Ok, so I'm officially the worst blogger ever.
What's it been...2 months since my last post? Whoopsie. Seriously, though, I've been so busy with moving and school and I'm always doing something. This has been the only weekend where I've had no plans and nothing going on. Which is why I can give a new post! yay!
I don't want to be too proud either, so I don't know if I have any loyal readers and what not. Heck, I've only wrote about 5 posts. But if by chance you have been wondering where in the world I've been, well, now you know. I'll try to do better, but I can't make any promises. School takes over my life. Sorry.
Anyway...Onto the goods.
Over the past few weeks I've picked up a few things, as well as gotten a few gifts, and I thought I would share them with you. And yes, they're all beauty related. I'm not going to show you that I went out to Walmart today to pick up some bottled water.
So as you can see, I've accumulated quite a bit of stuff. I'll go more in detail with each thing I got.

| ELF Pallet |

ELF Brush Set
face brush, bronzer blush, angled brush, shadow brush, smudge brush, lip brush, eyebrow brush, eyeliner brush, angled eyeliner brush, eyebrow comb, and foundation brush |
I got the ELF pallet from my boyfriend, Brent, for my birthday. Yes, he did great. The brushes also came with it as a set. He ordered it offline at
www.eyeslipsface.com. I think it was $50. For the amount you get, it's a great deal. I love love love the brushes! The makeup itself is amazing as well. The pallet comes with eyeshadow, bronzer, blush, lip glosses, and concealer. I really like the bronzer and blush in this set. And omg, there are a ton of eyeshadows. I just love all my options.

| Teasing Brush and a regular brush |
I went to Sally's today and I picked up a new brush. The one I had before was losing it's brissles and it was just painful to use. So I got this orange one with a gel grip for $2.00. While I was at the checkout counter, I saw this pink teasing comb for $2.00 as well, so I snatched it up. Let me tell you, this teasing brush is the bomb! It is so good and will hold a great tease. I have one teasing brush that I ordered offline that's good, but this one beats it by a long shot. And it's only $2.00...and pink!

- ELF Beauty Book - Everyday eye look
|
I already have the natural eye edition beauty book and I really liked it, so I picked up this everyday eye look and I love it as well. You can get this at target for about $5.00. It comes with 12 eyeshadow shades, an eyeliner, and a eyeshadow sponge brush. I never use the brush or the eyeliner. And it also gives you step-by-step directions of how to apply it if you need some help.

Bath & Body Works
Paris Amour Body Mist and Lotion
Secret Wonderland Shower Gel and Lotion |
I got a Buy One Get One Free coupon in the mail so I obviously had to go use it. Who doesn't love Buy One Get One Free?? Once I got in the store they had a Buy 2 Get 1 Free, and But 3 Get 2 Free sale. So I ended up with these 4 products that smell amazing! The sale is still going on so I advise you to go now and pick up some goodies. I got these 4 things for $25. $25 PEOPLE!! One body lotion costs $10.50. Great deal. Go now.

| Suave Professionals Dry Shampoo |
For us skanky girls who don't like to wash our hair everyday, this is the trick. You can get this at Walmart for a few dollars. All you do is spary it on your roots and rub it in. The rubbing it in is just to get rid of the powder that it produces on your hair. Viola! No more oily. Also, if you have hair that doesn't hold curl very well, you can spray this all over your head and it will give your hair some texture that will allow it to hold the curls better.

Revlon ColorStay Foundation-Natural Tan
Hard Candy Fox in a Box Blush-Spicy & Sweet
NYC Eyebrow Kit-Brunette |
If you're looking for a long, lasting foundation I highly recommend Revlon's ColorStay. I love this foundation and it does last all day long. I like to buy my foundation a shade darker than my face because the rest of my body is actually darker than what my face is. I lay in the tanning bed and a lot of the time when I lay I have makeup on, which usually has SPF in it, so my face is never the same color as the rest of me. I also got Hard Candy's Fox in a Box Blush at Walmart in Spicy & Sweet. I had heard a lot of good things about this so I picked it up and instantly fell in love with it. And plus, the packaging is so cute! It's very pigmented, too. Last thing I bought was the NYC eyebrow kit at Target. I've always wanted to try one of these and I could never find one, except online. I'm always apprehensive to order makeup offline because you can never be sure about the color. Luckily I ran across this one today and scooped it up. I think most of us have one good eyebrow, and one retarded one, at least I do. That was my main reason behind this purchase. If you don't know what it is, it comes with a wax, a shadow color, tiny tweezers, and a brush. You dip your brush in the wax, then in the shadow and sweep it across your brow in short strokes and it feels in places they you may have tweezed too thin and it just gives your eyebrow more definition. It won me over. It definitely helped my retarded eyebrow and it was only $3. NYC has pretty good products for really cheap prices. I've always been pleased with them, at least.
Well, that concludes my haul. I hope you enjoy seeing products that I use and my reviews on them. Also, just a tiny disclaimer on my behalf: what works for me might not work for you. Each of us are different. I can only give my opinion based on my experiences with the products and how they work for me.
I will also try to post more often. I have a lot of things I would like to write about. Also, if you have any feedback or suggestions on what you would like to read about feel free to leave a comment and let me know and I will try my best to dedicate a post to your suggestions.
Thanks for reading!
