Ocean Blue Smoky Eye

Hello my MJF followers,
I've been wanting to try my new NYX Electric Blue eyeliner so decited to do an all blue or ocean blue eye look.


The products I used:
E.L.F eyelid primer pearl
NYX jumbo eye pencil Cottage Cheese
NYX Eyeshadow singles Ocean (middle of eye lid), Atlantic (outer v and crease color), Silk (brow bone highlight)
NYX Glam Shadow Player (inner part of eyelid)
NYX Liquid Eye Liner Electric Blue

I'm really happy how this blue eye look came out and really like the Electic Blue eyeliner.
I used mostly NYX products which if you don't know already that I love NYX and if you have not tried any NYX products you are totally missing out.

What do you think of this eye look?

Until next time,

Blue and Lemon Green Zigzag Mani

Hello my MJF followers,
I'm here to show you a zigzag mani I did with two of my polishes that bought on sale at Ulta.



The products I used for this mani:
Essence colour & go: miss universe
Layla: 06 Limoncello
Milani Quick Shine Top Coat
Jordana Calcium Boost Coat
Plastic Bag (to paint on to cut zigzag pattern)
Craft scissors (zigzag pattern)
Tweezers (to peel off the polish on the plastic bag)

I decided to try the plastic bag and craft scissor method to create this really cool mani that I've seen people do on Youtube and Instagram.
 Its pretty easy all you do is paint the polish on a plastic bag and wait for it to dry then use tweezers to pull it off of the bag and cut with craft scissors. The last thing you do is stick it on your nail like a decal then put the top coat on to seal it. 
If you have not try it this method you should it comes out really nice. I really love this mani and can't wait to try this method with other colors and craft scissor patterns. I'm also in love with Limoncello its so pretty and even pretty than I thought it be.

What do you think of this mani?

Until next time,

Awhile ago I went to Grocery outlet and pick up some things I need and found things I wanted.

If you been reading my blog hauls you know that I love epielle Cleansing Tissues and I was on my last package so I pick up more in the scent Vitamin C which is a citrus scent that this my favorite out of all of the scents.
I also found a really pretty Essie polish and figured I give it a try. Its in the color Naughty Nautical  which was only $2.99.

So what do you think of my small GO haul?

Until next time,

Ulta Haul

Hello my MJF followers,
I'm here to show you another haul this time its from Ulta.
I've been seeing many people getting good deals on the clearance items at Ulta, so I went to two different ones and this what I found.


I found a Covergirl flamed out shadow pencil for $1.97, Essence colour & go in miss universe (dark blue with purple and blue glitter) for $.99. I got four china glaze in Graffiti Glitter (green hex and small glitter with black hex  and small glitter and bar glitter), Scattered & Tattered (red hex and small glitter and black bar and hex glitter), Mosaic Madness (blue hex and small glitter with black hex and small glitter and bar), and Metallic Metamorphosis which is a tranzition polish in a gun metal color. They where all $.01 cent each yep I said $.01. I also go two of Layla polishes in 11(light brown with pink micro glitter) and 06 (lemon green glittery). They were $.49 each.The last two was Maybelline color show street art in Green graffiti (green and black large hex, bar,and small hex glitters),   nighttime noise (blue and black large hex, bar, and small hex glitters). They were $.97 each.


I went to see if the other ulta had any polishes on sale like I got but they did not. But I did find this cute owl wallet that I could not pass up. It was on sale for $9.97.

I was really happy find so many polish I like on sale for less then a dollar. I can't wait to wear all of may polishes. I really love my new owl wallet too.

What do you think about my Ulta haul?

Until next time,

Avon Big Eye Pencil Blue Smoky Eye

Hello my MJF followers,
I'm here to show you a Blue smoky eye look.


The products I used:
E.L.F eyelid primer sheer
Avon Big Color Eye Pencils Aquamarine (eyelid color), Blue Starlight (outer v)
E.L.F liquid eyeliner Black

I really like how this eye look came out. Its was pretty and easy because you only need a few things. It would be a great easy eye look for the summer because the Avon eye pencils are water proof but you would have to wear a different black eyeliner because the e.l.f eyeliner I used is not water proof.

What do you think of this eye look?

Until next time,

Half and Half Mani

Hello my MJF followers,
I'm here with another mani but this time I could not decide on one color so I tried a half and half design.

No flash outdoor lighting

With Flash
The products I used:
Jordana Calcium Boost base coat
Revlon Brilliant Strength Entice and Mesmerize
Milani Quick Shine Top Coat

I really like this mani and was so happy I bought these polishes from big lots. This polish lasted longer on my nails than most. Even with out top coat it was really shiny but with the top coat it made it even shiner. I had many compliments on this mani. I was also sad to take it off. I'm in love with the milani quick shine top coat and might have to buy more if I can find it in the new bottles.

What do you think of my mani?

Until next time,

Neon Ruffian Mani

Hello my MJF followers,
I thought I posted this mani but I was wrong so here is a mani I did a while ago.

No flash outdoor lighting

With flash
The products I used for this mani:
Jordana Calcium Boost Base Coat
Milani Neon Totally 80's (base color) and Fresh Teal (top color)
Super Dry Quick Dry Seche Vite Top Coat

I really like this mani but was really bummed that it got bubbles :0(. I think it got bubbles because it was so hot that day or the top coat made it bubble. I might have to try it again because I love the color combo.

What do you think of my mani?

Until next time,
Mel



Big Lots Collective Haul

Hello my MJF followers,
I'm here with a big lots collective haul.


I really loved the wild poppy scent from Bodycology so when I saw that they had a body wash I had to get one and it was $2.00. They also had small fragrance mists for $.25 cents so I got another wild poppy and the one I did not get in the regular size which is coconut lime twist. I also go some pressed powder by Wet n Wild in two colors one is ivory and the other one is in natural because right now I'm tan so I would use ivory. When I'm pale during the winter I will use the natural which is lighter and they were only $1.80 each.


The other haul is all nail polish by Revlon in there brilliont strength and they were only $1.50 each so I had to get all of the colors that caught my eye. The colors I got were Enthrall which is a greenish brown color that would be perfect for the fall and winter months. I also got Mesmerize which is a bright light blue cream. The third on I got is called Fascinate which is a purple with pink glitter so pretty. The fourth one was called Beguile which is a dark blue with teal blue glitter which will be also be perfect for fall and winter months too. The last one is called Entice which is light green cream so pretty too.

Dollar Tree Collective Haul

Hello my MJF followers,
I'm here with a collective dollar tree haul.


I found the starry night lamp that I have been seeing people hauling so I bought two in blue one for me and one to give away. They also have pink and black. I also got two of flower candle holders that I was not going to buy but decided that they were too cute to pass up. I got two of the Marie Callender's easy sides in the flavor Alfredo and Parmesan they were .50 cents each. I already tried the Alfredo and they're really good and might have buy more. I also found the Aquafina hydrating lip balm that I've also seen people haul and I figured I give it a try. Then when I was checking out I saw a two pack of these red hots and got them for my dad.


This haul I found the Milani infinite liquid eye liner. I got three of the gray color named Timeless, two of the brozen color named Forever which I gave one to my mom. I also got one of the purple that is named Endless and one of the blue that is named Infinite. I've only wore one of the colors and really like it so I will be using them in future eye looks.


This last DT haul I got two the minion cups because I love minions and can use them to store my make-up or other ways to use them. I also went back to get the loreal magic perfecting base because I asked my followers on instagram if they tried it and liked it. Most of the feed back was they like it so I figured for a dollar I give it a try. I also found the washi tape that everyone been dieing to get there hands on. So I got two that I thought I would use for something.

When I got home I decided to use it to bling out my cell phone charger and tablet charger and here is the result.


I 'm really happy that I got the washi tape because it makes my chargers look so pretty.

What do you think of my DT collective haul?
