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!

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 :)

I got this LOVELY blush from Sephora by a brand called The Balm and the blush is called HotMama! lol I got it because it reminded me so much of NARS' Orgasm or Deep throat blush?? and i've seriously been wanting to try the NARS one but always forget or end up changing my mind! and also, because I've never seen this brand. Nars blushes run for $25 but I got this one for $19 so it was $6 cheaper than NARS and its the same size! great buy right?! Im loving ittt.

picked up these shimmer cube eyeshadows from the body shop. theyre so nicely pigmented and shimmery-I haven't really had a chance to use them yet but I'm really liking it! I will do a review on this soon! it comes in a square plastic box and when you open it, each shimmer cube is in its own little plastic cube to avoid messes.

I finally tried Laura Mercier's tinted moisturizer! oh this stuff is sooo AMAZING! its really great because I don't need much coverage so this is the perfect product for me! -(I wouldn't recommend this product for anyone who needs full coverage because it won't due that) its soo lightweight on my face and feels as if nothing is there. there's also no smell so that's good. it's tad pricey for just tinted moisturizer but its definitely worth it! My color that I use is in 'Nude' this color works great for me in the summer time but I may switch to the color Porcelain when the winter time comes around because I tend to get a bit lighter. I also got the foundation primer and it goes great with it.

After I apply moisturizer, primer and the tinted moisturizer, I apply this NARS loose setting powder. It goes on great and looks so nice! I'm really loving this. The color is called 'Desert' I think. I'm so glad I found use for this!

Evian water face mist with minerals. just spray this on your face when you're hot and or sweaty and it instantly cools you down! it also sets your makeup so thats a bonus :)

I decided to start using a heat protectant spray-Im using Beyond the Zone? heat protectant. smells really fruity!

before I began to use Laura mercier's tinted moisturizer, I had been using benefit's you rebel in lite. It felt kind of heavy on my face and they only have two different shades so as you can imagine, it didn't really match my skin tone. It was also a bit greasy since its not oil free. I also stopped using this because there was a point where my skin would get irritated and get red and itchy so I stopped using all products at the time. but im pretty sure this contributed to what made me break out! but I'm not sure so don't take my word for it but I won't be risking it by using this ever again. so that's why I don't like this product. The only good thing about this is that it has a nice smell to it. some people like it, and others don't.
