:: New Maybelline Fall Limited Edition Color Tattoo & Swatches ::


Happy Sunday everyone! Today I have the New LE Maybelline Fall Color Tattoo's to show you. I puchased the nude tones at Walgreens and the jeweled tones at Target. For some reason my Walgreens did not carry the jeweled tone ones, but I got them as a bogo which was buy one get one 50% @$6.99 each! Target had them for $5.99 plus my 5% off using the Target red card.
 

 
The packaging on these have the Limited Edition sticker on them...
 

 
So let's move on to the color!
 

 
100 Barely Beige
 

 
400 Rich Mahogany
 

 
~200 Mossy Green~
 

 
~300 Gold Shimmer~
 

 
~100 Blue on By~
 

 
~400 Test my Teal~
 

 
~200 Ready, Set, Green~
 

 
~300 Fuchsia Fever~
 
Now here are the swatches:
 
 
Left to right: Barely Beige, Gold Shimmer, Mossy Green, Rich Mahogany
 
 
Left to right: Fuchsia Fever, Ready, Set, Green, Test my Teal, Blue on By
 
From my swatches the only color that was quiet difficult to get a good swatch with was Mossy Green. I honestly had to swipe it 2-3 times with out it looking streaky or blotchy. The swatches may look blotchy/ streakybecause I didn't wait for the makeup remover to dry before applying another swatch...=/ but they are not... the more u build the color the more intense it will be. With everything else I had no issue with. I will probably do another blog post on a comparison on other paint pots I do own from MAC and some of the permanent shades Maybelline has. These are LE so If you were thinking about getting them I would look now, these are going by FAST!
Hope this helped you all and Thanks again for stopping by!!!!
Have a great day!!! =)

:: MAC STYLESEEKER Collection & Swatches ::

 
Good Afternoon!!! Today is a pretty exciting day... MAC released the STYLESEEKER Collection and I was able to grab a few things before MAC sells out as usual. Here is the promo photo MAC released for the collection.
 
 
Found this photo on the internet...
 
 
Here are the items I purchased!
 
 
Got three eyeshadow duo's...
 


 
~Marche` Aux Puces~
 


 
~On The Hunt~
 


 
~Culturalized~
The duo shadows are okay... I noticed that the pigmentation on some of them were a bit chalky, but I can work with them.
 

 
~Lipglass~
Left: Eclectic Edge - Right:Ready To Roam
(Sooo pigmented)
 

 
~Mattene Lipstick~
Left: Fashion Nomad - Right: Camden Chic
(LOVE these two)
 
 


 
~Worldy Wealth Blush~
(Frost)
 


 
~Hidden Treasure Blush~
(Velvet)
 
My conclusion is I am really liking this collection. The collection has that boho, gold shimmer, glow with dark berry lips vibe to it.
 Mattene's are my favorite type of finish, they are so pigmented and to my surprise the lipglasses were too! Perfect for the fall, holiday, and winter season!!!
Go check it out!
 
Hope my swatches will help you!!!
Thanks so much & see you in my next post...
 
Have a great day!!!

:: Bath & Body Works Fall/ Halloween Preview ::

 
 
Happy Wednesday everybody! Today I have a few items from the fall / halloween collection from B&BW. At the time I had went they actually didn't have everything out from the collection so I only got what they had available. I LOVE the holiday collections  B&BW come's out with every year they are just the cutest!!!
 

 
As usual they always have sales there...
 I got the hand soaps for 5 for $15, wallflowers & refills 6 for $20, halloween hand sanitizers 5 for $5, mrs. frankentsein santizer holder $5, bat hand soap topper $2.50, and I got a free travel size lotion of my choice!
 

 
 
These were the fall items I picked up. Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin is my all time favorite fall scent! Autum Day has to be my new favorite scent this year as well as as Pumpkin Cupcake... Mmmm! =)
 


 
I did not get too many of the halloween items because they didn't have everything out just yet. The Mrs. Frankenstein holder was  my daughter's favorite. The topper for the hand soaps are just the cutest. I  Love seeing what they come out with every year, it's always different. So I miight just go back to see If they had put everything out. As always they invite you back with another coupon to return which I don't mind... =)
Thanks for stopping by see, you guys in my next post!
