Second eye look: Too Faced Peanut Butter and Jelly Palette

Hello my MJF stars,
I'm here with another eye look using Too Faced Peanut Butter and Jelly Palette. Lets get into what I created this time.


Products I used:
Wet N Wild fergie take on the day eyeshadow primer
Too faced peanut butter and jelly palette:
Peanut Butter: Crease
Peanut Brittle: eyelid
Peanut butter cup: outer v and bottom lash
Extra Creamy and Spread the love: brow bone
Bananas: inner corner
L.A Colors Grafix eyeliner Black
Covergirl Lashblast Fusion Mascara Black

I started with Peanut Butter in the crease and I wanted something shimmery on my eye lid. So I used Peanut Brittle which is pretty. I used Peanut Butter Cup on the outer v and bottom lash. I put a mix of Extra Creamy and Spread the Love on the brow bone to get a perfect brow bone highlight. I then put Bananas in my inner corner. I wanted to try out the Wet N Wild primer but I don't know how I feel about it. I have to wear it again to do a review.

Anyways, I hope you enjoy seeing this eye look.

Until next time,

Dollar Tree Haul

Hello my MJF stars,
I'm here with another Dollar Tree Haul. It's haul from before Halloween which never got posted but I thought you still want to see what I hauled, since its not just Halloween items. So lets get into what I hauled.




I will start with the two Halloween items which are a Solar Swinging Ghost that was the only new solar from the last Halloween. I was bummed that they had the same ones as last year. I also got this Bat Headband which I thought was too cute to pass up. 


I was so happy to find more colors of the Kiss Gel strong nail polishes so I picked up 8 of them as you can see. I got This Romance, Pitapat, That Moment, Habit, Mood Today, Routine, Inside Out, and Eye Contact.


The last thing I picked up was two packs of the Miss Claudia's Bakery French Rolls that I really like and have to get them when the DT has them.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my haul.

Products I used:
Kiss Gel Stong Inside Out 
Sally Hansen Insta-Dry Top Coat

I decided to wear Inside Out which is a pretty deep blue purple cream. I also wanted to wear with out a base coat to see if it made difference with a wear time. I also borrowed a top coat from a friend to try out. It does not matter with/or without a base coat because it wears about same amount of time with a base coat without chipping. I really liked Sally Hansen Insta-Dry Top Coat and might have to get me a bottle when I can find it. I went to three stores the other day and they were all sold out :0( . I would love to know what your favorite top coat is so let me know in the comments. I really loved how this mani came out.

I hope you enjoyed this weeks mani for Manicure Mondays.

Black and Gypsy Glitz Mani

Hello my MJF stars,
I'm here with another mani for Manicure Mondays. So lets get into what I put on my nails this time.

Inside lighting with flash

Outside lighting with flash

Products I used:
Revlon Colorstay Base Coat 
KleanColor Black
LOreal Gypsy Glitz
Milani Quick Dry Top Coat

I could not make up mind on what to put on my nails. I been wanting to wear Gypsy Glitz. When I first put on my nails it need a base so I had to take it off and try it again. So I decided to use KleanColor Black as a base for two of my nails. I think it looked really nice with the black but next time might wanted to put a silver as base for Gypsy Glitz. After I put on the Milani Quick Dry Top Coat it looked so pretty. Then I notice something didn't look right. It started to pull away from the base of my nail which is not a big deal until it chipped off completely which was very bad. As you can see in the second and third image on my pointer finger. I had to go back with the Black because there was big chunk missing. I don't know if the top coat or the combo of the top and bottom coats together or the nail polish. So I will be changing up my bottom and top coats. Since I'm out of the top coat that I have been loving and only can get it Kmart which is Jordana Quick Shine and Also when did Target and Walmart stop sell NYC nail polish? I went to get the top coat from them they don't carry NYC anymore. 
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed seeing this weeks mani for Manicure Mondays. Even if it didn't come out the way I wanted it too.

Ulta Haul

Hello my MJF stars,
I have an Ulta Haul from awhile ago but I still wanted to share with you what I got. So lets get into what I hauled.



I have been wanting on of the Too Face Chocolate bar palettes but could not see paying that much for a palette that I might and might not like. So when I saw that Ulta had the Too Faced Peanut Butter and Jelly Palette on sale for $20.00 (was $36.00). I went in to swatch it in person to see if it grabbed me. Well it was so pretty that it came home with me. I also picked up the Makeup Revolution Ghost lights vivid bake highlighter because you know I love Makeup Revolution and it had a skull on it. It was $6.00 with my 20% off coupon. I love this highlighter and use it a lot.


I went back because they sent me a coupon for a free Laura Geller Deluxe Gelato swirl illuminator in Diamond Dust. So I of course found something that I had to try. I have been wanting to try NYX lip lingerie liquid lipstick and they were buy one at $6.99 get one at 50% off, so I picked up two colors. I got Embellishment and Confident.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my haul.

As you see I wanted to do a green and red because you know that Christmas colors. So I decided to use my NYX Ultimate Shadow Brights Palette.

Christmas Mani 2017 #2: Best Ponies Forever, Leaves Jingle and Ruby Slipper

Hello my MJF stars,
I know it's been awhile but I'm back with my last Christmas themed mani of 2017. There might be some changes to the blog and youtube channel. I might post only once a week instead of twice a week. I don't know if I'm going to still upload Youtube videos because it takes up more time and less time for blog posts. You know what I mean because its take time to film and edit then write on the blog to post. We will see in the coming days how I feel. But for now lets get into this mani I created.
