Cheap Palette

Hey again. I just bought this palette from DD's Discounts (if you are unfamiliar with the store, it's a sister company to Ross). Anyways, I went there looking for e.l.f. stuff. I did see some e.l.f products like nail polishes and these sets, but I was looking for a specific set. Anyways, This one I got was only $4.99. Pretty good and the colors came out really nice.






These swatches are done without base.

Smokey Green!

As you can see, I am never creative with blog titles. OWELL! Here goes my smokey green look. I have done green looks before, but they were using different products.

I used 2 colors out of this NYX trio.
The 3 colors L-R are Spring Leaf/Lime green/Green Tea

e.l.f swatches

Ugh, I should be studying AND making Power Point slides for school, BUT it's break time!

These are swatches from a previous e.l.f. haul that I posted a bit ago.
Healthy Glow Bronzing Powders in Warm Tan and Sun Kissed. The website says "A touch of sunshine to warm up every complexion with its soft and silky texture for a beautiful and natural glow."

I've used the Sun Kissed and it seems a bit too glittery and ultra shimmery, but if used very lighty, it does give a nice glow to the skin. I like to think of these 2 bronzers as MAC's Wooodwinked and Tempting eyeshadow! I have Wooodwinked, but I am too lazy to actually compare the 2, but I should try creating an eye look with these, huh?!

Sun Kissed (L), Warm Tan (R)




They're only a dollar each. Great deal =)

Wet n Wild Lipsticks

Review and swatches!

So I went to Walgreens and picked up 2 Wet n Wild lipsticks. Don't ask why I choose 2 hot pinks. Haha. Unfortunately I am only happy with one of them.

511B is a very pretty hot pink color. It's almost like a lipstick + lipgloss because of the shine that's in it. I really like this one.

505A is a frosty hot pink. Almost metallic pink. Depending on the angle of the light that shines on it, it can either be a hot pink with little glitters in it OR a bright frosty lighter shade. Not too fond of this one.

Overall, I think it's a great buy. At only $.99 each, why not try to see which one works for you and which one don't. Many stores also have great return/exchange policies if you're not completely satisfied with your purchase. Just make sure you ask beforehand if you're not too sure! Head over to Christy's page (nuts4makeup.wordpress.com) because she just recently did a review on Wet n Wild Lipsticks too!

See ya soon!
