Great Deal! Cute brush set

I always like to look for good deals on beauty products on ebay for my readers. Here is this brush set for US $1.99 and free shipping. I have this same exact brush set but in Blue.

Made my order about an hour ago

and it was just marked shipped. It will probably arrive early next week. I am having it shipped to my place on campus. I am thinking of taking out my sew-in.

I can't wait! For those who do not know what i am talking about. I am referring to the Gala Wig and HZ7654 half wig http://xebonyeyezx.blogspot.com/2011/10/ordering-wig-and-half-wig-this-week.html

I think i am going to put a stop to this wig/ half wig business. When these two arrive i will officially be an owner of 8 wigs. I think that is about enough. I now need to purchase some mannequin heads to store them. Right now they are all hanging on some type of object at home.

Ordering a wig and a half wig this week

Freetress Gala

Sensationell Half wig HZ7065

Ordering them from divatress.com because i found them cheaper on there compared to other hair websites.

Beyonce with dark hair

I love Beyonce, i think she is one of the most beautiful women i have ever seen. I love these pictures of her with dark hair, the curls are amazing.

10 Pairs of Black False eyelashes plus free glue

http://www.ebay.com/itm/110747144215?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_1889wt_1163

I won this on ebay ladies and gentlemen. The first ever bid i have ever won on ebay and i have been on ebay for pretty much a year. I guess i didn't have much competition. I was impressed by how fast i received this item considering that these sellers in China can take almost a month to get me my package. I payed $4.15 cents for them and the shipping was free. It also came with free glue, it probably won't last but i will purchase some at walmart sometime. At first i was a bit scared of the lashes considering that i have had trouble applying false eyelashes plus the lashes looked so big and unnatural in the package. I didn't want spider lashes. But i actually watched the "How to apply fake eyelashes" video i posted in a previous entry and gave them a try today and i think i did a good. I need more practice but it looks well and not like spider lashes. It is amazing what some fake lashes can do to the face. I think i will be kissing mascara good bye. 

I also ordered another 10 pair from another seller but i think i prefer the others. Anyways this is what they look like.

Thinking of trying this ombre thing

I was browsing the Victoria's secret website today and came across this picture of Chanel Iman and i love the whole ombre thing she has going on. I have never colored my hair because i am too afraid of color but i think this is something i can work with.

What i think about Scarlett Lace front so far

Okay, so i got impatient and opened up the scarlett package even though i know i can't wear it until i take out these extensions.  So i took it out, cut the lace and brushed out the curls a bit because it looked thin. Let's just say this hair sheds A LOT. I did wrap up my hair and put on a wig cap and it looked strange probably because my hair was bulky underneath but it is a good wig if you can ignore all the shedding. It probably will tangle. I hope to get a few wears out of it. I am also going to trim it up a bit because it is too long on me.

I haven't worn the wig out yet since i have extensions but since it sheds a lot straight out of the pack i think things will will get worse (much much worse). I probably won't re-purchase. I am focusing on saving up to get one of those lace wigs from ebay i blogged about earlier. They are probably better quality.

Also i will probably make a video giving my honest review on it. I have only seen one or two youtube beauty guru's who were honest about the shedding and tangling.

How to apply fake eyelashes

I think i finally get it now after watching this video.

Face of the day 10/8/2011

Today i didn't go anywhere but i still decided to do my make up. I attempted to put on the faux eyelashes but as usual i fail. The guru's on youtube make it seem so easy but it never works out for me. I guess i need to keep on practicing. Anyways i actually tried on the Noor Kajal Kohl Arabian eye liner. I give it two thumbs up. As yo can see my eyebrows need help.

So here we go:

Face:

Maybelline Matte Mousse Foundation in Cocoa

Maybelline dream matte powder in Hazelnut

Eyes:

Noor Kajal Kohl Arabian eyeliner

Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush Mascara in Black

Milani Runway Eyes Fashion Eye Shadows in the Haute Couture Palette the 2nd purple shade.

Lips:

Carmex

NYC Cosmetics Lipstick in Blue Rose.

In need of a face mask treatment

I don't know if it is because it is that time of the month but my skin has just been looking awful for the past couple of days. I don't know what is going on because it looked great last week. I felt like my dark spots/blemishes were disappearing and then BAM i look at the mirror and they seem more emphasized. My go to face mask is the Mint Julep Masque by Queen Helene. I ordered one from amazon and had it shipped to my house so i do not have it here with me. I can not wait to go home in two days and give myself a much needed skin treatment. But until then i will just pile on that foundation so i won't feel like crying whenever i look in the mirror.

In need of an eyebrow intervention

Last week i went to the mall and the lady who does the eyebrow threading wasn't at the usual stand. There was a sign that said they moved to the food court. Went down there, didn't see them. Hopefully they are there when i go back because i eyebrows look a mess.
I am just not feeling too hot these days, my skin is acting up.

Gorgeous Lace wigs i am eyeing on ebay

Noor Kajal Kohl Arabian Eyeliner Makeup Natural Herbal

I was looking for an eyeliner that would give me that dark, sexy, intense look and a lot of these regular eye pencils weren't cutting it for me. So three days ago on ebay i typed kohl into the search and this came up in the results.  I saved it under my "Watch list." because i wasn't sure if i wanted to make the purchase but i actually made the purchase today. I don't really have a review for you all because i just ordered it 2 minutes ago lol but i read a wikipedia article on kohl eyeliner and it hit me that kohl eyeliner is very popular in my tribe/ethnic group. When i was a baby my grandmother used to put it around my eyes. I am a Dagomba girl and a lot of our traditions are pretty close to the Hausas..a very popular ethnic group in Western Africa. My paternal grandmother was a Hausa woman. Anyways i can't wait to receive it.

Here is the link: it was 3.99 with 1.99 shipping http://www.ebay.com/itm/110699264355?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_8713wt_1163

Edited to add my personal  pictures:

New Belly Ring from Ebay seller in China

Okay, last year around this time i finally decided to get my navel pierced. It was extremely cute and seemed to be going well/healing well until the 5th month when i developed some bump that just couldn't go away on the bottom hole. 2 months later i developed another bump on the top hole so i ended up taking it out. I took it out in June but prior to that i ordered a belly ring (the pink one pictured at the top) and after it arrived and i saw it, i just thought "This is so cute!" i want to get my belly button redone so i can wear it." I do plan on getting it redone. I took some pictures holding the ring against my tummy.It was actually very cheap on ebay. Like a dollar something with a dollar shipping. Of course since it was being shipped all the way from China it took about 3 weeks. Here is a link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/BUTTERFLY-CZ-BELLY-NAVEL-RING-GEM-CHAIN-DANGLE-B473-/300590037740?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item8bb3fd4081#ht_1717wt_905
