A Closer Look: Maybelline The Nudes Eyeshadow Palette

Maybelline Nudes Palette

Maybelline released the Nudes Palette this past Summer. I didn’t immediately jump at the opportunity to purchase this palette. I already have nude eyeshadow palettes: Naked, Naked2, Naked Basics, Nude’tude. I bought this palette when it was 40% off at Rite Aid. I also used a $2.00 off coupon.

The Nudes Palette comes with twelve eyeshadows. I think it’s clever how the eyeshadows in this palette are grouped together. When you look at the palette there are three quads, four trios, and six duos. Thirteen looks can easily be created just by how the eyeshadows are grouped together. The Maybelline website does explain how to create thirteen different looks. This is great for beginners. Those of us who are more experienced the possibilities are endless.

The Nudes Palette has a nice balance of matte and shimmer eyeshadows. Two of the colors came across really sheer on me when I swatched them. My skin tone is darker though. I can’t wait to play with this palette. 🙂

Mini Maybelline Haul from Rite Aid

I decided to take advantage of the 40% off Maybelline cosmetics this week. It also helped that I had three Maybelline coupons to use.

Maybelline Rite Aid Purchase

I already have my fair share of red lip colors. I saw the Burgundy Beauty Color Sensational® lipstick and decided to get it. This shade is perfect for Fall.

I am already a fan of Maybelline’s mascaras. They are my favorite drug store brand. I wanted to try out the Great Lash® Real Impact™ Mascara just to see how the formula is.

I was on the fence as to whether or not I was going to purchase the Nudes Palette. I already have nude eyeshadow palettes. Was having another palette going to be redundant? This palette being on sale and having a $2.00 off coupon helped in making my decision to purchase this palette.

The total price of this purchase after I used $5.50 in coupons was $9.17 (the price before the 7% sales tax was added).

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.

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.

Rite Aid Haul: After Halloween Clearance

After Halloween clearance doesn’t have to mean buying candy. This is what I found on clearance.

I don’t necessarily have to wait until next Halloween to wear these false eyelashes.

Rite Aid Haul: Featuring Maybelline and Kiss

On my recent trip to Rite Aid this is what I purchased.

I only applied one coat of this mascara. I really like the brush for the bottom
lashes.

I also saw the Fall 2013 makeup collection from Maybelline. I purchased only one lipstick and that shade was Midnight Plum. This color reminds me of Cyber from MAC and Talk That Talk from the RiRi Hearts MAC Collection. I really love Midnight Plum. I may have to pick up another lipstick in that shade.

I need to get back into doing my nails. I purchased the Kiss Nail Artist. I have enough nail polish. No more excuses. 😉

Rite Aid Haul (I was only supposed to be buying school supplies)

I recently visited Rite-Aid to get school supplies for my youngest daughter Naomi. She tagged along to make sure I bought the ink pens she really liked. While at Rite-Aid these items also found their way into my cart.

Maybelline Baby Lips Electro Moisturizing Lip Balm in Pink Shock  Baby Lips great at moisturizing your lips while providing a hint of color. Naomi wanted to try one for herself. She usually wears lip gloss.

The Limited Edition Great Lash Colored Mascaras are back. I like the colors this year better than the ones last year. Naomi picked I See Blue for herself.

Sally Hansen Fuzzy Coat Special Effect Textured Nail Color in Tight Knit. Naomi saw these nail polishes at the nail salon she frequents. She wanted to try one for herself.

Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Moroccan Sleek Oil Treatment. I use this oil as a pre-poo and have been really happy with the results. The other bottle I had ran out thanks to Naomi.
