Ross Dress For Less Haul

Hello my MJF stars,

I have a little Ross haul to show you. I have been trying to cut back on my buying lately because of Christmas but I found two things that I had to get.

I have been needing some new jeans so when I found these jeans on sale for $11.99 I had to get them. They are by Angel kiss.

I also got this Reebok sweater on sale for $18.99 and been loving it. It fits me well and not too hot but also thick enough to for Winter time in California.

I hope you enjoyed seeing this little haul.

Christmas Eye Look

Hello my MJF stars,

I have another eye look using the Too Faced Love palette that I have been wearing a lot. So I of course wanted to do a green Christmas eye look.

Products I used:

Nyc City Proof eye primer Universal

L'Oréal infallible eye crayon 707 Resilient Green

Too Faced Love Passionately Pretty Eye Shadow Collection:

Darling: Eyelid

Puppy Love: crease

Smitten: Brow Bone

W7 liquid eyeliner black

W7 absolute lashes mascara Blackest Black

I been trying out some new products lately. So I wanted to use L'Oréal infallible eye crayon because the last time I used it by itself it did not go well. I decided it might work well for a base which I'm happy to say it does. It was perfect for my Christmas eye look. It made Darling a darker green and made the glitter stick to my eye lid. I'm really happy how this eye look came out and can't wait to do more eye looks with the Too Faced Love Passionately Pretty Eye Shadow Collection Palette.

I was so happy that they put a Nordstrom rack in one of the mall near me in September but never got chance to check it out. So I finally got a chance to check it out. They had a lot of high end products for a good price. They had some high-end makeup that I wanted to buy of all of it but since it was close to Christmas I just got two things that I could not pass up. It was the Too Faced Love Passionately Pretty Eye Shadow Collection that I have looking for at Tj Maxx but never found. So I had to get it and it was $16.97. I also got this cute Boston terror clear makeup bag by Tartan + Twine for $8.97.

I also stopped at Tj Maxx and found this O.p.I that I had to get which was ds titanium for $1.99.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my two hauls.

I have a little Bath & Body Works haul to show you. Since I have been trying to save money for the holiday and not just buy stuff for myself. I only picked up a few things, so lets see what I got.

Youtube video of haul:

I had coupons for a free signature item and for $5 off of $20. I got the Love & Sunshine shower gel for free and my mom got me the body lotion for me with her coupon since she did not want anything.

Products I used:

Wet N Wild wildshine protective base

Orly Charged Up

Sinful Colors Star Studded

Milani Quick Dry Top Coat

Since I been loving purple nail polishes and been dying to wear Charged up I thought it would a nice base color for Star Studded which was from last years Sinful Color Christmas collection. I really love both polishes and they look so pretty together. I can't wait to put Star Studded over a green or red next time. I think this combo is perfect for the Holiday season.  You know I love Stars and it was easy to get a star by just dipping my brush in which I was so happy. I hate it when you have to dig around the polish to get glitter. I have been wanting to pick up this years Sinful Colors holiday collection. We will see. ;0)

Second eye look : Wet N Wild Sphinx Minx Palette

Hello my MJF stars,

I really loved the last eye look using the Wet N Wild Sphinx Minx palette. I wanted to used it again with some other eye shadows. So lets get into what I did for this look.

Products I used:

Jordana eye primer

Wet N Wild Sphinx Minx Icon color palette

Definer: crease and inner and outer eyelid

E.l.f Long Lasting Lustrous eyeshadow toast: center eyelid

L'Oréal Colour Riche Eye Shadow Paris Beach: Brow Bone

Klean Color Hardcore liquid eyeliner black

L'Oréal Voluminous Primer

Jordana Best Lash Extreme Volumizing Mascara Black

Like I said I wanted to use Sphinx Minx palette and wanted to use some other eye shadows with it. I wanted to use E.l.f eyeshadow in toast because I love this shadow it so pretty. I used toast on the eyelid and Sphinx Minx definer in the crease. I also used Paris Beach on the brow bone because it does not have shimmer in it like most of the eyeshadows in the Sphinx Minx palette. I thought this is a nice soft everyday eye look with some shimmer and I love how this eye look came out. 

I hope you enjoyed seeing this eye look.

Outside lighting with flash

Outside lighting no flash

Products I used:

Loreal One Stop Base Coat

LA Colors Color Craze Glam

Maybelline Color Show bleached neons Ultra Violet

Milani Quick Shine Top Coat

I used Glam from LA colors which I found awhile ago at Dollar Tree. It looked very similar to a O.P.I nail polish from last summer but I don't remember the name exactly it was like something  Pineapple. Any ways I decided to to do a ruffin mani and added Ultra Violet which is a cream that is between a purple and pink. I think it looked really pretty with Glam because it has pink and blue and other glitter with the yellow/gold glitter base. I might have pull out glam again soon for the holidays because it would be perfect for that. 

I hope you enjoyed this week's Manicure for Manicure Mondays. I will be posting my thanksgiving Mani next week or if you like on Wednesday if you like me too. I did not do many thanksgiving manis this year but you can search my blog to find to see them with you like.
