BH Cosmetics 66 Lip Palette
Blush Palette

Dresses from Ebay

The dresses I purchased early last week have arrived and this is how they look on me. I mentioned how scared I was about how the blue peplum dress would fit but it fits perfectly. I ordered two more dresses from the same seller on ebay and they should be here in a week and a half I am estimating. The seller's name on ebay is queendesign. Check them out because they have really cute stuff.

Green Eyeshadow Look





I think I am getting better at this (Blending eyeshadow). What do you all think? Where should I Improve? Oh I also put on some blue lipstick from what BH cosmetics lip palette I own.

Summer bag from Target



A couple of weeks ago target was having their free summer giveaway bag with samples and I happened to catch it this time. Yesterday I received it in the mail.  In the bag was samples of shampoos/conditioners, sun block, a scrub from Aveeno, a small sample of Revlon's lip butter and some discount coupons. I kinda wish They gave us the full lip butter instead of a tiny sample but I am impressed with everything.

New Orders for the week from Amazon


Holika Holika Pore Clearing Petit BB Cream with Tea Tree Oil and Sebum Control Powder 30ML

I was a bit hesitant to order this at first because I wasn't sure what shade it was but if it comes up being too light it is okay because I only plan to wear it under foundation. It has a lot of attractive features such as the oil controlling and the tea tree oil. I have oily skin and I need something like this. Altogether with shipping it was 10.49, it will probably take me a while to receive this product because the seller is apparently in Korea. I am praying it comes within the next two weeks.

E.l.f. Studio Stipple Brush elf

I needed a brush to apply my foundation, kind of tired of using my fingers. Altogether with shipping it was 7.49

Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay & Apple Cider Vinegar (Organic)

So these two products go hand in hand. You are used to mix the ACV with the mask for it to be effective. I was trying to order another Queen Helene mint julep mask because I am all out but I came across the indian healing clay mask and I have read a lot of people rave about how good it is so I decided to give it a try. Apparently it is like the Queen Helene mask but it is much better. My skin has been acting crazy this week,  have broken out all over the left side of my face and I need help.

New Orders





As always I just keep on buying (somebody stop me!). Anyways purchased them from two sellers in China. They were marked shipped and I expect them to arrive in 2-3 weeks. I am so anxious I keep checking the tracking #. With shipping everything came out to 99 dollars. I am kind of scared about how the blue dress will look since I am shapeless but we will see.

 Here are the links if anyone is interested.

Shoes

As of a week ago. Missing a few because they are up at my apartment at school.

Recent Pics of Me

Sidenote: I repurchased Bree again but in 1b/30! I decided to take a risk and get a different color other than just regular black. I don't know if you can see it in the pics but it looks great.

Curl Formers



Tonight I was browsing through the store of the seller I purchased the blush palette from on ebay and I came across these curl formers. At first I was confused about how it worked so I rushed off to youtube and looked for a tutorial and found a few. Looked very simple and easy. All in all i payed 5 something for this 18 piece set. I can't wait for it to arrive.

New Blush Set


Today for the first time I purchased blush. I have always been kind of apprehensive about blush because I thought since I was darker skinned there was no point of it but I changed my mind after looking at pictures of black models and celebrities wearing blush (and looking damn great I must add).




 I decided to purchase a palette from ebay. It is from a seller in China so It will arrive in about two weeks. It was inexpensive too $9.83 (this is including shipping). I have ordered from this seller before and had no issues so I am expecting the same results this time around. If you are interested here is the link :http://www.ebay.com/itm/310340013614?_trksid=p5197.c0.m619#ht_4596wt_1173.

Freetress Gena Lacefront


I have been eyeing this lacefront for awhile then on Tuesday I stopped hesitating and pressed that purchase button. As usual I ordered it from divatress.com in the color 1B. It is gorgeous but I do suggest pulling out some of your edges in the front to make the hairline look more natural. This is definitely a special occasion wig, not for everyday wear. All the details are in the video I recorded today.
Here are some pictures:



Update: Threw this one out, didn't last. No longer they discontinued it.

MAC Girl About Town Lipstick

This is the first ever MAC lipstick that I have ever owned and I must say I love it! Very moisturizing, soft, nice packaging and no weird smells like some lipsticks I have owned. I will be purchasing more lipsticks from MAC.
Me with it on.
