You too faced.....

:) I had to get your attention, didn't I?? Well if you never read anything, then you don't know of my love for the brand Too Faced. Oh their eyeshadow sets are too lovely. I wear them every day. Their eyeshadow primer lasts over 12 hours usually  (unless you are super sweaty...)! Their plumping lip gloss works. I love them. A lot.
Well and silly me neverrrr even thought to look to see if they had an official site, not just sold through sephora or ulta.  But I looked it up and signed up for an account. Because I am obsessed (if only they were cheaper..poo!) And ended up buying the summer eyeshadow box. Mmmm it looked like summer. (Well technically not this summer..what up, kansas? Rain much?!) Beautiful stuff. And then a bronzer and brush kit. :) they make wonderful bronzers.
But when you sign up for an account to be on the A-list (freeeee) you get a 10% off coupon code to be used on your purchase!  Woot woooott!!
Sooooooo head your pretty butt and face over to Too Faced and sign up!

Mm so beautiful I shall be.....

Make Review-- Put a Lid on It! from the Balm

Hey! Sorry it's been so long.. Work Work and More Work.

I work a lot of 12 hour shifts day after day after day. But the money's nice, so I try to not complain about it too much! Because I've been able to pay all my bills AND buy me some new things.

LIke I have gone make up crazy lately. I signed up for Birchbox monthly subscription for high end beauty samples. $10 a month for 5 samples. So I'm trying all that stuff, and it's been overall really awesome! :) 

Well this month I got an eyeshadow primer, which I've ALWAYS wanted to try. Because my oily skin just leaves my eyeshadow creasy and smeary by the end of the day.. or completely disappeared.

I've been using a face primer to help control that oil (WORKING!!! but that's for another blog) and Proactiv (ALSO WORKING!!!) but unless i used my Hard Candy liquid eyeshadow, all my shadows would crease and disappear.

So I was very excited to try this. It's called "Put a Lid on It" by the Balm.  I put on my foundation and primer and then put a VERY TINY bit of this on both of my eyelids and let it dry a moment.

I used some eyeshadow I got for Christmas, in one of those little make up sets that aren't usually very expensive, but they have cute stuff... it just never lasts.  Well.... with that primer, i was blown away! I put on all my makeup at 1pm.  At 4am when I got home, it was still on. that's what..... 15 HOURS!!!!!!!! 

SOOOO if you thought I was gonna have that amazing of a result and not tell the entire world, you're crazzzzyyyyyy!!!!

HAHAHA!!!! Really.. if you have eyeshadow creases and staying problems, I would suggest trying it out.  Blew my mind for real!!!!! 

So if you wanna try it out, I found it HERE at Birchbox for $18.

I know.. seems like a lot of money.. .but GIRLLLLLLLL, if you wanna look good all day and night, I wouldn't pass it up. When I run out, I'm gonna cry!!!!!!

OOH! And I forgot to mention....  I normally get the mascara spots on my eyelids, you kno where your eyelashes touch your eyelids... i hate that. THAT DID NOT HAPPEN EITHER!!

party on, wayne.  

ooh ahh! Beauty on a Budget

Hey guys!


I don't know if you're like me at all.... but I'm a LITTLE addicted to makeup and beauty products. If I had my way (and the money) this blog would be nothing but telling you about awesome new make up products, with a hint of electronics and nerdy stuff too. haha

But since I'm on a tight budget, I'll try to help you out! And let you know a few things I've found that work well for me, and maybe they will work for you too!!!


#1 Wet and Wild Intuitive Blend -- $3

Now I bought this foundation, because I can never find a foundation that covers yet doesn't leave me feeling greasy.. or too dry. I have oily skin, so i do NOT need any help with oils and things that soak up too fast. My skin is like a sponge, it's quite annoying. Now this foundation is good.... IF you have oily or dry skin. It goes on and smells and feels like a moisturizer. It has these little beads that pop and match your skin tone. Now I got the light shade.. and it was a tiniest bit too light.  My main complaint on it, is that it doesn't really cover.  If you are just having a day when you want a little smoothing, it's great for that. But not for blemishes! However Wet and Wild makes a concealer stick that actually works well!!!! I believe i bought the concealer for $1 !!!!

#2 L.A. Colors eyeshadow palettes -- $1 

Oh how I adore the colors that LA Colors uses. I have like 5 of these palettes I believe!! They are So much fun to play with!!!! I especially love the bright pink and purples.  Now like I said, these are a $1 at Dollar general where I buy them.  And like I said.. oily skin, soaks up everything. BUT if you use an eyeshadow primer or a liquid cream colored shadow underneath, voila! Colors all day!!!!! :) You just have to play with what you got. I've got a great liquid eyeshadow next...

#3 Hard Candy Eye Def-- $6

Ahhh the love of my life!! happened to buy this at wal-mart once... and I don't know how I lived without it!!! In this exact shade too!!!! Called "What Sandy Says Goes" hahahahah what a silly name!!! But I'm telling you, it's got this little glitter bits in it.. sparkles. Makes your eyes pop open! I get compliments anytime I wear it. Seriously. I can't imagine it looks bad on anyone!! And they have tons of shades... just picked up a few more this weekend :) 

Now like I said, if you get those cheap LA Colors eyeshadows for fun colors.. put this on first, let it dry.. and then put all the color you want on it! It will stay ALL day. I promise!!!! No streaks. No smudging. I love it. I could go on.... but  I won't!!!!

#4 Cover Girl Professional Super Thick Lash-- $4-8 

Now I was at a store in town... happened to stumble upon this on sale for $4... and I think you can never have enough mascara.. so grabbed it up. And I'm GLAD I did. I'm usually the kind of girl that uses a volumizing mascara and a lengthening mascara too . I've never had a lot of luck on ones that are supposed to do both.  Like normally I've been using Lash Stiletto, which is GREAT for length. But I added this one and it really helps plump up those babies!!! I'm quite enjoying it!! I love a random find like that! 

Well there we go. Some beauty on a budget!!!! I hope those help you out for today!!!!! but Seriously.... go get some of that Hard Candy.... just do it! I should be their spokesperson.. HIRE ME!!! HIReEEE MEEEEE!!! hahahhhahaahah!!!

peace guys!
