I Got Some Goodies Today..... Makeup That Is

Hello my friends. How was every ones weekend? Good good, that's always nice to hear...lol. Well you all know that my birthday was last week, oh thank you for all the birthday wishes you're giving me now (a girl can dream right..lol). Anyways, my mom, brother, sister and I went out today for lunch and I did some light shopping. My mom told me for my birthday gift she was going to take me shopping (big mistake, huge...Pretty Woman reference). So we went to Ulta, she calls it my church, and I mean  I was in heaven. There was a point where I was actually sitting on the floor look at the NYX stuff. My brother is such a trooper, he just sat there with me asking me about his skin and what I was looking for. He really is a great guy. While we were there he read all my blog posts (it was to sweet) so at least he had something to occupy some of his time. You should have seen my hands when I left. I had a true blue swatchfest. My hands are still stained from some of the stuff I tried out...oh the struggles of a makeup lover.


I didn't go over board with my purchases, but I did get a few things that I really have had my eye on. I got a lot of lip products because they have been my latest obsession.

The first thing is a brown lip liner from Palladio ($2.99) in Walnut. I was looking for a dark brown lipstick but struck out (sad face). This thing is so smooth and very pigmented.

 
Next I got some NYX Matte Lipsticks. The first in Butter (above) which is a brown nude and the second in Shocking Pink (below) which is a polar opposite. It's more purpley pink.
 
 
I also got one of NXY Soft Matte Lip Creams in Monte Carlo. It's very smooth and somewhat of a stain, or at least it stained my hand.
 
My last lip product comes from Rimmel London. It's there Provocalips 16hr Kiss Proof Lip color. It's in the color Dare To Pink, it comes off like a nude pink. It also has a clear gloss because it's move a stain.


 

I have been wanting to try some new brow products so I had a long hard debate with myself on weather to get the NYX Brow Gel or a brow pencil. I went with the pencil because they didn't have my color in the gel...boooo. I got the NYX Micro Brow Pencil in Chocolate. It's cool because it also has a spooly on the other end. I'm always loosing my brow combs. There's a few other ones I going to try and compare them.
 
I have been hearing so much about the NYX Wonder Pencil....so like every other person on this green earth I got one. I really want it so I can use it under my brows. I got the color Medium. I have also seen people use it to clean up the lip area.
 
I got 2 Benefit products, both samples sizes. I wanted to try the POREfessional primer because I have larger pores that need some help and I wanted to see how well the new They're Real! Push Up Liner. This liner is truly smudge proof. I wash my hands a lot (OCD habit) and it is so hard to get off. I want to see if my eye makeup remover will get it off.
 









Here's a swatch of the Wonder Pencil, Brow Pencil and Gel eye liner.
 
I have the pink Beauty Blender and use it everyday. I have heard that the Real Techniques Beauty Sponge is better. So I couldn't pass it up. I know that they sell their brushes at Walmart (which makes me so happy) but they don't have the Sponge. It is only $5.99 so I swooped it up. It is really soft and I'm truly excited to put my makeup on tomorrow.
 
The last purchase is a completion of a collection. I finally got the yellow EOS. It's the Lemon Drop one. I have every color out there, I think. My sister even bought me the limited Disney edition. I love these things. They are so addicting.
 




Well guys that's all I got.....today. Tomorrow I'm hitting up Sephora with all my other birthday money so be ready for that. I will be having a great day. Talk to you guys soon.

 
Thanks for reading
Love yall
-Jessica
