Supreme, Lashes & Pigments! Oh my!

Here's my little, teeny-tiny, baby, fun-sized, haul. Lol I haven't had much time for anything since my bundle of hair (Muneka) has been here. But I recently discovered I lacked red & royal blue nail polish in my collection >.< No red polish?? I know, I know.. I should be stoned, or locked in a room with Sarah Palin. I'm not sure which is worse.. Lol jk. Honestly I've never liked how red polish looks on me. But since I was thinking of doing some fun nails for the 4th of July, I knew I had to get some.. & then I got a tad bit carried away. So here are some swatches. (:

WnW Comfort Zone
Yup, I'm a little late on this one. Lol I went back & forth for awhile on this one. I didn't want it because I never use colors like these. They're too "earthy" for me, it's not really my stilo. And at first glance, none of the colors really stood out to me. It just didn't seem worth it to me. So I got the purple & blue one instead & decided I was going to skip on this one. Until one night browsing through blogger I stumbled on some swatches of this palette. God love swatches! Because I fell inlove with this beauty..

[Click to enlarge. You won't be sorry!! I promise!]
See that little baby all the way at the bottom? Tucked away in the corner.. like a precious pearl in a crusty old oyster. lol THAT, my friends.. That is the diamond in the rough. That is the Comfort Zone's best kept secret. It's an absolutely gorgeous duo chrome, rusty, shimmery, blue-ish color. I can't explain it but just look at it. It's freakin gorgeous. Such an awesome color. I can't wait to try it on. I know I'm not the only girl who has gotten a multi-color palette solely for one color lol. Plus, come on, it's Wet n Wild! It's totally okay. (:

MAC Pink Friday
No, you guys.. You didn't just go back into time. Let me explain. I went to The Cosmetic Company Store & finally got my anxious hands on the discontinued, sold out, Nicki Minaj's Pink Friday (: Yayy. When I went yesterday, they had a pretty small selection of MAC stuff. Most of the stuff I saw was stuff that I had seen the last time I visited (like 2mos ago). So I was kinda bummed. I went to look at the lipsticks anyway.. & saw Saint Germain right away & then right next to it, one that looked almost exactly like it, but a bit darker. I picked it up turned it around & it read "Pink Friday" >.< I almost had a heart attack! It took every ounce of restraint to keep from screaming in that quiet, lonely, little store. Lol You're not even going to guess how much I got it for either. *Smug Look* $10.25!! Can you say STEAL!! Lol I was soooo excited. I feel like that store's my little secret. When I go... NO ONE is in there. Lol everrrr. When I got there yesterday, one of the two associates was outside cleaning the glass door & when I walked into the store, the second associate started talking to me thinking I was the associate outside. Lol I don't think they get many customers. And no one has ever went in while I'm there. I fear I'm their only customer & they'll go out of business soon. Lol jk. I asked the lady how often they get shipment & she said it's only about once a month & they never know what they're getting. Bummer. They have stuff from the To The Beach collection from last summer & some stuff from A Tartan Tale from the Holidays. Their MAC pigments & shadows are also marked down around 4 dollars less. I'm so glad I got this lipstick & didn't have to pay $60+ on ebay for it. =/

MAC Saint Germain • MAC Pink Friday • CoverGirl Enchantress
I swatched these other two lipsticks along side it, so ya'll could see how similar & how different they are to it. Enchantress is more of a frost though. So it looks a lot more different on the lips than the other two do.

 MAC Cornflower Pigment
How pretty!! I absolutely love this color. It's a duo chrome with like a purple-pinkish color & a blue. It's so beautiful. I love love love it. It's definitely one of my favorite colors now & I haven't even worn it yet. It's just so gorgeous.

:3 Recently I won the AllThingsLisa giveaway!! It featured Bes'Kine Lashes which are sold exclusively at a drugstore chain in Hawaii. They're handmade & are 100% human hair & are super duper soft & really easy to apply! Lisa was also sweet enough to include a handwritten note <3 [thankyou!] & two gorgeous MAC pigments. *Gaspsss!* They're freakin beautiful!! And they're my absolute favorite colors!! What a sweet sweet girl! Thanks again, Lisa!! If you're not following her, check her out here! I'm sure you'll enjoy her blog as much as I do!

Bes'Kine Lashes Y-1 & Y-10 in Brown.
They're sooo pretty. I really love the first pair. I've re-used them like three times already lol. I haven't used the second pair yet. They're super nice though. They feel really light.

MAC Pushing The Edge (Purple) & MAC Mutiny (Aqua)
These pigments are so beautiful! I immediatley dropped everything when I opened the envelope & started playing around with these lol. Me gusta *thumbs up*

I received my Supreme necklace!! I won this necklace from Christine's blog, the prize was from Pinky Loco who made the Kandee Johnson inspired Cutlass Supreme necklace. It's supperrr cute! I love it! Thanks so much Christine & the ladies at Pinky Loco <3

Yay! for finding a great deal on the Nicki Minaj lipstick! You have so many new goodies to try, can't wait to see the looks you come up with. I like red nail polish but generally it's hard to get off and it stains my nails yellow :/
