reason it's only at Walgreens and not Target or anywhere else?)

 Maybelline Color Sensational Lipcolor in 160 Fifth Avenue Fuchsia

I don't have any quality photos of it on me now, but I do have a semi-decent webcam photo.

♥ Clothes ♥

Obviously I LOVE buying clothes, but I think these might be my favorite ones so far, besides my new everyday purse!

From Target: Faux Leather Jacket and a Lilac Shoulder Bag
The jacket was $40 which is pretty cheap for most faux leather jackets that I've seen. And this looks so good with a dress (I wore it yesterday) and I bet it will look just as nice with a skirt!
And I really only got the bag because it was on clearance for $12.50 and it was the last one in my Target, so I couldn't resist~

Within in the next week I will probably buy a dress or two from there also (of course I couldn't find stock photos online), but I'm clearly gonna post them here if I do because I'm kind of obsessed with this.

Detail pictures:

I love the "quilted" pattern on this! Pretty sure that's 90% why I got it.

Love, love, LOVE this color~

✧ Beauty Products ✧

Bought some beauty products yesterday that I'm pretty excited about!

Rimmel Stay Matte Powder and Revlon Nearly Naked Foundation
Wow, the foundation photographed dark, but it's really not. Can't wait to see these two on my face! :3

Revlon Nail Polish in "Vintage" and Sinful Colors Nail Polish in "Cinderella"
You just can't pass up polishes that are $2 or on clearance!

Organix Coconut Milk Shampoo and Conditioner
I'm super happy to start using this again! It made my hair so soft~

Alrighty, that's all for now!

Stuff I Bought Yesterday

I bought some things when I got paid yesterday, and I really regret it, but oh well, nothing I can do now.


Black, red/cream chevron, and dark mint skirts - Target $19.99 each
The only problem I have with them is the length (not used to it at all) and the fact that they all came with the same thin brown belt. I wish each style had come with a different belt. Especially since there's 5 different ones, did they really think that a person would want 5 belts that are exactly the same!?


(this was supposed to be horizontal)
But yay for Totoro and Team Rocket shirts!
I immediately cut the necks out after this photo.

And last, I bought some belly button rings and 2g silicone tunnels, since Spencer's has BOGO 50% off
I'm sad I missed out on the BOGO $1


I'm currently wearing the pink one ^o^

OH I FORGOT
I also bought hair dye


I didn't need developer but I couldn't pass up getting it for 99 cents!
I also bought some Frizz Control drops that are supposed to make your hair shiny too (also on sale for $1.99) and a Deep Conditioner pack for 99 cents






Victorian Disco

Around the same time that I bought the lip products in my previous post, I received my order from Victorian Disco. I was quite nervous about this order, having read some bad reviews on their service and a couple of iffy comments on their facebook.
Despite this, I went ahead and ordered because the collection I bought was being discontinued, therefore being ridiculously cheap (I believe each pot was $3)
Of course I purchased their Sailor Scouts inspired colors!
Here are some pictures:

Recent Makeup Buys

I've bought quite a bit of makeup in the last two weeks or so (mostly lip products) and I think I'm done for a while, so I thought it was time to make this post.

Makeup Haul (featuring my sad attempt at swatching)

So I bought some makeup that I've been wanting yesterday and I love it all!

I attempted to do some swatches but I apologize for the terrible lighting - I was in my room and the lighting in here is kind of weird. My skin isn't as yellow as it looks in some of these pictures!

Anyway, on to the show haha

A Bit of a Haul

Went to the Florida Mall in Orlando today to try and get my phone fixed (sadly it didn't)
Anyway, while there I went to MAC, Lush, and Sephora and I thought I'd share what I got (no pictures though because I'm lazy)

MAC:

  • Matchmaster Foundation SPF 15 in 2.0
  • Prep + Prime Skin Refined Zone Treatment
  • Fluidline in Blacktrack
Lush:
  • Cupcake Fresh Face Mask
  • Grease Lightning (sample)
  • Karma soap
  • Twilight bath bomb
  • Dragon's Egg bath bomb
  • Pink bath bomb
Sephora
  • Nail file (for my car)
  • Urban Decay All Nighter Spray
  • Boscia Pore Purifying Black Strips
  • Stila One Step Correct Primer (sample)
  • MakeUp Forever 500 point perk
In the MakeUp Forever 500 point perk is their HD primer, Aqua Eyes liner in 0L (black), Smoky Lash mascara in Extra Black, HD Microfinish Powder, and Lab Shine gloss in S2. All mini sizes of course but still awesome. This is the first 500 point perk that I've actually liked and I've had 600+ points for like a year haha.

And what's funny about the primer sample is that the girl just handed me the little jar they use and told me to get it and I said to my mom "she shouldn't have done that cause I'm gonna fill this up all the way", she even helped me tap it down so I could get more haha. I hate when they give you a sample cause they only do like two pumps of whatever it is and it's like, really how am I supposed to put that all over my face?

Today was good (minus the phone crap).
