CVS Revlon NYC Haul


-Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Coral Reef and Lilac Pastel (supposedly a Lavender Whip dupe in gloss form)
-$7.99 each but get $5 ECB this week only so its like getting the second one for $2.99
-For the past few months there hasn't been any BUY ONE GET ONE FREE at CVS for the longest time. They used to have it every week and now they only had buy one get one half off which ain't as good of course. I've been wanting this ever since Hollyannaeree raved about it. I thought Riteaid had Revlon 40% off this week but its only for eyemakeup. CVS didn't have buy one get one free, it was buy any 2 Revlon lips and get $5 EBC. I suppose that's as good as it would get since I don't see buy one get one free no more. Ehh I got it anyways because I really wanted it. I think they used to be limited edition but now it's permanent.

-NYC Lip Slider Hollyannaeree said was a Baby Bait lupe so I got Sugar Kiss but just found out the one she recommended it's actually Sugar Coated! It's okay it was only $3. =]

Walmart Maybelline Haul


-Eyeshadow palette $6 something, close to $7
-Foundation on sale for $6 something, close to $7 as well

CCO Haul


-MAC Blush in All's Good (from the All Race collection) $12.25
-MAC Pigment in Cocomotion (repromoted hella times) $13.75

I usually spend $100+ everytime I go to CCO but today I only bought two items. I wanted to buy a lot because I don't visit the outlet often but I tried REALLY hard to control myself which I did! I have a TON of eyeshadows, a lifetime if not, so I don't need any more. I also have a ton of lipglosses and lipsticks too. I am still in my blush phase so I decided to get a blush. They didn't have that many so I got the one above which I can use for contour/bronzer cuz its kinda brown. I already have a sample size of Cocomotion but I really like that color and wanted to own it in the full original size! I wanted to get ALL the pigments because it was the original packaging, but I had to control myself. Oh well...

Damn its soooo cheap at the outlet compared to retail price at the stores. I think from now all I will only buy MAC from the outlet...its wayyyy cheaper!!!!!!!!!!! But I risk it if I wait for the stuff I hella want cuz what if they don't have it??? Man...I want EVERYTHING from the new Disney villain collection that comes out in the Fall...man...*sigh* what to do what to do!

I've been really liking a lot of drugstore makeup. ITS SO CHEAP compared to MAC and Sephora and the quality seem to be pretty good too. I should do a new current favorites blog or something soon since its been a while. One with high end and one with low end huh? I love buying drugstore stuff when its on sale...it makes me SOOO happy!!!

First Time Back2Mac-ing + Forever21 Earrings


1.) Instant Gold Lustreglass
2.) MAC wipes
3.) Studio Fix Powder
4.) MSF Natural
5.) Brush cleanser
6.) Charcoal Brown eyeshadow case thingy
(Babysparks Dazzleglass is in the picture but I didn't Back2Mac that because I have more than enough for this time one)


$0.00
-I got an eyeshadow because to me that's way more worth it than a lipstick or lipglass even though it's around the same price but eyeshadows lasts longer. Lipsticks and lipglasses run out or expire quick. I got "Mulch" because Itsjudytime said it was one of her first MAC eyeshadows ever and sometimes uses in her video and that made me want it lol. Its been a lonnggg while and I finally got it yay!

Since I was at the mall...stopped by Forever21...

-$3.80 at Forever21

I was originally gonna get a shit load of hoops from Icing because there was a red tag sale but it was toooooo many to handle even though it would be worth it and dirt cheap. I just didn't feel like dealing with it cuz they were all dangling so I put it back. This is my first time buying earrings from Forever21. I don't ever buy them because of my sensitive skin but the lady said this pair should be okay but no guarantees. I figure ehh why not? So we'll see. $3.80 can't hurt me too much. Plus these are super cute! I wanted to buy clothes but there were TOO many people so I was like ehh forget it I'll just stick with online shopping instead.
