I want to see your blog, and review time! :)

Hi everyone! So I just figured out that a lot of people that follow my blog, don't comment, and I just want to let everyone know that you guys can comment whenever you want!

So to kick start this post, I want you guys out there, who want me to check out your blog, or follow you back, to comment on this post! That way I can get a better idea of who I am blogging to! So I am kind of curious to see what types of posts you guys want me to do. I have a lot of reviews, but I'm not sure if I want to write them out. And I have a lot of tutorials I want to write out as well!

Anyway, so it's been really hot here in Southern California for the last week or so, and I'm litterly DYING! Like no joke! It's so hot, that I don't want to film any videos, or take any pictures. I know right huh?! I know all your californians know what I am talking about! :(

So today, I am going to review a product that I recieved from buzzagent! I recieved this covergirl lash blast fusion mascara from buzzagent this week, and I tried it out. This is what it looks like when it's packaged. 
 This is what it looks like when it's taken out.

The wand is very cool looking! I think it's very cool, because it's purple, and it looks like there are two different sides to it. 
 This is what it looks like when I dipped it into the mascara. 
This is what my lashes look like without mascara, and just curled. 

 This is what the mascara does when applied to my lashes. 

I would give this  4/5 rating! I loved how this mascara made my lashes really nice and long, but after I curled my lashes, the mascara seemed to take away the curliness! But I will probably be using this mascara more now! 

I'm actually going to be doing a video on this product very soon! So stay tuned for that! :)

So this past weekend, my boyfriend and I went to LA! I love going to LA because sometimes I can find really good deals on good items, like the lashes below! I got these for $1.99 which is way cheap, and they come with their own glue. I usually don't use the glue that comes with lashes, because I love my Marukai glue way too much to try any other type of glue! haha. 
Up close picture of the lashes. I love criss cross lashes now! They look way pretty in real life, and when applied. :)
 This is what they look like when taken out of the package! I love these lashes! 



And in case you guys are wondering, the Silk'n Sensepil is sitting in the corner of my room. Lol! I haven't really touched it yet. The reason being is because I'm kind of scared to use it! I don't want it to burn my hair off, even though I've heard that it doesn't do that, I still am kind of freaked out, and I think it might do that! Haha.

So what kind of posts would you guys like to see more of? :)

FOTD, NOTD, and Swatches!

Hi everyone! How was your week? Mines was alright. I filled my week with work, work and more work! Haha.
So last weekend, my boyfriend and I went to a friend's house for their child's birthday party! We ate lots of tacos, and my boyfriend randomly ended up in the bounce house with about 10 kids jumping on him! He was scared when this big kid slapped him on the shoulder! But it was really fun nevertheless! So here are some post pictures of my makeup. 

 Top from forever21. Necklace from D<3T Charms, and bracelet from forever21. :)
 Yes, I won that huge banana! He is the coolest banana ever! 

 At the party. My boyfriend chowing down on some awesome carne asada tacos! 
 Look at that food! Nom, nom, nom! 
 I like his funny expressions!
This is what my nail of the day looked like! I love this glitter nail polish! It's very pretty!
 What the tips of my nails looked like. 
So this week I recieved a package from UPS. and I was like hmmmm... What could it be?? And so then I read the label in which it said where it came from, and guess what it is!!!  
It is my very own Silk'n Sensepil! I won this hair removing device from facebook, in late April! I was super excited when it finally made it's way to my house! I thought maybe the UPS guy lost it, or something. I haven't used it yet, but I will let you guys know how it works out when I do use it! 



 So this past week, I've been purchasing some small items here and there. So the first thing I picked up is this NYX lipgloss in whipped. This is amazing lipgloss. It's not so sheer, and it lasts a while on my lips. I'm totally loving this lipgloss! And I got the gloss for a whopping $2.50! That is way cheaper than the NYX store online! :) The second thing my boyfriend bought for me is the Wet'n wild lipstick in Think Pink.

With flash. 
 Without flash. 
This is a swatch of think pink. I think it's an alright color. It seems kind of difficult to apply to my lips because the formula is really thick, and it's like this super pigmented pale pink. Also I don't like the container it comes in, it feels cheap, because it's plastic, and the lipstick has already started to hit the sides of the container. I think I like this lipstick better when I put a coat of lip gloss on it. 
 NYX's lip gloss in Whipped. It's a amazingly not so sheer color, that lasts long on my lips. 
This is what NYX looks like on my lips. 
 Anyway, hope everyone is having a good weekend so far! This weekend, I'm going to party it up! I have some other posts and videos lined up, so please stay tuned for those! :D

Weekend

Hi everyone! How was everyone's weekend? I didn't do much. My boyfriend and I went exploring on Saturday, and on Friday we just hung out after I got off work.

I made some small purchases, because we went to Walmart, and I couldn't resist. I picked up a revlon colorburst lipstick in baby pink, and I also picked up this wet'n wild mega eyes creme eyeliner. Which is basically like a gel liner. I've read so many reviews and I was kind of dying to try this out!

How the eyeliner looks like. It comes with a small eyeliner brush as well.

The lipstick.

It's such a pretty pink color.

What the gel liner looks like.



This is what the lipstick looks like on my lips, and after I applied some Jill Stuart lip gloss.

So my boyfriend bought me some Japanese candy this weekend. A lot of these are really good! I loved the kit kat! It's already gone!

This is a lollipop candy!

Japanese oreo bars, and kit kat bars.

He bought me some panda cookies, and there was this cute panda comic in the box!



Since I'm out for school, I'm going to be working a little more. But I don't think that will get in the way of my blogging! Lol. Winners of the giveaway will be announced later this week! :D

DDF mini haul, major Pop Beauty haul, and drugstore haul

Hi everyone! So today, I'm going to post about my pop beauty haul and my DDF haul, and my drugstore haul! So many hauls in one day I know! But I'm feeling a little better after talking to my manager, so yay! Be warned, picture heavy!

Ok, so the first thing I'm going to talk about is my DDF haul! I ordered this 3 weeks ago from gilt.com, and it finally came in! If you want to check out gilt, you can go to the right sidebar, and I have links to where I shop online, and you can click that for an invitation. (So basically from oldest to newest haul)
The first thing I purchased from Gilt was an accident, I was trying to purchase the moisturizing photo age protection with the glossy lip treatment. I didn't mean to purchase the toning complex! But I guess it's good that I purchased it because it decreases the look of pore size, which is something I've been trying to do for a while.

labels from the back of the toning complex:
And the photo-age protection! I haven't used any of these products yet, because I just got them in, and I will probably do a review on them later on, maybe in a month or so.
Ok so onto the pop beauty haul! So basically I bought these off ebay, and I bought them from shannonalbert30, and her shipping is pretty fast! It took 4 days, but the bad thing is that you have to bid on her stuff, because it's not buy it now. She also has mac stuff in her store, and too faced, and some stila items, so check her out!

These were the two small palettes I got in the mail. Lid gold, and Lid silver! I haven't used either of them yet, because I've been trying to keep my makeup simple, with my Coffret D'or palette, but I will probably use them later. The two palettes, when they are open. I think the lid silver is very pretty, because the colors are dark, and lean more towards purple shades. By the way, pop beauty is awesome, because they always come with directions, so if you don't really know how to apply makeup, these palettes are awesome. Lid gold. Lid gold, when opened, and up close.
Lid gold swatches.Lid silver. Lid silver when opened, and up close. Lid silver swatches. I also purchased these two palettes, smokey eyes, and brown eyes.
The smokey eye palette, and colors! I've actually used this palette. I used it this past weekend, and it looks very pretty. I love dark colors, so the black on the far left is pretty good. smokey eye swatchs
And they both come with a cute little mirror for application. The only thing I don't like about these palettes is that they come with this two sided brush, and it has this elastic band that can hold a brush, but it's very annoying trying to put the brush back into the elastic band, because I don't want to damage the brush.
The brown eyes palette.
Brown eye swatches.The final item that was purchased was this hello gorgeous eyeshadow, blush, and lipgloss palette!
The top layer included the blush, and lipglosses! :)The second layer on the bottom included the eyeshadows. I'm not going to do swatches of these, because there are like 36 colors, and I'm too lazy to do all of them. Plus my arm can only hold 12 colors at a time, so I would have to swatch, remove, and repeat 3 times! Sorry about the glare! The last haul I did this week, was at CVS. Now I'm a CVS member, I have their card, and the only reason I purchased these was because I got a coupon last time I was there, that said $5 off any purchase of $15 or more. So of course I had to buy some makeup! Because thats pretty much the only thing I ever purchase when going to CVS. Well that and alcohol. Haha.

Left to right: Revlon matte eyeshadow in venetian blue, eyeshadow quad in 09 sterling rose, eyeshadow quad in 18 azure mist, revlon matte in peach sorbet (By the way, I got the revlon stuff because it was BOGO!), and the big orange thing is the airspun loose powder in honey beige.
The revlon eyeshadows.The sterling rose swatches. I love this palette. :)And the Azure Mist swatches.
So I bought this loose face powder, but now I'm kind of regretting it. It has a certain smell, like baby powder, and when applied, it makes my skin look extremely pale. I don't really like this powder at all. Oh well.
What it looks like, when open.
And last but not least, since I forgot to post a picture of the nails that Lindah got me, and sent me! Thank you Lindah! You are super awesome! I will be sending a little something something soon! :)
And that is basically it for my major hauls this week! I will be doing my paul and joe haul probably next week, as soon as my items come in, and the Coffret D'or palette review very soon!
