My first Glossybox!!!

My first look... So excited!!! 

The box inside the shipping box. I love how sturdy it is. You can reuse it to store stuff in (my makeup), or for a gift. 

It looks so fancy! I love it!!!

What's inside the box... there are a mixture of 5 full size and deluxe samples and a card that talks about each item.

Essie (nail polish)
In She's Pampered

Full size!!! Value $8.50

You can buy the full size HERE for $8.50

I haven't had a chance to use this yet since I get my nails professionally done and only do my toes maybe twice a month but when I do I will update you.  I do love the color though! Reds are my favorite for my toes, it makes me look tanner!  :)

Benefit Cosmetics 

They're Real Mascara 

Deluxe size, Value $10

You can buy the full size HERE for $23.

I already use this mascara daily so I'm glad I got a small one to keep in my purse! It makes my lashes look so long and thick. I would recommend it to anyone.

BVLGARI

Eau Parfumée au thé vert conditioner

Deluxe sample (2.53 fl oz), Value $16.84

You can buy the full size (6.76 oz) HERE for $45.

I used this and was not impressed didn't make a difference in my hair at all. It smelled kind of nice but not enough to spend $45 on.

VICHY
LiftActiv Night
Deluxe sample (0.51 fl oz), Value $15.10

You can buy the full size (1.69 oz)  HERE for $50.

I haven't tried this I'm not sure I will. I don't really do night creams yet...

OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE COSMETICS
In Black Dahlia Lip Tar (Matte)
Full size!!! (0.34 fl oz), Value $18.

You can buy the full size HERE for $18.

I love the color of this! It's a deep red and I love the cute little lip brush it comes with! My grandma on the other hand didn't like it on me. LOL! I will post a picture of me wearing it later and you guys can tell me what you think.

So in all I am very pleased with my first Glossybox I paid only $21.00 and the value of my box was $68.44. I can't wait to find out what I'm getting next month!!!

Too Faced Everything Nice Palette Review

So I decide to purchase this palette on a whim. It was so pretty and eye-catching and it was a plus that it came with a make up bag! 

Front cover

Inside

It comes with the deluxe size better than sex mascara and a glittery pink makeup bag. I was really excited about the make up bag but once I received it and I tried to put the palette inside it didn't fit so I was pretty disappointed. Also the glitter on the bag falls off and makes a mess! What's the point of it coming with the make up bag if it doesn't even fit inside of it? 

Next I swatched the colors...

These are the first two rows. Some of them were kind of chalky. Didn't go on as smooth as some of the other eyeshadows that I have like urban decay or other too faced

 palettes that I have. 

Here the next two rows. My favorite of the whole palette is the last one on the top row in this picture. I'll probably be returning this palette. It's not worth it for only one eyeshadow that I like.

The brushes are cheaper quality than the regular teddy bear brushes that too faced makes you'd be better off getting their original teddy bear brushes then these. 

Don't get me wrong I still love this brand but this product for me was not to my liking. 

But at least now you guys know what I think of it and hopefully it helps some of you out. Thanks for reading my blog. I hope you enjoyed it. Feel free to leave me a comment. 

Anybody else that has bought this palette what do you think of it?

Tarte 12 piece eyeliner swatches!

I decided to swatch my new tarte eyeliners tonight. It's the first time I've ever tried tarte pencil liners I usually use Urban Decay, Ulta, or Sephora's. But these are pretty awesome! They are very pigmented and creamy! Glides on like butter! I love that they came in a cute little roller bag with a eye pencil sharpener too!

From left to right:

Golden plum, Hunter green, chocolate, Navy, charcoal, brown, black, bronze, antique gold, jungle green, plum, and nude

In all I think this was a great purchase for only $25!!!! What a steal!!!! I know that it is still available on tartes website for $25 or $50 on QVC.

Here is the link for tartes website...

My Sephora Haul

So I live in a town of 350 and the closest mall is over an hour away and it isn't even that great of a mall. It has a maurices, rue 21, bath & body works and a few other stores. So almost everything that I buy is from online. 


So here is an order that I just received from Sephora. Later I'm planning to do a post of my eyeliner swatches!


I bought the the Lorac Silver Screen eye collection because I tried a sample of the lorac eye primer and fell in love and wanted the full size but its $20 so instead I bought this for only $28 and got the full size Behind The Scenes Eye Primer (0.53 oz.), a beautiful silver eyeshadow in Silver Screen (0.06 oz.), a full size Cobra Mascara (0.25 oz.), and a full size eyeliner, Front of the Line Pro in Black (0.02 fl. oz.) An $83 value! 

I got a deluxe Lorac mascara free as a gift with purchase!

I bought the Tarte Eye Opening 12 Piece Eyeliner Set for only $25! 

Shades include: Nude, Bronze, Brown, Chocolate, Plum, Antique Gold, Hunter Green, Jungle Green, Navy, Charcoal, Black and Golden Plum.  (12 x 0.0423 oz.)

I got the Tarte mascara and powder free as a gift with purchase!

I already have the Smashbox Full Exposure Palette in the full size but decided to get the smaller one to keep in my purse. It is the perfect to go palette! Small enough to even fit in my wallet!

I bought the Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes Precision Longwear Liner on sale for $10 from $20. This is the second one that I have purchased so I would have a back up! That is how much I fell in love with this liner. Its so easy to use. You can make it thin or thick. It stays and it looks good!
 
So that is a look at my little shopping bag of goodies and I will get back to you all with some swatches so stay tuned! If you have any questions please feel free to ask! I hope you all have a good night!

My first blog post ever!!!

So I've been wanting to start blogging for sometime now and have always kept putting it off due to family, kids, nursing school, working, and in general... life. 

But I figured it's about time to start something new and see how it goes. I can defiantly say that I have no idea what I'm doing but I'm learning as I go. 

I'm most likely going to be posting about makeup, nails, purses, shopping, subscription boxes, make up reviews, candles, bath and body works, Ulta, Sephora, deals, cooking, and everything in life that I love! 

So welcome to my blog and I hope you enjoy!
