I decided to get the lime crime palette china doll palette from bloom.com with my $20 code from signing up for the Pampered Chef Mother's Day Contest. I got my order within 3 days. So lightening fast shipping. They also have a 365 day satisfication guarantee.

I was so sad to see that my yellow was broken and all over the place. :( I had been looking forward to getting this palette for awhile. I sent them a message but i dont want to send it back and then wait for a new one because i wanted it for this next weekend. It had a perfect red and yellow. I got some of the yellow on my hand and i adored the color so much. Once I get a call or email i will decide from there. Ill do a review if i end up keeping this one or if i get a replacement. The palette is $34.99.

 

Notes: I plan on ordering the Acid Palette when i get paid on Friday.

My Glam Bag May 2012

I finally got my glam bag yesterday. For some reason this time it decided to take a week to come to me from california. (Ups held it from fri-wed). Anyways... A lot of people complained about the color of lipstick they got. The name of the one i got is decieving in my opinion.

The normal pink envelope to look for. :)

Love the cosmetic bag this month. So cute!!

Contents:

*Miss Beauty Nail Bling (20 Pcs) Full Size -   I remember buying a similar set at sallys last year and they were around $4 or so. I think thats why I tried them. They came out soon after the Sally Hansen Salon Effects Strips came out. I remember them lasting for about a week. They say they are supposed to last for 10 days. I find the biggest one is a little too narrow for my thumb, so i might just use these to add some bling to my manicure, and apply to one nail at a time.

Retails For: I'm not for sure, I cant seem to find this brand being sold when i google.

*My Glam Concealer and Defining Eyeliner Brush - These are to complete the set of the brushes we have been recieving for the past few months.

Retails For: Last month it was $10 to get the Liner and small shadow brush, so i assume they are the same price.

*Philosophy Love Sweet Love Sample (0.05 oz) - 
A flirty, fruity eau de toilette spray with a fragrance as sweet as love (description from sephora.com) It has a sweet scent which i usually like. I might use this, on the fence if i like it or not. Full Size(2 oz) retails for $42.00.

Sample Size Retails for $1.05

*Studio Gear Complete Color Lipstick in Very Hot Cocoa Full Size - Pump up the color and plump up your lips with this luxurious lipstick that wears like a dream. Revolutionary spheres contain mega-moisturizer hyaluronic acid and folic acid, a vitamin B derivative that actually plumps your lips. The color may look scary. The name itself makes you think brown but its actually a darker red with brownish undertones. I actually kind of like it. Ill swatch and do a review once I use it.

Retails for $15.00

Total Retail: Around $30.

 

This bag is a monthly subscription for $10 a month with Free Shipping. This month bag was ok. Im not for sure how much longer im going to subscribe but I must say ive used more products from these bags then I did for all my birchbox(7 months) and gogogirlfriend boxes(3 months). Ive been recieving glam bags since February.

Ive been wanting both palettes for awhile now.  I plan on getting both I just can only purchase one right now.

Sleek I-Divine Acid Palette

Borrowed From Xsparkage


Her look that made me fall in love with this palette was Electro Candy


Lime Crime China Doll Palette

Borrowed from Bows and Curtseys

The look that made me drool for this palette was Wicked Wanderlust.

(yes i know about the controversy surrounding the company but i really like this palette and from pics it seems to have a smooth application and good color payoff)

 

Which one should I get??? I found the Acid Palette on Ebay for a reasonable price($15.90 including shipping) and a seller with a 99.7 rating. The China Doll Palette I would be getting from bloom.com using my $20 off coupon.

PowerPuff Girls Buttercup Inspired Look

By cristalena56 · May 12, 2012 · 0 Comments · 34 Views

My BFF asked me to do a look for one of her all time favorite cartoon characters, Buttercup.

I had gotten a green loose eye shadow by cherry blossoms cosmetics in a gogogirlfriend box, and I never used it. I came across it a week ago and put it with my make up I reguarly use. I thought it would work good for this look. Though now that i look at this pic, its too dark but thats ok. I'm trying to remember what colors I used for the final look because it was around 1 am when i was doing this look.

I had only about 15 minutes before when i did this look, so sorry about the quality. I also forgot to use a primer.

*I first applied NYX Shadow Base White to my inner corner.

*I then applied Glamour Doll Eyes Cloud Coverage over it.

*I then applied Cherry Blossoms Cosmetics Dreamy Girl to middle of the lid.

*Next I applied TBN Steal the Night

 

*Then Dreamy Girl again.

*Applied TBN Steal the Night to lower lashline.

*I shaped my eye with NYC Liquid Liner in Black.

*Lined my upper lashline with Revlon Colorstay Liquid Liner.

*Mascara

When i went to take pics i saw my white was creasing. My cloud coverage had spilled, and have not much left, so this might be why because i didnt have much to pat over NYX Shadow Base. When i tried fixing it i messed it up on my one eye. I also noticed while looking through pics i had some specks of white on my brow bone, sorry.

Items Used:

*NYX Shadow Base White

*Elf 100 Pc Palette

*Cherry Blossoms Cosmetics Dreamy Girl

*TBN Steal the Night

*LA Splash Rock Star

*Maybelline One by One Mascara


*Primer

*applied NYX Shadow Base White to the lid and crease, rouding out to the lashline.

*Next I applied GDE Cloud Coverage over NYX Shadow Base in inner corner.

*Next I applied ELF Green to middle of lid, blending it outwards.

*Next I applied CBC Dream Girly to the outer lid.

*Blended

*Next I took a brush and NYX Black Bean and went above the greens drawing a line to shape the eye.

*Applied MAC Pearlglide Eye Liner in Industrial to lower lashline.

*Next I applied TBN Steal the Night to the Black Bean line, rouding out to the outer corner of my lower lashline.

*Next I took a eye liner brush, applied LA Splash Shadow Sealer/Base to it an dipped it into the LA Splash Rock Star Glitter. Applied it then over the black.

*Lined my upper lashline with Revlon Colorstay Liquid Liner in Black

*Maybelline Illegal Length Mascara

30 minutes before i had to leave for work, I looked around to find some inspiration for my eye look or work. I happened to see this can on the table. It inspired me to do this look. I found some good matching colors in my ELF 100 pc Palette.

Items Used:

*Elf 100 Pc Palette (we've been getting these at Ross lately, I got mine for christmass)

*NYX Jumbo Pencil Milk

*Cargo Swimmables Eye Pencil - Gold(name not on it)

*Maybelline Master Precise Liquid Eye Pen

*Maybelline One by One Mascara

I changed this look when I got home because I couldnt get the gold to show up very well. I thought of the swimmable pencil when I was on my way to work.

After a couple hours at work the gold was fading away.

*NYX HD Shadow  Base

*I first applied NYX Jumbo Pencil Milk in the inner corner.

*I then applied the white shadows to the inner corner.

*Then i applied the pink to 2/3 of the lower lid.

*Next I applied the red on top and shaping the pink.

*Then i applied the Cargo Swimmable Gold above the red.

*Then i did white, pink, red, gold to lower lashline.

*Applied Maybelline Master Precise Liquid Pen to upper lashline.

*Mascara


Let me know what you think?? Comment below!!

 

Notes: I really need a eye brow wax. Im not very good at tweezing... I need to find somewhere less expensive then the European Wax Place ($16 plus tip :/). The first waxing job is free. I got the 2nd one for half off with coupon. Full price is just way too much for a eye brow waxing. I thought about getting them threaded before.
