Review: Maybelline Fit me! Foundation and Concealer


A couple weeks ago I purchased Maybelline's Fit me! Foundation and Concealer. I was looking for a new foundation and concealer since I ran out. I saw the commercials for it on tv and it looked like it would suit me. I never really used liquid foundation before, just clinque's tinted moisturizer and aqua makeup the comes in a tube. I really can't remember but I think I may have used liquid foundation as my first foundation. other than that I was using either cream foundation or powder. I don't really have any problems with my skin so i don't need that much coverage either. The Fit me! foundation is very reasonably priced only around $7. I am the shade 220. The foundation comes in a pour bottle, you have to be careful because it pours out a little too fast and you only need very little of the product. I use my hands to apply it I find it works best for me and I don't have foundation brushes and I really don't think I need to buy any. The thing I don't like about this foundation is that it is greasy, idk if all liquid foundations are but I don't like the greasiness. It is very lightweight, it doesn't feel like you have anything on. It is not heavy coverage. I also purchased the Fit me! concealer. The concealer is nothing special works just like every other one. It comes in a tube like a lip gloss and has a doe foot applicator. It blends well and works great for me. I also want to try out the powder as well.

Review: Redken Extreme Anti-Snap



I have been using this product for six months or so. I got it from fantastic sams hair salon, it was recommended but you can also find it at various other places. I use a lot of heat frequently, I flat iron my hair a lot so it tends to be damaged and proned to getting split ends. This product is a leave-in treatment, applied to your ends to make your hair stronger. It does not completely prevent split ends, I have noticed a great difference in my split ends using this product. They are not as bad as they are without it. I recommend this product to any one who flat irons their hair regularly. I apply it to my hair damp after showering, concentrating on the ends.

OMG!: MAC


So I was shopping in Macy's a couple weeks ago, just browsing around, I took the escalator to the second floor I look to the right and I couldn't believe my eyes, there was a MAC Counter! My jaw dropped. Since when did my mall have a MAC? Why didn't I know about this? I was so shocked and surprised. I thought my mall would never get a MAC. I found out the counter just opened a couple days earlier. Before I had little availably to a MAC, since before the nearest one was about an hour away. I'm so excited now I can purchase more MAC products. Seeing the new counter I had to purchase something. They still had a lot of stuff from the venomous villains. I really wanted something from that collection so I bought the Maleficent Lipglass in Revenge is Sweet. I love the color. I thought it would be very bold but its not at all, its the perfect shade.

Fashion Haul: Wet Seal, Walmart, & Hollister


Here are some items I bought over the past few months, I haven't really been able to shop that much recently which is really sad. I think fashion right now and was is in store is at its prime.I love everything!

What I got from Wetseal...


Lace Long Sleeve Tee in Dark Grey $10.50
I got this tee in dark grey. It is not the exact same one I got. The one I bought only had lace on the sleeves and had a different lace pattern.


Studded Shoulder Wrap in Taupe $21.50
I got this in the Taupe color.! I love the wraps from wetseal!

What i got from Walmart...

Miley Cyrus & Max Azria - Juniors Long-Sleeve Button-Down Denim Shirt $5.00
Love this! I got in on sale for 5 bucks. A denim shirt is a staple piece, you can wear it so many ways.

Miley Cyrus & Max Azria - Juniors Destroyed Denim Shorts $5.00
I got this on clearance too. Its not the same exact pair I got. Mine is a lighter wash, folded at the bottom, and studded on the sides.

Fashion Haul: Wet Seal & Hollister


A few items I have added to my closet recently...

I got a $25 gift card to wetseal for my birthday so id decided to use it on an awesome deal wetseal is having currently which is 5 basic items (plain tees, tanks, leggings, shorts, etc.) for $20 so I could get more for my money instead of spending it on one item.


V Neck Tee in Fuchsia $4.00
Recently wetseal redesigned their V necks with a wider collar and a slightly different fit and material. I like them the material is more breathable and not as tight.


V Neck Tee in Deep Olive $4.00
I also got another V Neck in Yellow


Basic Amber Cami in Wine $4.00
This is not the exact one I got because its not online its similar though but it has a small lace trim on the collar.


Rib Tank Top in Black $4.00
I got this in black.


Chiffon Stud Tank Top in Olive $10.00
This is not the exact one I got its similar made out of chiffon in a green color but has different beading.

I also bought an outfit for work I'm going to be working at Hollister.


Surfriders Beach Plaid Button Down in Pink Check $29.89


Laguna Skinny Jeans in Navy $49.50
