First Eye Look: Covergirl Trunaked Chocoholic Eyeshadow Palette

Hello my MJF stars,
I have an eye look using the Covergirl Trunaked Chocoholic eyeshadows palette. It was last Trunaked palette that I recently bought, so let's get into what I created with this palette.


Products I used:
Avon Eyeshadow Primer Light Beige 
NYX Glitter Primer: lid
Covergirl Trunaked Chocoholic Eyeshadow Palette:
Milk Chocolate: crease
Gourmet: Eyelid and Lower Lid
Crave: brow bone 
Stila Shimmer & Glow Liquid Eyeshadow Kitten: inner Eyelid
Benefit High Brow Creamy Brow Highlighting Pencil: lower lid
Maybelline MasterPrecise Curvy Liquid Liner Black
Covergirl Plumpify BlastPro Mascara Very Black 

I started with my eyeshadow primer which was the Avon one I been using lately. I put Milk  Chocolate in my crease and then put Crave on my brow bone to bend out the edge of Milk Chocolate. I really like the Gourmet shade because it is a really shimmery dark purple shade. But first I put my NYX glitter primer on my eyelid for it stick to and I decided to put it all over most of my lid. There was no light shimmer shade in this palette, so I pulled out one of my Stila Shimmer & Glow liquid eyeshadow in Kitten in and put on the inner part of my eyelid. I then lined my lower lid with Benefit high brow pencil and smudged Gourmet on top. I used my Maybelline liquid liner and did my normal wing. I then put on my mascara which I been like the Covergirl Plumpify lately. I really like how this eye look came out.

 I enjoyed using this palette but it was hard to use since there are a lot of dark shades.  If you like smokey eye looks I totally recommend it and it would be a nice fall and winter palette. Also the smell of Chocolate is really strong compared to peach, so if you not a fan of smells you should skip this palette.

Ross Dress For Less Haul

Hello my MJF stars,
I have a little haul from Ross Dress For Less to share with you, so let's get into what I found at Ross.


When I saw this Disney The Nightmare Before Christmas ComicWalls Art. I had to have it even though, I had no idea where I was going to hang it. I had to have it and could not pass it up for $15.99. If you follow me on IG you saw I found a spot to hang it. I'm so happy that I found it and didn't pass it up.


I also found these Holographic pink slides from puma for $12.99. They were so pretty and comfy that could not pass them up for that price.    


I also found a two piece women's plus bathing suit. It's from the South Point brand and retail for $100.00. I got it on sale for $16.99 which was marked down from $22.99. I have been needing a new bathing suit, so I was really happy to find this two piece for a really good price.

I hope you enjoyed seeing what I got from Ross Dress For Less.

Products I used:
Orly Top2 Bottom Basecoat + Topcoat 
Color Club Feelin' Groovy 
Orly Charged Up
Jordana Quick Dry Topcoat

Like I said I wanted to wear green and purple, so I decided to wear Color Club Feelin' Groovy again since I really like this neon green. I then thought it would look pretty with a purple as squish mani, so I used Orly Charged Up which is a pretty blue based purple. I didn't want to do every nail as squish mani, so I did my thumb and ring finger.  I really liked how this mani came out and I love this color combo.

I hope you enjoyed this weeks mani.

Dollar Tree Haul

Hello my MJF stars,
I'm here with another Dollar Tree haul. Let's get right into what I got from DT.


I need some Paper Tape and Fabric Bandages, so I picked up some from the Assured brand. I was so surprised to see Liquid Skin at DT since this stuff is not cheap, so  I picked up two of them to try and they work like the one I get from Walmart.


They had some Assured day time cold & flu so I picked one up, just in case I need it. I also found some oral analgesic gel by Iodent brand that I never seen at DT and figured I pick one up so I have it when I need it. I also got some Assured Ibuprofen since I ran out.


I also need some Liquid soap, so I got this 32 fl oz of this Spa Soap in Antibacterial refill.


I have been wanting to get some type c cable for travel for my Samsung S8 phone and I happy to find some at DT since these new type c usb cables are not cheap and hard to find. I was at Big Lots and they wanted $6.00 for them. I knew DT will get them soon and I was right. So, I got two of them one in purple and white one.


I need some little snack bowls so I this 4 pc of these green ones. They are not to thick plastic but they work. 


I was so happy find the cute socks that my DT never gets in, so when I saw them. I had to get one of each design. I got the donut, ice creams, tacos, pizza and the doggie which looks like a Boston terrier.


I picked up two pages of Temptations for my cat because he loves them.


I also picked up this large bowl for the doggies as a extra water bowl.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my Dollar Tree haul.

VooDoo Mani

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

Products I used:
Orly Top2 Bottom Basecoat + Topcoat 
L.A. Colors Hypno holographic VooDoo 
Jordana Quick Shine Topcoat

I decided to wear a nail polish from L.A. Color that I recently bought at Big Lots which I never tried any of their Hypno holographic collection. So, when I saw the VooDoo shade, I had to get it.  It's a pretty metallic teal shimmer with some blue shimmer in there too. I really like the formula and it was opaque with three coats. It also lasted on my nail with out chipping for about a week which for me is good. I might pick up more shades from this collection. I would totally would recommend this polish. I got it for $2.00 and I think that's a pretty good price.

I hope you enjoy this weeks mani.

First Eye Look: Covergirl Trunaked Peach Punch Eyeshadow Palette

Hello my MJF stars,
I'm here to share with you one of the Covergirl (Chocoholic, Peach Punch, and Sunsets) Trunaked eyeshadow palettes that I recently got. If you follow me on my IG, you saw I had a poll on which palette to use first. The winner was the Peach Punch palette, so let's get into what I created with this palette.


Products I used:
Maybelline Color Tattoo 24hr Eyeshadow 255 Just Beige: Eyelid Primer
NYX Glitter Primer: lid
Covergirl Trunaked Peach Punch Eyeshadow Palette:
Public Peach: crease 
Peachini: center eyelid 
Peachy Keen: brow bone 
Raspberry Peach: outer v and bottom lid
Peach Sangria: inner eyelid
Stila Glitter &Glow Liquid Eyeshadow Enchantress 
Benefit High Brow Creamy Brow Highlighting Pencil: lower lid
Jordana Cat Eye Liner Black Leather 
Covergirl Plumpify BlastPro Mascara Very Black 

I started with priming my eyelids with the Maybelline color tattoo. I put Public Peach eyeshadow in my crease. I wanted to put Peachini on my center of my eyelid which i pretty peachy pink shimmer. I then put Peachy Keen on my brow bone which is perfect shade for my brow bone highlight. I wanted to deepen my outer v, so I used Raspberry peach. I wanted to add some of Peach Sangria to brighten my inner eyelid. Since Peachini was not as bright or shimmery as I wanted, so I tapped a little bit of Stila Glitter & Glow in Enchantress on top with my finger. I then did my wing liner with Jordana Cat eye liner. I also put on my mascara which was Covergirl Plumpify that I have been liking lately. I then lined my lower lid with Benefit high brow as base for Raspberry Peach.

I really love how this eye look came out. I can't wait to do another eye look with this palette and to try out the other Trunaked palettes. If you like to vote on which one I used next check out my IG or you can even leave a comment of which one below.
