11-27-12 Collective Haul

hey u! so for the past couple of months, or so, i've been hauling a few makeup items. i've really been into blushes lately, especially peach blushes. but it has been challenging trying to find the perfect peach blush because most peach blushes that i've seen and/or purchased have NOT been peachy. for example, my most recent blush purchase was last Friday when i bought the "peach" blush by NYX at Ulta. well let me tell you, that blush is NOT peach, at all! i was very disappointed! don't get me wrong, it is a pretty color, it's just not peachy. other 'peach' blushes that i've purchased have been kinda peachy or corally, which is ok cuz i love coral blushes too! this haul picture shows the five blushes that i've recently purchased. my favorite one out of the five definitely has to be Secret It-Girl by Essence, which i got at Ulta. it gives your cheeks a nice peachy glow. that's why i've been using this blush a lot lately. and for $2.99 USD, you can't go wrong!

aside from the blushes, i also purchased nine lip products, three eyeshadow palettes, two nail files, and some glitter. PURPLE glitter! =) perfect for the holiday season! and any other time of the year!
until next time... thanks for stopping by!

My Top 10 MAC Lipsticks!

hey u! so i've always been a lipstick lover...i just can't seem to get enough of them! especially when it comes to MAC lipsticks. they're absolutely amazing and they smell sooo good, even though they're a lil' pricey. but i still love them! they have a variety of colors to choose from, which is a plus! and they also have a variety of finishes like satin, matte, lustre, frost, cremesheen, glaze, and amplified creme. so you could say MAC lipsticks are my all time favorite lipsticks, along with wet n' wild lipsticks! with that being said, i'm excited to share with you, my top 10 favorite MAC lipsticks at the moment.

the lipsticks appear to be glossy but they're not. the sun was kinda melting them since i placed them by the window. i was just trying to get the best lighting but i think i'll have to find a better spot, lol.
