HITS & MISSES: Misses

Here are some products that disappointed me in the past month!

Rimmel Extra Wow Lash Mascara 

I should've known better than to expect more out of a $5 drugstore mascara. Although, I've tried some inexpensive mascaras that are quite good. This Rimmel one isn't one of them. It did absolutely nothing for my lashes, and for something that has the word "WOW" in its name I expected a lot. It's not worth it, not even $5.







L'Oreal Magic Perfecting Base


This "primer" does nothing that a primer is supposed to do. The texture is sticky and tacky, and does not feel good on the face at all. It feels like a thick layer of vaseline all over your face. I wore this for a day and it did not make my makeup stay on better. Putting this on is just like applying unnecessary gunk on your face. For $12 a pop, this was a huge waste of money.

What's In My Bag?

I haven't posted in a while! I am on vacation and have not been home for the most part. Anyway, I'm back now.

This is a What's In (makeup) My Bag? post. Basically, I have a makeup bag that I always have with me. It contains just the basic things that I use when I'm on the go, things that I need for just touching up.

1. Makeup bag - Forever 21 

2. Vanilla scented hand lotion - Cake 

3. Vanilla scented hand sanitizer - Bath and Body Works

4. Kabuki brush - Too Faced

5. Lip Balm - Maybelline Baby Lips in Quench

6. Studio Fix concealer - MAC

7. Blush - Bobbi Brown in Apricot

8. Translucent matte powder - Laura Mercier

9. Liquid Eyeliner - Maybelline by Eye Studio

10. Mascara - Covergirl Lash Blast Volume

Gimme Gimme

Today I just want to talk about stuff that I've been wanting to try. I'm probably going to be getting them sometime this weekend.

1. Diorshow Mascara - Dior 
This mascara has been getting a lot of buzz lately, and I want to see if it lives up to the hype. I have really thin, almost non-existent eyelashes and if this mascara works for me, then it'll be amazing for everyone else.

2. Prisma Chrome Eyeshadow - Sephora Limited EditionThese babies look promising. I swatched a few of them at Sephora last week and I liked the pigmentation and texture. They also go on very nicely. I can't wait to try them! Going to pick up Moon Beam and Black Diamond.

3. Kabuki Brush Set - Sigma 

Sigma has the BEST brushes, apart from Smashbox. Therefore, I cannot wait to get my hands on the Kabuki brush set. I'm going to be ordering them online and I just know that it'll take a million years to freaking get here. I'm very impatient when it comes to waiting for my packages. 

4. All Nighter Long Lasting Make Up Setting Spray - Urban Decay                                 Sometimes, primer just isn't enough. Especially on those long days at work, you'll need something more to make sure your make up doesnt melt right off your face. Urban Decay claims that this spray "keeps makeup in place for up to 16 hours." I'll be the judge of that.

5. Danmari All About Cheeks Palette - NARS  This is what I'm most excited about. This palette has got it all. Blush, Highlighter, and contouring! Screw it. I'm going tomorrow during my break and buying it.

I will post a review as soon as I get the chance to purchase and try these out! Thanks for reading :)
