I took advantage of another great sale courtesy of HauteLook. This time around I purchased lip colors from NYX Cosmetics. Whenever NYX is on HauteLook, they always have a great selection on their makeup sets. I purchased the Raging Red Lip Set and the Lip Trio Set.

I purchased the BH Cosmetics 12 Piece Pink Brush set when it was on sale for $9.00 during a back to school sale on their website. This is the second time I purchased a brush set from BH Cosmetics. The first set I purchased from them was the 24 Piece Synthetic Brush Set. I couldn’t pass up buying another brush set especially when it was $9.00.
I have not experienced any shedding with these brushes while using them. They hold the product well and the eye brushes are fantastic. The face brushes are soft and don’t scratch. The brushes didn’t shed when I cleaned them either. The case is really sturdy too.
BH Cosmetics has another winner on its hands with the 12 Piece Pink Brush Set. This set with worth checking out. 🙂

It seems the only time I buy false eyelashes is when they are on sale at Kmart. Once again the Ardell False Eyelashes were on sale for $2.69 each. I stocked up on a few more.
If I wanted to wear false eyelashes everyday it would be the Ardell #110. These lashes are still my favorite. I get that natural full look with them.
I also purchased the Ardell #109 just to add more variety to my false eyelashes collection. I can still achieve that natural full look with these lashes.
I also noticed some hair accessories on clearance. I have really enjoyed wearing my natural hair thanks to finding cute accessories like these.

I’ve actually had this brush set for a little while. I bought this brush set while it was on sale (BH Cosmetics always has great sales). I did read the reviews on the set before I made this purchase. Two of the criticisms were the brushes shed and they don’t hold the product well. I did not experience that when using these brushes. Another criticism I read was that it was a problem the brushes weren’t labeled. That didn’t bother me either. If I can find another use for a makeup of brush, I will do it. I also had no problem s cleaning these brushes.
I found the BH Cosmetics 24 Piece Synthetic Signature Brush Set to be a great deal whether you are a beginner or more advanced. This is a great brush set to take when traveling. You have every brush you will need for makeup application.

I recently noticed many of my combs are missing. I have an idea what happened to them (my youngest daughter Naomi). I did get better at finger detangling though. I was debating if I was going to ask Naomi for my combs back of just buy new ones. I found it was much easier to buy more combs, LOL!
I have 4C type (tightly coiled) hair and that calls for a wide toothcomb. I find it easier to part my hair using a rattail comb. I am going to hide these combs from Naomi.
I think I may be turning into a product junkie. 😉 The Roots of Nature Butter Whip Coil Cream ™ was marked down at Sally Beauty Supply.

This was the first time I ever bought The Oprah Magazine. There was so much hype about the September 2013 issue on the Internet. My curiosity got the best of me. Oprah looks fantastic on the cover rocking that afro wig’! I wanted to read the article first and not just post a picture of the cover on my blog.
I’m actually glad I bought the magazine. It was very informative. Various women also shared their hair journeys in the article. The article also included a glossary of terms. Everything women do to their hair was discussed in the article. I do recommend picking up a copy of the Let’s Talk About Hair September 2013 issue. You are not alone in the hair struggle. 😉
