Review: Marc Jacobs Enamored Hi-Shine Lacquer

Hi friends!

Recently on a trip to Sephora I decided to splurge and try the new Marc Jacobs Enamored nail Hi-Shine Lacquer, the color I chose is Petra.  There were quite a few colors that caught my eye and I have two more on my list for next time but I think I'll do a dedicated post on the products on my "wants list" to share with you guys soon! The pictures below are with one and then two coats but this definitely could have been a one coat polish as you can see in the first picture. I love how fine the glitters/shimmers are in it, just the perfect purple/chocolate metallic polish and it applied so well; I'll definitely be picking up more. The bottle contains 0.43oz and Sephora.com describes it as a dirty bronze metallic shimmer and I'd have to say that I completely agree! Enjoy!

Marc Jacobs "The Lolita" Palette

A couple of weeks ago Sephora had their VIB 20% off sale and I had 1 very special item on my list that I wanted to pick up.  The big purchase I made is the Marc Jacobs Style Eye-Con No.7 palette in "The Lolita", I've had my eyes on this beauty since I saw swatches but have held off because of the $59 price tag but I am so pleased with them.  The shimmery shades do have fall out but they are the most buttery smooth shadows that I own.  I love how the Lolita offers both matte and shimmery shades and eliminates the need to bring multiple palettes when traveling. I think it's just fabulous and I hope you get to try something out from the line soon! Enjoy!

Revlon Colorburst Matte Balms

Earlier this week I did a post on the new Revlon Lacquer balms that I picked up at the awesome Walgreens sale.  I went back today to grab a few of the Matte balms and with my coupon they only came out to $1.39 a piece so that truly was a steal! I have Elusive, Striking, & Sultry to share with you guys, enjoy!

belVita crunchy Breakfast Biscuits

Hi friends!

This morning I enjoyed something a little different for breakfast; called Breakfast biscuits in the flavor blueberry. Per the packaging: these breakfast biscuits have 18g of Whole Grain per serving and are supposed to give Nutritious Sustained Energy.  I thought I could really benefit from starting my day with these since I have a 3 year old and can't exactly have dips in energy throughout the day, I really enjoyed these but didn't really see any changes in my energy level as opposed to normal.  I was pretty full through the morning hours so I do see myself picking these up in the future for a quick mid morning snack!

Lindt LINDOR Milk Chocolate Truffles

Hello again!

Today I'm sharing a sweet treat with you guys! I received the Lindt Lindor Truffles in my Influenster Rose VoxBox and I was happy to see an old favorite! I have actually purchased these before and pretty much love every flavor with white chocolate being my favorite! They are the smoothest and creamiest chocolate I've ever tasted and I've found having one as my afternoon snack to be the perfect pick-me-up!

Revlon Colorburst Lacquer Balms

This week Walgreens has a great way to score the new Revlon Colorburst Lacquer/Matte Balms for just $3.39 a piece versus the usual price of $8.99! Up until November 23 all Revlon products are 40% off so that makes the balms $5.39 but In Store Walgreens offers a $2.00 coupon in the November savings book bringing the price down to just $3.39 a piece! Coupons.com also has a $2 coupon on any Revlon Lip Product that you can use with the sale, bringing the final price down to $1.39 and that is a steal!  I picked up three shades from the lacquer line but have plans to go back for more later this week (if there are any left!); the shades I chose are Enticing, Provocateur, & Demure.  The other shades on my list are .  Have any of you picked these up and if so, what are your favorites from these lines?

Ipsy Bag November 2013 " Glam It Up"

Hi friends!

I got my Ipsy bag a few days ago & I can't say that I was overly thrilled with the contents but I am okay with the items I got.  I was really hoping to get the em michelle phan mascara but I got a lip balm instead so I may use the 30% code to still pick that up from the website. I'm not too crazy about the hairspray as I've been receiving that type of thing in my bag a lot.  I also got a bronzer, lip crayon, and nail color which are all nice but I just was hoping for something cool and different this month. Did you love anything in your bag this month?


Pixi Subtly Suntouched, em sorbet, Be a Bombshell hot damn, Starlooks Topaz

My bag this month:
em michelle phan - pillow plush cushiony lip balm (sorbet)
Be a Bombshell - Lip Crayon (hot damn)

Starlooks - Gem Eye Pencil (Topaz)

Update on October Favorites and October Monthly Manis

This month you may have noticed there was no post for Monthly Manis and the reason for that is because I've been doing tons of Zoya swatches this month and haven't had time to wear any other polishes.  If you have time check out those posts, I worked really hard on them and I'll link them below for you guys to check them out.

The reasoning behind no October favorites is because I really haven't worn anything for makeup this month.  I hadn't really purchased anything either so I haven't had any Hauls to share but this month (November) I've had time to pick up a few new products and I'll be sharing them on the blog soon. If I had to pick a favorite for the month it would go to the Baby Lips Dr. Rescue in Coral Crush, it's the perfect lip balm to throw in my purse and use throughout the day without a mirror and even gives off a sheer hint of coral color.  I picked another shade up this week called Soothing Sorbet but I've only had that for about a day so I'm sure if I love it that you'll see it in next month's favorites.

Thanks for sticking with me this month and being forgiving as we all have off-months or months when we take a break from beauty for life.

My Ulta & CVS Haul

Hi Guys!

Today I'd like to share a small Ulta/CVS Haul. I've been searching for the Limited Edition Maybelline Color Tattoo's in "Just Beige" & "Matte Brown" and today I found a full display at CVS so I happily snatched them up for Buy One Get One 50% off! Next I went to Ulta (since I haven't been in a couple of months) and checked out the NYX section and all of the Single Eye Shadow shades were on clearance for $2.49! I have a few of these and the quality is fabulous for the price so I picked up 4 more to add to my collection. A few of the shadows are also on sale on Ulta's website but it's pretty slim pickings. NouveauCheap even featured my picture over on her blog, thank you G! Last but not least, I wanted to try the Essence express dry drops because I've heard just how awesome they are and they only cost $2.99 so I figured I'd give it a try! Pictures below, enjoy!

Rimmel London Scandaleyes Retro Glam Mascara

I had the chance to try out the brand new not-yet-released Rimmel Scandaleyes retro glam mascara through Influenster.  As I've said before I'm not much of a mascara buff and as long as it coats my lashes black, I'm good.  I enjoyed the shape of the wand and how easily it seemed to build just enough volume to look real and natural.  The formula was on the drier side but I didn't mind because I'm not too picky about formula as long as it does what it says.  Bottom line is this is a good mascara and worth the money, especially if you enjoy the hourglass shaped wand for giving you the volume you want.
