Drug Store Haul!

I recently placed an order on eyeslipsface.com and picked up a few things from the drug store. Most of this haul is e.l.f. products. I'll start with the e.l.f. products and then show the other drug store items that I got. There will be swatches of all the products. It was hard to get pictures of some of the swatches cause of how light the product was but I did my best. 
So let's jump right in!

e.l.f. essentials shimmering facial whip

These are $1 each and can be used for pretty much anything. I purchased Spotlight, Lilac Petal, Golden Peach and Pink Lemonade. I got them to try and use as blushes (minus spotlight). However I am curious to see how they work on the eyelids. 

e.l.f. studio baked blush

These blushes are $3 each and I purchased it in the shade Peachy Cheeky. When my package arrived this was actually broken. It was in so many pieces. They sent me a new one and thankfully it arrived undamaged! I have worn this blush once and I do like the way it looks on my cheeks. There is some shimmer in it. 

e.l.f. studio blush

These blushes are also only $3 each. I purchased the color Peachy Keen. This is more on the coral side with I like. I am a fan of coral blushes. There is also some shimmer in this blush. The only way I can think to describe it is shiny. I have worn this a few times and I like it. It stayed on for my whole shift at work so the staying power isn't too bad. 

e.l.f. studio HD blush

This is the item I was most excited about! I am happy I finally got my hands on one! These HD blushes are only $3 also. I purchased the shade Superstar. I haven't tried this out yet but it is very pigmented. I have seen some reviews on YouTube where girls did demos with these blushes and it looks as though a little goes a long way. It is recommended to use the e.l.f. studio small stipple brush to apply it and unfortunately I ordered the regular stipple brush and it is way to large to use. I'll need to purchase the small stipple brush and I really want to get my hands on the shade Headliner.

e.l.f. studio golden bronzer

This golden bronzer is also only $3. I used it the other day and I must say it is pretty shimmery. You definitely have to be careful when using this. I definitely need to work with this bronzer some more to see if I can get it to work the way I want it too. I don't like too much shimmer in my bronzer because that just does not look natural. The first swatch is all the colors swirled together and then under is each color on its own.

e.l.f. studio cream liners

These cream liners are only $3. Before I purchased these too ( punk purple and teal tease) I only owned one, the black one. I absolutely loved it so I figured I would give the other colors a try also. When my package arrived the purple was completely melted. No matter what I did it would not dry out to be use. Thankfully the sent me new ones! I can't wait to try these out with some fun looks. 

wet n wild coloricon bronzer

This was $3.93 at my Walmart. I got the shade Reserve your Cabana. I have heard everyone talking about this bronzer so I decided to finally pick it up. I really like it. I have been wearing it as a highlight ever since I bought it. 

black radiance palette

I believe that black radiance is by the same company that makes wet n wild. These palettes are more expensive then the wet n wild ones. This palette retails for $6.99 at my Rite Aid and it is in the shade Urban Jungle. I had been eyeing it for a long time. When I went in the other day I noticed they had a little "gift set" and it included this palette and a mascara for only $4.99! The colors are super pigmented. I will definitely do a look using this palette!

lippes!

Wet n Wild  Mega last lipstick- $1.99! I got the shade Red Velvet for an upcoming post because I was lacking red lipstick!

N.Y.C round lipstick- $.93! This is in the shade Chiffon. I really like this color. It is not super pigmented but looks nice on my lips!
ChapStick- $.99! Haha, this was just something fun I picked up. I got cake batter and velvet cupcake. These seriously taste like it too!! 

What have you picked up lately at the drug store?!

Tiny Drug Store Haul!

^ Here are some goodies I picked up the other day at the drug store! ^

I was excited to see that my local grocery store has an e.l.f display that they just put out! I picked up 2 liquid eyeliners, one in Copper and one in Stardust. I wore copper yesterday to work and it was very pretty! It said on my whole shift and we were outside in the heat! I got a soothing lip balm in Strawberry Creme. It smells soooo good! I also just pick up another Wet gloss lash and brow clear mascara because I ran out of mine. I use both sides of this for my eyebrows. All of these products were a dollar each. 

Finally! I have purchased something from the Wet N Wild Fergie collection! I picked up the Take on the Day eyeshadow primer. I am excited to try this out. It cost $5.29. I also picked up my holy grail mascara.The Wet N Wild Megalength mascara in very black and in WATERPROOF!!! That's right the makeup gods have answered my prayers!!! My holy grail mascara now comes in waterproof!!!!!! I can't tell you how excited I was when I walked over to the display and saw that!! This mascara is usually $1.99 at Rite-Aid but at Walgreen's it was $3.29, I was not thrilled about that. 

Lastly I picked up the Revlon Super Lustrous lipgloss in Peach Petal. It is such a beautiful nude color and I plan to pair it with my Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Soft Nude. This on clearance for $4.29, it is originally $8.49. I do believe that these lipglosses are unfortunately being discontinued so I am so glad I was able to get my hands on this shade. My store only had 2 left!

New Products!

Hello everyone!
So recently I have purchased some new beauty products, exciting! I wanted to share them with you. I will be trying them out for a few weeks then I will be doing a full review on most of them! This is pretty much my first impression of the products.
So with that said, let's get started!

~Yes to Cucumbers Hypoallergenic Facial Towelettes~

They were $5.99 for 40 pre-moistened towelettes. I've never used this brand before, I usually just grab the cheap store brand makeup removal towelettes. I have a lot of problems with different brands burning my face because I do have eczema. So we shall see if this brand is a keeper.

~Maybelline New York Dream Fresh BB cream~

I am very excited to finally try out a BB cream! I got mine in the shade medium. It costed a little more than $7 at Wal-Mart. It is 1 fl. oz. When I tested it out in the store for color it blended right in so I am hoping it looks good when I apply it all over my face. I will be trying this out for a week or two then I will be doing a full review!

~New York Color Smooth Skin Perfecting Primer~

I also purchased this at Wal-Mart for close to $3! It is 1 fl. oz. I have used it twice under my Sephora Instant Radiance Foundation. So far I like it, I was nervous when I first squeezed it into my hand because it looks like there is shimmer in it and it is like a silver color, but when I put it on my face it all blended in. So far so good with this product, and great price!

~New York Color Smooth Skin Pressed Face Powder~

Another NYC product, it was also around $3! It is in the color translucent. I got this to set the BB cream with because I already have a powder that I set my foundation with (which I will mention next). I've never used a translucent powder before so I am curious to see how this one will work. Mainly because I have tan skin, so I don't want it to make me look ghostly. We shall see how it works, expect a review for this one also!

~Rimmel London Stay Matte Powder~

I picked this up at Wal-Mart (wow, I go there too much!) I paid $3.97! I got it in the color Creamy Beige. This is the first time I have found a powder to match my skin tone. After paying $22 at Sephora for a powder that was way too dark I was excited to find a powder that was way cheaper and match my skin tone!

~Maybelline New York Baby Lips~

This was around $3. This is not my first baby lips product, however it is the first one I've picked up that is tinted. I recently just finished a baby lips in Peppermint, it was just a clear one. This one is in peach kiss. It is a nude color and I thought it would be perfect to wear on top of my nude lipsticks rather than just using a regular clear lip balm. I'm curious to see if I will like the concept of a tinted lip balm.






That's all the products that I have recently picked up. I will definitely be posting full reviews of the BB cream,  the translucent powder, and the Rimmel Stay Matte powder once I have had a chance to test them all out.
