Run to your nearest Victoria's Secret!

Yesterday, I took a little trip to my Victoria's Secret to try to get a job. They were going to let me work in the beauty section and everything but when they found out that I couldn't work Thanksgiving weekend they told me goodbye. I was really really bummed. Why, you may ask? You might think, "Whats so great about Victoria's Secret? There are other jobs out there." Or some of you may totally understand my pain. Anyways, I was bummed because Victoria's Secret has a GREAT beauty department! Seriously. I have more than my fair share of their eyeshadows and lip glosses. They are such a deal! All their make up is drugstore prices but better quality. (The new Heidi Klum collection is the exception. It's more expensive.) They have great pigmentation. So, after looking at all the items they have out for gifts and such, I had all of my friends and girl cousins covered! There is everything girly girls love for under 20 bucks. Bath sets, shimmery lotion, regular lotion, eyeshadow sets (I want one!), lip gloss sets, lipstick, shimmery liner, professional liner, I could go on forever. I want every single thing in their beauty department and I probably could of got it all for discounted prices if I had gotten that job. Maybe, I'll go back and say I can work Thanksgiving weekend? Haha. I'm smitten. I can't wait to go to VS and buy cute things for all my girls and still have money in my pocket so I can spoil myself with eyeshadows galore and shimmery lotion.

Glitz and glam

Recently I went to Sephora and spent way too much money on some appealing products. I got myself 2 eyeshadow brushes, Diorshow Mascara in plum (10$!!!), the Josie Moran argon oil stick, and gold sparkly nail polish! The nail polish is so festive and it reminds me that Thanksgiving and Christmas are right around the corner! I'm thinking that when it gets closer to Christmas I'll coat the gold polish over some red polish and have instantly festive nails. haha. Cheesy, maybe, but fun. The Sephora by O.P.I nailpolishes are great! I have three and I love them all. The new glitter collection comes in silver glitter, green glitter, and gold glitter. I definitly recommend the collection! I'm sure that someone you know (maybe even yourself) would adore it as a gift. I know it might sound crazy but I've already started my gift shopping. I'm trying to be ahead of the game this year. Go me!

THE BEST WAY TO REMOVE MAC LIQUIDLAST OR STUBBORN EYELINER

Today I tried on my sister's liquidlast eyeliner from MAC. As you may know, I adore liquid liners because they stay put and this one definitly stays put. It's perfect for summer because it stays and stays and stays. You can swim, workout, be sweating in the himidity and it won't move. Thats great, but how do you get that sucker off when it's time for bed? Well, I have a great trick. Smear A+D or Vaseline on your eyelid, rub it in, wait a few seconds, and then wipe off the liner. It might take 2 times, but your liner will be off without using an oil based make up remover. (I don't own any so this trick was a lifesaver because I really didn't want to run to the store to get some or wear bright teal liner to school tomorrow.) Vaseline and A+D can also be used for other beauty emergencies. I know it says on the bottle that its for diaper rash or cuts but it is perfect for moisturizing lips, hands, or anything you need it to. It doesn't taste good, but if you use it overnight you will wake up with smooth and soft lips. It's cheap,too! Mental reminder to take some with me to college when I go...

Well, ain't this cute? and convenient!

Today, I was looking at the Hallmark store closest to me and I found the most adorable thing. It's a chapstick in a ball shape. It's so cute and easy to tote around. I put it in my backpack and one in my car.

Revlon colorstay liquid lipstick!

I have a new found love for the whole Revlon colorstay collection! As you may know, their colorstay eyeliner is my fav ever, and now I am obsessed with their new liquid lipstick. Holla! This baby stays put. I've worn it through eating, drinking, etc and it is still on, looking fab. It will be my go to color for my girls night out next wednesday! I have a red color and a pink color. I wanted them to look like the Stila Cherry Crush lipstain and the Posie Pink lipstain by Benefit. The revlon colorstay liquid lipsticks are a bit heavier and darker but I am ok with it. The one catch with this stuff is it is drying, so slap on some creamy lip balm and you will be a-okay.

Make up Expiriments

I was not born into a family of beauty addicts. My mom was a body builder and the only thing she has ever worn is black eyeliner. My granparents, aunts, cousins, etc could care less about the new chanel collection coming out or what eyeshadow color themselves or others are wearing. I, on the other hand, am all over the trends and I'm always trying new things. Recently, I decided red lips were my thing to try. I have strawberry blonde hair but I was determined to find a good color. I went to CVS (why spend a lot of money when I'm just testing?) and bought Revlon's cherry in the snow. I LOVE IT! My family, they aren't too thrilled. It's too red according to them. They don't like the red trend at all, especially on me. I like it though. The only thing is the lip stick comes off on everything. I know the rule of applying lipstick and then blotting and reapplying but I'm thinking that I'm going to try that liquid lipstick stuff from revlon, covergirl, or l'oreal. I'll see how it goes and report it back!
