Dollar Tree Haul

Hello my MJF stars,
I'm here with another Dollar Tree haul to share with you. So lets get into what I hauled this time at DT.


Close up of the solar light owl and frog
I have been seeing people hauling the Solar Light Owl and Frog and had to get them both because I love owls and frogs. They are very bright too which awesome. I also found the Decorative Tape in the Despicable me and Disney Tsum tsum so I had to get both because I like to decorate stuff with this tape. I got a bag of the Might Malts eggs to try out. I'm not a big fan because it white chocolate not milk but my mom loves them so I gave it to her. I also got a bag of my favorite Tootsies Fruit Chews. I also got some of the Russell Stovers Chocolate Marshmallow eggs also my fave during Easter. I also found the Fruit Shea butter hand creams so I picked up two to try. I got the Fresh pear and red apple scents. I really like both but if they not Bath and Body Work quality so don't expect that but they are still nice.

I hope you enjoyed seeing what I got from Dollar Tree even thought it was before Easter and I finally posting it now but if you want see what I get before I post check out my Instagram.

Products I used:
Orly Top2 Bottom Base Coat 
O.P.I Super Cute in Pink and My Pal Joey
Pop-arazzi Quick Dry Top Coat Insta-shine

I wanted to wear a blue nail polish and wanted to do another squish mani so I pulled out O.P.I My Pal Joey that is a pretty blue that I love from my collection. I also thought O.P.I Cute in Pink which is from the same hello kitty collection that would look really nice with My Pal Joey. I think I was right because I really like how these two look together. I'm really happy how this squish mani came out. 

I hope you enjoyed this weeks mani for Manicure Mondays.

Products I used:
Orly Top2 Bottom Base Coat
Fresh Paint Mood Wander-dusk  and Firefly Sunset 
Pop-arazzi Quick Dry Top Coat Insta-shine

As you can see I decided to do a squish mani with two mood nail polishes from Fresh Paint. I really like these mood Fresh paint polishes by their selves. They have a really nice formula and last a while on my nails which is nice. I think they look really pretty together when squished also. I'm really happy how this mani came out and I think mood polishes are awesome. I need more of these mood polishes in my life.

I hope you enjoyed this weeks mani.

Dollar Tree Haul

Hello my MJF stars,
I have another haul to share with you from Dollar Tree. So lets get into what I hauled this time.


I found the Global Beauty Care Cleansing Nose Strips in Charcoal to try out since I never seen these at Dollar Tree. I also picked up few more of the Wet N Wild Small Eyeshadow brushes because I love this brush and need back ups.


I also found these Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes that I never seen before so I pick up a pack to try. I always need cotton swaps so I picked up the cute Minnie Mouse ones.


I need more gauze pads so I got these ones from Curad which is a name brand that I know is more than $1. I also got some Assured Gentle Tape.


My store had a lot of the Valentines Solar Dancers so I had to pick up the Solar Devil and the Solar Cupid.


I had seen people hauling these cute Mermaid Kisses candles and was happy to find them at my store with the Valentines so I got two. They are not to strong smelling but I got it because of cute design and I burn stronger candles will theses are burning. So its not big deal for me.


I also found these Solar Flowers which is different from the ones they had before. I actually like these more. The ones I had from a couple springs ago broke from being in the sun and rain. So I might have pick up more of these.

I hope you enjoyed this haul even though it from before Valentines day. 
But if you follow me on Instagram I post most of the things I get on there so please got follow me.

JcPenney and Ross Dress For Less Hauls

Hello my MJF stars,
I have a clothing haul since I went through all of my clothes and got rid of some stuff that I should got rid a while ago. I have been needing some sweat shirts since I don't have many.  Also JcPenney had but most of the winter stuff on sale and they had coupons. So I ordered few things and I have one thing to share with you from Ross. So let's get into the haul.


Since my JcPenney don't carry much of the women's plus size clothing that I like. So I ordered three things I thought I would like. So this City Streets Long sleeve sweatshirt which is similar to something I bought from Burlington and loved so I got this one. It was $18.00 which did not qualify for the coupon but I had to have it right after I ordered it sold out online and they don't have them in store.


I also got Xersion long sleeve knit hoodie in grey black. It was $47.00 but with coupon it was $18.80. I love this sweatshirt and I should of gotten the other color but didn't. I like the velvet draw strings and the rose gold zipper but I not rose gold fan but I like it on this sweat shirt which makes it a fancy sweatshirt.


The last thing I got was this long sleeve funnel neck pullover junior plus Heather grey. I thought it was going to be same material as the first sweatshirt but it's not which I was bummed about. It's more sweater material which snags on things but comfortable and soft. It was $46.00 but with coupon it was $18.40.



The last thing in this haul is this Mickey Mouse t-shirt from Ross Dress For Less. It from the Disney store plus size Women's. It was $9.99 and you know I had to have it. It's similar to the other Mickey shirt I bought awhile ago but it was gray and this one it black. I worn it many times already.

I hope you enjoyed seeing these hauls.

Fourth Eye Look: Makeup Revolution Sophx Eyeshadow Palette

Hello my MJF stars,
I'm here with another eye look using the Sophx eyeshadow palette as well as the Wet N Wild Liquid eyeshadow that I recently bought. So lets get into this eye look that I created.


Products I used:
Jordana Eyeshadow base eye primer 
NYX Glitter Primer 
Wet N Wild Megalast Liquid Catsuit eyeshadow in Goth Tears:  eyelid
Wet N Wild MegaGlo Highlighting Powder Purple Ashes: Inner eyelid
Makeup Revolution Sophx Eyeshadow Palette:
Peaches: crease
Mixed Berries: outer v, crease and bottom lash 
Pancakes: brow bone 
Penguin: brow bone
Urban Decay 24/7 Liquid Liner Perversion 
Covergirl Lashblast Fusion Mascara Black

I used NYX Glitter Primer to get the best color pay off of Goth Tears which has a lot of glitters in it. I wanted Goth Tears to be the main color in this eye look so I put on my eyelid. I put Peaches in my crease and little bit above crease. I put mixed berries in the outer v, crease and on the bottom lash. I put Pancakes and Penguin mixed together as a brow bone highlight. I also put Purple ash to give it little bit extra and I think looks so pretty with Goth Tears. I really love how this eye look came out even though I had to put a few layers of Goth Tears to get the color I was looking for.

Walgreens Haul and Review Of Wet N Wild Goth-O-Graphic Collection

Hello my MJF stars,
I have a little Walgreens Haul to share with you and since its a small haul. I thought I would do a review of the I items I got also. So lets get into this haul and review.


As you can see from the title that I found some of the Wet N Wild Goth-O-Graphic collection. The display was pretty picked over but I was lucky to find two of the three things I wanted from the collection. I got one of the Megalast Liquid Catsuit Liquid Eyeshadow in Goth Tears. I was happy to find the last one of the Megaglo Highlighing powder in Purple Ashes. They were both $4.99 each. So since this is a little haul I wanted to share my thoughts on these two products nice I used both as soon as I got home.


Swatches from left to right: Goth Tears and Purple Ashes

I did use Goth Tears on a eye look that I will be posting today so I thought I would tell you what I think about this liquid eyeshadows. I used a few of liquid eyeshadows before from different brand so I know how they should perform compared to powder shadows. I think this liquid shadow is pretty and as you can see but you have to layer it to get it to get the true color you see in the bottle. I think it would be better to be layered over a base color either a shadow or pencil. I like that it does dry down nicely and does not transfer to other parts off my lid since I have a little bit of hooded eyelids. The only thing with layering to get the color it does show more of my wrinkles on my eyelid since I do have wrinkly eyelids but to me its not a big deal. I think it has nice applicator and I love the packaging. I really enjoyed this liquid eyeshadow and If I see more I will definitely be buying more. Since I really want to try the Stila ones but price is little to rich for me and these Wet N Wild are only $4.99.  

I was also happy to at least find one of the Highlighters in this collection since I wanted White Raven and Purple Ashes but only found Purple Ashes. As you can see its has a Purple gray under tone with pink shimmer. I think its so pretty but if you layer it on too much you can see more of the Purple gray under tone and looks like you have dirt on your face which is not what I going for. So you have to be light handed on this highlighter. I have light-medium skin tone and it might look darker on a paler skin tones. I think its pretty but I probably will not were it everyday. I might have to order White Raven if I can't find it in stores.

I like both of the Wet N Wild products and would recommend both. But if you pale and don't like a purple gray highlight I would skip Purple Ashes. I hear they are coming out with more of the Liquid Eyeshadows in there permanent line and can't wait to see the other colors because you know I will be picking some up.

I hope you enjoyed seeing this haul and me sharing my thoughts about these products from Wet N Wild.
