First Eye Look: Makeup Revolution Death By Chocolate Palette

Hello my MJF stars,

I'm here with you my first eye look using the Makeup Revolution Death By Chocolate palette. So lets get into what I created.

Products I used:

Wet N Wild Take On The Day Eyeshadow Primer

NYX Glitter Primer Eyelid

Makeup Revolution Death By Chocolate Eyeshadow Palette

Break Me Up: Crease

Don't Let Go: eyelid

White Light: brow bone

Love You to Death: outer v and bottom lash

Jordana Cat Eye Liner  Black Leather

Covergirl Bombshell Curvaceous by Lashblast Mascara Very Black

This palette is all warm neutral shade with a few shades of plum and you know I love purples so I had to use it. But first I put Break Me Up in my crease. I put Don't Let Go on my eyelid. I put Love You to Death which is the plum shade in my outer v in to the crease and on my bottom lash. I put White Light on my brow bone to highlight and blend out the edge of Break Me Up. I then put my liner and mascara. I really love how this eye look came out. I can't wait to do another eye look with is palette.

Review: Makeup Revolution Death By Chocolate Eyeshadow Palette

Hello my MJF stars,

I'm here to share my thoughts on another Makeup Revolution Chocolate palette which this one is called Death By Chocolate. So lets get into this palette.

Like in Mint Chocolate review I love the packaging. I'm happy they have a picture of the palette but Ulta has them on display which is even better to choose which one you like and you can swatch.

I love this hard plastic type of palette which does not feel cheap and will hold up to everyday uses. I also like the chocolate bar design. The only thing that I don't that they names of the eyshadows are on the a plastic film not the printed on the palette whether on back or next to the shadows.

As you can see this palette has 16 shades with a mix of mattes and shimmer like the mint palette. This palette has warm neutral and cool smokey plums shades. 

Swatches on bare skin: Top L-R: White Light, Don't Let Go, Break Me Up, Consume Me, All is Lost;
 Middle: Lick Me, Fool's Gold, One More Bar, Devour Me, Tear the Wrapper, Love You to Death;
Bottom: Pray for Me, Dipped, Tease Me, Set Me Free and Bring Down Angels.

As you know I love my bright colored eyeshadows but I enjoy warm neutrals too. I enjoy the formula's of both of the matte and shimmers but there is a little of fall out but you are light handed it not a problem. The shimmers are pigmented with any help of a primer as you can see from the swatches. Some of the mattes would need help from a primer but you know this girl uses a primer with all eyeshadow palettes. The shadows I love in this palette are Don't Let Go, Lick Me (nice crease color), Tear the Wrapper, White Light (perfect brow bone color) and Love You To Death (Pretty shimmer plum/purple shade). I love that is has some plum shades which you know I love purples. I think this is a nice palette and yes it does smell like chocolate but not as strong as other chocolate palettes on the market hint hint Too Faced. I still think the eyeshadows are a nice formula and if you can't see paying for a Too Faced palette you might want to check these Makeup Revolutions Chocolate palettes. They are usually $15.00 but they go on sale and Ulta has coupons. I really enjoyed this palette and I have created some eye looks that I loved. Of the two Chocolate palettes that I have tried there formula is the same. If I had to choose between this Death by Chocolate or Mint Chocolate palettes. I would choose the mint because it has the pops of colors (green, reds). That being said I still like this palette because it has every shade you would need to do a complete eye look and those plum shades. Also I saw that they have a purple chocolate palette out but only in U.K. but I hoping they come to the U.S. because I so need it in my life.

What do you think? Have you tried these Chocolate palettes by Makeup Revolution?

Hello my MJF stars,

Inside lighting with flash

Outside lighting with flash

Outside lighting with no flash

Products I used:

Orly Top2 bottom Base Coat

Essie Loot The Booty

Essie Strut Your Stuff

Jordana Quick Shine Top Coat

I was in a blue nail polish mood so I remembered how much I loved Essie Loot The Booty which is a pretty blue with blue shimmer. So I put that on and wanted to a squish marble look on two of my nail so I used Loot The Booty and another Essie polish in Strut Your Stuff. I really love how this mani came out. I would totally recommend both of these Essie polishes because they are beautiful and have nice formula's, if you can still find them in stores.

I hope you enjoyed this weeks mani.

Big Lots, Target and Costco Hauls

Hello my MJF stars,

I have three collective hauls to share with you from Big Lots, Target and Costco. Some are old and some are resent hauls, so lets get into these hauls.

This haul is from Big lots. Where I picked up some epielle aloe vera makeup remover cleansing tissues that was $1.00. I also got this Stylin' 5 pack of these phone cord hair ties for $2.00.

I saw this Modella Fashion forever makeup bag and thought it would be perfect to replace my other travel toiletry bag. It was $8.00 which is a really good price and I love the color combo. I transferred all of my stuff and it fits more than what I had in my other travel bag.

This haul is from Target which they were having a sale on movie which was 20% on chartwheel. So I got Star Wars the last jedi that was $19.99 and Winchester which was $15.99.

I finally broke down and bought a real pop socket since the ones my dad got me from online stopped sticking to my phone case. I got the Blue Nebula design which I think goes well with my star wars case and It was $9.99.

I also got this Contigo kids water bottle that has these cute elephant design on it. It was on clearance for $2.98 was $9.99. 

This last haul is from Costco which they had some Disney movies on Bluray for $8.99 each. So I got The great mouse detective, The Rescuers & The Rescuers Down Under, The Sword in the Stone and Dumbo. This is really good deal for bluray and so happy add some classics to my Disney movie collection on dvd & bluray. 

I hope you enjoyed seeing my hauls.

Bath and Body Works Hauls

Hello my MJF stars,

I have three bath and body works hauls from April and May that has not been posted oops. I also have a SAS little haul to share with you. So lets get into this collective BBW haul.

In this haul I picked up 6 of the Wallflower refills which they were 5 for $23 and I also had 20% off coupon too. So they were like $3.68 each. I got Mago Mai Tai, Mango Dragonfruit, Waikiki Beach Coconut, Pomelo Citron, Peach and Pineapple Mango. I also has a coupon for a free $5.00 item. So I got A Thousand Wishes shower gel. 

In this haul from May I had coupon for 20% off and a free $5.00 item. So I picked up a small body lotion in Pretty As A Peach since they had no shower gels in the travel size. I love the Pretty As A Peach scent. I also got 5 of the pocketbac's since my stash was gone down and I wanted some of the new scents. It was 5 for $6 and with coupon they were like $.66 each. I got My Unicorn made me do it (magical mango), Don't quit you daydream (pink Lemonade), peach mango, llamacorn (fizzy fruit pop) and Mermaid Life (Pineapple coconut). the last thing I got was this cute Royal Octopus which was by his self and I had to take him home. He was $7.75 with coupon $6.20. I love him and he lights up too.

this last haul is from the SAS which I didn't find much since they only had a few shower gels that I liked. They had no pineapple or peach scents that I like. They only had one of the peach scent I like which I got was Georgia Peach that was $3.75. I also got the Tahiti island dream which I also like that was $3.50. I was pretty disappointed with what they had. So I didn't get much.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my hauls.

Dollar Tree Haul

Hello my MJF stars,

I have another collective Dollar Tree haul so lets get into what I found this time.

I saw this cute frog welcome sign and that it would be perfect from my front door.

I was lucky find these rose candle holders which I gave to my mom for mothers day and she loved them. If you didn't know roses mean a lot to my family. These are so pretty and if I find more I might pick another one. 

I found these bikini top shells which I looking for my mermaid costume last year and thought I could be a mermaid again. I was think of painting and putting gems on them.

I also found these treat me bath burst which I picked up one of each design (heart, cup cake, ice cream, butterfly, and unicorn) for gifts because I'm not a big bath person. 

I saw this wind twister and thought I would pick one up to see if worth a dollar. It's cool but the colors faded fast which was a bummer. I was happy to find the star candle holder since you know I love stars. I wanted a blue one too but they only had silver and red.

I found one of the turtle plate and had to get it since matches my bowl I bought at Ross which was much more than $1. I have used natural white 5 minute whitening pen and it was pain so I thought I would try this one with the tray and gel. I also found this Assured compact trimmer which if you been following me awhile you know I love the pen trimmers for my face but they usually are around $7 so I thought I would give this a try. I have used it and it works but I think its best for your legs then your face. It is bigger than the pen trimmers and it hard to hold. So I probably will not buy again. 

I hope you enjoyed seeing what I hauled.

4th Of July 2018 Mani

Hello my MJF stars,
I'm here with another mani for Manicure Mondays. Since Wednesday is 4th of July, I decided to do a red, white and blue themed mani. Lets get into what I created.

Inside lighting with flash

Outside lighting with flash

Products I used:

Orly Top2 bottom Base Coat 

Sinful Colors Snow Me White

Essie Loot the Booty 

Kiss Gel Strong Maras Cherry 

Sassy+Chic Sliver Star Gem

Jordana Quick Shine Top Coat 

As I said I wanted to do a 4th of July themed mani so I decided to do a squish mani with red, white and blue. I used Snow me white as my base color for squishing the three colors which was Snow me white, Loot the Booty and Maras Cherry. I really happy how it came out but you have to make sure that you don't move the colors to much because it becomes a muddy purple mess. So if you think you want to do this mani I recommend that you put a few different dot of each color and press down not move it around which what I did. I also wanted to add some thing extra and added a silver star gem on two of my nails. If you like to try something different check out my other 4th of July mani's or my resent memorial day mani. 

I hope you have a fun and safe 4th of July.
