Sonia Kashuk Eyeshadow Palettes

Have you ever just stepped into Target and walked out with only what you needed?  If you have I applaud you!  I just can't help myself when I am there.  I must walk up and down every single isle and leave with $100 worth of stuff I probably don't need.  That is how I have amassed these babies.  They weren't on my list, but they came home with me anyway.

May I say I love Sonia Kashuk.  I don't have all of her products, but what I do have I LOVE!  I especially love her eyeshadow palettes.  It all started with the Eye on Neutral palette, that has all matte shades.  How beauty lovers, love a good matte shade.  She listened to us when Urban Decay wouldn't. Then came the Eye on Neutral Shimmers.  Again, us makeup lovers where head over heels in love.  Each of these palettes have 12 shadows for the low cost of $20.  And to be honest I would pay even a bit more for these.  They are so creamy and blendable.  There are warm shades and cool shades to accommodate everyone.  And then there are her quads.  Mine is in Textured Cocoa.  Its just amazball for blue eyes!  Again just as creamy and blendable as the others.  So I suggest that next time you are in Target you pass by the makeup section and check these out.

Fall Gloss + Some Fun Bits

I have been a slacker lately.  And I am trying very hard not to be!  I truly am.  So you might just get a few posts back to back to make up for that!

So since it is still technically fall I thought I would share some of my favorite fall glosses with you!  I am more of a gloss girl, but you would never think that when you look at my lipstick collection.  I love darker lips.  I have pretty pigmented lips and pretty pale skin, so a dark lip suits me well.  I also love using a dark lip liner and a little gloss over top.  Jordana makes my favorite liners.  I believe I have every color.  I also love there eye liners.  I just gave myself an idea for an upcoming post!

Now some tidbits... I have recently decided my room needs an update so I am saving up to get some new furniture and some new decor!  I recently made a few trips to Target and got some lovely pieces.  And may I say they have the cutest bar cart ever!! Its only about $60!  I didn't pick it up yet, but who knows I might go back and get it this week.

Recent Target finds

I went to a Sephora VIB Rouge event about a month or so ago and I had a great time!  I brought my bff Joanna with me.  We have known each other for about 20 years now, and that just blows my mind.  She seriously knows pretty much everything about me.  And I don't know what I'd do without her!

I love Aubrey Kinch's blog and her friday freebies!  She has some of the best designs!  And one day down the line a bit I am going to enlist her services to spruce this blog up!

Um this stuff is amazballs!! And I mean it!  I have tried this flavor and I picked up the sea salt caramel the other day and it was just as delish !! I would say run to your nearest supermarket or Walmart/Taregt and get yours now.  It will change your life.  Plus its gluten free and made from all natural products. 

So what is your favorite ice cream?? I'd love to hear!!

Nude Nails {Marc Jacobs & YSL}

I have a thing for nudes.  I am always trying to find the perfect one, so I can achieve the mannequin hand effect.  I still haven't found the one, but I did come close with these two.  These are both my first Marc Jacobs and YSL nail polishes and I have to say I'm very pleased.  I will definitely be picking more up of both.  They are both nice and creamy and not streaky.  Opaque in one coat, but definitely need two coats to look perfect.  The Marc Jacobs has a smaller brush unlike the YSL.  The YSL brush is larger like OPI, and covers more nail space.  Some don't like this, but I happen to not mind at all.


Now on to some exciting new!! Urban Decay will be releasing a new Naked palette just in time for Christmas.

This palette has more rosy hues and caters more towards people who like warm toned eyeshadows.  I personally think it looks great, but I will try to hold off getting this for a little.  I do have Naked 1 and 2, and hardly use them.  But, I can't help but go with the crowd, so who knows maybe I will have it by Christmas.

What are your thoughts on the Naked 3?  Is it a yay or nay?

Also a VIB sale post will be coming soon.  I did a little damage.  Not as much as I thought, but I still got a good amount of stuff.

Crease Colors ft. Bobbi Brown Cement !

So I was recently scrolling through a beauty blog, unfortunately I can't remember whose.  But, I came across this Bobbi Brown eyeshadow in Cement and had to have it.  So, I went on the Bobbi Brown website and snatched one up.  It is very similar to a few other colors I have, but can one every have enough crease colors?  I love a good crease color, because for me they double as an eyebrow powder.  I am such a freak about crease colors.  When I am out and about and see an eye look gone wrong I feel the need to whip out a crease color and a MAC 217 and fix it.  But, that is just my weird OCD.  Anywho, this color is amazing.  So smooth and glides on the eyelids so well.  It really helps blend any eye look out and makes a great transition.  I really love Bobbi Brown eyeshadows.  I have tried a good amount of Bobbi Brown products and I have never been disappointed.
