Haul | Drug Store Goodies

Hey loves, just wanted to share with you the new items I picked up. There are a lot of new things coming out and I couldn`t resist getting some a try. The first things I picked up were two new mascaras from Maybelline; which makes my favorite drug store mascaras ever! I got the The Colossal Smoky Eyes in Blackest Smoke and Blue Blaze. I definitely can`t wait to try out these and see how great they on my lashes. I haven`t seen or heard much about them but I`m excited to see the results. I also picked my first L`Oreal Colour Riche Smokey Eyes Quad in So Over It! I`ve been waiting ages to try one of these and I finally was able to decide on one I really liked.

   

 

Next I picked up two new lipsticks from Wet N Wild. I went with two shades that are perfect for Fall/Winter. The ones I went with are Spiked With Rum and Ravin` Raisin. I also was able to pick up my first Milani lipsticks. I`m a real huge fan of this brand and I`ve heard such great things about these lipsticks that I needed to add them to my collection. The colors I decided to go with were more vampy and great for this time of the year but aren`t limited to just Fall/Winter. The shades I went with are Plumrose, Uptown Mauve and Sangria.

 

Lastly, I picked up the Soap & Glory Hand Food. I`ve always heard good things about this brand and seeing the cold winter months are upon us and decided to it a try. My hands are becoming super dry and hopefully these will keep them super hydrated. I also picked up two new Essie polishes in Mind Your Mittens and Sable Collar.

   

I`m definitely excited to try out all these new goodies out and incorporate these in my daily makeup. Have you guys had a chance to try out any of these items yet?

Review Thursday | L'Oreal Orange You Jealous?

Hey loves, I haven't done a review in months but I wanted to get back into it. I wanted to share my thoughts on the L'Oreal Orange You Jealous? polish from the drug store. This is such a beautiful color for Spring and Summer. This polish is opaque in just 2 coats. The first coat did apply streaky but once you put the second coat on, it evened out nicely. It is super shiny and doesn't require a top coat. This polish has a Creme finish, which I love. There was minimal chipping after a week and I didn't use a top coat. There was slight fading on the tips from texting and using the keyboard daily. Lastly, when I removed it came off very easily. And it did not stain my nails. I definitely recommend this polish if your looking for a beautiful orange-coral polish. It is easy accessible at many drug stores including Walmart, Target and Shoppers Drug Mart.

Hey ladies, just wanted to share with you some new drugstore goodies I recently picked up.

So I went to exchange them for colors that I didn’t already have. I picked up Permanent Kaki and Bronze Divine. I can’t wait to try out these colors. Lastly, I picked up a new Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Sweetheart and I’m super excited to give this color a try. Keep an eye out for FOTD posts featuring these new items!
