New Beauty Haul

 Hello, everyone! How was your weekend?

I haven't purchased too much lately as I'm mostly trying to use up products instead of collecting them. However, sometimes I run out of things or find something interesting that I want to try. So here are the few new products I picked up recently.

Lubriderm Advanced Therapy Lotion

I've decided that I want to step away from scented body lotions, at least for a while. I use a ton of scented products in my day to day life (scented soaps, detergent, hair products, perfume, etc.) that I really don't feel the need to add to the scents with my body lotion. Long story short, I bought this lotion instead of something heavily scented.

Vertex Eyeliner Stencil

 

I rarely apply eyeliner these days, and as a result I'm not very good at doing it anymore. Haha! I want to try out this stencil and see if it really helps me out.

Maybelline Dream BB Fresh Skin Hydrating Beauty Balm

 

I am STILL on a mission to find my holy grail foundation! I haven't tried this before, so here's hoping it's good.

La Roche-Posay Hydrating Gentle Cleanser

 

I've heard a lot of great things about this brand, so I decided to branch out and give it a try. I was in need of a new cleanser, so this was an obvious choice for me.

 

La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Balm B5

 

I'm not going to lie, TikTok made me buy this. I'm interested to see if it lives up to the hype.

 

 

That's everything new for me! Have you tried any of these products?

Thank you for stopping by. I hope you have an amazing week!

 

Collective Beauty Haul

Hello, everyone!  How has your week been?

I bought and was given some beauty products that I wanted to show you!

ColourPop Exes & Oh's Palette

I bought this from Ulta after the store in my town reopened.  I got a gift card for my birthday and have been dying to use it.  This is my first palette from ColourPop.  I love the colors in this palette!

L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Glow Foundation

I want to try out some new foundations so I chose this one because I've heard good reviews on it.

Maybelline Fit Me Dewy & Smooth Foundation

This is the other foundation I chose.  I tried the original Fit Me and didn't like it, but this dewy + smooth version sounds more like something I'd like.

Soap & Glory Pout About It Hydrogel Lip Mask

I've tried this mask before and really liked it so I picked up another one.

Coty Airspun Loose Face Powder

This was given to me by a friend.  I've heard so many people say how good it is so I can't wait to use it!

Essence Lash Princess Mascara

I'm in a local "splash" group, and I received this gift from a stranger.  Again, I've heard a lot of good reviews on this and I can see why.  This is so good and so inexpensive!

L'Oreal Bambi Eye Mascara

I received this from BzzAgent for review.  I actually really liked this mascara!  I usually hate the rubber bristles, but this didn't clump up my lashes like others do.

That's everything I got recently!  Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you have a great weekend!

(Another) Drugstore Haul

Hello, everyone!  Happy Memorial Day!

I know I've done quite a few drugstore makeup hauls lately, but I'm actually enjoying drugstore brands right now.  As I've mentioned before, I've shied away from drugstore makeup because the quality just wasn't there when I was in high school like it is now.  Also, my husband and I had to pay out a lot of money this year for taxes so my makeup budget isn't what it used to be.  Haha!

PSA: I decided that I was bored of the plain white background, so I'm going with a glittery black background instead.

Anyway, here's what I picked up recently!

Maybelline single shadows in Tastefully Taupe and Nude Glow

Wet N Wild single shadows in Brulee and Nutty

Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge

 Wet N Wild Photo Focus Foundation

That's everything that I picked up.  What are some of your drugstore favorites?

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a good week!

My Makeup Collection: Blush

Hello, everyone!  I hope you had a nice weekend!

For this week's "My Makeup Collection", we're diving into my collection of blushes.  I never used to wear blush because my face already has redness in it, but thanks to color correcting products, I've actually been able to play around with blush, and I've really been enjoying it.  So without further ado, here are all of my blushes!

Too Faced: Sweethearts Perfect Flush Blushes in the shades Peach Beach, Something About Berry, and Candy Glow.

 Benefit Cosmetics: Dandelion boxed blush, Dallas boxed blush, Majorette, Benetint, and Lollitint.

BH Cosmetics: Floral Blush Duos in the shades Rose, Tulip, Lilac, Daisy, and Iris.

Nars: Orgasm and Starscape (LE).

Brands that I only have one product from: Tarte Cosmetics Amazonian Clay 12 Hour Blush in Fearless, Milani Cosmetics blush in Romantic Rose, Hikari Cosmetics blush in Tango, Maybelline blush in Wash of Winter (LE), Revlon Matte Powder Blush in Blushing Berry, Model Co. blush in Peach Bellini, Clinique Blushwear Cream Stick in Glow Blush, DuWop Blush Therapy in Elixir, and Josie Maran Coconut Watercolor Cheek Gelee in Pink Escape.

Those are all of the blushes that I own so far.  I hope you enjoyed this installment of My Makeup Collection.
