I made the plunge, NARS ITA BRUSH!

I finally decided to bite the bullet and buy the very popular contour brush, NARS Ita Kabuki Brush. This brush is used all over YouTube! The first time I used it I was so impressed! I definitely need some more practice with it though! I think it is worth the $55 dollars if contouring is something you really want to get into! It's been making me feel pretty lately! I love it :) 

This was the first time I used it! 

And this was the second!


And here it is!!! :D

Ulta Haul: NYX, L'Oreal, and Batiste!! :)

Right before my vacation I went to Ulta to get a few things, here is what I picked up! 

First, I was in a serious need of a new dry shampoo! I love this Batiste one, it smells so good too. 

 NYX products were on sale, and I really wanted to try the new Angel Veil Primer. Let me tell you, it is AMAZING! It feels similar to Hourglass's Mineral Veil Primer, and it glides over your skin! 
I also picked up two of these GORGEOUS NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams, I got the shades Morocco and Copenhagen. They are so pretty, especially for fall!  


 L'Oreal was also on sale, so I picked up some mascaras. I repurchased the Butterfly mascara, and got it in waterproof for my vacation. I also picked up the new Miss Manga mascara. I am seriously loving it so far. And lastly, I got the Million Lashes mascara because I have never tried it before!

2. I took a mix of W.O.S and Venus and applied the color all over the lid with a Sigma E55 brush.
3. I used a mix of Faint and Crave to blend out in the outer V and a little bit into the crease, with a Sigma E35.

Forever 21 and Avon Haul

I love my pink pleated maxi skirt that I got it in green!! :) 

 I got myself a KIMONO!! :) 
The picture doesn't show it very well the pattern is pictured below 


Mint Crop top tank
 This bralette is black, it didn't show up that though. haha
 I recently purchased some stuff from Avon, and I also got some samples that I was really impressed with! 

This is a swatch of the lipgloss in the shade Creamy Nude


This perfume is really nice! Very floral and feminine 

I bought this really nice Avon Glow bronzer/blush duo in Peach Glow
Matte Bronzer and Blush! 

 I really wanted to try an  eye cream, and this one is really great! Pretty thick, but not too thick. I have definitely seen improvements in my under-eye dryness.

Out of all the samples, I was most impressed with this eyeshadow quad sample! 
The colors were so creamy and pigmented!! I was very impressed. 
This quad is called in Stone Taupes

Sephora, Hautelook, and Forever 21 mini haul

I really have been needing some serious skincare lately. My skin is SO dry. So I got this First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream that is supposed to be amazing. I also wanted to try this Boscia Makeup-Breakup Cool Cleansing Oil to take off my fave makeup. 



 This may be a TINY deluxe sample, but at least I can try this bad boy. 
I got it as a 100 point gift! :)
 I love getting these little deluxe sized products from Benefit to try them out! 


 I got this little vile of Katy Perry's Killer Queen perfume. I'm not a huge fan of hers anymore, and this perfume is named after my idol's song. But I have to admit...It smells AMAZING. I definitely would like to get the full size eventually.
 I got a deluxe sized sample of the new Buxom foundation! It's definitely too dark, but I'll save it for summer. It seems really nice though!

 Nicely sized sample of Buxom Full-On Lip Cream in Mudslide

 My adorable new sunglasses from Forever 21! They are like cat-eye aviatiors! :) 
 I wanted some cute pajamas! I got this cute nightshirt and the short and tee set below! 

 And this gorgeous pale pink pleated maxi skirt with two slits! 


From Hautelook I got these adorable booties <3 I think the brand is Bucco
