Fashion Haul

Hi everyone!

Here is a little fashion show of the clothes I purchased from forever 21 & hollister! I've been loving their clothes lately. They have a lot of off the shoulder shirts and crop tops. I love that look! It's so comfy and cute looking for the summer and spring. Also, I'm a massive bow freak so when i see bows i have to get it! lol. Enjoy!

sparkly grey top with rhinestones all over except the back, with black skinny jeans, & black mini heel flat.
shirt from hollister with bows near the v-neck! so cute
shirt with bows everywhere! too cute! with a bow necklace also from forever 21 =)
similar to the first shirt with the rhinestones all over in the front but off the shoulder!
this shirt is a see through material crop top that is off the shoulder. Originally it wasn't a crop top, it was much longer but I put it in the wash and it shrunk into a crop top. lol it still worked out fine. ^^ also underneath is a simple black tank top with frills on the strap.

I hope you like my little fashion haul!
Thanks for reading!

oh & my nails atm =)
It's so cute! i love it~

Mini Mac!

Went to the mac cosmetics store a couple of weeks ago and purchased a little bit of make up. I'm really loving their eyeshadows, lipsticks, and paint pots! I still need to get some other products from them to try!
It seems that a lot of people are loving the lipstick from mac called "Creme Cup" which is a cremesheen lipstick and it's suppose to be moisturizing on the lips.
I love the color! It's so pretty, but it really shows my lip lines when i put it on & you need really need moisturized lips to make it look nice. Iono why but my lips have so much lines on it and it gets chapped easily... If anyone knows a really good lip balm that helps smooths out my lips please let me know! I'd like to try it out.

Another item I picked up was mac's paint pot in "bare study"
it's sooooo pretty. omg. i love putting it on my eyes. It just gives your eyeshadows the slightest sparkle or shine. I've been wearing it almost everyday since i got it. i'm definitely loving it.

Here swatches of the two:
"Bare study" (top) & "Creme Cup" (bottom)

hope you enjoyed reading!

Skin 79 B.B Cream review!

Hi ladies!

I've been using the Skin 79 B.B cream for about 2 weeks now almost everyday, and I absolutely love it.
The texture of the B.B cream is so light and smooth, which makes the application so smooth. I use my fingers to apply this B.B cream, and it blends very nicely into my skin. I haven't tried with a brush because I think using your fingers is so much faster & it works really well. No need dirty to a brush. =) Also, B.B creams aren't made to have full coverage like a MAC Studio Fix Foundation. It's like a tinted moisturizer but better in my opinion because it has properties that help your skin. This B.B cream has about medium coverage, which I think is pretty good! I just go in with concealer afterward on my problem areas. Unfortunately, for this B.B cream there is only one shade of color, and if you're light/medium skin tone it might work out for you. However, even if you're a little more on the medium skin tone, I think you could dust some bronzer on your face to make it match your skin tone better or use a powder foundation around the face. It could work too. ^^ This B.B cream also oxidizes on your skin after a little while, which makes it look slightly darker than when you freshly put on. Also, this B.B cream has whitening, anti-winkle, and UV Protection of SPF 25 PA++ properties, which is really good for your skin! It has SPF which helps protect your skin from the sun. Also, the best part I love about this B.B cream is that it whitens any dark spots. I have lots of acne scars on my forehead and cheeks & omg... It really has reduce the dark scars very well for me. I've noticed that it has gotten a lot better and less noticeable. And of course I don't know about anti-winkle cuz I'm too young to get wrinkles! lol But overall, I really like this B.B cream. It's nice to have when you just don't want to have so much stuff on your face and is always on the go.

Asian Cosmetics

I FINALLY got my hands on some dolly wink products which I LOVE cuz of the packaging. It's soo cute! =) I purchased the brown pencil eyeliner, the eyeshadow quad in 01 brown, & My beauty diaries masks pack. The boyfriend bought me the Skin 79 Triple Function B.B cream and the dolly wink liquid eyeliner. <3

I already tried all the products and I'm obsessed with the dolly wink eyeliner! It was the only liquid eyeliner that has lasted on my oily eyelids without any smudges! FREAKING LUBBERZ! <3 lol I've tried many different liquid and gel liners and they all end up smudging on my eyelid fold because I have monolids and it drives me nuts, makes me look like i have a black eye with my eyeliner on my water line running too. lol i haven't found an eyeliner that lasts on my water line yet though.. the dolly wink pencil smudges a bit but not as bad as other eyeliners, so not bad. I'll do a comparison post one day.

Loves the eyeshadows too because it's pretty colors and pigmented and of course cute packaging! eeps! <3 I always appreciate the cute details on the packages because when I like whip it out, it's like OHH CUTE packaging and i'm like I know rightttt? ^___^ haha i'm such a dork. but yeh. I love everything I have purchased so far and will do reviews on them in more detail later. Thanks for reading!

New China Glaze Crackle

I was so excited to try the china glaze crackle becuz it has so many different colors which drew me into it compared to the opi shatter where they only had black. I got it at my local Sally's beauty supplies and the one near my house were really almost sold out of it. =( I only got my hands on the dark purple one called "Fault Line" It's really pretty but i had my heart set on the mint green color. so sad they didnt have it. sob! I might try other sally's beauty supplies stores to see if they have other colors. I'm determined to get the mint green one! lol overall, I thought it was pretty cool! I liked how it shattered instantly and the color is so pretty. =) I added glitter on top of the shatter nail polish and it looks gorgeous!

Here is what it looks like on my nails. I put it over China Glaze "Light as air"

It looks like imma claw someone. lol iono why i posed my fingers like that. XD

Mac Studio Fix Fluid Foundation Review

My thoughts about the MAC foundation I bought was that it was not for me. The best thing about this foundation is that it had REALLY good coverage and it matched my skin tone really well! It made me skin look amazing, but I just didn't like the smell of it and when I put it on my skin, I felt itchy right away. Then afterwards I started getting small breakouts. I guess for me it didn't react well as I hoped... =( My skin type is combination where my T-Zone is very oily but my cheeks and around the nose is very dry. I ended up returning it to MAC and they were very nice and the refund transaction was smooth. They accepted it with no problem. Overall, I was so sad that it didnt work well with my skin.. I was hoping it would! lol but it's okay. Time to go hunt for a new foundation for me. =)

Shopping!

Shopping is a stress reliever for me. lol It's so bad. I spent time with my BFF that I have not hung out with in so long! I missed her. =( but anyways we went shopping and I got so many cute things!

First...

I finally got my hands on some MAC cosmetics. I've always wanted to try it, so I bought myself the studio fix fluid foundation in NC30 and Woodwinked. I really like the coverage of the foundation so much, but i'm so worried it might break me out cuz alot of people broke out from it. Everytime I apply it my face feels a bit itch shortly after, but i haven't really broken out that bad. I might continue to use it a little more and see. I love my woodwinked eyeshadow. It's amazing and so pretty! I love the golden sheen it gives to my eyelids! I can't wait to go back and get more eyeshadows. I'm also going to get myself a lipstick as well and blush or gloss. I haven't decided yet. =)

Went to Charlotte Russe and got these really cute rings!..

they remodeled the whole place and have new stuff and i just love that store so much! they definitely made their clothes and accessories much cuter! They have so many bows and i love bows hence why I got the gold bow connector ring. It's so adorable! me and BFF both got the wing ring together. =) I love it.

I also went to forever21 and got the cutest jacket and the color is magenta as well a cute striped shirt with bow details in the back. Very adorable and unique. Wearing them together matches very well. =)


I also purchased some small beauty products =)...

NYC Nailpolishes: Starry Silver Glitter, Manhattan, Canal Street, Park Ave

I have Park Ave on my nails at the moment. I really like it a lot!



New Revlon Colorburst Lipgloss in "Orchid", Revlon Colorstay Pencil Eyeliner in "Noir", Rimmel Soft Kohl pencil eyeliner in "pure white"

Oh! I also found a neat tip for rings. If you have a fake ring that makes your fingers green and gets discolored, all you have to do is take a top coat nailpolish and paint the ring area inside and out. Then let it dry and that is it! you could wear it now without it making your fingers green or discoloration! =) I hope it helped!

That's all! Thanks for reading^^
