Quick shopping! #Haul

I am so proud of myself as I was able to survive the entire month of April without buying any makeup at all. I may have had few discount coupons emailed to me but I stayed strong and didn’t fall for it. A HUGE Shout Out to my Cyber-Friends for giving me the boost to stay tough. 🙂 (high five you guys!!)

Now, it’s the 2nd day of May and I kind of bought just a few items. The first two items I grabbed is the Revlon ColorBurst – Lacquer Balm. I love these balms so much as they are very hydrating on the lips. I also love how they smell. It’s almost like the smell of a toothpaste as it smells “minty” and they glide on your lips like butter.

Buy One, Get One…(BOGO)!👗🎽👜

Here I am again, sharing with you a few things that I just bought earlier today.

I never really planned of buying something but Forever 21 was calling my name..I was actually at home relaxing but I kept hearing this voice in my head saying “Forever 21 is ON SALE”..waahhhh!!! So, I ended up going just because.. I know.. I know.. that “just because” is never a good idea especially to someone like me..someone who has a shopping addiction. Yes I admit.. I have a shopping addition (I think..haha) but you know what? I was really excited when I walked in and I saw the sign “BUY ONE, GET ONE” on all clearance items.. Imagine how affordable would that be? aside from the reduced price, it’s buy one, get one free! and who doesn’t Love BOGO right?? One more thing, hubby only gave me 30 minutes to shop because we are going somewhere so this is very shocking😱 that I’m able to grab 6 or 7 items in 30 minutes.. hhahaah Continue reading “Buy One, Get One…(BOGO)!👗🎽👜”

Buttery soft and silky smooth, our scrumptious new Butter Lip Gloss tastes as sweet as a sugar cookie—and makes your lips look downright luscious.

Smells so good and I just want to eat the entire bottle) 🙂

Another cream shadow that I added to my collection is the Maybelline New York Eye Studio Color Tattoo 24HR Cream Gel Eyeshadow, #45 (Bold Gold). It cost me $6.99 and I wore this a lot since I bought them couple of weeks ago. Very easy to wear and it’s not too shimmery too. they are just perfect for everyday use. 🙂

ParT One.. #1

Couple of weeks ago, I went beauty shopping “again ” 😛 but I’ve decided to divide my posts into three. This will include a quick product review as well.

Face tools that I recently purchased and immediately fell in love with. I am going to try to make this post short and hopefully fun at the same time. So! let’s get started.

With My FAVEuary! post, I mentioned  that I love the Essential Tools brushes more than the Real Techniques brushes. They are just so soft and they doesn’t even have fall-outs.. if that’s even a proper word “fall-outs”.. If you haven’t tried them please do so. These brushes are so cheap and if you’re wondering where to find them, I purchased mine at Walmart. You guys might wonder why I mentioned Walmart a ton it’s because Walmart is closer to where I live and they are just very affordable too which is the most important of all. 🙂

I purchased two more brushes and they are the Deluxe Powder brush and the Smooth Coverage makeup brush.

1The Essential Tools Step 1 Complexion Deluxe Powder Makeup Brush is one of the essential tools for a perfect complexion. Use with powder for overall coverage. The silky-smooth bristles distribute makeup flawlessly. The easy-grip handle helps you to hold the brush comfortably for a precise application. First, cover imperfections (a concealer brush works great). Then, swirl the deluxe powder into loose or compact powder. Sweep and blend in a circular motion all over the face and decollete to create an even, smooth finish. Next, you’re ready to define your eyes with an eye shading brush.

The Essential Tools Step 1 Complexion Smooth Coverage Makeup Brush is one of the essential tools for a perfect complexion. Use with liquid or cream foundation and BB creams for buildable coverage. The easy-grip handle helps you to hold the brush comfortably for a precise application. First, cover any imperfections using a concealer brush. Next, create a smooth complexion with a smooth coverage brush by blending desired liquid or cream over the entire face. Next, use a powder brush with loose or compact powder to set your makeup for flawless coverage.

Another product that I purchased and became obsessed with right away is the EcoTools Pure Complexion Facial Sponge.

This sponge COMPLETELY changed my facial cleaning routine and they are very-very gentle on the skin too.♥

  • Exfoliate and clarify
  • Deep cleansing
  • 100% natural ingredients
  • Made with vegetable fiber and bamboo charcoal
  • Gently exfoliating; softens when wet
  • Hottest trend in skincare
  • Get a gentle, better clean; look beautiful and live beautifully every day
  • $5.98

The EcoTools Pure Complexion Facial Sponge is handmade with 100% natural ingredients, including konjac vegetable fiber exfoliating bamboo charcoal. What is a konjac? A highly renewable perennial root plant mostly comprised of starch (similar to a potato). It grows in warm climates including Japan, Korea and Southeast Asia. Aside from being used in sponge products, it is also used as a vegan alternative in foods. Get a better clean by removing impurities and revealing smooth, refreshed skin–just add your favorite facial cleanser and water. Wash away dirt, oil and makeup, and leave skin glowing without over-drying or causing redness. Sponge is gentle enough to be used morning and night. For best results, use sponge daily. After each use, simply rinse sponge with water and lay flat to air dry. Taking care of your sponge will help it last longer. Replace every one to three months.
