Random Haul! 12-28-11

This is really, really late, but I'm out for a snow day today, so I should probably work on some catch up. This was from last Tuesday. I went into the city to make some returns and picked this stuff up. 

Forever 21: 

 I Love Chunky Glitter Nail Polish set. I haven't exactly opened this yet, but from what I can see it has a chunky gold glitter with multiple sizes, a more dense chunky red glitter with multiple sizes, a chunky multi-size glitter with red and purple and teal glitter, a chunky mauve-y pink glitter, a chunky purple glitter that may have some holo pieces.. I'm not sure, a chunky blue and silver glitter, and a chunky silver glitter.

Eye Glitter Palette. I haven't tried this either, but I did poke the silver one on the far right side and it's got a jelly texture and it seems to get weird when you mess with it... The jelly gets cloudy, or something...Strange. 

Ulta:

The Urban Decay Naked Palette! :D I am in love. I use this everyday. All that everyone says about this is completely true. It's amazing. I'll do swatches and a review later.

Too Faced Shadow Insurance. 'Nuff said. Straight from the tube on the left, blended on the right.

That's all I have for now. Until later!

EOTD: Seventeen Magazine Look!

Hey ladies!

Today I'm showing you my Eye of the Day-a look I found in one of my Seventeen Magazines. This is the look I tried to achieve:

 I really liked the orange lipstick, and now I am on a mission to buy some... Anyway, here is the look I came up with, and I'm pretty happy with it!

This was:
Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eyeliner-Gunmetal (grey)-bottom lashline
Revlon Colorstay Liquifeye liquid liner-Black-eyeliner
Cover Girl Eye Enhancers-Platina (silver)-lid
Sephora Eye Shadow-Aspen Summit (sparkly white)-inner corner
Laura Mercier Long Lash Mascara-Black
Sephora Mascara Lash Plumper-Black-(over Long Lash)

I love this look. I think it might become my everyday eye look. :) I also wore Stila Lip and Cheek Stain in Raspberry Crush with this, but it wore off before I took these pictures. I must have re-applied it 5 times today. I love the stuff dearly, but it doesn't stay on for more than 30 minutes! Gah, it's worth it. :)

Review: Tarte: Lights, Camera, Lashes!

Hi ladies!

So as seen in my last post, this is the mascara my friend left at my house-Tarte Lights, Camera, Action!-and I figured I would do a review of it!

Here is what Sephora says about it:

What it is:
A lengthening, curling, volumizing, and conditioning mascara.

What it does:
Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes! 4-in-1 Mascara is what we call a push-up bra for your lashes—a 4-in-1 (lengthening, curling, volumizing, and conditioning) dermatologist- and clinically-proven to increase the appearance of lash volume by 424% after applying giving dramatic, thick and sexy lashes.

What it is formulated WITHOUT:
- Parabens
- Sulfates
- Synthetic Fragrances
- Synthetic Dyes
- Petro-Chemicals
- Phthalates

What else you need to know:
This mascara contains Skinvigorating™ ingredients like rice bran wax to help lengthen lashes and carnauba wax, an emollient wax that ensures a smooth application. ProVitamin B5 treats and thickens lashes, olive esters condition, treat, and protect lashes, and the mascara also contains mineral pigments known for their soothing and softening properties. Dermatologist-tested.

Size: 0.24 oz

424%! Yes please!! It really does look nice:

 A shot of the brush

 This was:

1. Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eyeliner-Zero (black), Electric (light blue)

2. Revlon Liquid Eyeliner- (black)

3. Tarte-Lights, Camera, Lashes!- Rich Black

So, yea! It's really pretty. And for $19, I think it lives up to expectations. Not saying I would buy it for myself. I didn't love it THAT much. :)

Thanks for reading!
