My Latest Obsession

Well...
Up until yesterday, I hadn't spent any money on makeup...ZERO!! But then yesterday happened...and I fell off the wagon! BUT, I didn't fall too far...

So it seems that I have my own makeup styles that come and go in waves: I get so fascinated with one look that I keep doing variations of it until I get hooked on something else. Right now I'm loving neutral eyes with a super color saturated pout! While I probably have 100 different lippie (combination of lipsticks, glosses and stains) I just couldn't help myself yesterday! Walking around Five Below, I ran across a Black Radiance display and immediately fell in love!! I've always heard great things about this brand but have never tried them. At $2.99 a pop, I figured I'd give em a shot! I bought an Ice Angel Lipgloss in Scarlet and a Liquid Lip Color in Succulent Plum!







Then, I just so happened to stroll into Ulta where they were having 40% off NYX products...glosses were like $3.59! I was going to get two until I remembered that I had a $3.50 off a $10 coupon on my phone...that's almost like getting one free! How stupid would I be if I didn't use it??? So I bought an Xtreme Lip Cream in Buttery Nude, a Glam Gloss Aqua Luxe in Do The Hustle and a Soft Matte Lip Cream in San Paulo!



All in all, 5 glosses for less than $15! Not too shabby, huh??

Can't wait to try these out and hopefully do a review! Until next time...

Super Sale!!!

Last weekend Old Navy had an extra 50% off their clearance and even though I was only there for a hot second, I cleant (yes, cleant) up...four items for $11 and some change!!! Here's the low down:

First up, this Teal Oversized Sweater! Unfolded it looks like a blob with sleeves but I swear it's cute on!!

$4.49!!

Next up, these Red Skinny Jeans! I wanted these when they first came out in early fall but my granny always told me that if the price ain't right to wait a while and come back, if your size is still there when they go on sale then it was meant to be!! I am sooo glad I waited!!

$4.49!!

Next up, this Hot Pink Belted Tunic! I'm envisioning this with some funky colored leggings and some sky-high platforms...

98 cents!!

And finally, this amazing Brown Dress (with rouched shoulders and a hi-low hem)!! When I find some free time I plan on adding some beading and embroidary!

98 cents!!

What good deals have you gotten lately??







Boom!!!

I wanted to try a plum-y  *burgundy lip but wasn't  sure how I'd like it...I decided that starting off sheer would be best. So I went to get Sephora Brand's lip liner in Pleasantly Plum and their lipgloss in Night Out. Everyone knows how much I hate Sephora inside JCPenney stores but there's no way in hell I was driving all the way to Novi...so off I went! I hit the sale wall first and that's when I saw them: $15 tokidoki Brilliante Glitter Eyeliners on sale for $2.77!!!!! I could NOT pass this up!! I bought 3 of the 5 colors they had: Adios Apple (purple), Skeletro (navy) and Liberty (teal)...#SuperCute

*****UPDATE*****   *****UPDATE*****  *****UPDATE*****  *****UPDATE*****

Since this post I have worn the liner and gloss on a nite out for martinis in Ann Arbor...paired with a teal blazer, simple black dress and grape suede pumps, I was called stylish by our server!! *cheeze*

Quickly...

I know it's after the fact but I am BEYOND excited!!! LimeCrime had a 24 hour appreciation sale yesterday and were giving 55% off all of their Magic Dust Eyeshadows and Primers. I have yet to try anything from them but have only heard good things! Their shadows are loose and come in little jars. I love the names of each color and on the website have fables to go with each one. The shadows usually run for $14 but with the discount I got two at $6.30 each, plus $5 flat rate shipping, I spent a whopping $17.60!!! I can't wait to try them out but in the meantime and inbetween time, here are some swatches from their site:

Diva, a warm metallic bronze

Dragon Scales, terracotta with green duochrome
