ELF Haul - 9/22/2013

I haven't purchased anything from ELF for a long time, but I decided it was time. I recently started loving their lip exfoliator, so since they had 50% off their studio line, I thought it would be a good time to make an order.

China Glaze "Desert Sun"

China Glaze "Desert Sun" has been in my collection a while, but I've never actually worn it. It came out with the Safari collection a while ago. I think I was so drawn to the collection because a lot of the colors were neutral. Needless to say, I've never tried this polish on until now.

Lip Product Allergic Reaction - Again?!

Oh the joy of having allergic reactions to lip balms. Last time it was the EOS lip balm, which I have a post on HERE. This time it is Nivea's lip balms. I have the Touch of Smoothness and Milk & Honey balms. I used this product on Saturday (4 days ago) and yesterday I started having a dry patch above my lip. Now, it is absolutely horrible.

Pink & Purple Eyes

Essie "Sunday Funday"

One of my newest polishes in my collection is "Sunday Funday" by Essie. I thought it was a gorgeous pink, almost coral color that would be perfect for summer. Even thought summer is almost over, I have been wearing this until it is fall.

Target Haul - 9/14/2013

I'm sure I'm not the only one that walks into Target for one thing and come out with a million other things that you don't really need. Well, that happened to me! The first thing I purchased was this Sonia Kashuk brush set. I absolutely love the design on the handle of the brushes. I was also very excited about the duo fiber blending brush. I don't normally see many of those.

MAC Haul - 9/9/2013

I love MAC! Their packaging is gorgeous to me and their products are amazing quality. Every once and a while, I like to treat myself. These are the lipsticks I purchased on Tuesday and I received them on Friday. Amazingly fast shipping!

What's Burning?

I have finally started a new candle. Sadly, this will probably be the last summer scent before fall comes. Either way, I'm extremely excited for fall! This candle is called Aloha Waikiki. It smells exactly like hibiscus and it definitely fills up the room with the scent. Not only that, but the packaging is super cute!

 

What are you burning now?

Tips on Purchasing MAC's New Collections Online

I have always had problems buying something from MAC's new collections when they come out. I have found an easier way to purchase these items. Today the Retro Matte lipstick collection came out. I tried purchasing two lipsticks and an eyeshadow I've been eyeing, but I could not get it to work on my computer. Instead I turned to my phone.

Ta-da! I added both lipsticks to my cart and the eyeshadow I've wanted. It was so much faster than doing it on the computer. I added both the lipstick that I wanted on the computer, but the website would not load the eyeshadows or the cart.

It workedddd! Seriously, every time a new collection comes out I am going to turn to my phone. It took me less than five minutes to order the three things I wanted on my phone. I tried again on my computer just to see how long it would take, and it took over ten minutes and it wouldn't load the eyeshadows.

 

Anyways, I hope this helps! :)

 

MAC "Painterly" Paint Pot VS. MAC "Soft Ochre" Paint Pot

I have been trying to find a post with the comparison between Painterly and Soft Ochre. I was never able to find one, so I decided to go ahead and buy Soft Ochre. I've had Painterly for almost a year and I did like the texture of it. It's just that sometimes it seems like it is a little too pink for my skin.

Bath & Body Works Haul - 9/1/2013

What is my favorite part about it almost being fall? FALL SCENTS! I love everything about fall, but my favorite thing has to be all of the delicious candles and soaps. I thought I would share with you a little candle haul since I'm so excited!
