Give June Some Lovin'

I know this is slightly overdue, but I decided to make a June Lovin' post. So I'll be showing off my favorite products from June. =]

My Nintendo 3DS - I just received this as my graduation gift from my parents and I am absolutely in love with it. I love the color my parents chose, the torquiosey blue! I love that I can play even though my depth perception is completely bonkers. I even convinced my friend to get one so we can play together. This definitely will make traveling in the car with my parents a lot easier. 

Moi Minerals Onya - I love orange eyeshadows, hands down. But this one I must have used at least 15 times because of the pink in it. For some reason, I've been adoring orange/pink shadows. And you can see the pink in some of the pictures.  

Moi Minerals Cactus - was my go-to neutral for June. It is a really light yellow/white color that has a little green in certain lights. This was always a great shadow to wear when I was lazy. 

Moi Mineral Limelight - is an amazing light lime green. This shadow would make my eyes pop. This shadow seems so fragile on which is why I love it. I wore this so many times in June. It is very jumpy and fun but very soft at the same time. 

Shiro Cosmetics Wheeeeeee! - This shadow is amazing. It is a pink with some orange undertones. I usually am not a fan of straight pinks but since this has the orange undertones, I love it. It looks amazing on and isn't extremely powerful. I wore this shade for my Graduation look. 

Ecotools Lip Conditioner - this has been my chap stick for the last 2 months or so. It is a big chap stick. I really like the minty smell of the chap stick but it doesn't leave my lips dry at all. It leaves them really smooth and moist all the time. The "Nonstop Moisture" guarantee is real let me tell you!

NYC Extreme Lip Glider Lip Gloss in Chelsea Rose - is a dark pink/mauveish gloss with lots of sparkles. I used this a lot because there wasn't a ton of color payoff with the gloss but it gave my lips a nice shine and sparkle. This gloss smells like a watermelon lollipop which is pretty nice. I liked applying this for when I was going on dates with the boyfriend because he doesn't mind a little lipgloss

Here is the lipgloss with a little application.

Here it is with about triple the amount as before.

Essence Lash Mania - has been my go-to mascara all month long. This mascara makes my lashes thicker and longer. Also, this mascara keeps them curled all day long =]. Now my only problem with this mascara is it does sometimes flake a little and it isn't waterproof. But I do love it to death. 

Before

After

Essence Brow Designer in Light - I've used this product for about 4-5 months now. I love it. This is exactly my brow color, it doesn't budge and it doesn't wear off at all. It also fills in my brow and has a wax built in so it sculpts at the same time. I love this product. I bought like 3 more. =]

Evil Shades Matte Silk - Awhile ago I was asked to test Evil Shades Matte Silk because my skin is oddly oily all the time. And I've never really used anything like this before so I was very excited and boy did I fall in love. I kept me nice and shiny free for hours even after I went to the gym and sweated. I am almost out of it now. I'll have to buy some more!

Essie Absolutely Shore - I am totally in love with this polish. It is a dusty pastel green that looks pastel blue sometimes. It its wonderful. Best color I've ever owned. I'm almost afraid I'll use it all up...but I think I'll be okay =].

Pure Ice Lightning Strikes - this is a silver crackle. I adore this crackle so much! I have 2 other brands of crackle polish and Pure Ice is just as good as the China Glaze ones. I love how this looks with Essie Absolutely Shore. I haven't tried it with any other colors but I'm sure it'll look good with them too. 

So here are my June favorites. Next up will be July! lol =]

Now I wanna go make some lunch and get the mail.

Love,

Green and Purple LOTD + NOTW

So, in the midst of this lingering depression I've been having lately with my boyfriend being gone for the next month. I've been trying to cheer myself up by watching Scrubs, buying nail polish, and trying out makeup stuff. Here is the LOTD first. Its a simple green and purple look.

What I used:

Moi Minerals e/s in Limelight

Essence Liner in Hang Loose

Essence Lash Mania Mascara

Essence Brow Designer in Light

Some of these photos were taken with flash and some in natural light. 

Limelight is one of my absolute favorite limey green shadows. Its to die for!

Now for the NOTW. My grandma thought it would be nice to get me two different Chanel nail polishes (yes Chanel!). She bought me Paradoxal and Black Pearl as part of my Graduation gift. So I dashed and put on some Paradoxal. But I've been craving to use my Pure Ice White Crackle polish too. So I put some of that on top. Here's what came out of it!

Yay! I hope you enjoyed my post for todaii. I wish my summer was going better. Its been tough. I never realized how much I really loved my boyfriend until he left. I really loved him before...but this is plain torture. We hung out every single day before he left. Now that he's gone...I just feel so lonely. He can't text me or really talk to me in any way either. Where he is, he gets no service. Todaii, we talked on Facebook chat for five minutes. Then I cried for a good half our. Todaii is our four month anniversary, I know it might not seem long, but he is the longest relationship I've ever had. I really do love him and I do feel like I can spend the rest of my life with him. He is 2 years younger than me, so when I go out to college, he won't be there. But theres Skype and things. And he promised to visit me whenever he can. Which helps a lot. I love him. That's all that matters right now. And returning the bowl he left at my house to his mom. I should do that soon...his mom is so nice. Well now that I've taken up alotta space, I'm gonna blast some Lady Gaga and Jimi Hendrix and maybe post some more later. 

Love,

T

DON'T FORGET TO ANSWER MY POLL =]

Ulta Haul!!!

Woohoo my first haul post! So, I went to Ulta with the hopes of just buying some stuff. Mostly just some necessities to save them for college just in case there wasn't an Essence section in Ulta in Pittsburgh. Essence is my absolute favorite non-indie line of makeup. Their stuff is inexpensive and pretty good quality. I love their mascaras and their nail polishes. I own every single mascara they've made in the last 2 years. I also love their lip glosses now too.
So, at Ulta they had some of the old Essence stuff on clearance so I jumped over and bought those instantly. I also got a really pretty Ulta nail polish on clearance. So here are the pictures!!

Here is the lipstick Creamy Nude with I like cotton candy over it. All of them are in natural light.

The Ulta polish has no name. So I call it Ulta Forest Green. 

This polish is awesome!!! Its a black polish with lots of tiny rainbow glitter in it. its soooo awesome!

This polish is a dark forest green color with green sparklies in it! love love love love!

I am a total sucker for light blue polish. I have 3 different ones. This one has a pearl like feature that shines kinda purpley like. 

The World's Coolest is a nice pigmented light blue liquid liner. Its very pretty.

Hang Loose is a somewhat sheer violet liner. Its got some pretty sparklies in it too!

Welcome to Wonderland is a sheer base glitter liner with silver glitter. Its not too over powering though like some glitter liners. 

This gloss looks really red in the bottle but came out alot pinker in the swatch. I like it tho. 

This gloss is a nice muted pink color. I love it. 

Creamy Nude is a really nice soft lipstick. Its a little darker then I thought it was going to be but I love it. 

So I hope you enjoyed my first ever haul! =]

Love,

Graduation LOTD

So I graduated high school last Wednesday. My gown was white. Boring white. Very boring white. So, I thought I should make my makeup really outrageous to balance out the boring white gown. So I asked around on Twitter for ideas and the gorgeous lady at Turtle Beauty gave me the idea for bright pink with winged eyeliner. Now, I never wear liner ever ever ever. But hey, its graduation. Be different. So I tried my best and gave it my all and here's what came out of it.

What I used:

Shiro Cosmetics: Wheeeeeee! 

Aromaleigh: Candy (brow line)

MAC Chromaline in Black Black

Random Japanese Mascara

Essence Glitter Liner (inner eye)

Essence Brow Designer Pencil

Sephora Mineral Foundation

Clinique Mineral Veil

Evil Shades Matte Silk

Finished Eye.
