Small Makeup Haul!!!

Hey everyone!!!

Today after work, I went to Shoppers to do a little bit of makeup shopping. I was running out of a few things, and wanted to try some things. And I went on the right day!!!

By the way, if you don't know what Shoppers is, it's a drug store. So it has a bunch of stuff.

It's usually overpriced in my opinion, but I was there anyways, and everything I bought was on sale!! :3

Here's everything I bought! 

Just ignore my makeup case and empty tissue box. :p I ran out this morning and that was probably one of the things I should've hauled.

But moving on!!!

The first thing I went for was Rimmel's Stay Matte powder, as I hit pan on mine.

I got my actual shade this time vs a totally weird shade that's too dark for me!

I bought two of these, because they're normally $7 at Walmart, but they were on sale for $5 each!! So I snagged two of them up. I probably would've gotten more, but they were running really low. 

This is my favourite powder to use, and I definitely recommend it.

The next thing I got is the new Maybelline Fit Me Shine Free Foundation Stick.

I've been seeing people rave about this, and I tested it out a few times in stores, and it always seemed really interesting. Plus I love anything from the Maybelline New York line.

I of course, got the lightest shade.

It felt really nice on my hand when I tested it, so I'm excited to see how it'll hold up on my face. :3

The next thing I got was the Quo Duo Ended Concealer, in the lightest shade. As per usual.

This is something I've been using for quite a while, and definitely one of my favourite concealers.

It's about $16 for one of these, but they do last a while and cover up well!

It has a stick side which I prefer, but it also has a liquid side that I like to use when I'm wearing bb creams or liquid foundations.

Quo is owned by Shoppers, I believe. But you can probably find it online somewhere if you don't have a Shoppers in your area. :3

And the last thing I bought was my favourite foundation ever, the Maybelline New York Dream Matte Mousse foundation!

I hit pan on the one I'm using, so I figured I might as well grab one before I ran out. They finally had my shade on sale, now that everyones tan and doesn't use it.

Well, not everyone. ;)

This foundation gives amazing coverage and holds up pretty good in the heat. I'm really happy I was able to find my shade!

That's everything I bought today, and I'm pretty happy with everything I got.

I was going to get some makeup removing wipes too, as I have a coupon for some thanks to Neutrogena, but they didn't have the kind I wanted, so I'll wait for another day.

Maybelline Fit Me Liquid Foundation Review!!

Hey everyone!

I'm actually posting this from my iPhone, so lets see how well it works :3

So last month I purchased the Maybelline Fit Me Foundation, in the lightest shade, 110. I got it from Shoppers, but you can probably get it from just about anywhere.

First of all, I want to say that almost every product of Maybelline's that I own, I love. So I figured I would try this one out. Another reason is because I got a beauty blender sponge so I needed a liquid foundation to try it with.

The packaging is simple but I actually really like it. It looks nice and lots better than my others.

But upon opening it, I'm not a fan of it. I don't like that I have to dump it on my hand and waste some or wash my hands after.

I've applied this with both my beauty blender sponge and a foundation brush, but I prefer the sponge as it goes on more even, gives more coverage and doesn't look streaky.

I should also add that I have oily skin, so I didn't think this through.

In my opinion, it's quite heavy on your skin and makes it feel greasy instantly. You do need a powder over this.

It blends nicely and looks good on my skin, but because its a liquid and I can't just use my hands like normal, application time is doubled if not tripled. Not good for an everyday makeup routine.

I find because it is heavier on my skin and more greasy, I do breakout a lot more when wearing this.

But it does cover scarring quite well if you layer it up.

Overall, it's a nice product and i'll use the rest of it up, but I won't be repurchasing this.

It's not something I find myself reaching for or packing with me when I travel.

My rating for it is a 6/10

ELF Makeup Haul!

Hey lovelies!!

Recently I bought some stuff on the ELF website cause they had an amazing deal going where if you spent $20.13, you got $15 worth of products for free!!

So without further delay, let's get started!
