Happy Sunday. I hope every is all snuggled in and warm. We are waiting for a cold snap here in VA.

So yesterday I had some time to kill and went into Rite Aid and hit a sale. Well all but the Aveeno was on sale. I think all in all I spent $20 before taxes.

Aveeno Postively Radient Daily Cleansing Pad

This was a last minute grab. It said it had an exfoliant side. I was curious so I decided I would give it a try. I believe it cost $8.

Sally Hansen Salon Effects

I have used this product before and love that I can have a cool design on my nails that I didnt have to do myself. A select few were on sale for 75% off and only had to pay $2. Im going to keep this one on hand to use for Valentines day since its a cute pink style.

Loreal Undying Ember Lipstick

There were a selct few of lipsticks on their way out. I picked up two darker neutrals for me. Or what I consider neutrals. This was 50% off and ended up being $4.

This is a bit redder than what it really is. But its a smooth formula and I cant wait to use it.

Intensely Mauve

This is the next color is something I wouldnt get since I tend to not like mauves. I am more of a bold girl but since it was on sale why the heck not

Revlons super lusteriouslip gloss in coral reef

31 May

Walgreens had a bit of the last chance buy so I picked this up for $2. Ive been trying to find just the right coral color that works on paler skin tones. I just cant find it. I was hoping this gloss would have a nice color to it so I could layer it on a color lip stick I bought. To my disappointment it didnt. I had to apply three layers before I even got color. Then my lips looked ridiculous on how much I had in. It looked liked I dipped my lips in a whole vat of vasaline.

Needless to say the overall out come was disapointing. Thou not surprising since I really only like Revlon for thier foundations. Good thing this was on sale. Ill use it top of light lipsticks maybe. Here are some pics.

NARS Vandages. A littlr fall color to my lips

7 Mar

I love fall and its colors. I like to choose my lipsticks based on it really. I have very few bright color. Im kind of pale as it amd the brights acentuates that, not that its a bad thing. But Im not always about having a neon lit lips all the time.

A few months ago browsing thru Sephora amd came upon the lovely NARS vandages. Its a nice burnt brown/siennawith a touch of burgundy undertones. It has some of the best texture to a lipstick, it is creamy and moisturizing. And as a person who has a tendency to have dry lips its great and doesnt cake up. Also even thou its a darker color you can wear it all year round and a great neutral.
