NOTD: Maybelline "Sweet Clementine"


Hey everyone! Its been a while since I posted up a NOTD post or any swatches on nail polishes but I was going through my nail polish collection to remind me of all the nail polishes that I own. LOL I tend to do that every once in a while, especially since my collection has gotten a bit out of hand. While I was looking through all the polishes that I own when I noticed a polish that I had rarely touched. I decided to pull it out and start using it again, especially since its a perfect color for the Summer.




Maybelline "Sweet Clementine" is a gorgeous orange polish. Usually I am not a fan of orange shades but this one definitely caught my eyes enough to make me buy it last year. I know that its in the old packaging and I am not sure if they still have this shade but in the newer packaging but I highly doubt it since it was part of a limited edition collection. I was actually surprised at how nicely it still applied and makes me want to try out their new polishes to see if the formula is similar.

QUESTIONS:
Have you guys tried out any Maybelline nail polishes before?

According to the display, you can "rock the heat with these sizzling shades!"

Walgreens Haul (Feat. Almay, Burt's Bees, Maybelline, & Rimmel)


Hey everyone! Oh my goodness, I haven't been to Walgreens in such a long time. I think the last time I went was to look for the new LE Wet N Wild Spring 8 pan palettes. I actually went to a Walgreens store that was further away from me and opened up a few months ago. I figured since its somewhat new, chances are they might be better at stocking up new products. I don't know if they were either sold out or maybe because the employees didn't put the display out yet but all I knew was that I didn't want to leave empty handed since I hate driving to a store and not buying anything since that wastes car gas.

I was actually quite pleased with this Walgreens store because its so clean and organized. Plus they had a small box of makeup and nail polishes on clearance! So you know, I had to love that store mainly for that fact! They actually had a bunch of products on clearance but I didn't want to go all out and shop like crazy so I only bought things that I had coupons for. Yes, all the items that I purchased in this haul were bought with coupons! Each item had their own coupon and because the majority of them were on clearance, I only paid a couple of cents for each product.

WHAT I BOUGHT:
Almay Clear Complexion Concealer "Light"
Yes, I bought myself another back-up of this. I decided to buy the light shade since the one that I finished up was light/medium, which you will be seeing in a future empties post. I feel like the light one might be better for my skintone to cover up blemishes since the light/medium shade tends to get a bit dark, if I reapply it on the same spot.
Almay Get Up & grow Mascara "Blackest Black"
Yes, I bought another tube of this since the coupon that I had for Almay required me to buy two products, I decided I might as well get this another one of this. Plus if I ended up liking the mascara, I would have hated to pay full price for another one when I could have gotten it on cheaper. You know me, I could never pass up a good deal. I can't wait to try this though because it claims to give you stronger and longer lashes so that should be interesting.


Maybelline EyeStudio Stylish Smokes Quad "Emerald Smokes"
This is a great quad for those who love doing smokey eye looks. Its a great palette with dfferent shades of green. You can use this quad to create soft green looks to a smokey, sultry green look. There is so much you can do with this one quad. I will actually have post, featuring swatches on this eyeshadow quad so stay tuned for that.
Maybelline Define-A-Line Eyeliner "Navy Blue"
I remember when I first got into makeup and one of the very first eyeliners that I tried was a Maybelline eyeliner. I don't remember which line it was from but I remembered that I really liked it so I got this to try out. Plus since its a blue eyeliner, I figured that it would be great to wear in the Summer on the waterline as a pop of color.


Burt's Bees Super Glossy "Nectar Nude"
This would be my first time trying a lip gloss from Burt's Bees. Hopefully I will end up liking it. Plus if I do, I'll probably go out and try their new line of lip glosses that they recently released a few months ago. I was hoping that there were other shades in the clearance bin but this was the only one left, which is fine since its a nude shade. I feel like nude lip glosses look great on their own as well as on top of other lipstick shades. This is 100% natural so hopefully it won't end up irritating my lips.
Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Balm "Blush Orchid" (x2)
These lip balms are somewhat new since they were just released a couple of months ago. I was always curious about these but I didn't want to pay $7-$8 for a lip balm so I decided to just wait for a sale. I am so glad that I waited since I got these for a couple of cents each! These are supposed to moisturize your lips while giving them a hint of color. I think Blush Orchid is a new shade that Burt's Bees recently came out with for Spring 2013 but please correct me if I am wrong.


Rimmel Lasting Finish By Kate Lipstick "04"
I think this was part of a limited edition collection that came out a while back but I could be wrong. Let me know if you know this shade is part of the core collection or a limited shade. When I first saw this shade, I knew that I just had to get it. Its my first dark lipstick and one to two layers is definitely opaque. I have already worn it three times and I really like it. 04 is a dark purple and if you would like to see swatches on this shade, definitely let me know!


So that is all that I bought for my Walgreens haul. I am so happy that I got great deals on all these products! I haven't tried all of these products yet but I have tried a couple and will be posting swatches up. If there is a particular product that you would like to see swatches on, please comment below and let me know! I actually can't wait to get the chance to try everything out soon.

Have you tried any of these products yet?

Spotted: Maybelline Dream Sun Line


Hey everyone! Hope you're not all getting bored with all my constant spotted posts now because I still have a couple more. If you are tried of seeing these, well too bad. LOL But if you love makeup as much as me, I am sure that you guys love seeing posts about new products because I always get happy when I see them in stores. This post is going to be on the new products from Maybelline. I don't know if these products are limited edition but if you know, please let me know. Maybelline recently came out with some new products for their Summer 2013 collection, called Dream Sun. This collection includes bronzers and bronzing face illuminators.



There are three different types of bronzers in this collection. They are matte, glow, and four seasons. I think each type has two shades each: light and medium. For the bronzing face illuminators, I think there is only one shade but I can't tell for sure, since the display only had one left when I got there. I spotted these at my local Walgreens stores and at my store, these were priced at $8.49 plus tax. But keep in mind, prices might vary by stores and region.

QUESTIONS:
Have you seen these new Maybelline products yet?

Spotted: Sinful Colors Sinful Shine Nail Polishes


Hey everyone! This is for all you nail polishes lovers out there! Especially if you are a huge fan of gel polishes with high gloss. If I just described you, then let me tell you that Sinful Colors recently came out with a new line of polishes (featuring all new shades), called Sinful Shine!! I have never tried gel polishes before but have always wanted to try them. I just let myself spend that much money on a LED light and gel polishes, especially since I have a bunch of regular polishes that I need to finish up or use. Well let me tell you that if you are like me, then these polishes might be perfect for you since they give you that gel manicure but without the need of a LED lamp.




These polishes are sold exclusively at Walgreens and they are $2.99 plus tax. Now that is definitely a great price for these polishes, especially when you think of the total price for gel polishes and a LED lamp. Sinful Shine polishes claim to be "5x more glossy than a patent leather show," according to the display. Most of these polishes are cremes but I did spot some polishes with shimmer. I might actually go back and pick some up for myself but there are so many different colors to choose from.

QUESTIONS:
Have you spotted this new line from Sinful Colors at your Walgreens yet?
Are you interested in buying any?
