Review: Maybelline Eyestudio Limited Edition Sea Sprite and Green With Fashion

Hello my MJF followers/friends,

I'm here to give you my thoughts on these two Maybelline Eyestudio eye shadows palettes that got a while ago from Big Lots.

300 Sea Sprite

Swatches of 300 Sea Sprite with no primer

This palette haves a gold and some greens which you know I love green eyeshadows and this one does not disappoint. They are all very smooth and not powdery. As you can see they are pigmented also. The only eye shadow that I had really bad fall out was the gold color because it had a lot of glitter. 

810 Green with Fashion

This palette unlike its name has no green but teal and light beige colors which are also so pretty. This palette has the same formula as Sea Sprite. I wish they had a matte color for brow bone high light but besides that I really like these two palettes. I would buy more of the Maybelline Eyestudio palettes. 

I hope you liked this Review of these two Maybelline Eyestudio eyeshadow palettes.

Cotton Candy and Pink Ansen Mani

Hello my MJF followers,

I have another mani for Mani Monday. This weeks mani was me going out of my color comfort zone. You might notice that I wear many blues, blacks, greens, and lately purples. So this week I decided to try a pink nail polish.

Products I used:

Revlon ColorStay Base Coat 

Orly Cotton Candy

Sinful Colors Pink Ansen

Milani Quick Shine Top Coat 

I picked out a salmon pink color called Cotton Candy which would look nice with my skin tone. When I think Cotton Candy I think of a more red tone color not orange like this one. This polish does not match its name any ways. I decided to top it with Pink Ansen which made it more a bubble gum pink which you can't see in the pictures. I really liked without Pink Ansen but since Cotton Candy was so streaky so I had to put something on top. I think Cotton Candy has a bad formula or needs a white base to fix the streakiness. I'm not really liking this combo but I did try a color that is not in my comfort zone. I do not recommended Orly Cotton Candy but I do love Sinful Colors Pink Ansen which is a pretty iridescent glitter with blue shifts and might look pretty over a different color.

I hope you enjoyed this weeks Mani Monday even though I was not a fan of it but there might be someone else out there that loves it.

Sally Beauty Supply, Old Navy and Walmart Hauls

Hello my MJF follower/friends,

I have a few little hauls that I decided to put together. 

I went to Sally beauty supply to get some nail polish thinner because I have few polishes that needs to be thinned out. So I also looked at the clearance items and found a few nail polishes I had to get. This first one was on my list to buy and I was not willing to spend full price so I was happy to find Opi My Gecko Does Tricks $3.69  and I had a coupon for 20% off so it was $2.95 and original $9.50. I also saw Orly Frenemy which was $2.49 and with coupon $1.99 and original  $8.50. I also got China Glaze mini Turned up Turquoise for $1.29 with coupon it was $1.03. The last thing I got was Beauty Secrets Nail Polish Thinner 4 oz bottle for $4.79 with 20% off it was $3.83.

Since Old Navy was by Sally Beauty Supply I went in to see if they had anything on clearance that I had to have and I found this Womens Cocoon Cardigans sweater in Navy on clearance for $7.97 was $36.94.

I also stopped in to Walmart to look around and found more of the Walnut Avenue 719 candles and had to get two of the Caribbean Villa each $4.93. They smell tropical fruits and coconut which I love. I loved the Tihi Colada scent from while ago and have not seen it at my Walmart. These get sold out fast because they are as good a bath and body works candles. 

I hope you enjoyed my hauls.

Big Lots Hauls

Hello my MJF followers,

I have a few big lots hauls to show you.

This first haul was before Christmas and I only got two things.

Since I was trying not to buy things for me and buy things for others for Christmas but I found this Live, love, music led color pulse portable bluetooth speaker for  $20.00 and could not pass it up for that price. I don't have a good portable speaker so I thought I try this one because I've see speaker like this for around $100 or more. I really love them and they will be great for the summer to play my music outside by the pool. I also got Little Debbie red velvet Christmas tree for $1.67.

In this haul I found another Remington smooth & silky that was $5.00 which works well and I keep in my travel bag. I also got few movies which is Three DVD for $1.88, Possession on Bluray for $2.88 and Disney's the Princess Diaries 2 for $5.00.  

I found one these cute Penguin light up snow globes tumbler cup from cool gear and since it was Christmas is was on sale with 50% off then had 20% off coupon so it was $3.20.

I hope you enjoyed my Big lots hauls.
