MAC Purchase from King of Prussia Mall

Posted on November 1, 2015 | Leave a comment

MAC Purchase

It’s safe to say I’ll be making a trip back to the King of Prussia Mall. I don’t know when though. Finding a MAC store at the mall is enough for me to make a return visit. LOL! This was a pleasant experience for me. Everyone was so helpful and attentive. Needless to say I made a purchase.

MAC Purchase 2

  • MAC Matte Lipstick – Sin
  • MAC Eye Brows – Spiked
  • MAC Lip Pencil – Nightmoth

The matte lip is very popular for Fall. Sin is a great shade for me to wear this season.

MAC Lip Swatch

I must say the eye brow pencil in Spiked is my all time favorite. I have used other pencils, brow powders, and eyebrow gels. I always seem to find my way back to Spiked. It’s tried and true.

I purchased the lip pencil in Nightmoth in the past. I decided to become reacquainted with this deep plum shade again.

Lush Purchase from King of Prussia Mall

Posted on November 1, 2015 | Leave a comment

Lush Purchase                            I was on the other side of Pennsylvania for a college visit in Philadelphia. I also spent some quality time with my cousin and her family. One place we visited was the King of Prussia Mall. That place is huge. I was delighted to find a Lush Fresh Handmade Cosmetics store. The store is a nice size. The sales associates were very helpful.

Lush Purchase 2                         My daughters and I are already fans of the Love Lettuce Fresh Face Mask. I also wanted to try the Cosmetic Warrior Fresh Face Mask. Lush Purchase 4

Lush Purchase 5

With the weather cooling off I still want to maintain smooth skin. Rough with the Smooth was recommended to me. Lush Purchase 3

I know my skin will thank me. 🙂

Crown Set

I’m not going to say I didn’t need the 10 Piece Blue Syntho Set from Crown Brush. Even my oldest commented on how I have another brush set. I hope she isn’t keeping track of my Crown Brush orders from HauteLook. LOL!  I will say the Oil Control Blotting Paper Trio was definitely a need.

Crown Set 4

Crown Set 5                          It’s hard not to place an order because of the quality and affordability of these brushes.

By the way, Crown Brush is currently on HauteLook again. 😉

Posted on September 27, 2015 | Leave a comment

Well you see what had happened was, Crown Brush was on HauteLook again. LOL! I was on the fence if I was going to make another Crown Brush purchase so soon. I decided to get the HauteLook Exclusive 15 Color Foundation Palette and Brush. This deal was too good to pass up.

Crown Brush Purchase from HauteLook (my original obsession)

Posted on August 29, 2015 | 5 comments

Hautelook Crown

It has been a while since I last made a Crown Brush purchase from HauteLook. I remember placing orders every time Crown Brush was on HauteLook (BTW Crown Brush is on HauteLook this weekend). What caught my attention this time around was the HauteLook Exclusive 10-Piece Syntho Brush Set for $5.00. I did manage to get a few other things too. LOL!

Hautelook Crown2

I was definitely was in need of a mixing tray.

I’ve owned a few of the angle liner/spoolie brushes in the past. These brushes have gone missing from my room for some strange reason. Hmmm

A few of my concealer brushes have gone missing as well. I guess that is what happens when you have daughters.

Hautelook Crown3

Hautelook Crown4

I am very pleased with this purchase. It looks like I’m going to have to make room for future Crown Brush purchases from HauteLook. 😉
