late b-day haul

this is late for 2 reasons: work/school and my ulta account still isn't working (i can't get into it but i can use the points). i had 2 coupons: my $10 off and a free midnight cowboy eyeshadow.



ud eyeshadow fireball-this is an amazing peach pink shade.

midnight cowboy eyeshadow-this a nice glittery champagne color. it can be useful for almost no makeup days.



ud full spectrum palette-i had to get this. it reminds me of the mi vida loca palette, but this doesn't have any neutral shades for blending and highlight. i'm ok with that because most of the neutral shades in the mi vida loca palette i don't use. i can't wait to use this more.



abh modern renaissance palette-this was cold out for 2 weeks, was in stock, then not in stock, then in stock on the day i finally went. this looks amazing and i understand why everyone wants it. i'm also excited to use this one too.




nyx lip lingerie embellishment-i wanted a more purple color than my corset one.

ud lipstick conspiracy-i wanted this from xsparkages swatch video asap. its not as plain as a matte brown lipstick but it will go great with the modern renaissance palette.

smashbox chill zone lipstick-i always wanted a matte cool gray lipstick and now it exists. i have a metallic gray but i wanted a matte to go with more looks.


ud anti-aging primer-i need more primer and wanted to see if the anti-aging one does anything special.

maybelline microbrow-i love this for my brows and it's the right color for me. i want slightly more filled in brows but not super opaque (natural but looking touched up).

i was considering the too faced peanut/jelly palette but the purples were disappointing. i bought more reddish-browns and darker lipsticks because i am a huge fan of the grudge look. but all of my reddish shadows were mostly satin/metallic and while i do like that, i wanted matte versions. i suits my style better sometimes and its easy to do. it also doesn't require much planning in the morning.

my family bought me makeup among other gifts, i had never heard of this brand but i have used one product.



 i haven't used this yet but i do like some of the colors in it.


 this is the most amazing makeup removing thing. it's like the makeup eraser towel, but it's blue and around the same price. this takes off my mascara, eye makeup and face makeup with just water. and this is a full face of makeup............which blows my mind. mine is currently dirty so i do need to wash it again. but i want to get another one so when this one needs washing.

empties 7

this is huge because life gets away from me. you may need a snack :)

this is very skincare heavy but nothing is in order, so we'll just go for it.



bbw coconut lime verbana spray-i liked the smell, i kept it in my car incase.
ban deodorant and manic panic hot hot pink-this is a good deodorant since it doesn't leave white marks. hot hot pink is my top half of my hair color, the bottom is black. already bought both again

nyx microbrow-i bought blonde but it was too warm, so i'll try taupe next. tarte light camera lashes was a nice mascara, i think i have another one. too faced better than sex was a great mascara, i have the full size. wnw glitter creme face thing-i didn't like this because it was slick but the glitter was pokey. it's also not meant for eyes, so i have no idea how i would use this.

temptations cat treats-my cats love them.

nail clippers-these are gross and need to go.

propolis mask-this was nice to use.

gel masks (i forgot the brands)-these were nice. i used the blue one before bed and the other was nice to use.
maybelline fit me powder and loreal true match powder-i have the fit me again. i like both though. the loreal one is heavier though.

tree hut hawaiian kukui sugar scrub-i liked the scent and it worked.

lava clay mask-i liked this and it didn't smell weird. i would get it again.

fc jelly man soap-this was a gel soap that lasted forever. i liked the scent but it didn't lather enough for me.

tree hut cherry blossom sugar scrub-i liked this one and would get again.

equate coconut milk and jasmine wash-this was nice but it didn't hydrate my skin enough.

sephora pearl eye mask-these are nice before bed to rest me eyes.

rose mask and lime mask-i liked these both. the rose didn't smell too strong and the lime smelled nice.

lace eye patch-these were pretty and did rest my eyes.

avocado and acai berry masks-i liked both of these. i forgot i used an acai berry mask before.

olay gentle clean clothes-these were ok but didn't take off that much makeup. i wouldn't get again.

garnier micellar water-i use this in the morning to clean my face. i have another one.

fc nemo fortune cookie soap-i really liked the scent on this and it did lather just enough. the scent didn't last on my skin though.

caress adore forever wash-i liked the scent of this and these do foam wonderfully. i have the red one now.

strawberry mask-this one was nice to use.

real techniques sponges and ecotools sponge-the real techniques are good and would get again. i'm using the ulta ones now. the ecotools i used for clay masks after they were dry. i have the white one now.

tree hut almond and honey scrub-i really liked this scent and would get again.

wine yeast mask-i liked this one.

tony moly broccoli mask and chamomile mask-i liked both of these. no weird smells.

vo5 kiwi shampoo and suave moroccan conditioner-i liked both of these. i rebought the conditioner.

nivea in shower lotion-this was nice but it didn't keep my skin hydrated. i'll try another one soon.

equate makeup remover wipes-i liked these and it did take off most of my makeup.

tangerine mask and foot mask-i liked both of these.

mask maven sept 2016 my final one :(

this is my final one for a while since i had to cancel it (i am so resubscribing when i can). it's modern maskinista, which are technology advanced masks. i don't know why the masks pics are sideways, the phone's weird.




it also came with a 30 day mask planner, which also had tips on it. i'll save these masks and start in oct.


 wellage injection mask-i saw grav3yardgirl use this and it looked very cool. can't wait to try.

 nohj black intracell mask-this is a bubbling sheet mask, which sounds great to use.

 nohj calming intracell sleeping mask-it's a coffee and lavender mask, which i'm a fan of lavender but not coffee. this should be interesting to try.

 esfolio snail mask-i love snail masks so i'm happy to get another one.

 esfolio pearl mask-i like pearl mask for brightness when my skin gets dull.

 saference f+c rx firming mask-this is good for anti-aging, which is good to start now.

 ladykin acai berry lifting ice cold mask-i don't know if i've tried an acai berry mask before, so this should be interesting.

 annies way HA silk mask-these are good for hydrating my dry skin.

annies way tea tree mask-i have been having some slight breakouts, so this should help with those.

i really like this months bag because it has a lot of different masks and some interesting ones to try. i'm sad this is my last one, but i'm glad it was so awesome. :)
