Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer

I got this after a few girls had talked about it, and were raving about it. I got mine at wallgreens for $7.99 I believe I paid for it. I got mine in the shade radiant.

I tried it 2 different ways.

1) I put it where I had dark eye circles. Then I put foundation on over it. Once I finished, I noticed there was no real difference.
2) I put it on over my foundation. I always put my foundation all over my face including under my eye. Once I applied it over my foundation I did notice the difference. It brighten up my eye area making it appear more bright.

Then I also put it along my smile lines lol to help that area look a bit lighter as well.

Pro's
  • Blends easily
  • Highlights well
  • Good packaging, since it has a brush on the end for easy application.
Cons:
  • It will prob run out fast, I don't think you get a ton of product.
  • Wasn't as "highlighting" as I thought it was going to be.

Overall I'm going to add this into my daily makeup routine :)



 I can notice a slight highlighted look around my whole eye area.

Micheal Kors runway watch

Look at the pretty I found. Im in love with it. A pretty rose gold MK watch. It is a boyfriend style watch. It takes a bit of time to get used to it, due to the size and weight, but its GORGEOUS!


It is all rose gold with pretty crystals for the entire center dial.

Loreal True Match Lumi foundation review

So after debating on this foundation I went ahead and got it. I have given it a few days, and I have to say I HATE this foundation lol.

As soon as I apply it, and look at my whole face I look like a shine ball haha! So I wait a few mins to powder my face. Then it takes a hint of the shine away. Then about 5 hours later my foundation is fading away very unevenly, and I look shiny. I don't have oily skin either. I touch my face during the day and it just feels like I put a light oil on my face :/ No good.

So here it goes.

Pros:
  • It does give a medium coverage. It hide my flaws.
  • Also does not sink into fine lines making them more visible.
  • Very easy to apply with the pump, and very bendable.

Cons:
  • Its fades off fast.
  • Makes you appear shiny all over, unless you do a powder, and even then it still comes through.
  • It makes it appear as you put a highlight all over your face.. so not good. Or maybe a dewy finish all over.
  • My face felt oily all day long, when I would touch my face. It felt like it never truly dried, even though it did. 
  • After you apply your powder, my powder brush starts to get tacky. From the foundation never truly drying. So my brush bristles hold onto the foundation, then they get my pressed powder  onto them, and it messes them up. lol I hope I explained that correctly, I attached a pic.
Overall I will not use this again, unless I have ran out of my foundation , and I need a backup. So I will keep it and use as a backup or maybe to use as a highlight on my cheek bone.





 These are pictures I took about 10 mins after I put the foundation on. Shine city!
 No powder on, just the foundation. Then I apply powder to set it, and take away the shine. I think its just way to shiny to use as a foundation.

MyGlam bag September

I was excited to get this bag. I loved the preview. So what did I get??

I got the black cosmetic bag, but this could be used as a clutch type bag as well. Very well made.

Then I got the smudge brush. Which I think is more of an eyeshadow brush then a brush for smudging. Soho brand. I was actually just looking at these online so I'm pumped I got one.

Then Jane lipgloss. Cute but its tacky :( it is not a very smooth gloss, but I might be able to work with it. It also has a lot of pigment.

Then I got the Carols Daughters repairing split end sealer- opened up to smell it, and it smells great! It claims 93% fewer split ends instantly! so I'm going to have to give this a try and let you know.

Then got the circus nail polish. Bright neon purple lol but again great for toes! the neon pink I got last month I cant wear :( I put it on and in sunlight it looked neon orange! yikes!

We also got a coupon for $20.00 off just fab shoes! score! I'm for sure using that!

Then a mirabella eyeshadow. Super pretty bronzy brown shade with a tad of shimmer.

I'm very happy with this months bag!

Kohls jewlery haul

I love shopping for jewlery at kohls. I always find great deals. Im in love with the candies line. Such cute girly things. I always get so many compliments on the peices as well.

This is what I got.

 The earrings have these super light pink bead, so it doesn't show well on the pic.
 Then got this cute pinkish necklace, more taupe/pink.


 This super cute stretchy ring.
I always find a good deal at kohls, then along with all the 15%-20% deals they email out, its always a good deal.

Have a great weekend dolls, I hope you enjoyed the post.

Haul time! Nordstroms rack and Target and kohls

It felt so good to go shopping the other day with my good friend Shay. We went out to lunch at Don Pablos then started to shop.
We started at nordstroms rack! I got some amazing deals!
 Score! Urban decay! $21.00 Then I also got SKECHERS shoes for myself, a pair for my daughter Lexi.
 I love this frame. I have been looking for a pretty silver frame. $9.97
 Shoes! and there black and pink. My fav color combo $47.00
 This kit has the prettiest shades! I will do a separate post.
 Stopped at target and got my fav facial cleanser, and picked up some makeup remover wipes. Giving these ponds wipes a try.
 Then I stopped at kohls and found this! a earring holder! I have been looking for something like this for awhile now. It has holds all around for 3 tiers. The only thing I don't like is that it will get a bit cluttered which I hate. But for now this works well for me. It swivels as well. The bottom holds 2 of my pink watches and a pretty cross bracelet.



 Im in total love with this new watch. I have wanted a Micheal kors watch forever and got this one :) at nordstroms rack.


Haul time! Nordstroms rack and Target

Here is my new video :) Hope you enjoy. I will do a blog post on what I go as well.

Maybelline color tattoo barely beige

This is one of my new fav's! I use this as a highlight only. The color doesn't look that great all over the lid unless you use another shade to fade into it.
But the highlight alone, is such a pretty shade.

The staying power is great, and easily removes with just soap and water at the end of the day.
