Hard Candy Glossaholic Glosses

Ok so I LOVE these glosses!! I picked one up just for the heck of it, even though  im not a huge glitter gloss fan. BUT found that the specks of glitter  has more of a plumping action(at least for me) in that they made my lips look full&gorgeous! I would definitely go pick some of them up!
I have:
Coffee Cafe (because I LOVE my coffee lol)
Lush(coral with gold flecks)
Fairy(Pale pink with irredecent flecks)

Gorgeous(a dark barbie pink with irredecent flecks)

Smashbox!!!

The other day I was browsing at my px (a small mall on post for army members&family that has great discounts) so  of course makeup junkie that I am, I soon found myself in the cosmetic section! They have everything from n.y.c. to shiseido,too faced, philosophy and of course smashbox! Only thing missing: MAC!  But anyways the makeup atrist on duty pulled out this lipgloss collection to show me and my first thought was yeah... if only I could justify spending 100+ on 6 lipglosses I would. So you can imagine my ears perked up when she said "well its only 25 dollars&benefits make a wish foundation"  Help the kids AND get some higher end lip glosses  for only 25... that thought process took about 0.2 seconds LOL. I love these glosses! very nice vanilla smell, and GREAT  staying power? Yes I think so :D

NOTD "Vintage Darling"

So I Love red nail polish! I have tons of different shades of red polish, red nails and vintage go together  like cookies and creme... another vintage thing :) I'm wearing Revlon nail polish in "Revlon Red" I LOVE it !!!! Definitely a must and my ring is from a vintage shop downtown nashville that I forgot the name of : /

I have.... a girl crush/style icon LOL

SO Last night I was watching Gossip Girl and I fell in love with Serenas style. What girl doesn't want to look gorgeous&flawless without even trying like she does??!?! I envy everything about her!! I love that she's not some size -000000 girl but a normal size. I went on google and found these images... I think her style speaks for herself!

Anyways she totally is my new style icon!! I will definitely be keeping her style in mind while I go shopping!!

Whose your style icon?

sallys haul...

Ok so this haul I spend any money I swear!! lol A family friend that is like an aunt to me came to see my husband and I on her vaycay so of course we ended up where all beauty junkies always seem to find themselves: The beauty store. We ran into sallys and I had coupons from being a sallys beauty club member (for only five dollars a year its sooooo worth it!) anyways I picked up some sallys brand makeup and some femme couture lipglosses:

So the baked eyeshadows up on top are ehhh for me. The First one is a sheer wash of gold. The middle sea blue green color is the most pigmented out of all of them, its actaully wearable (seeing as how I can't pull off bright colors, this is perfect for me). The purple one is very very sheer don't let it fool you. So all in all for 99 cents its not bad. The Square baked eyeshadows are MUCH better. The color charcoal is a great black with sparkles, great for a night out. The next one called auburn is a pretty mix between burnt orange and scarlett with tiny gold flecks. Super flattering for us redheads. :) Next up is a sallys blush in "388404"  Its a very matte rosy nude, has great staying power once its on,its on. Sallys' Highlighter in "388420 Soft Lights" is a fantastic highlighter for those of you girls with pale skin like me. Last but not least are the glosses.The first is sallys brand in "388460" Its a sheer peachy color with red and gold flecks, my only complaint about this is if you try to layer it it gets gloopy gel like= EWW lol. Then another sallys lipgloss in "388383" Its a very opaque dark rosy pink, I like the consistency, the color. Definitely a buy.The last two are by Femme Couture First one is "Light Pink" Just an all around good pink gloss with flecks of shimmer in it,Vanilla Scented and Creamy consistency. The next is in Peach, again Vanilla Scented and Creamy consistency.Nice Pinky Peach with little gold flecks.

Then my auntie insisted that she buy me something for my birthday

My first Milani Cosmetic

Ok so I have heard alot of beauty gurus rave about this Makeup line and with the product I bought in particular to try out. It was the "Milani Eyeshadow Runway Eyes in Bronze Doll"

So the review overall I'm kind of let down to be honest. When I picked it up, I thought it was glitter all the way through the shadow only to get home to find it was only on the surface. Huge let down for shelling out $8 for one eyeshadow that probably now I wont wear But oh well...
                                              
                                                 Have any of you guys found a great Milani Product?

*Wet n Wild Megaslicks lip pencil in "Mixed Berry" Its a frosty pink and I hate frost lipsticks!  so not a good one for me

*Revlon Just Bitten "Gothic" A dark red lipstain but can be a light red if you do a barely there stain.Plus the balm is awesome
