Sephora/MAC Haul

Hello again! I finally had time to put up my haul! Yay! :) I bought all of this about a week ago I think when Sephora had the Beauty Insiders sale. So here is what I got:

1.) MAC's Paint Pot in Painterly. In the second picture: It is the one in the 3rd row, second last. I like to use this as a base sort of. It is a light creamy nude beige-ish color. US $16.50

2.) MAC's Eyebrow Pencil in Spiked. It is a rich brunette brown color. Defines my eyebrows very well. I couldn't find a picture but if you click on the link above it will show you the eyebrow penicil in that shade. US $14.50

3.) MAC's Dazzleglass from the Double Dazzle Collection in Baby Sparks. It is a pale pink with violet pearl. Not much color but the Dazzleglasses are so sparkly though and you all know I love anything that involves glitter. US $18.00


4.) MAC's Mineralize Skinfinish from the Sugarsweet Collection in Refined. It is a tan/peach/coral melange. Perfect bronzer and it gives your face a nice glow. I couldn't find an exact picture so just click on the link above. You MUST MUST MUST get this! This is the PERFECT highlighter ever and it compliments my skin tone! Probably one of my favorite products ever! US $27.00

5.) MAC's Eye Shadow in Moon's Reflection. It is a blue with white pearl (Veluxe Pearl). Very nice color. US $14.50


6.) MAC's Eye Shadow in Naked Lunch. This is a back up because I love it so much! It is a minimal pink with shimmer (frost). US $14.50



7.) MAC's Lip Conditioner SPF 15 from the Hello Kitty Collection in Pink Fish. This is also a backup and I love it! Right now this is my substitute for the Tendertones! Argh, I'm waiting for the Tendertones to be repromoted and buy them all! :) It is a soft neutral pink. Isn't the packaging SO cute? US $14.50


8.) Sephora Brand Microfiber Headband Description on website: "The Sephora Headband is made of Aquitex, a super absorbent material woven from ultra-fine microfibers that wick moisture away from skin more thoroughly than other fabrics. This adjustable headband gently holds hair in place while cleansing the skin or applying makeup."US $11.00


9.) Urban Decay Primer Potion in Sin. My lids are super oily so this is perfect! US $17.00 Site description:
"What it is:
A best-selling eyeshadow primer potion in a shimmering champagne color.
What it does:
Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion - Sin combines incredible staying power with a shimmering champagne hue that complements almost any eyeshadow. This two-in-one beauty miracle can be worn alone to give eyes just a hint of tint for when you're in a hurry or in need of that "no makeup" look.
What else you need to know:
It also makes a great highlighter: apply from lash line to crease and then apply your shadow on the lid only."
QUICK TIP: If you have the Primer Potion with the original tip then once you can't get any more product out take a knife and cut it in half. You will be surprised at how much of the product is left in there. Take a smaller knife and scoop all of it out and store it in a MAC empty pigment container or any other container you have lying around. Now if you have the new (and improved!) Primer Potion with the slanted tip then you don't have to do all of that. Hope this helped you!


Thats all I have (for now!)

P.S. Don't forget to look at the post underneath this! Hint: Giveaway coming soon!

Gilt: My New Favorite Website! Plus haul!

You all know that I love to splurge on stuff and save at the same time. Now, that is completely easy to do. I found this out from Temptalia. As the title says my new favorite website to splurge on is Gilt it is similar to Hautelook and ideeli (I mentioned them in previous posts.) but they have better stuff and another thing I love- the "waiting list"! I hate waiting and I am definitely impatient but the thing I love about their "waiting list" is that if something I want is sold out I can enter in the waiting list and I still might be able to buy it. So head on over to Gilt and start shopping! The Marc Jacobs sale is ending at midnight so go buy something now! :)
*By the way the link above is an invite-link so I could tell you guys too. Gilt is an invite-only website so if you don't already have an account then that link up there is perfect.

xoxo,
Jessica BUT WAIT THERES MORE! :) SCROLL DOWN!

P.S. The long awaited haul post will be up later today! I promise :)

P.P.S. The pictures above are the purses that I bought. Which one do you like the best? Hint: The purse that gets the most "likes" will be given away in a contest coming up when I reach 20 or 30 followers on my blog!Just comment in the commenting box!

GHD Hair Straightener Review

Hey everyone! I know I haven't posted anything for a long time and I'm sorry. My life is really hectic right now and I'm trying to work everything out. I promised you guys on Twitter that I would post something up and here it is. This is a review for the GHD hair straightener. I had one a couple of months ago and I let my mom borrow it and she loved it so much that I gave it to her. I never really got around buying another one until a couple of days ago. I was watching one of TiffanyD's videos on YouTube and I found out that if you buy one on Beauty Choice and you enter the PROMO CODE "TIFFANYDGHD" at checkout you will receive a FREE HAI SST Ionic Tourmaline Hair Dryer added to your cart automatically. This is an obvious value because the hair dryer is $98.95. This hair straightener is a little pricey ($240.00) but it is definitely worth it. I like this better then the CHI hair straightener. It beeps when you turn it on and when it is ready. This is very useful when you are on the go or in a rush because it heats up very quickly. Not only does it straighten hair better than the CHI it doesn't snag my hair either. I put the link to TiffanyD's video and the link to buy the GHD on Beauty Choice above.

I found this out from the lovely Glamazon! :)

MAC Sugarsweet Goodies!

Hey everyone!! I just wanted to show you guys what I got from the MAC Sugarsweet collection. I've had the picture above as my image for the longest time ever and I was waiting for it to come out. I was so excited that I was practically counting the days until it came out. The MAC store nearest to me had the collection a day before it actually came out. You guys should have seen me, the minute I got in the store I was like a little kid in a candy store hehe. Here is what I got:

1.) MAC lipstick in Lollipop Loving, $14.00. This came out with the Heatherette Collection and was repromoted. The color is sort of a pink-ish coral and it is very sheer.

2.) MAC Tricolor lipglass in Tasty, $17.50. I love this product so much but the only thing I didn't like was how when you pull the wand out the stopper practically wiped the whole thing off so I had to dip it in 3-4 times until I finally got the amount I wanted on my lips. But the cool thing was how the colors didn't mix in the tube no matter what I did. All of the tricolor glosses are sort of clear with a hint of color. The packaging is adorable!

4.) MAC Nail Laquer in Peppermint Patti, $11.00. This came out the same time that the Hello Kitty Collection came out. Wintergreens/limes and grays are very in this year so I went to go get this nail polish. This is a minty sort of color and is soo cute.

Here is a picture of the whole collection:

If you bought anything from this collection post a comment in the comment box and tell me what you think about it.

My New Juicy Couture Watch Has Finally Arrived!

Everybody who knows me knows that I heart Juicy Couture. Juicy Couture is one of my most favorite brands ever. A couple of weeks ago I had a poll and pretty much everyone wanted me to get this one. Just a few minutes ago my watch came from my good friend FedEx. One thing I'd like to point out, Juicy Couture packaging is "a-door-a-ball"! The first thing I thought when I saw the watch was I have to make a blog about this! Okay maybe that wasn't the first thing I thought but close enough haha. I also have a sort of matching wallet that is really cuh-yoot too. I'll try to post up some pictures of it. I just got a new camera and I'm still setting it up etc. and I don't have any time right now because my girlfriends and I are getting ready for a party. Yay! They are demanding me to do their makeup :)

Put up pics as soon as I can and I'll add more detail to this post
For now I'll keep you wondering which watch I got. (No one saw the results but me.)

Sorry I totally forgot :(

Hey everyone! There was a huge Stila sale on beauty crunch a few days ago (Stila by the way is one of my most favorite brands) and I'm so sorry I forgot to notify you guys and make a blog about it. Most of you probably already heard about it so me forgetting probably didn't affect you at all :) I online-shopped until I dropped and I ended up with a huge Stila haul, so I'll probably be posting a blog of what I got and my product reviews. I'll promise to notify you guys next time! :)
