giant enormous collective haul

see also, I have a beauty product buying problem. and I'm okay with that.
let's start with the crappy cell phone pictures [sorry, big camera battery died so these kind of suck] also, keep in mind that this is literally from the past 4 months or so and most of this stuff was on sale/clearance/under 10$

from left to right: alllll from target
some elf glosses that came in a set at Target but I lost one [these suck anyway]
new york color extreme lip glider in chinatown cherry
a bonnebell Dr. Pepper set with a tinted gloss, lip smacker, and clear gloss
Simply shine lip shimmer in ruby red
Simply lip balm in acai berry with spf15
love & toast lip butter in coconut lime[I bought this for the brand name. yep]
neutrogena naturals lip balm [I had an allergic reaction to this..boo]

left to right: from target, blog sale, walmart, and ebay
wetnwild megalast eyeliner in dark brown[sucks. so hard and pulls at my eye. no me gusta!]
MAC MSF in Redhead. [I bought this at a blog sale for 40$, don't judge. it was limited edition I think in 07 or 08 and I have been needing it since then. SO PRETTY]
jane no show concealer in no2/light
elf clear mascara/eyebrow gel duo
maybelline the falsies mascara in black drama
jane eye zing in hip bone
jane blushing cheeks in blushing orchid shimmer [when my walmart redid everything and updated they stopped carrying jane so I got all this stuff on super clearance!]
nyx jumbo pencil in blackbean
nyx jumbo pencil in milk

left to right: from target and walmart
Sally Hansen Insta-dri in blue away
Sally Hansen quick dry top coat [I thought this would be comparable to Seche or Out The Door because I read somewhere that someone used this instead, but it isn't. it's useless. not quick drying at all]
Sally Hansen HD polish in no9-byte [loooove this on my toes]
clean & clear dual action moisturizer

onwards to the better pictures [oh, btw you can click any of them and they should open in a new window as bigger pictures!]
I already hauled these but I'll show em anyway: both from target

elf brush shampoo and eye brushes

elf 32 eyeshadow palette in the bright eyes version


newer stuff! from target, walmart, and walgreens

Sally Hansen Salon Effects nail stickers
previously mentioned sucky Sally Hansen topcoat and wetnwild eyeliner
Hard Candy lash ink- 4 day stain mascara [I have a rant to do about this soon]
wetnwild 8 pan palette in petal pusher
elf blush brush and elf powder brush

this I just bought today! [target and walmart]
elf cream liner in coffee with mini brush
sinful colors nail polish in pinky glitter [this is a pink based with holo glitter. surprized and can't wait to try it. it's a little thick though]
Sally Hansen Insta-dri in presto pink [I only bought this because I though the sinful colors would need a base color]
Hard Candy glossaholic gloss in tipsy[pink] and fabulous[red] [these are HUGE glosses. think MAC wonder woman collection. they are pretty decently pigmented but my lips are naturally very pigmented so these only give a nice tint to mine. also, smell and taste amazing]
Hard Candy just face it 1 step foundation in fair[can't wait to try this]

blurry picture to show the glitter. the gloss has FLAKIES in it you guys. holo flakies at that and it looks so. freaking. cool!

OKAY! that's it:) I know it's a lot but I cleaned out my collection over the past few months so I figured I would add to it! if you want a review on anything, have a question about anything, or anything else, leave a comment or send an email:)

elf haul!

my target put out a seasonal elf display much like they did at christmas time, with a bunch of limited edition stuff. then i went to super target in pensacola and they had an actual elf area with regular line and studio line products.

i've bought a few elf products before, the 1$ eyeshadow brush [my favorite brush ever], the all over color sticks, and the giant makeup box thing i got for christmas a year ago.

so this week, i bought their brush cleaner for 3$, 4 studio line eye brushes each for 3$, a 32 eye shadow palette for 4.99$, and not pictured i bought a 5 pack of glosses for 4.99$ as well. both the glosses and palette are limited edition. all available at most target locations currently. you can also find elf on it's website, occasionally at dollar tree, if you're in the south i've found it at kmart and dollar general as well.the limited edition stuff is target exclusive i do believe.

here are so pictures!

excuse the mess. and yes, that is my stove. the kitchen is the only place with decent lighting after dark.

the outside of the palette

inside look

full on view. it has a mirror and sponge applicator. this picture also captures the colors most accurately. there's a more neutral version of this palette as well.

the brushes. these were really soft taklon. i was surprised.

after one use of the cleaner. i washed the brushes above.

if you click any of the pictures, they get bigger:)

if you want a review on anything, just let me know. 

until next time,
