First Eye Look: ColourPop Disney Villains Misunderstood Pressed Powder Palette

Hello my MJF stars,
If you follow me on Instagram you saw that I had my followers vote on which new eye palette that I recently bought to do an eye look next. As you can see ColourPop 
Disney Villains Misunderstood Pressed Powder Palette won in a landslide. So let's get into what I created with this eyeshadow palette.


Products I used:
Maybelline Color Tattoo 24hr eyeshadow Just Beige: eye base
NYX Glitter Primer
Disney Villains Misunderstood Pressed Powder Palette:
The Fates: Crease
Jetsam: outer v and lower lash
Forest Of Thorns: Center Lid
Flotsam: inner corner 
No Spots and Tragic: brow bone
Benefits High Brow Creamy Brow Highlighting Pencil: lower lash
Maybelline Master Precise Curvy Liquid Liner Black
Covergirl Lashblash Fusion Mascara Black

I used Just Beige Color Tattoo as a base for my eye look. I wanted use the matte blue called The Fate because it caught my eye. So I thought I put in my crease and go from there.  I put NYX glitter primer so that the glitter stays on my lid. I then saw Jetsam which is a metallic denim blue with teal duo chrome flip that I thought it would look pretty in my outer v. I then put Forest of Thorns which is a metallic orchid on my center lid. I put Flotsam which is a metallic baby pink with blue glitter. I thought Flotsam look so pretty and go perfectly with The Fates because of the blue glitter. I mixed No Spots and Tragic to get my perfect brow bone shade since No Spots is a matte white and Tragic matte soft warm beige which was too dark for my brow bone highlight shade by itself. I then did my wing liner with Curvy liner. I used Benefits pencil on my lower lash as a base for Jetsam to stick too. I put my mascara by Covergirl. I had no idea on what I wanted to create with this palette but I like how this eye look came out. This is my first ColourPop palette and I'm really like this palette so far. I can't wait to create another eye look with this palette and I probably will do a more neutral eye next time.

Lake Tahoe Trip Hauls: TJ Maxx, Ross Dress For Less, CVS Pharmacy and Gift Shop at Lake Tahoe

Hello my MJF stars,
A couple weeks ago, I had a trip to Tahoe and of course I shopped at a few stores while I was there. So, let's get into what I hauled.


In this first haul is from TJ Maxx in which I found few things I could not pass up. I need something to help my hair since it's been feeling dry and crazy. So I was looking in the Clearance and found this Giovanni 2 Chic Ultra Sleek Leave-In Conditioning & Styling Elixir for $4.50 which was $5.99. I have tried another Giovanni leave-in conditioner from them but it didn't have keratin and Moroccan argan oil. I thought  it would help my hair so we will see.
I love Real Techniques Brushes and when I found one of the Crush 302 Blush for $5.99. I had to pick it up since it similar to the 300 blush brush that I love. If you saw my last TJ Maxx haul you saw I picked up the Too Face White Peach Palette but this time I was happy to find Too Faced Peach Blur Translucent Smoothing Finishing Powder for $12.99 and had to pick it up to try.




We also stopped at Ross Dress For Less and I didn't find much but I did find this China Glaze Summer Reign mini set for $5.99. The colors of these polishes was calling my name so I had to bring this set home with me.



We went to CVS since my dad need something. So I decided to look around the makeup aisle. I have been wanting to try the Wet N Wild Photo Focus 3-in-1 primer water and they had a few of them left. I decided to try the Rose scent. It was $5.99. We had coupon if we spend $10 we get $4.00 off all makeup. So the primer water was $4.44 with the coupon. My mom picked out Wet N Wild liner but we didn't have $10.00 yet so I decided to picked up another Wet N Wild Megaglo Highlighting powder in Golden Flower Crown which I didn't own yet. It was also $5.75 with coupon $4.29. 


We also stopped at the Gift Shop at Lake Tahoe which is next to CVS. I saw these beautiful Gemstone Necklaces. I got this quarts necklace which was $12.99.


I also had to get this Amethyst necklace too which is also $12.99.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my hauls. 
I had wonderful time in Tahoe even though it was snowing a few days I was there but it was beautiful and relaxing.

When I was on my Tahoe trip we went to Ross Dress For Less and I found a Mini set of the China Glaze Summer Reign which I had to pick up because the colors was calling my name. Since today is Memorial Day I wanted to wear a blue polish. So I thought I would wear Simply Fa-Blue-Less which is a jelly dark blue. I usually don't like jellies by there selves but something about this color, I just fell in love with it. I was going to put glitter but decided to leave it as is because it looks so pretty. I could of done two coats but you know I always do three coats. I think this color is perfect for spring and summer.

I hope you have a nice Memorial Day. 
I will be remembering and honoring who died while serving in US Armed Forces.

Ross Dress For Less, Ulta Beauty, Marshalls and Target Hauls

Hello my MJF stars,
Since I was on a break last week and I wore minimal makeup, so I didn't take pictures of the eye looks. Instead I will share with you some hauls from Ross Dress For Less, Ulta Beauty, Marshalls and Target.  


I went to Ross Dress For Less with my mom to look around and I found this pretty metallic rainbow back pack by Imoshionusa on clearance for $13.99 so I had to get it.


I went to Ulta Beauty to get the Colour Pop Disney Villains Misunderstood awhile ago but the display was empty and they girl that worked there said to come back next week but I didn't make it. But I did go back a few weeks later but the display was go but I happened to walk down an aisle where was few thing from the Disney Colour pop collection. They had two of the pressed eyeshadow palettes left. I found one that was not touched and undamaged. It was $22.00 and I used the $3.50 off coupon so it was $18.50. I so happy to find it and can't wait to do an eye look. 


I went to Marshalls because I saw people on IG finding Too Faced Peach products.  I don't own any of the peach collection and wanted to try them. When I got there I was bummed that they didn't have anything but one of the ladies came out and was put out new products in the makeup area. So I asked if they had the Too Faced White Peach palette. The lady said I don't know but she said you can look in the bins she brought out. So I saw a packaging that looked to be the palette and I was right it was the palette. I was so excited to find it. It was $22.99. On the way to cashier I found the Bubba big straws that I have been looking for at Walmart that they use to sell but I never found them again. I was so surprised to find them at Marshalls, so I grabbed a pack for $3.99. I might go back because I love these straws.


I went to Target to pick up some stuff for my mom and I. They were having a deal where you spend $20 or more on beauty you get $5.00 target gift card. So I had to get this Profusion Wanderlust eyeshadow palette because I have not tried any of there new palettes. I heard great things about these palettes. It was $9.99 but I also got some off with Cartwheel and Red Card, so it was $8.21.


I also picked up my hair dye which I have been using L'oreal Superior Preference in Lightest Golden Brown which was $8.99 but with discounts it was $7.38.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my hauls.

Jc Penney and Kohl's Hauls

Hello my MJF stars,
I have a few clothing hauls from Jc Penney and Kohl's to share with you. So, let's get into what I got. 


The first haul if from Jc Penney where I found this St. John's Bay Women's plus Navy Plaid shirt on clearance for $6.59 with 20% off coupon it was $5.27.  


I also found these Xersion 7/8 performance leggings in Maze Geo Black on clearance for $11.75 with coupon it was $9.40. 


Since the legging was only $9.40 I decided to pick up these Halo Geo Black ones too.  


In this haul from Kohl's I went to find some no graphic tshirts because I went through my shirts and I don't own any. They was having a sale so I found few. I got this Evri Womens plus Everyday V-neck in Olive Tapenade that was on sale for $6.99. 


I also got this Plus size Tek Grear Dry Tek Graphic V-Neck Tee in Burnout Navy on sale for $5.99. I like that it's light weight and perfect for spring and summer.


I like the tee so much I also picked one up in another color which is Blue Mountain but it looks more light purple or lavender then blue in person.


I also looked in the clearance and I found this Plus size Tek Micro fleece hooded Jacket which if you saw my other Kohl's haul awhile ago I got the gray one that I love and when I saw this Aqua Jade in the clearance I had to get it. It had no price but when the cashier typed in the number it was $10.59 which is a good price since it was $36.00 retail.  


I went to look at the shoes and they had a sale on sandals and I was happy find these Women's Mudd Molded Double Strap Sandals that look like the Birkenstock ones I wanted last year and target some that also looked like these but were price for an a Target brand. These are usually $16.99 which is cheaper than target but they were on sale for $6.99. So I picked up the silver ones and I might have to go back to get another color but I really love these.


Since we got some Kohl's cash from the last haul. My mom and I went to another kohl's to use the kohl's cash. I found another one of the Plus Size Tek Gear Dry Tek Graphic V-neck tee but in Burn Out Black with the cash and coupon it was $5.59.  

I hope you enjoyed seeing my plus size clothing hauls from Jc Penney and Kohl's.

Sixth Eye Look: Urban Decay Vice 4 Palette

Hello my MJF stars,
I'm here to share with you an eye look I did using my Urban Decay Vice 4 palette. The reason I pulled it out is that I have not used in awhile. So, let's get into what I created this time. 


Products I used:

NYX Glitter Primer 
Urban Decay Vice 4 Palette: 
Discreet: Crease

Harlot: eyelid
Framed: brow bone
Urban Decay 24/7 Waterproof Liquid Liner Perversion 
Urban Decay Perversion Mascaras

I forgot how pretty this palette was and I saw that some of the shadows was not even used yet. So I decided to do a purple eye look since I have not used the purple shadows yet. I primed my lids with Just Beige color tattoo. I then put Discreet in my crease. I then used NYX Glitter Primer on my lid, so I get the most of the shimmer shades. I used Beat Down in my outer v and into my crease. I then put Harlot on my rest of my eyelid. I put Framed on my brow bone and blended out edge of Discreet. I did my normal winged liner with Urban Decay liner. I then put Beat Down on my bottom lash. The last thing I did was put on Urban Decay Perversion mascara. I really like how this eye look came out. I so need to used this palette more.
