Beauty Haul 2013

The video above is Part 1 of the two corresponding videos that quickly go over the items I bought. 

The video below is Part 2.

So I went to my mams's for the holidays and we went shopping to buy stuff that we do not need! :D

I ended up getting some things that I have wanted for some time now but never got.

Everything is very inexpensive - the makeup - and I'm so happy with the quality of the things that I got!

The first stop was Walmart

Second stop was Walgreens

Third stop was HEB

Fourth stop was Big Lots:

I bought 2 of these Jordana 12 HR Made to Last Eyeshadow Pencils. The shades are 04 Continuous Almond and 01 Eternal White. The price was $3.99. Once it sets, it lasts! On the packaging itself it indicates if the shadow pencil is matte or shimmer. I LOVE THAT because you aren't guessing what type of finish it is! They are sharpenable. There are several shades.... very pretty. These shadow sticks are very smooth, creamy and VERY PIGMENTED!!

I bought 2 of these Jordana Easyliner For Lips Retractable Pencil. the shades are Silver Lilac and Tawny. Silver Lilac is the purply shade shown. I LOVE IT!! I love these lip liners because they are very pigmented and they stay for a very long period of time. The price is $1.99!! Example: I filled lined and filled in my lips with Silver Lilac and applied a lip gloss over. About an hour later the gloss faded and the lip liner was still holding strong. It was a very pretty lip color! It looked like a stain on my lips. Then a few hours later the lip liner finally faded on the "filling" of my lips but I was still left with the lip line!! I couldn't believe that several hours later I still had the lip line.....Lean like a Chola!!

The photo to the left and below show the Maybelline Color Tattoo in the shades 250 Nude Pink, 25 Bad to the Bronze and a frosty blue shade...I'm sorry Big Lots had a security sticker on the top of it and when I tore it off it pulled the top label off as well. Once I get the color I will insert it here. I got the turquoise color at Big Lots for $1.00!!! I couldn't believe it!! Although this color isn't very pigmented it still is pretty and I couldn't pass it up. The other 2 I got from CVS when they had a BOGO 50% off. The Nude Pink is limited
edition and it was the last one so I had to take it. :D It was not an option to leave it behind.
My favorite out of the bunch is the Nude Pink. It is
just like the Mac cream eyeshadow base in Painterly that I have but the Maybelline CT is so much more cheaper and it reeeallly makes the eyeshadow stay on allll day! IT'S AWESOME!!

These two Rimmel London Vinyl Jelly Gloss Lip Liners I got from Big Lots and I am very impressed with how smooth they are! They are my favorite now! The price was $2.00 for both liners. The shades that I got were 004 Sorbet and 001 Moreish. The Sorbet is the coral colored one. It is so beautiful!! They are just what the packaging says...Glossy! Typically you need some type of moisture on your lips when you use a lip liner because they are so dry but this liner is VERY moisturizing! You can wear them alone. Very silky feeling on the lips.

The pictures below and to the left display the Revlon Colorstay Smoky Shadow Sticks are awesome! I bought three for $2.80 at Big Lots! I could not pass these up either! The price was just too good! The color shades from top to bottom: 201 Torch, 205 Atomic and 210 Flare.
Once they set, they almost do not smudge! :D The packaging states "All day crease proof, fade proof color". We'll see how they perform.

This Jordana 12 HR Made to Last Liquid Eyeliner Pencil in the color 02 Espresso Last. It is awesome!! Once it sets it doesn't smudge unless you rub the hell out of it!! ...... don't rub your eye like that though! Lol! I believe the price was $2.49 but no more than that. VERY PIGMENTED!!! Beautiful pencil!!

The photo to the left shows the tem that I got from Walmart. Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Stress Control Triple Action Toner. It treats acne, eliminates oil and shine, and refreshes and soothes skin. I've been using it for a few days now and it feels really good on the skin! Next is the Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash Pink Grapefruit Foaming Scrub. I haven't used this yet but I'm sure it will be great. Third is the Olay Total Effects Blemish Control Salicylic Acid Acne Cleanser. This doesn't foam up or anything... it doesn't really feel like it's doing anything to my skin. I do know that it is removing my make up but I'm so used to some type of foam or suds and I don't get anything from this product. :D I've been using this as well for the past few nights and so far it's performing well. Last is the Monistat Chafing Relief Powder-Gel. I'm using this as a primer for my face. My makeup does not move at all during the day. I've heard that it has the same active ingredients as the Makeup Forever HD Primer... I think... I know it's a high end product - my sister told me about it and you can check it out on youtube... a lot of people rave about it. I got into a bit more detail in my actual youtube video that is available now to view.

This photo to the right has some products that my mama gave me. I'm so excited for this stash of stuff because it's all things I've been wanting to try but just haven't gotten a chance to.

Photo to the Left: I went to HEB to get these things. ELF Makeup Mist and Set. I've heard a lot of good things about this setting spray so I'm excited to try it. It was only $3.00. Next is the Makeup Lock and Seal. The same thing with this product, I've heard good things about this product. It is like Mac's Fix+

where it "wets" your eyeshadow so it applies more pigmented and allows it to set and stay on your eyes. Last is the NYC Sky Rise Mascara. Haven't tried it yet but heard good things. Will let you know soon my thoughts about the product. :D

Photo to the right: Milani Baked Eyeshadow in 616 Must Have Fuchsia. I got it on sale for $3.79 at Walgreens. I do not use it as an eyeshadow. I actually use it as a blush and it is phenomenal!! LOVE IT!!!

Photo to the Left: Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in 170 Coral Reef. I got this at Big Lots for only $2.00!!! Awesome Deal!!!! It is super pigmented and feels so smooth on the lips. Not sticky at all. It looks beautiful on top of the Rimmel Liner from above in Sorbet.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog! I really appreciate it. Please check out my video on Youtube to see me chit chat a little more about the items that are seen here.
