Confessions of a Bargain Hunter - Wonderful World

Tiny Haul.
Some fun nail polishes, finally a stippling brush, a jumbo eye-shadow pencil and THE WRONG SHADE OF MINERAL POWDER - URGH!!!
We took about 10 minutes to find the right shade and she gave me the wrong shade...
But it just goes to show people - Double Check your items before purchasing and exiting the store.
So as the saying goes
"When the Sales Girl gives you the wrong shade of Powder, Use it as Bronzer"
:P 










Happy Holidays!

Idlesome Nail Art

Happy Holidays!

You've Been Swatched - Elf (Royal Purple)

You know the saying
"A Picture Paints a Thousand Words..."
Well this picture just takes away from the beauty that this bottle holds.
Something to do with Purples - I can never get the right shade.
It's a gorgeous deep purple with the ever so slightly bits of shimmer showing up here and there...
I just wish you guys could have seen the true color pay off.


Happy Holidays!

You've Been Swatched - Santee (Silver)


This color is sooooo sheer it looks like a pearl. 
I can't say much for it's application but that it's streaky and i don't mind.
They should have called it Pearl though instead of Silver.



November was Prostate Cancer Awareness month.
I had this manicure planned but sometimes life gets in the way of my plans.
But as i always say, "Better Late than Never"
And even though November was marked for Prostate Cancer Awareness, i think we should always have the men in our lives at the top of our list - I Do!
So i present to you - Mr. Frenchy!!! :D
Do Curtsy...for Mr. Frenchy is indeed the Gentleman! 





I hope you enjoyed this post and i look forward to being able to share my joy with you.

Happy Readings!

Review - Milani Coral Cabana

This Lipstick is a creamy-smooth, full-coverage, lustrous lipcolor that makes lips look and feel magnificent! The smell of it though is very strong - you continue to smell it once it remains on your lips. I personally don't mind the smell because it reminds me of my mom. The days when i use to rummage through her collection and swatch it on the inside of the cupboard door - not my lips - the cupboard door. Hehe. It's one i reach for on a regular basis because it's not very bold although it may come of as a metallic lip color because of the coppery undertones to it. I use a light handed application but it's very build-able to achieve it's greatest potential.


 






What's your favorite Orange-ish lipcolor?

Haul - Confessions of a Bargain Hunter

 I've notice a trend.

*Nervous Look*

Most of my post for the last couple of weeks are hauls.
Do I have a problem?
No! 
Ok then! Teehee!!!!

This one's small - very small.
I purchased these products from Halener Rustique


First up are these cute little pots - 5 grms jars where you get 10 jars for $35 TT.
I might use these for my Halener Rustique pigments or Nail Art Jewels.


My Holy Grail Product!
I don't know how i lived without this stuff before.
This goes for $25 TT for the 30 grms jar and it comes with a sifter to make things a bit easier to apply.

 A MN 12 pcs pencil set for $25 TT. 
These can be used for both Eyes and Lips and they are so pigmented and don't let me start on the Cute Factor here.


This was a Freebie! Yay for Freebies!!!
I went through my entire collection of eye shadows and that did take me a while - loooong while to find a dupe for this because i noticed i have alot of Gold eye shadows.
None! I found none.
This is definitely a Must have just because it's unique in my eyes and its only $5 TT for a 1/4 teaspoon in a baggie.


See - i told you it was a very small haul.
:D

Take Care

Happy Shoppings!

Haul - Confessions of a Bargain Hunter

When i recently hauled the Beauty Treats 88 Professional Warm Palette, i had my eyes on the Shimmer Palette also but when i tested out the Neutral - WOW!!! Talk about quality. I don't know how it compares to all the other 88 Professional Palettes on the market but i do know that this one is a winner. The prices is very affordable and for the quality of the shadows well worth it...
I grabbed them all - As you can see.
I don't think i'll be needed Palettes in a while.
I'm Set!!!
