Thank you Nessa♥ + LA Colors + Fancy Steps !!

I received some really awesome stuff from my girl Nessa from Nessa♥sMakeup. So firstly & foremost Thank Youuuu, beautiful! I'm still building her a little thank you package 'cause she's been so sweet! If you don't already follow her, check her out. She does killer makeup.

Guns blazing, kid. I looove this ring. I forgot to show the back of it, but it's a stretch ring. & When you wear it on your ring finger, the barrel part goes across your middle & your index finger. Sooooo cool! I love it. I want to wear it everyday. +It blings like crazy. ♥ She put it in the little damask baggy that's under it. How adorable!

Revlon Prim Rose I had heard so many good things about this lipstick. Nessa had told me it was like Pink Pout in creme finish. My jaw dropped 'cause I love me some Pink Pout lol. So when I saw this in the package, I nearly died lol I didn't know this was what she was sending. It's just beautiful.. the swatch pic speaks for itself. Dare I say, I love it more than Pink Pout because of the finish & even the color is softer. It's utter perfection!

I♥Matte Nessa sent me this when it first came out because it was nowhere to be found in my area. It's been weeks now & I have yet to see it anywhere down here! lol So I'm especially thankful she grabbed an extra one for me! The colors are awesome & I've been using the neutral colors a lot for my everyday makeup. I mix both browbones for a matte highlight & the tan eyelid color with the flesh colored browbone color in the crease to blend whatever color I use on my lids. I love it! It's such a good palette to have with great basic colors you can use everyday along with some really fun, colorful mattes too. I lurveee it!

Fancy Steps • Diamond Pumps

Eeeep! I first saw these on my Facebook feed. Fancy Steps usually posts sneak peeks of what will be going up on their site. I instantly fell inlove with these! My Snickerdoodle was like "You want them? I'll get them" D'awww! He's so wonderful. We had free shipping & the shoes had a 10% discount then. In all honesty though, pictures do these babies no justice. They are so much more amazing in person. They shine like.. well.. like diamonds. ^.^ Here's a direct link to them.

L.A. Colors Trios + Swatches

First of all, I have to tell ya'll I feel like each trio is the best dollar I've spent in my life. lol These trios are awesome & I just love them. After going back & forth for a couple days on whether to buy these or not (I didn't think I'd use them) When I went out to look for them again, there weren't any left! ;( After seeing them on BeautyyMonsterr's blog. I fell inlove with them again lol I went to the Dollar Tree in the next town over & found them! The only ones I didn't get where Grassy Knoll (I have too many greens I don't wear already) & Tiki Punch. I really wanted that one but they didn't have it. On their website, they have all kinds of new colors. But I didn't see any of those. Also, why is there an emboss design on the shadows on their site but not on the shadows I have. v,v No es cool. Moving along, these are nicely pigmented & really soft! For a dollar a pop, I have zero complaints. So on with the swatches!! ♥

October Collective Haul: The Good Stuff.

[Pic Heavy] A collective haul of some things I got in October that I think are amazing/worth mentioning.

Muji Drawers [Acrylic 5 Drawer Case]

Ohmylanta. I first saw these on Heart Kristel's blog & thought they were soo awesome. Fast forward to a couple months later & she posted that the Muji drawers were back in stock 'cause apparently they're pretty darn popular & sell out quickly. They're pretty much my favorite thing I've gotten in awhile. The drawers are kind of small (height-wise) but they still fit a lot of stuff. The two bottom pics are to show how much you can actually store in them. The exact measurements given by the site are: 10.2 x 6.9 x 6.3" o.O But um.. I don't understand that language. I understand this.. They're about the length of 2 lipsticks. The width of about 11-12 miscellaneous lipsticks. The height is like stacking 2 WnW palettes/trios. The only bad thing is that they're not tall enough to fit MAC pigments. Overall, I love these! I was able to fit almost everything. I plan on getting another one later on, when I have enough to fill one up with. I forgot how much shipping to Texas was.. I want to say the whole order came out to around $35. You can check them out here. [Note: Some of the Muji drawers were taken on different days. I re-arranged some things here & there]

WnW Party Of Five Glitters • LA Colors Jewel Tone • LA Colors Sea Siren • LA Colors Intimate

I love all of these. In the pictures above, I'm wearing Intimate on my nails. It's a pretty nude with a pretty pinkish sheen. In my last post, I was wearing Sinful Colors Midnight Blue with Jewel Tone over it. [here] And in a previous post, I used Sea Siren. [here] I've worn the Party of Five with Midnight Blue also but didn't take pictures. It's beautiful though. The only thing that bugged me about it is that it takes me like 10 coats to get enough glitter on there lol. And even though it's "Fast Dry" it dries the same as any other polish. I really love the way it looks afterwards though!

NYX Louisiana • NYX Iconic • NYX Castle

Iconic is beautiful! I also got B52 but it was so similar to Iconic, I gave it to my mom. She loves it too lol. Lousiana is a really pretty red pink. & Castle is unlike any lipsticks I have. I think it's pretty fitting for the season. Now, we'll see if I actually wear it out. lol All the NYX stuff is from beautyjoint, by the way.

Sinful Colors Lipglosses • Pucker Up • Wink • Goddess • Fushia

That's actually how they spelled Fuchsia. Anyway! I saw these at Walgreens one day & nearly spazzed out. I had only seen SC l/g online. Our small town is very much deprived of awesome things.. We get everything mad late. So when I saw these, I was super excited lol. My favorite has to be Wink. Just because of the milky baby pink color. It's so pretty. My only problem with these is that they're a bit on the sticky side. I'm surprised that it hasn't stopped me at all from wearing them quite often though. I think I'm just a sucker for Sinful Colors & I love the packaging. It's simple but nice. I'm definitely getting more of these... for collection purposes.

 NYX Lipgloss: Natural • Doll Pink | NYX Loose Pigments: Jade • Turquoise

 I wanted a nude lipgloss & thought Natural would do but it's a bit too dark for that. It looks really pretty over most colors but especially colors like Tea Rose & Iconic. Doll Pink is just as beautiful as I dreamt. It's such a pretty & opaque gloss. A must have for the all-things-pink lover! I randomly got these loose pigments. Man these things are tiny! lol Like literally the size of my thumb. I never wear green e/s but I got Jade to encourage myself to try it more. I have yet to touch the stuff lol.

Hannah Multicolored Dangle Earrings • Cubic Zirconia Studs

These are another favorite buy. I got both of these for $12. Yayy! lol I got these from Bealls. I feel like I'm constantly buying faux diamond studs. I always lose the little back parts & end up losing my studs. My ears are pierced twice on each ear & I like to wear them on the top piercing with whatever on the bottom piercing. Siggghhh. I hope these stick around longer than the last ones.

Ebay Lashes

I recently restocked on these babies. The 60 pairs usually last me about 8-9 months. I end up re-using a lot of them because the quality is pretty decent. The only bad thing, is that you always end up getting some that are all folded up lol. But you get what you pay for, I guess. These come out to around $10 for all six boxes.

MAC Turquoise Glitter

I found this at good ol CCO! I want to say it was around $10-11. Which is pretty good! The glitter is gorgeous & I've already played around with it & plan to use it in a post really soon. I'm having trouble trying to capture it well on camera though. By itself, I can get the shot fine. But when it's on my eyes, you can't even see it in my pictures. Idk why but it's so pretty. I miss these jars btw.

MAC Viva Glam Gaga • MAC Of Royalty

Finallyyy! I got the first Gaga & it's gorgeous. It's a Lustre which is not my favorite finish in the world, I actually steer very clear of them lol.. but the color is still very pretty. I also found Of Royalty which is my favorite, between the two. It's also a very pretty milky pink like the Wink lipgloss. 

Nicki Pumps from Fancy Steps

And last but certainly not least, are these gorgeous, leopard, spiky, heels from CurvesAheadMakeup's awesome online shoe boutique called Fancy Steps. I didn't actually buy these shoes, my man got them for me lol. Isn't he wonderful? :3 Ever since the website was launched, they caught my eye. I eyeballed them for a good 5 mins & even bookmarked the page lol. They are so gorgeous. I saw that they also had them available in black & in a light cream color. I had to stop myself & tell myself to slow down. "One pair at a time." We got them in the last days of October when they were having their free shipping promotion. Eeep! There's that free shipping again. lol Here's the direct link but it looks like the leopard ones are sold out. I've wanted shoes with spikes on the ends for a long time & these are similar & even add a different flare to it. The whole shoe is like a velvety material. Even, the black trim on the platform part of the shoe is velvety. The spikes are super cute & super shiny. They're just such a dream. I love them. & I think it's pretty obvious that my Munekiz loves them too.


Thanks so much for stopping by
