Recent Beauty Hauls

My sister and I recently got together and did another makeup clean out/ swap.
This was my haul from that! (I already have the Nudes.)
*Necklace in pic not part of haul, from Walmart (2014).

I haven't used the Smokes or Brights yet (See Challenge mentioned in previous blog) but I really like the Blushed Nudes and I think it may be better quality than the regular Nude palette.

From what I can find the Brights nor the Smokes are avalible currently, but here's the link to maybelline current shadows:

                                                      The Blushed Nudes Palette is new!

November 16th eye shadow palette (by Markwins Cosmetics) is something that's been in my collection for quite a while, but I never reach for it. My sister challenged me to use everyday for the upcoming week.

I'll share more about this next week!


Have a great day!

October Empties

I didn't have many empties this time around either!

1) Almay Oil Free Gentle Makeup Remover~  I had an Almay makeup remover prior to this, that my sister had given me. I don't know if it was a different one or they changed formulas since then but it did a better job. I purchased mine at Walmart In August, simply because I needed a makeup remover and this was all my local Walmart carried. It does the job about 80% of the time, but generally has an issue removing eyeliner and takes a bit of work. I accidentally got this in my eye twice and it burns like nothing I've ever felt before! I have switched makeup remover products and don't plan to repurchase this.


2) Beauty Protector Protect & Detangle~ I got this sample in my August Birchbox and it was finally empty on Halloween (awesome for a sample), and I generally used it 2 -3 times a week. I'm sad it's empty since I just spent my BB Points on the Smashbox kit. I've got a different detangler I'm using currently, but nothing has compared to this. I will repurchase when I get enough points!!

3) Wet 'n Wild Mega Volume Mascara~  finally used most of this up, but now it's getting dry and time to toss. For a long time this was my favorite mascara. Because of Birchbox I'm trying out several different ones but I think my current favorite is from Stila. I don't think I'll run out of mascara anytime in the near future, but I would definitely repurchase this (especially at only $3). 




Have a great day!

November Birchbox

This month Birchbox released their own cosmetic line (Love of Color, or LOC for short) and each box contained either a lipstick or eye shadow stick. I chose the berry lipstick shade.
I'm not a huge fan of perfume surprises, but this one isn't too bad, just a little strong for me.
The Balm Frat Boy blush is a beautiful color,  the hair serum is good, and not to heavily scented, and lastly the body wash I've yet to use but has a very masculine scent in the bottle.

While I love the formula of this lipstick I expected the shade to be far darker than it is on me. Still a pretty color, just not what I pictured.

Have you received your box(es) yet? Are we box twins?


Have a great day!

I've been in a blah mood lately, and my skin is breaking out like crazy, so I only wore makeup once this week (today, top left pic).

Have a great day!
