Be a Runway Beauty Eye Shadow Trios (Fall Collection 2013)....what I think!

Hey there my fellow beauties!!! I have been wanting to come on here more to be able to share some of my cool findings and deals with all of you. I wish I could do more than what I currently post but being that I still work and have to take care of my soon 4 year old, I don't have as much time as I like. Sorry for the ranting...lets get on with what I am on here about.

Those that know me, know how I have said that I was attempting to do a "No Buy" until at least around Christmas Time. Well, once again that was a BIG FAIL!!!! Once again I found myself inside one of the many local Walgreens in my area and fell upon a display by one of my favorite makeup brands....Wet n Wild of course!!!! :)

A majority of the items that were in this display were current items they sale day to day. But I recognized a few new eye shadow trios that I have never seen before. The photo above from www.beautybroadcast.net has them circled. I only picked up 2 out of the 3 trios that they had and I was lucky enough to get them while they were on sale, again! The trios retail for $2.99/each and my local Walgreens had $1 off of them.

First one I picked up was #34284 Camera Obscura. I always go for the trios I know I would wear more often or at least once. This trio had some neutrals that you could work into any look you create. 

The Browbone, which is a light brownish tan matte color, and Crease, which is a sheen light pink color, were my favorite in this particular trio. The eyelid color does remind me of a color that is in my other Wet n Wild palette, Blue Had Me At Hello. Its a dark blackish blue with hints of light blue shimmer.

These are the swatches for Camera Obscura. The crease and browbone color did need a few swipes before they started to appear on my arm. I did not use an eye shadow base to apply these swatches, with one most likely the colors would have been more pigmented then they are shown in these pictures. Besides that, the colors were gorgeous on the skin. Worth the $2 for sure!!!!

The next trio I picked up was #34292 Silent Era Film. Another trio I can definitely see myself using on a regular basis. This trio also comes with some neutrals, which I love, once again easy to incorporate into any look.

The colors in the Silent Era Film Trio is as follow....the browbone is a sheer mauvey pink. The crease is a coraly pink matte color. The eyelid is a grey color with some silver hints of glitter.

The swatches above for Silent Era Film were pigmented. Once again, the crease and browbone colors both had to be swiped a few times before the colors appeared on skin, but I didn't use an eye shadow base to apply the swatches. I'm sure if I did the colors most likely would've appeared with more pigmentation.

As I said I was lucky enough to run into these on a trip to Walgreens I didn't 

even intend on going on. Talk about double score, finding these bad boys and even better, finding them on sale!!!! YEAHER!!!!! Both of these trios are a must have, especially if you are neutral look person. They are colors that are easy to work with and can go with any look or outfit. Wet n Wild is an amazing, affordable brand, you can never go wrong. Even if you do try them out and end up disliking them, its not like you paid an arm and a leg for their products. I couldn't be happier with all the products I purchased from them. One of the few companies I trust in! Now get up and find this collection before its gone, you will regret it if you don't!

Wet n Wild Beauty Army Tough Girl Craze Review

Hello my fellow makeup and sale lovers of the world!!!! So lately, I have been on a Wet n Wild binge and hunting down their new limited edition collections. First was the Pop Art Craze and now I came across their Beauty Army Tough Girl Craze Collection. This collection has both eye shadow trios and nail polishes, but I only got two of the eye shadow trios. 

Once again, I decided to purchase colors that I know I would use or that I didn't already have in my makeup collection. I got lucky to find these beauties when they were on sale at my local Walgreens. I ended up picking them up for $2/each....SCORE!!!!!

Spoiled Army Brat was definitely a mission to locate. I literally had to go to 3 different Walgreens before I located it. I definitely wanted to take advantage of the sale before it was over. I wasn't going to give up and I'm glad that I didn't. 

This is a pretty pink palette. Pink is my favorite color so I just had to have this in my makeup collection. The eyelid colors is a nice light pink which does come off a bit chalky but is very pigmented. The crease color (my favorite of the palette) is like a light cranberry pinkish red color. Last but not least, the browbone color is a pinky mauve color, and took a few swipes before it was able to be seen on my skin. 

The eyelid and crease colors are both matte and the browbone color does have a bit of a sheen to it. Beautiful in general. Love this palette!

The other palette I picked up and just had to have, was Soldiers in Charms. The greens are what caught my attention. This palette definitely fit into the theme of this collection...automatically thought Army Fatigues when I saw it. Also, these color are PERFECT fall colors and I feel like these colors are going to be the "IT" color for fall. 

The eyelid color is a greenish gray color which I have never seen before and DO NOT have in any of my eyeshadow palettes already. The crease color, which is sooooo beautiful, is a very dark deep green with gold shimmer in it. The browbone color, is a very bright sort of lime green color and came across a bit chalky as well. 

The eyelid color is matte. The crease color has shimmer/glitter. The browbone color has a bit of a sheen to it. 

A definite MUST HAVE in your makeup collection. There were a total of 6 eye shadow trios from this collection. All the colors and finishes of these trios looked gorgeous but I didn't get them all since I didn't see myself using them or I had similar colors already in my collection. In general, Wet n Wild's is already so affordable for a great quality of makeup. These trios originally run $2.99/each which is as if you were paying $1 for each eye shadow, not bad at all!!! On top of that, they're beautiful pigmented colors and you won't be disappointed. 

I'm hoping to be able to get some of the nail polishes from this line and hope to share them with you when and if I do get them. Those are $3.99 or $2.99/each, I don't remember...sorry. Waiting to see if they eventually go on sale so I can pick them up. 

I have only seen this particular collection in Walgreens and some at Kmart as well. So, what are you waiting for?!??? Go get these babies!!!!!!!

COLORS COLORS COLORS!!!! Wet n Wild's Pop Art Craze Eyeshadow Trios (Limited Edition)

HELLO LOVELY LADIES!!!!! I know it has been a long time since I posted anything on my blog....I am so sorry, but life has been crazy for me the last few months. I am somewhat back on track and have finally found some time to sit down and post about this limited edition collection by Wet n Wild. I know I am probably really late with this post and many people have already spoken about this collection but either way I wanted to let you guys know how I felt about it.

The Pop Art Craze Limited Edition Collection!!!! Let me first start off by saying, WOW!!!! The display, in general, caught my eye within an instant. I did hear about it in advance through social sites and those that are beauty ambassadors with Wet n Wild, so I was already super excited for this line to come into stores :) I believe they started making their debut in the beginning of July 2013. I found this display at my local Walgreens (they were $2.99/each, I believe).

As is shown, there were both eye shadow trios and nail polishes that were part of this limited edition collection. I did not pick up all the eye shadow trios since some of the colors would be colors I would probably never use. But I did pick up the two that I believed I would get the most use of. I did also pick up a majority of the nail polishes (since they were on sale for $.69 at the time), but I will not be posting them in this particular blog (look for one in the future).

One of the eye shadow trios I purchased was in #34166 Hard Being the It Girl.

I loved every color that was in this trio. One thing I absolutely loved is that all the colors are Matte. I probably won't use the brow bone color for my brow bone but I can see myself using it as the eyelid color. I can see myself using the eyelid color as a brow bone color as well. Both the eyelid color and brow bone color are pretty much neutrals that you can pull off with any look. My favorite color from this trio is the crease color. It is super pigmented and the blue is such a beautiful bright color to accent this look.

The cream and pink colors did appear a bit chalky which was a bit disappointing but I am sure I can still make it work somehow. If you are someone that is not afraid of color or is willing to try a bit of color this trio would definitely work for you. It still has some basic soft colors but the blue surely does add a pop to your look, to make it a bit daring and different.

The other trio I picked up was in #34169 To Muse and Carouse. I think this trio was the perfect colors for summer. Since it did come out in July, this was a great combo for that time of the month. As the other trio I purchased, all the colors in this trio are also all Matte. The eyelid and crease colors were both super pigmented, as for the brow bone color, I did have to get a few swipes before I could get any color to appear on my skin. 

These colors weren't as chalky as Hard Being the It Girl. I love the combo and feel like these colors would make a gorgeous eye look, as I said for the summer time. I still feel if you don't use as much of the aqua eyelid color, I am sure it could still work during the fall season as well. This trio can suit any makeup lover out there, the colors aren't too bold, where it would make anyone think twice before purchasing it. The feel of the eye shadows are very silky smooth.

The other trios in this collection were a bit more colorful and bright. I didn't purchase them since I didn't see myself using them. Since, I did purchase this with my own money, I didn't want to spend it on something that wouldn't ever be used. They were all beautiful colors and some were pretty daring colors. 

I don't know if these are still available in stores but if you are lucky to come across them, ACT FAST!!!! I got lucky to find them when I did and made sure to purchase the ones I wanted. If you wait, they will be gone, believe me! I am sure you can also check online and find somewhere or someone that is still selling them. Wet n Wild is so affordable and all the trios that I have tried I have LOVED!!!! The colors are super pigmented and so beautiful on the eyes.

I did also purchase 2 of the eye shadow trios from the new Beauty Army Tough Girl Craze, so keep an eye out for that blog NEXT!!!!

Deal of the Day....Walgreens!!!!

Well hello there strangers...man has it been a long while! My fault totally, but I am back with a new deal of the day for you guys :) Actually more like deals of the day!

So you know me and my hunting down good clearance deals, and I am always visiting the usual locations for some good items for some amazing prices.

Today's deals of the day were found at my local Walgreens. If you didn't already know, I am a big fan of Sinful Colors Professional Nail Polishes. As I was scrounging thru Walgreens clearance area lucky me found some Sinful Colors Professional items. Not just nail polishes but other things that I was unaware that they even sold there.

All of these items were 50% off at Walgreens. I am not going to say it is at every location since every Walgreens locations clearance items are different and vary. As I said earlier I just got really lucky!!

Starting off, this is the first time I even saw this item being sold at Walgreens, and I so happen found it in the clearance bin. I found a few of these in different colors. Also, this is the first time I attempted using nail glitters in general. So, I only decided to purchase two of the colors to see how i felt about them.

I got the colors:

*Glitterazzi, which is just a basic gold glitter

*Sparkle City, which is just a basic purple glitter

I have used Glitterazzi one time already and as a first time nail glitter user it was a little messy, but made my nails look so cute!!! You know I had to post of photo on my instagram showing them off :) LOL!!!

Some other items I picked up at Walgreens was of course one of their nail polishes, especiially since it was only $.99 and also I found out that Sinful Colors carried lip glosses as well. So I decided to get one of their colors to try out and the color was cute too! So who wouldn't get it when it is just $1.50?!?!?

The nail color I got is called Rain Storm, it is a very pretty greyish blue color and perfect for the fall/winter time, but I will rock it when I feel like it...lol!!!

The lip gloss color I picked up is called Fruit Cocktail and is a pretty coral color and looks to be pigmented, I have yet to wear it, but just swatching it here seems like it is.

I always get lucky enough to find some pretty good deals on some pretty good items by great companies. It just takes alot of patience! So just take the time to look around at your favorite stores because you never know what you might find.

Until my next posting...XOXOXOXO!!!!!

Wet n Wild Megalast Liquid Lip Color....My thoughts!

Hey guys!!!!! So lately I have been so into Wet n Wild, thanks to their Fergie Centerstage Collection :) But as every other Cosmetic line out there, January is the month that new products are introduced to the public. That is how I found out about the Wet n Wild Megalast Liquid Lip Colors. I actually saw someone I follow on Instagram post a photo of one she got, so it definitely peeked my interest!

This line has such a variety of colors for everyone...if you love reds, pinks, nudes, browns, then there is a lip color for you!

Personally I am a fan of pinks and reds. So I picked up:

-920A Coral Me Bad (lower left)

-922A Cherry On Top (lower right)

-929A Rose To The Occasion (upper left)

-924A Click On My HyperPink (upper right)

For those of you who haven't seen or tried these lip colors yet they do set as a matte on your lips. So they do have a dry yet sticky feel. The staying on power is amazing though, they do have a long lasting effect. So long lasting that it is a pain to take off!

To help with the dry matte feel and look I usually add some gloss or other lipstick that has a bit moisture and shine to it. 

I personally don't like how dry it appears after it has settled once applied. The colors are beautiful on the lips besides that little flaw.

If I had to rate this I would give it a 7!

The colors are amazing and there is a variety.

The staying power is super long!

BUT....

If you're not a fan of matte lip colors you won't like this product.

It does set extremely dry and doesn't feel good when you attempt to press your lips together.

To take it off requires some kind of makeup remover or else you will rubbing the heck out of you lips for a long time without!

I am not saying I hate the product but with pros there are always cons...as I always say everyone has their own opinions. I am happy with what I have and I don't think I will be picking up anymore colors. Will I repurchase these items maybe but probably not, I prefer my wet n wild lipsticks better.

Give them a try and let me know what you thought about them and what your fav colors were :)

Of course I had my favorites...(everyone does) LOL!!!!

-920A Coral Me Bad

-922A Cherry On Top

My top 2!!!!

Feeling Fergilicious with Wet n Wild!!!

OMG!!!!!! Fergie has won my heart over and so has Wet n Wild. I have bought a few of Wet n Wild cosmetics but nothing that I was too crazy about, but this new line has me in LOVE!!!!!

Not only is it affordable the quality is amazing for the price you are paying.

I have only purchased one lipstick and one of the shimmer palettes but I am looking forward to purchasing some more, soon hopefully!!!

The first item I purchased that made me interested in the Fergie Centerstage Collection was the lipstick in Ferguson Crest Cabernet......OMG!!!!

Not only is the packaging super cute, the color and the staying power is to die for!!!! I made a great color choice for only buying one to try out :) It has sort of a matte look but still has a bit of moisture to it too! Which is a perfect lipstick for what I like. I am so impressed with this lipstick line and I can't wait to get some of the other colors from this line.

Another item that I purchased from this line was the Shimmer Palette in Rose Champagne Glow. The colors are what drew me in when I saw this palette.

I definitely saw this as being a highlighter, I also found it to be a good dupe for theBalm's Mary Lou Manizer Highlighter. For the price I couldn't be more impressed. The pigment of this shimmer palette is amazing and its not too much shimmer which I like :)

Just enough to accent the cheeks after putting on a bit of blush.

Another great thing that I liked was that Walgreens had $1 off coupon on the display for this line, way to go Wet n Wild!!!! I couldn't be more impressed and more excited to continue using some more of your items.

Keep an eye out I have also purchased a few of the New Megalast Liquid Lip Colors and hopefully I will be posting some reviews on that soon!!!!

Until then...see ya'll later!!!! XOXOXO <3
