Fall Haul! Sephora + Urban Decay

Ermahgerd. Fall is officially here! Autumn is by far my favorite season and this especially applies to makeup! Dark lips, jewel tones, plums. Ughhhh so much love. Anyway I recently spent waayyyy too money at Spehora and Urban Decay recently, so I thought I would show you and give you some first impressions.

It wasn't until I photographed them together that I noticed a distinct color theme

Okay first we have the crown jewel of this haul, the brand new Urban Decay Vice 2 Palette! The first few days it was out it was only available on their web site, and I cracked down. Clearly waiting the three days for it to get to Sephora would have killed me. Anyway this palette is fantastic! I'll do a separate post that's more in depth later, but quick over view: 20 eyeshadows, only dislike one, great packaging, and already used it a bunch.

Alright Sephora by OPI nail polish is on sale right now for $4.50 a bottle. Soooo I bought a couple. I got I'm With Brad a metallic wine over a dark coffee base, and On Stage an opaque grey plum. I'm so in love with both of them! I've heard rave reviews of I'm With Brad, On Stage I got as just a whim. I'm so glad I did though! On Stage is the perfect sexy unexpected neutral for fall. Also the formula for both of these is very good, particularly for On Stage.

Okay this one is also exciting and deserves a separate post. It's OCC lip tar in Black Metal Dahlia from OCC's new Monderncraft Collection. This lip tar is so ridiculously amazing! It's a blacken burgundy with TONS of red shimmer. I'm so in love!

And finally bought a tube of the Tarte Maracuja Creaseless Concealer that I love so very much. I only waited so long to buy it because a little goes a very long way, and I still had my sample from winter. (Crazy!) I'm glad I have the full size now though, the packaging is super cute! I love the little bamboo cap.

Happy fall everyone! What fall makeup are you excited for? Let me know in the comments!

Mini Lush Haul

Hey there lovely readers! The sun is shining, and its made my mood much much better! Also on the list of things that make my mood better, Lush! I stopped by and picked a couple things up.

First I got Dark Angels which is a great exfoliator for oily skin. It has a charcoal/mud base so its a bit messy, but it works really well. To use I just take a pinch, and mix with a tiny it of water to make a paste. Then I spread it on my face, and gently rub (I mean gently! Its very scrubby.) Then I leave it on for a little it and normally wash off in the shower. It has a lovely earthy scent that I'm super addicted to, but it might not suit everyone. It definitely grew on me though, so if you don't love or hate it keep using!

Then I got the You Snap the Whip Body Butter. The Lush Body Butters are an interesting product, most because the aren't 'body butters' in the slightest. They're exfoliator bars with lots of oils to nourish your skin. This one is the most hard core one of the bunch, and I really love it! You just slide it on your wet body in the shower, and it exfoliates for you. Also it smells like blackberry pie, if you've ever used Lush Sweetie Pie jelly its the same scent. =)

I really recommend both of these products, they can be purchased at Lush online or in stores.

Mini Pretty and Cute Haul!

This haul really is mini- it only has two items! But they're both exciting and adorable so I thought I'd share.


I got Holika Holika Petit Clearing BB Cream, and this cute little Etude House Perfume holder. Sephora sells a similar sort of perfumer holder, but this one is cheaper and waaay more fun. As I haven't used them yet I can't review them (I will soon though!) but I am very impressed with this site! Their shipping was really cheap, and fast. They sell Japanese and Korean cosmetics, but they're based out of Oregon so their shipping will much faster then order from overseas if you live state side like me. =)

Got my lovelies here: prettyandcute.com

Mini Ulta Haul!

Not a whole lot can cheer me up when I have bad allergies, but new makeup is one of the few things that will.  I went to ulta today with my mom to pick a few things up. I didn't go too crazy because I'm sort of broke, but I thought I'd show you guys what I got anyway beside I'm sick and inspired. XD
(Sorry about crappy picture quality!)


So I got a couple essentials my favorite dry shampoo, Batise Dry Shampoo in the Fresh scent, and L'oreal Excellence Creme hair dye in Red Penny because my hair looks like crap! I'm so sad about it too, it looked so pretty when I first did it, and then I went swimming in a chlorinated pool.... so anywhoo I'll be doing my hair again soon and show you guys
Then to go with my new hair I got NYX eyebrow powder in auburn/red, I tried it out and although it doesn't match yet I'm impressed. Then I got a couple other NYX goodies, I got their Mega Shine Lipgloss in Sponge Cake its a creamy dark neutral pink with just a little bit of shimmer (love!) and then I got their Jumbo Eyeshadow pencil in  Milk. I finally got it! Ulta seems incapable of keeping Milk in stock, its crazy! It was the last one too.

Then a couple random products, I got Maybelline's Age Rewind Easer Dark Circle Treatment Concealer in Light. Ooff! Thats a a long name. But I'm definitely excited to try this and should be reviewing it soon. And last but not least I got a Eos lipbalm sphere in Summer Fruit because I've been wanting to try it out. And I had a 20% off coupon so that was pretty great.
