Swag Shoppin: NYX Trios

Hey ladies, here are the NYX Trios I picked up from CherryCulture. I picked up 3 of them: 37 Shangri-La, 41 Anti Diva & 45 Hippie-Chic. I've been wanting these trios for like the last 2 years, when I first got into makeup, but could never find them. I can't wait to create some looks with these. And share my thoughts on them.

Look out for the last part of this haul in my post tomorrow!

Swag Shopin: NYX Lips

Hey ladies, is the next set of items I picked up from Cherry Culture. I picked up my first Black Label lipstick in 153 Sangria. I also picked up 2 lip pencils: 844 Deep Red & 852 Pumpkin. I already love the NYX lip pencils and honestly want to own all the colors they have. So you will see me purchasing more of these great lip pencils.

Full reviews will be posted over the next few weeks and months after I get a chance to try out everything.

Look out for the next post tomorrow!

Swag Shoppin: Milani Baked Blushes

Hey ladies, I ordered 3 of the baked blushes from Milani from Cherry Culture. Milani is so hard to find in Canada in my opinion, I've only ever seen the eyeshadows and that's about it really. So I had to grab these, they were on sale as well which was a plus for me. I can't wait to give these I try, never used a baked blush before so hopefully I like it.

The colors I picked up were:

07 Fantastico Mauve

08 Corallina 

09 Red Vino

I do plan on getting a few more of them if I like these. I will be doing swatches of the products when I do a review of them. 

Stay tuned to see what else I got from Cherry Culture!

Swag Shoppin: NYX Caribbean Collection

Hey ladies, you know I had to pick up 2 of the NYX The Caribbean Collection palettes. They have 5 colors and they are stunning. I'm pretty sure there is 9 in total and I will be getting the other colors, gotta have anything and everything that has to do with the Caribbean lol. The ones I picked up were I Dream of St Lucia & I Dream of Aruba. The first one has some super bright colors and I can't wait to give them a try out. And the other one is more neutral but it does have a couple bright colors as well. Honestly, I can't wait to get around to making tutorials with these palettes. Especially since I figured out my light and everything now. So look out for new tutorials :)

Stay tuned to see what else I got!

Swag Shoppin: NYX Round Lipsticks

Hey ladies, I'm back with the first part of my haul from Cherry Culture. In total I picked up 18 new items that I can't wait to try out and I'm starting out with the NYX Round Lipsticks. I've been wanting to try these for sometime now. But in Canada they range from $6-9 and I wasn't about to pay for that when I can get it cheaper online. Anyways I picked up 4 colors: 3 are in the coral/red/pink family and the other one looks pretty nude. I haven't done swatches or anything. I will be reviewing each color at a later date. Once I get to try them out and anything.

Well the colors I picked up were:

583A Haute Melon

616 Watermelon

637 Rose

643 Femme

I can't wait to give these a try. Heard and read so many good reviews on them.

Stay tuned to see what else I got!

Hey ladies, a few weeks ago I ordered off Cherry Culture. This is when they were having sales on NYX & Milani items. I picked up a ton of NYX products and the Milani Baked Blushes.

I can't wait to order from them again.

Anyways so I traded it for the 40 Green With Envy palette instead. As well I picked up to Rimmel London quads cause they were on sale for $4.99. First one is 017 Dark Signature and the other one is 019 Sun Safari. I can't wait to try out these new Rimmel quads, they look so pretty.

Have a blessed weekend!

NOTD: 07.09.11 - Super Late!!

Hey ladies, I kept forgetting to write up a post on my Mani and Pedi I got a couple of weeks ago. Me and my girl went to get on nails and feet done. Honestly I haven't done it since a week before my princess was born. Like over 2 years, such a long time to wait. Anyways it was a great price, it only cost $60. That's the pedi, mani and gel nails all together. Just in Calgary alone I was use to paying $60 on getting gel nails done. So I think I'm going to be keeping my nails on for a long time. I have to get a fill this weekend or next week and to get it filled starts at $10, which is a plus! On my toes I'm rocking OPI Ogre-the-Top Blue, really loving this color. Currently on a mission to find this polish.

 Do you guys know and good sites online to buy OPI from?

Kraft Sizzling Salads

Hey ladies, this weekend I picked up a couple of the Kraft Sizzling Salads on sale. They were originally $5 and I got them for $3. I've been wanting to try them for awhile now, seeing I love salads and chicken. I haven't used them yet, but I can't wait. A few of my friends really like them.

The ones I picked up were:

South West Chicken

Chicken Caesar 

Have you guys tired them out and what did you think of them?

Swag Shoppin: H&M Sale

Hey ladies, about 2 weekends ago I went to H&M to pick up some more items from the awesome sale they were having. I think the H&M at Vaughan Mills still has the sale going on, so I might go back again tomorrow :)

Anyways I picked up a bunch of great pieces.

Yellow shorts were originally $12.95 and I got them on sale for $5

Cream Leopard print shorts were originally $14.95 and I got them for $5

Floral skirts were originally $14.95 each and I got them for $5

Print harem pants were originally $29.85 and I picked them up for $10

Pink/Salmon shirt was originally $14.95 and I picked them up for $7

I spentless than $50 , so I saved around $55 which I was super happy with. With what I saved I was able to pick up a new pair of sunglasses, already owned these but broke them on Canada Day. As well as a new black purse, which I've been wanting to get.

Super happy with all my items, can't wait to past some new OOTD's.

Hope everyone is having an amazing day!
