Mini Walmart Makeup Haul

So I'm kinda swerving from the schedule for a bit, but from the survey results I think you all are okay with that;)

Anyway, I did a little shopping and wanted to do a quick mini-haul to show you what I got! Of course there will be full reviews on all the stuff after I've used it enough!

This is all from Walmart... I went for some groceries and just got sidetracked into the makeup section...

In my defense, I really was in need of new mascara;)

Maybelline Great Lash Lots of Lashes in Blackest Black

But along with that, I also got:

150 Classic Ivory

Maybelline Dream Nude Airfoam foundation. I know there have been some mixed reviews over this. I'd seen in first in an ad in a magazine and thought the concept was pretty cool. After reading Kelly's post on it, I knew I wanted to try it! I'll save all the details for my full review, but let's just say, day two of use and I'm pretty pleased:)

05 Fresh Pink

Next was another new Maybelline product: the bouncy blush! Everyone said it was actually kinda bouncy! I made the mistake of pressing on it thinking it would spring back up (nope, just left a dent hahaha). First impressions, it's very soft and light.

717A Bronze Gold

This was the most random purchase. I'd been thinking about getting e.l.f.'s highlighter/bronzer duo, but I saw NYC Sun 2 Sun Bronzing Powder and figured I'd pick it up yet. I have not even opened it yet! So no first impressions yet:)

Last but not least, I picked up some more eyebrow waxing strips! I'm not sure if this is the same brand I usually use just in new packaging, but I'm hoping they work just as well! An easy/fast/cheap way to get great shaped eyebrows at home!

So that's it for now! Like I said, full reviews to come soon! How 'bout you? Any shopping lately? Find any fab new products? You must share!:)

New Konad Polish Stamping

As I mentioned yesterday, I was suuuuper duper excited to find Konad Special Nail Polish at a kiosk at the Prime Outlets in Orlando!! [insert "Hallelujah Chorus" here lol] Prior to finding this little gem, I had been getting all my stamping stuff online. This is fabulous though 'cause I'm able to see the colors to pick out which ones I want, there's no shipping, and I get them right away (yay for instant gratification!)

I picked up three bottles each for $8 plus tax:

I was soooo excited to try them, I didn't even repaint my nails (same paint since Friday. Revlon Top Speed 210 Jelly. Pretty color, chips easily.), just grabbed Shany plate SH13 and stamped them all.

They look amazing!!! I still have some trouble getting the design lined up just right on my nail, but overall I am extremely happy with the results.

If you haven't tried stamping yet, I totally recommend it! You can read some of my old stamping posts which talk about the different brands (Konad, Bundle Monster, Shany etc.) of stamping plates and the polish to use (so far, I really do thinkit's best to buy the Konad brand name stuff). It's easier than free handing (I think) and looks like it was professional done! Plus it's pretty fast and doesn't make a huge mess!
