Milani: Everyday Eyes Eyeshadow Collection Review

Well Hello My loves!

It’s been a hot minute since I’ve had a new post up on here! Since my last post which you can check out here I went on a vacation to Disney World and while I was there Nick proposed! Obviously, I said yes! Don’t worry I will have a post up at some point about the entire trip and the proposal!

Today I want to talk about the Milani: Everyday Eyes eyeshadow collection! There are six palettes in the collection but I am only talking about the first five today. The 6^th palette was a very colorful palette that would not be suitable for everyday wear.

By now I’m sure you have seen these in stores and have asked yourself “Do I need this?”. Well I’m here to answer that question.

Covergirl: Trunaked Palettes in Nudes, Goldens and Roses Review

Hello Lovelies!! Welcome back!

The packaging claims that the shades are like a leading $50.00 eye shadow palette (any guesses which one? Cough cough Urban Decay Naked Palettes Cough)

So if your curious about these palettes then keep reading!

March Box Showdown

Hey all!

I know I’m late..... again with the Box Showdown but I wanted to get this one up since it was my first month receiving the Sephora: Play Box!

Just a reminder of the standings IPSY:2 BIRCHBOX:1 SEPHORA PLAY: 0 & BOXYCHARM:2

Let’s jump right in!!

Morphe Brush Club March Unboxing & Update

Hey all!!!

Holy Moly it has been forever since I have had a new post!! Life has been extra crazy the past month! School has been extra busy and pretty much every day I have had some type of obligation! This semester will be over at the end of April so once that is over I will be able to get back to a normal posting schedule so until then please bear with me!!

If you didn’t know Nick and I are heading to Disney in May with friends and we had our final planning visit this past month to pick out our fast passes! Let me know in the comments below if you would like a planning Disney trip post! I am for sure going to do a post Disney trip post.

Also this past month I bought a new camera which I am still trying to figure out so if my pictures are a little off that’s why. Technology and I are not the best of friends.

So let’s jump into what this post is all about; my March Morphe Brush Club Subscription box with LiveGlam!!

Morphe Brush Club February Unboxing

Hey All!

Today I have an Unboxing of a the Morphe Brush Club Subscription box with LiveGlam. This box is $19.99 and they advertise that you will get $30+ in Morphe Brushes.

Another benefit of the club is that as a subscriber you get exclusive discounts on Morphe products and FIRST ACCESS to new Morphe Releases (can you say yes please to the all matte and shimmer 35O palettes when they come out!)

I am a huge fan of Morphe! Their brushes are bomb and affordable and their eyeshadow palettes are amazing too. If you don’t have the 35O palette what are you doing with your life… but really… what are you doing1? It is the #1 palette I recommend to people.

So if you follow my blog you know that I do a monthly box showdown and I have decided to not include this particular box in that showdown for one reason. Every month it will consist of brushes which is really hard to compare to boxes of skin care and makeup so I felt that it would be best to give it its’ own post. (if you disagree and would like to see it in the showdown then please let me know if the comments below!)

Let’s get in to this bad boy!

February Box Showdown

Hey all!!!

It’s that time again!!! It’s my BOX SHOOOOOOOWDOOOOWWNNNN! Last month I did individual unboxing posts as voted by you lovelies on Twitter. So when this month rolled around I let you guys decide again and it was pretty much unanimous that you wanted to see a box showdown!

So here it is! Just as a reminder I will “Unbox” my subscription boxes and at the end pick a winner of which one I am looking forward to the most!

The standing right now is IPSY = 2 BOXYCHARM= 2 BIRCHBOX= 0

Let’s get unboxing!

Maybelline: Master Contour & L'Oreal Infallible Pro- Contour Palette Review

Hello my lovelies!!

Today I have a review on two contour palettes from the drugstore! Anyone else notice that the drugstore is really picking up their game lately! Over the past couple weeks my makeup routine has consisted mostly of drugstore products!

I’m going to talk about the Maybelline: Master Contour Kit and L’oreal: Infallible Pro-Contour Palette

Let’s do this!!!

New At the Drugstore: Foundations

Hello my lovelies!

Welcome back! Today I have some drugstore foundations that I have be LOVING; Revlon: Colorstay 2-in-1 Compact, L’Oreal: True Match Lumi Chushion, and Maybelline: Dream Velvet.

By now I’m sure you have heard about them or at least seen them in the stores. For the past couple of weeks these three foundations are the only ones I have been wearing!

All three are going to be best for combination skin, two are going to work for oily skin types and one will work with dry (also depending on what floats your boat)

So let’s break these beauties down!

LOC: Tati Collaboration Review

Hey All Welcome Back!!

So today I want to talk about the Birchbox exclusive LOC (Love of Color) line. LOC collaborated with Tati from glamlifeguru to create 5 shadow sticks and 3 lippie sticks. If you don’t follow her on YouTube you should, she is amazing just like these shadows and lippies!

I got my first taste of the line in my November Box Showdown which I chose the editor box that Tati curated. I bought the rest of the line and it lived up to all my expectations. Every single time I wear one of the shadows I am complimented on it.

There are several different bundles you can order from the Birchbox site. Obviously, I ordered the bundle that included all of the shadows and lippies. It also came with a Sharpener. If you just want one color they have that option as well!

So let’s get swatching!

Boxycharm: January "Eyes on 2016" Unboxing

Hey all welcome back!

So I know what you are thinking “Erica it’s February why are you posting about your January Boxycharm?” Well when Boxycharm tweets you and says they want to see your January unboxing it is REALLY hard to say no.

January’s theme was “Eyes on 2016” more like “Eyes on Boxycharm”. I have to say this was one of their best boxes that I have gotten. Four of my five favorite makeup products were in this box; Mascara ✓ Eye Shadow ✓ Makeup Brushes ✓ Eye liner ✓ (lipstick is the 5^th one in case you were wondering)

Alright, let’s do this!

Birchbox: Unboxing

Hey all!

Sorry it took forever getting this unboxing up! I have been crazy busy with the start of this semester. On my twitter I mentioned that I am going back full time this semester versus being part time. I am also working full time so my schedule is pretty jammed pack!

So this month’s box the top says “2016: The year of ____” and it came with several different stickers.  Fearlessness is the word that stuck out the most to me! So that will be my goal this year in my blog and life to strive to be fearless!

Let’s get in to the box!

IPSY GLAMBAG: Unboxing

Hey All!!!! 

              

So earlier this month I tweeted a poll about if you guys would rather see the box showdown for January or individual unboxing’s. Well if you haven’t figured it out by the title of this post individual posts won out!

My first subscription to show up this month was my IPSY Glambag!

I did a second poll a week ago about what unboxing you guys were looking forward to the most and there was NO LOVE for IPSY. ZERO. ZIP. ZILCH.

BUT! I think you guys will be pretty impressed with what IPSY sent out this month!

So lets’ jump in!

Drugstore Makeup Haul: Eyes & Lips

Hello there my lovlies!!!

So about a month and half ago I posted a Drugstore Makeup Haul of face products and had mentioned that I would have another haul of the rest of the products.

HERE IT IS!!!!! 

I'm going to be 100% honest and say I really only loved one product and there was another I could live with but it wouldn't be an OMG I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE type of thing.

So let's do this!

December Favorites

Hey all!

Can you believe January is already here! December FLEW by!  

I feel like I had so many favorites this past month but I think I narrowed it down to the ones I reached for almost every day.

Let’s get started!

December Box Showdown

Hey All! 

So a couple weeks ago I did a poll on Twitter to see if you guys would rather see individual "unboxings" or a box showdown for December. If you haven't figured out the winner yet, it was the showdown! YAY!

I love doing these showdowns for you guys but I know they can be a bit long. On Jan 4th (2016 of course) I will do another poll for what you guys want to see for January! So if you aren't following me on twitter yet you should do that :) 

If you follow me on twitter then you already know that my BoxyCharm took the scenic route before I finally got it (I normally get it around the 14th of each month, this month I got it on the 23rd) so that is why this post is going up a little later than normal.

Incase you are wondering how a showdown works you can check out October and November right here <-- well over there, you know where they are underlined.

As of right now the score stands IPSY=1, BOXYCHARM=1, & BIRCHBOX=0

Lets get started with last months winner!
