Free Eyelashes!

My free eyelashes finally arrived in the mail the other day! I'm stoked! I've never tried fake eyelashes before and I'm excited to be able to try them for free. Yay!



The eyelashes were part of a promotion from the born pretty store. Here is the link to their store. If you follow their facebook regularly then you know that they do promotions every so often for free products. This is my first free product from them and I am excited to try them out! You can find their facebook page here.


These eyelashes are really cute, I'm just not a big fan of the little flowers on them but I'm sure I can just easily remove them. Also with these, I'll have to purchase some glue to be able to wear them. Aren't they cute?! I can't wait to try them out!



Has anyone bought from this company before or received their free eyelashes? If you aren't a follower of their blog, go check them out!

Free Polish And Other Goodies!

image provided by google



Hi Ladies!
I just wanted to share with all of you a great way to get your hands on some free makeup along with other items like books, electronics and pet stuff! I started doing this only due to the fact that since I'm the only one working and I have no extra money to myself to spend on makeup or whatever else I want, it's a great way for me to get some extra money and pamper just ME.
So for the past 3 weeks I have been doing swagbucks. It's this site that rewards you for doing day-to-day basic stuff like watching videos, surveys, searches, polls and other fun stuff. To learn more on it click here

My mom's friend actually introduced me to this and at first I was skeptical. I really thought "Wow, this is going to take me forever!" and it did at first. I got frustrated with it and wasn't getting many points at first. Then I got the flow down and started getting more points. I did a few surveys and points started adding up quickly. I ended up getting my first $5 amazon gift card 2 weeks ago. Now I'm ready to almost get my 4th gift card. It's awesome. As long as you have a schedule on how to do it and when, you'll be fine. Like I usually run the swagbucks tv when I'm at home on the weekends doing laundry and other chores. You don't have to sit there and wait. Just click the video, when it's done, click another one. It's simple! Plus who doesn't like free makeup! You can purchase almost anything at amazon.com!

If you feel like signing up, you get 30 points to start with and of course you'll just have to click the link above. If you need any help understanding anything about it or how to work it just feel free to send me a message and I'll be glad to help and let you know about codes that are out there for you to grab and easy ways to get more points.

Have fun!

Happy Easter!!!!!

Happy Easter Everyone!! I hope everyone has a great day!
My mom always sends us candy for Easter. So I thought I'd share with you what she sent.
The candy she sent is candy from the 80s which some of it I was really wondering if it was from the 80s or not. lol.

It has razzles, fun dip, candy necklace, ring pop, push pop, hersheys bar, automic fire ball gum, jaw breakers, boston baked beans and so on! I <3 Candy!

I hope everyone has a great Easter :D 

Mini Target Haul

Today my friend Lauren and I went to Target to get some nail polish that I had a coupon for. I actually saw this post on The Coupon Posse'.
She posted up a coupon for NYC nail or lip products. $1 off one product! Not bad. Well Target right now has then at $1.76. So minus the $1 coupon and it's $0.76 cents. With Tax it's $0.78 cents!
What a bargain for a nail polish. That's cheaper than some of those little mini bottles.
Anyway, here's the link to her post for the coupon.

Moving on. These are the two nail polishes I got for $0.78 cents each because I printed up 2 coupons and did two different transactions.


Left: Sidewalkers and Right: Midtown

Sorry for the some what horrible pictures. I don't have the fancy camera on me so I actually had to use the flash to get the colors to look like how they do in real life.

Anyway, the colors are gray and a really pretty somewhat sparkly pink with blue sparkles (I guess). I've been looking for a gray nail polish that was cheap so I could actually see how gray nails look on me and of course I wanted another pink nail polish because my medicine cabinet is over run with greens lol.
Anyway, go get your coupon and go buy some cheap nail polish!!

I guess the support wasn't there ...

I wanted to be able to say thanks to everyone who voted for me but since no one voted...I can't say thank you. I'm patiently waiting to see if I won or if this other guy one. It'll be close and I really hope I won. The boyfriend and I could use the money for food. I guess I will let everyone know whether I win or not.

Just a Reminder....

April 22nd, 2011 is the last day to vote on my photo. I'd really appreciate it if you all would support me in trying to win this contest. To see information about it just check out my last two posts..It should be the post right after the e.l.f lip stain.

I appreciate it you guys!!!

<3

e.l.f Lip Stain: First Date

Hello Ladies! It's been awhile!
I purchased a new product today which is shocking because I basically banned myself from buying any makeup products until my boyfriend gets a job.
Well, this lip stain by e.l.f was only $1 at the Dollar store and I couldn't help but pick it up to try.







I'm not 100% sure if I like this yet or not. It's one of those items that you don't really know if you should like it or hate it.

Pros:
Says it's long lasting and I wore it for a little while today and it seems pretty long lasting
Really pretty pink coral like color with slight gold sparkles
Can be worn with or without the gloss
Cons:
Lip stain stinks! I was like "woo this smells horrible!"
Tubes get really messy when you close them..I feel like I'm constantly wiping excess product off of the tube.

I will try to put up some pictures later of it on my lips so you all can see it.


Have any of you ladies tried these lip stains by e.l.f? What was your opinion?

It's Been Awhile: Oh Noes!

Sorry everyone! I've kinda been MIA from blogging the past few days (well almost a week). One of my best friends from Arizona (Phoenix to be exact) is here visiting and I've been trying to make time to see her along with working. That doesn't leave much time for blogging. Plus without a lot of money, I haven't purchased any new makeup or other products. 

I wanted to post some pictures of what I've been doing the last couple of days. I know a couple of you are on my facebook and you've probably seen some of those pictures. I'll share the rest with all of you here. 

:] Enjoy!

My Friend Jaime and my Best Friend Kerri (I hooked them up)
The Hubs and Me. It's rare that you see me posting a full out picture of me >.<


The awesome thing of the past two days is that I did my makeup really well and actually looked pretty cute. lol. Not trying to sound conceited..but when dealing with low self-esteem it's a rarity for me to say I actually look pretty lol.

 I actually made the little hair clip I'm wearing and my boyfriends dad and step mom got me the necklace.

The day was all good until a Seagull pooped on my head. So I had to go to the ladies restroom and wash my hair with hand soap and walked out of the restaurant with wet matted hair. Not a fun experience. But I did take a picture of it..just not posting it up on here.

What's everyone's plans for the weekend??

FOTD: April 9th, 2011


I wanted to do a really purple/pink look today for going out! I absolutely love pinks! Can't you tell? Hehe.


 
To achieve this look I used the following products:
Urban Decay Primer Potion
Maybelline FitMe Foundation in Ivory
Urban Decay Sustainable Eye shadow palette
Maybelline Volume Express Mascara
Maybelline Concealer in Ivory
Coastal Scents Prism Palette
No name makeup palette
and my makeup brushes 
:]





To start my face of the day, I began with the foundation and blended that all over my face and jaw line so I didn't have marks were you can see it wasn't blended. I think that's one of my biggest pet peeves. Seeing people not blend their foundation good enough.

 Next I took the concealer and applied that under my eyes due to dark circles and lack of sleep.






 To start with the eyeshadow: I used my urban decay primer potion all over my lids. The first color I started with was the lavender color at the bottom. I used that color all over my lid and crease.






The second color I used was the purple color above it and I put that over half of my lid.


Then I chose the dark purple color "Flash" for my crease and outer v. I personally love this color and it's very pigmented compared to my coastal scents palette.



Next step: I chose this really pretty pink blush to apply to my cheeks. Since it's so pigmented I have to be careful and not OVER apply. I don't want to look like a clown.

Sorry for the dirty lipstick next to it. lol. I don't know what's up with that one and the one in the picture below has a strand of brush hair in it. LOL.



To finish this look I used a really pretty medium purple lipstick that really looked pink when I took pictures. I actually like wearing bright lipsticks now. It's crazy. I've never really been a lipstick person but I love it now!

Hopefully sometime soon I can purchase the Candy Yum Yum lipstick from Mac. I'm in L-O-V-E


 On to the pictures :]





What do you ladies think about this look?
