Jumping into the You Tube Scene

Hey!!!

So I decided after months of blogging, that I would attempt to film some videos for you tube. These are just beginner videos, and I plan on doing more live videos once I get a better quality camera, because my web cam sucks!!! Check out the two videos I've posted recently.

Ordered Placed!!! More NYX Products to Come!

Hey!!

So this morning when I woke up, I placed an order for more NYX Cosmetics from Cherry Culture. This time I ordered 4 lip pencils, 2 eye pencils, 1 cream rouge blush, 5 lipsticks, 1 liquid eye liner, a duo sharpener, another eyeshadow base, and lastly, 1 mega shine lip gloss. This time around I decided to build my collection by purchasing lip and eye products. My next order will be from Coastal Scents, where I'll order some eye shadows, brushes, and a blush/contour palette.

My order should be here by Thursday, so you all will definitely see another post with swatches! I also paid less than $50 for the entire purchase, and shipping was FREE!!! Can't beat that!

SN: I decided that every time I make a big purchase it will be no more than $50. And so far I've been doing great!

To purchase NYX Cosmetics at discounted prices go to:
www.cherryculture.com
www.nonpareilboutique.com

I promise you won't be disappointed!!!

New Products: Blush & Bronzer from ICING!!!


Hey!!!

So I went browsing through the mall where I worked at, and found out that Icing Accessories now sells a line of makeup products that include eye shadow palettes, blushes, bronzers, nail polishes, false lashes, etc.

So I picked up two products, a new blush and a bronzer. BLUSH is a MUST!!! It definitely brings life to the face. Both products were under $8 each. Check them out below:
