So for the last couple weeks I have been in shopping mode, as I usually am. But when it came to beauty shopping it hasn't been for myself. I've been shipping for a friend of mine. An Irish beauty who I've so far sent one package of american goodies to, and shes done the same for me. So while its been hard not buying loads of pretty new makeup for myself I do know in the end I get a present from El, and that will more then make up for my good behavior. However after roughly two months of buying no more then lip balm, I did sneak a few bits into a gift order from Drugstore.com for myself. The total was around $15 bucks and i'm sooo in love with what i got.

{All products will be linked if you want to check anything out}

The Products-
Rimmel 60 Seconds Nail, Piccasilly Line
Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Gloss Crayon, Vanilla, Nudist
Wet n Wild Fergie Creme Lipstick, Bebot Love
Wet n Wild Shimmer Palette, Hollywood Boulevard

Now I've been able to play with 3 of the 4 pieces and i'm soooo in love! Me and my daughter have a Piccasilly Line Pedi and in the last couple days I have worn both lip colors to death! Im thinking both deserve their own posts but I need to play with them a little more before i can shift them into holy grail status, but oh its so so close!

Also my self imposed buying ban will soon be lifted! So is there anything new at the drug store I simply need to try for myself? I know none of these are new products, all of the new and Limited Edition stuff I picked up is a secret... and wont be seen till El gets her box!

Walmart Beauty Haul!

Hey there turtle doves! So this last weekend I got a little shopping in and I thought I would share it with you. This doesnt include what I got online (Spoiler there will be another haul coming soon) But I hit Walmart for some basics for surviving and thought why dont I see if they have a nice brown lip liner.... and of course I came out with so much more then I should have.

I started actually looking for the lip liner I needed, but everything else kinda happened, and im sorry im not sorry.

Now they didnt have the color I wanted but i did snag two wet n' wild liners, both in different berry tones (Willow & Brandy Wine) which are good for the season. Directly behind that display is the Rimmel one so I then decided that I should get another Stay Matte foundation in a lighter color as the summer colors dont work for my ever fading skin just now. And possibly the thing I love most out of this trip is the Rimmel Scandaleyes Kohl Kajal liner. Ive played with it a few times already and i might be obsessed. It might actually be taking the place of my Lord & Berry liner and at $4 you cant beat the price.

My quest for the perfect 90's lip has continued and I picked up two Mauve toned nudes, Maybelline Colorsensational in Rum Riche and Flower Kiss Stick in Tea Rose. Flower is one of the brands I swear I dont hear enough about and this lipstick proves that to me. The colors are both amazing and depending on your skin tone are the perfect nudes.

Then I came across something I have been dying to dry and sadly didnt get in last months Ipsy bag. Sally Hansens new Miracel Gel polish. Which can I say again amazing? I have tried it and so far i have had it on for three days. Now im someone who washes my hands like I have OCD. I have to keep my hands under the water for a certain amount of time, use a certain amount of soap, but so far this hasnt chipped at all. With the strain on my hands with two kids it really can claim to be a miracle.

Lastly were a couple of odds and ends that i saw and grabbed. I needed a new hair oil mist and Organix is really the only brand for it. I usually get the KuiKui oil but as they didnt have it in stock i grabbed the coconut instead. I also got a new sharpener from wet n' wild and I dont know the brand of the adorable eyelash curler. For only $1 though i thought it was worth a try and my lovely mother has once again stolen my other eyelash curlers.

Is there anything i should keep look out for on my next weekly shopping trip? Anything you lovelies would like a better review on?

September Favorites!!!

Hello there turtle doves! September is one of the busiest months of the year and for good reason. With the season changing and summer ending it proves to be busy, people especially kids or those with kids have to get back into the swing of things and it can be a stressful time. Being one of those people with kids its been an adjustment period for me. But though that has prevented me from post my Saturday staples this last month is hasnt prevented me from using and loving things and thats what i am here to share with you lot today. Here is everything, in beauty, entertainment and life that i have been loving this month.

Makeup wise i havent been going crazy with trying new things though i do have alot on the way i cant wait to use! But this has been the most reached for lately and current in my everyday makeup bag.

The Products-

* Rimmel Scandeleyes Retro Glam Mascara
* Little Mix By Collection Full On Mascara
* Baby Lips in Grape
* Caitlyn Tinted Lip Gloss in Basic Instinct
* Lord & Berry Silk Kohl Kajal Liner
* Revlon Colorstay Lipliner in Nude

Beauty aside i have been loving Netflix this month when i cant sleep (I may have binged watched Greys Anatomy super hard) And i caught up on my obsession from the month Outlander! I caught up just before the mid season finale and im so in love. I actually got the books on my Kindle just so i didnt have to wait to see what happened to Jamie and Claire. So im also currently reading Dragonfly In Amber and the feels are strong!

As for the music i have been loving lets be real it was all about one direction this month! And while Fireproof came out first i still dont know all those words. But Steal My Girl i have on a loop and im not the least bit sorry.

What things did you lovelies simply adore this past month? Anything ive been missing out on and simply have to get into?

August favorites!

Another month has come and gone and is it sad to say i am so excited?? August in Jersey means alot more rain, and humidity, and while hurricane season here has been amazing for us (We havent had any) its still not good weather. Im just so keen for fall, i miss UGG weather like you wouldnt believe actually. But im rambling, and here and no we all wanna chat about the things i have been loving this month.

* First thing i have been loving is my pink Betsey Johnson makeup bag. In all honesty, i have 3, plus four of her bags, one laptop case and a really adorable wallet. If i had to pick one designer to wear for the rest of my life it would be the beautiful Betsey Johnson. And this bag speficifcally, all pink and black and beautiful has been in heavy rotation.

* Next has been my Organix Kukui oil. A life saver for my hair, its really the only thing that keeps my ends from looking like straw. And in the summer thats always so much more likely that it has been used double time. The bottle in the picture is my second and you see the dent in it already? Holy grail status ladies and always a repurchase.

* For the first time this month i cleaned by beauty blender, cause im a dirty girl of course, but the cleanser it came with is amazing! I used it for my beauty blender, and it was so easily cleaned. And man was it dirty before. I also used it on my two dirtiest brushes, the ones i use for blush and bronzer and they look brand new. I got this, in a set twi two beauty blenders on amazon for about $30.

* My Lord and Bsrry silk Kajal liner has inspired a full on lord and berry order so thank you ipsy! Its fast becoming my favorite.

* Urban Decays perversion mascara is another thats taking over with being used every time i wear makeup. When my sample runs out i will be picking up the full size.

* Ive been loving red lips this month, specifically 107 and 111 in the Rimmel Kate Moss collection.

* Ive also been loveing the LA colors new glosses, every single one i have is perfection and i own four and they have been worn daily.

* And my last epic favorite are my new sunglasses! Pretty sure they are from walmart. They were a gift from my cousin and im obsessed. They are patterned and teal and amazing. They are so me and i love them so.

A few other things i have been loving this month... Ive started watching Greys Anatomy on Netflix and omg im so sad im ten years late on this! lol. Also i have been loving the new songs by Iggy Azalea and Rita Ora, Black Widow, and Bang Bang by Jessie J Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj.

What things have you lovelies been loving this month? Any new things i simply have to try?

July Favorites!

Oh it is that time of the month! The time where we lament the passing of the year, claim we dont know where all the time is going and then put on a very happy smile and share what we have simply been loving this month. But no seriously, where has the time gone??

Ok now i did branch out just a bit this month, and not just included my best in beauty, but also some things i have been loving, tv, books, movies and blogs wise. And i say we just right on into the goodies!

My Makeup favorites this month have really reflected the weather. With a couple of east coast heatwaves here in the U.S. its been hard to wear makeup for fear of it melting off. Because of that i have been keeping it very light and most days very natural.

* Little Mix by Collection full on mascara - Perries Lengthening Black Mascara
* Hard Candy Glamoflauge heavy duty concealer - Medium
* Physicians Formula Supper CC+ - Light/Medium

Other Bits and Bobs-
I have been loving recently a Beauty Blogger that i found on instagram, Danielle of IRLBeauty. Shes a Scottish blogger who has only ever been engaging and sweet when interacting on instagram and her blog is now one of my favorites to check out when im in a reading mood. She is completely worth the read people and i will link her below. Another massive fav for me this month has been Who You Are by Jessie J. I might be completely late to fangirling over her but im obsessed/in love, and cant wait to hear more from her. Special attention should be paid to Do it like a dude as well as Whos laughing now.... my two favorite songs this month. And finally with the released of the new Fifty Shades of Grey trailer this last week i have been devouring this book for a second time (Dont judge me, its an only mildly guilty pleasure) and im not going to lie, im loving every minute of it!

TV-
For me this summer has been half falling for characters iver loved for years and half finding new characters to fan girl over. Ones i have done marathons for this month are The walking dead (Thank you AMC and your 4th of july marathon)as well as Once Upon a Time, Captain Swan anyone? The two new amazing bits added into my life have been Orphan Black, I now have a huge crush on Tatiana Maslany, but most recently Hemlock Grove which really just sucks you in and i cant wait to power through this second season the way i did the first!

What have been some things you guys have been loving this month??
