MAC Extra Dimension Blush: At Dusk

I was killing some time at Nordstrom yesterday and I just happened to find the new collection with the Extra Dimension products. There were blushes, eyeshadows, and skim finishes. This blush caught my eye right away. At Dusk is a beautiful light pink blush with a sheen that is absolutely stunning. This blush lights up the cheeks and makes your complexion look amazing. I am kicking myself for not grabbing more from this collection but I will definantely keep my eye out for anything with the Extra dimension finish to it in upcoming collections. If you can find this at your local MAC pick this up, you won't be disappointed.

Swatch & Review: Wet n Wild Megalast Color Balms

I spotted these at my local Harmons the other day and scooped them up. The Wet n Wild Megalast Color Balms retail for $2.69 BUT there was a $1.00 off coupon on each product making them $1.69 plus i used my Bed Bath and Beyond 20% coupons on my order making them even cheaper than that. You really can't beat Harmons. They have new products first and they are always cheaper than drugstores, plus when you use the %20 off BB&B coupons it's a major steal. Onto the balm stains,
these are Wet n Wilds version of the chubby crayon craze. They are nice and creamy and last fairly well on the lips. There is a nice variety of colors and they definantely give the revlon balms a run for their money.

Have you spotted these in your area? Give them a try if so, i don't think you'll be disappointed.

Swatch & Review: Laura Mercier Artist's Palette for Eyes

The Laura Mercier Artist's Palette for Eyes is absolutely stunning. For $48.00 you get twelve highly pigmented eyeshadows. This palette includes mostly plums and purples with some peaches and browns thrown in the mix. The shadows are beautiful and much easier to work with than last years palette. I tried to order this palette online during the 20% VIB sale but it was sold out to the point that it wasn't even listed on the website at all. I just happened to get lucky at my local Sephora. They had three left so I scooped one up without hesitation.

The packaging is gorgeous. Sleek textured black on the outside makes this palette chic. 

These colors are absolutely stunning.

Not sure how I feel about this? Thoughts? I found this kit at Rite Aid for $7.99 and I thought it was worth a shot. We'll see.

Maybelline Fall Fashion Week 2013 Limited Edition Eyeshadows

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Maybelline Fall Fashion Week Collection! I look forward to this every August. When I saw that Nouveau Cheap had posted this years collection on her blog I ran right away to my local bed bath and beyond and scooped up the eyeshadow quads. These quads are always my favorite part of the collection and this year is no exception. The colors are beautiful! I can't wait to play with these! Xoxo

Today's Purchases

Here are a few things I picked up today while out and about. 

Josie Maran Coconut Watercolor Cheek Gelee $22 at Sephora. 

These are great! I've heard good things about these blushes so I wanted to try them out especially now in the summer time. These are very sheer but they build up to a nice flush on the cheeks all while still allowing your skin to shine through. These are very natural but I think they are perfect for the summer when you don't want anything to heavy on your face. They melt into your skin and feel great on. I bought the shades Coral Oasis and Poppy Paradise. I am really happy with these blushes. 

Essie Summer Nail Colors in The More the Merrier & Sunday Funday. $8 at BB&B

These are two fun colors for the summer. They are both from the Summer 2013 Naughty Nautical Collection. The More the Merrier is a creamy lime green and Sunday Funday is a mid tone pinky coral with silver shimmer. I love both of these colors and will be wearing them all summer. 

Anything else I should try for the summer? Please let me know. Xoxo
