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 Purchase 3

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.

MAC Brow Pencil Swatch

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

The Body Shop Haul

Posted on June 28, 2014 | 3 comments

I had a Groupon I needed to use before it expired. The Groupon was $30 for in-store merchandise at the Body Shop. I will admit I was a little overwhelmed when I entered the Ross Park Mall store. The Body Shop was having a sale. I had no idea what to purchase with my Groupon. Lucky for me Christopher, the sales associate gave me some suggestions.

Here is another reason why I love HauteLook. I can always count on HauteLook to have fantastic beauty deals. The Pucker Up Lip Beauty Bag was too good to pass up. When I originally purchased this lip beauty bag it was being offered for $24.00. I checked HauteLook today and the beauty bag is being offered for $20.00.

Mini Maybelline Haul from Rite Aid

Posted on February 28, 2014 | 4 comments

What can I say, Maybelline does it again! I never thought I would be a fan of their lipsticks. When Maybelline released the Color Sensational® the Buffs I knew I would purchase at least two lipsticks.

Image

Image

Image(L-R) Touchable Taupe, Untainted Spice

These lipsticks are very pigmented and creamy.

I also purchased the Face Studio Master™ Glaze in Plums Up. I really love this cheek color. The color is very pigmented so a little goes a long way but the color is buildable. Goes on smoothly and blends so nicely.

Target Haul: Featuring CoverGirl

Posted on November 8, 2013 | 2 comments

I stopped by Target recently. That seems to be the only store where I can find the CoverGirl Queen Collection All Day Flawless 3 in 1 Foundation in my shade. By the way, my shade is Spicy Brown.

I ended up buying a few more things too.

Image

Image

Image

I wanted to try the Flamed Out Shadow Pencils. I chose Gold Flame and Melted Caramel Flame. CoverGirl released a new eyeliner. I bought the Ink It By Perfect Point Plus All Day Eye Pencil in Black Ink.

It’s no secret my fondness of Maybelline’s mascaras. I’ve been curious about the Flamed Out Max Volume Mascara from CoverGirl. I was pleasantly surprised when I tried this mascara. It made my lashes thicker and longer with no clumps.

To stay on trend with the deep berry and wine lip colors for Fall, I chose Fine Wine lipstick from the Queen Collection.
