A new haul and a new OBSESSION!♥

yes yes its another haul video Im sorry haha but I went shopping the other day and just HAD to show you what I got because I am SO IN LOVE with everything I got, even though I didn't get very many things. It's just one of those shopping days where you only get a few things but you're so so happy and satisfied with what you got. know what I'm talking about? haha well anyway, I'll just show you all and explain on the way :)

FIRST I went to Sephora! ahh one of my loves. I can never resist you.
Ok so I am sooo excited about what I got because I stood in Sephora trying it on a million times to see if I should get it. I had a hard time deciding whether or not to get them because I was planning on going to MAC first and getting some lipsticks. but then I tried these on and just could not resist buying them. I also had a hard time choosing between these because they're both so lovely and they seemed quite similar so I just bought both and I am so happy I did!









black flower headband. super cute and I got it for a great deal at forever21.

♥♥Benefit's silky finish lipstick-I am so in love with these lipsticks, no kidding! and true to their words, they really are silky smooth. They're so soft and creamy-not at all drying-super smooth-amazing color-& shiny. oh my, I just don't know what more to say besides RUN OUT AND GET THEM NOW!! :) seriously. you are missing out if you have never owned one of these lipsticks.
but the ONLY downside to these lipsticks are the price. They come in at $18.00 a piece. which is more expensive than MAC's lippies. but you get really great packaging made of metal and it super nice and cute. overall it is so worth it and I'll definitely be purchasing alot more.



L:Candy Store-pearly copper pink (has some shimmer)
R:my treat-creamy vibrant rose



They do look a tiny tad bit similar to one another in the pictures but candy store has shimmer in it and is darker and my treat is a lot more vibrant.

TEENY tiny MAC haul

Hello lovelies

So i've been eyeing MAC's colour crafted collection ever since I heard about it. The other day, I planned to go pick up some items from the collection since I was already near the mall but turns out I had no time to go because I was visiting family! WELL. by the end of the day, when we were leaving, I realized we still had half an hour before the mall closed! so we quickly sped to the mall and ran to MAC! haha by the time we got there, there was only about 15 minutes before they closed so I didn't have anytime to look around so I went straight to the collection and grabbed two things! I really wanted to look at their whole collection but there was just no time. anywho, I grabbed the MSF trio in triple fusion and Mineralize blush in Improvise-swatched them and loved them :) I completely forgot to grab smooth merge and Porcelain pink :( sad sad. I'll have to go back soon and get them before they're all gone! I did ask if they had the colour crafted lipstick but sadly they were out, just as I suspected...



MSF trio in triple fusion and Mineralize blush in Improvise









Mineralize blush-Improvise
This GORGEOUS blush is a corally-peach color with white/yellow and gold veining.
I love this blush because it compliments my skin tone very well. I have light skin so when I apply this, all i need to do is barely brush my brush over this blush and lightly apply it to the apples of my cheeks. The shimmer gives me a very nice warm peach/coral glow, which is what I have always wanted!♥



this MSF trio has 3 shades in this. The very top shade is described as a nice champaigne gold color. The middle color is a bronzey pink color and the very last, which is on the bottom, is a rosy pink with gold in it.

For this, I lightly dab my brush in all three shades, but mainly getting more of the top shade (the light gold color) and apply it right above my cheek bones and it highlights amazingly. I then use the last two darker colors as a bronzer/blush for that sun kissed look :)

*If you don't already have any of the MSFs or mineralize blushes then I suggest you RUN out and get one ASAP before it's too late :)

Overall, I am so so happy with what I got! I'm really loving these and will definitely be purchasing more in other colors too♥

Haul Haul Haul!

Hi everyone!♥

so first off, I would like to give a huge thanks to my followers. thank you soo much for following and reading! I now don't feel like I am blogging to myself haha :) so again, thanks so much! You're all so lovely and wonderful! if you have any questions or anything please ask-i'll be glad to help in any way that I can :)

ok, and now for my haullll!






this haul consists of many different places so let me just go along and tell you a bit about it and where I purchased it :)



Revlon's colorstay eyeliner in black: to me, this is the most amazing eyeliner ever. it's definitely my HG eyeliner. I have used this eyeliner brand for over 3 years now. I've searched and searched through high end brands to see if there is a better one but I always seem to go back to this one. It goes on really easy and lasts foor a very long time. each stick is about $7-8 depending on where you get it but right now, they are doing a 2 for 1 special so go out and get one! :)



Left:GOSH darling velvet touch lipstick in #134: it FINALLY cameee! I have been searching and searching for this product for awhile and I finally got my hands on it :) If you really like the nude lips look I definitely reccommend this. its very moisturizing so it doesn't dry out my lips and the color is amazing. The only downsides to this lipstick is that I had to pay a total of $20 and it is hard to get your hands on because they only sell it in the U.K! I got mine off of ebay and made sure it was completely brand new and sealed and it was :)

Right:Revlon's super lustrous lipstick creme collection in Pink in the Afternoon:this color is so pretty! its a dull pink and nice and creamy. not drying at all! this color is really nice for people with pale skin :)










Eyelashes from Hmart in a shseido store for $4. these are really dramatic looking eyelashes. even though they look a bit crazy I just had to have them.and I'm glad I bought it! when I put them on they look gorgeous and makes my lashes look so full.



Sonia Kashuk's fibre highlighting brush: as you can see, I've already used it! haha sorry about that. I use this to apply my blush so that's why it is pink! this brush is so soft and works very nicely. I definitely reccomend this. I love Sonia Kashuk tools!
Studio tools blending brush: I love love love this brush. It is definitely one of my new favorites and is used every day. I use this to create the smokey eye look and it works wonders! its also very soft! I love studio tools. their brushes are always so great!



yellow double headband from Forever21. I got this for a great deal and I'm loving it! this is my first double headband so I'm happy about this purchase :)



John Freida's Heat Defeat-a few weeks ago, I cut off the very ends of my hair because they were so damaged unfortunately. I had so many split ends and my hair broke off so easily. I know it is because I blow-dry my hair and straighten my ends just about everyday without using any kind of heat protectant! so I got this and spray it into my damp hair before blowdrying and straightening my hair. It works really great and doesn't smell bad or weight down my hair at all.






Forever21 dress: this top is really bohemian-like and not usually my style at all, but for some reason this top really stood out so I had to have it. hopefully it will look great on! :)

well thats all! hope you enjoyed :)
