What’s New at the Drugstore

Hey everybody, happy Monday! I am just recovering from a power nap I had, I just love naps, I don’t normally take naps, but when I do I feel so refreshed and my mind is clear and ready to keep going, but today we are not talking about naps. Today I will be talking about what’s new at the drugstore, it’s been a while since I did one of these, and lately all the brands have decided to release new products, I will be showing you what they are and giving you some reviews on some I have already tried. So stay tuned and enjoy!

Until Next Time,

xoxo

March Beauty Favorites

It is that time of the month again, yes when I talk about my beauty favorites. March was a month that flew by pretty fast, but at the same time there were days when I just needed a break LOL. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed your March month, and are starting to enjoy warmer days now that spring arrived (I know I am).

BTW, you may notice in the video that I have my hair very very straight, well I did a tutorial on that which will be up very soon, so if you have wavy hair and want to get rid of it stay tuned.

Until Next Time,

Spring Nails

I’ve been hearing here and there that spring is right around the corner, I think I’ve mentioned in a couple of posts as well, but dang I am so cold today that I don’t see winter giving me a break any time soon. Anyways, that didn’t stop me from playing with spring colors on my nails.

On Saturday, I went and got my gel nails removed because 1. They grew 2. I didn’t want them anymore and 3. I needed some color in my nails. You could say I got overboard, but I think I saw a similar look in a post I read last week and I saw it in a YouTube video. I just thought it was so cute, and even though it took some Frankenstein Collection of Nail Polishes I am very happy with the results, only hopping that this will last the entire week.

Nail Polishes I used:

• Wet n Wild – I Need a Refresh Mint
• Nabi – Neon Light Pink
• Sinful Colors – Unicorn
• Essie – Turqoise & Caicos
• Revlon – Gum Drop

Until Next Time,

What to buy with $5.00 bucks?

I remember when I was a kid and my grandpa used to give me my allowance, oh glorious days where with only a dollar you could make the world your own… or at least that’s what I thought while making the candy man rich. Today I am learning about the value of money, but what would I do if my grandpa was here and he gave me $5.00 dollars to spend? Well maybe I will hit the drugstore (ok that sounded bad) and get some beauty items (ok that is less creepy).

Here I have some ideas of what I could buy:

• Nivea Lip Butter Tins $3.99. These are the hype right now, they are all over beauty blogs and YouTube channels, what are they? Well basically cute lip butters in a nice and small tin. I haven’t tried them yet but I would really like to, in flavors from caramel cream kiss to raspberry rose kiss they seem to be a nice product to carry in your makeup bag. I had tried other products from Nivea and I really liked them so I am guessing this would be a good purchase.

• Jordana Easyshine Glossy Lip Color $1.99. I remember when I was at high school and Jordana used to be a brand only sold in a small store near my house, this was cheap makeup and not that bad but not that good. Nowadays, Jordana has improved and has surprised me, my sister got this one a while ago in Watermelon Juice and I used it and instantly fell in love, it smells watermelon and it is a bit sheer but while applying it through the day the color intensifies giving you these bright pink lips. And for the price you cannot go wrong.

• Wet n Wild Trio $2.99. You can never go wrong with these little palettes, they are pigmented, very easy to blend and you can create the coolest looks with these. My favorite ones: Silent Treatment and Walking on Eggshells.

• Wet n Wild Lipstick $.99 cents. With that price I could buy me 4 different colors which is amazing, I love these lippies because they work amazing they are not sheer and they don’t dry my lips (either way I always apply lip balm before).

What would you buy with $5.00?

My Weekend in Pictures, Empties of the Month, & More.

Hey everybody so today I have my weekend in pictures. So let’s get started first of all on Friday I went with my sister and did a little bit of rush shopping. And for rush I mean it was 8:00 pm and we had to get a complete outfit for her, before the mall closed at 9:00 pm So we just said Challenge Accepted!!. And we were so lucky we found everything she needed (‘Cuz she can be very picky sometimes).

In the meantime I was able to look at these stilettos/flats, talking about fashionable statement pieces for this fall. These things looked like WOW! If I had to choose I would definitely go for the flats, but that’s just me.

Funky Zebra with Pink Lips

Hey everybody, Happy Friday, I am such in a good mood today, probably because this weekend I will have a three day off, the truth is that things have been hectic and I do need a little bit of rest. But anyways I wanted to share with all of you my look for today.

Inspiration Look

Hi everyone, so today I got my picture taken for the presentation of my makeup class, I am so excited I cannot believe time flew by so fast. Anyways I wanted to share some pictures of my look.

Silent Treatment: 3 Looks One Palette

Hi everyone, so today I have these amazing 3 looks using only one trio from wet n wild. I am talking about the Silent Treatment palette. You can find this in almost any drugstore for around $3.00 USD. One could think that you can only create one look, but these palettes are very versatile. You can create with this a look from day to night which is what I tried to do here.

The $20.00 Challenge (TAG)

Hey everyone, so these past weeks I’ve been seeing a TAG and I thought that it would be fun to try it on. This is called the $20.00 challenge, related to makeup. So the plot goes like this, imagine that you go out of town and the airline lost your luggage (because that never happens). So you need some makeup, and you only can spend $20.00 dollars for that. What do you do??
