NYX Green Concealer Review

I FINALLY got a green primer. I got this at Ulta for $4.99. Green colored primers are good for covering up redness on the face. NYX is one of my fave brands at Ulta. The price is reasonable, and the quality is pretty good. I have ALOT of their lipsticks, blushes, and use their felt tip eyeliner everyday.

I had a couple of red patches on my face, and a pimple on my forehead to cover up. I already put my Estée Lauder BB cream before putting the green primer. I probably could have put the primer on first, and then applied my Concealer and BB cream on top.

I used my fave concealer chubby stick by L'oreal and simply went over the green primer.

Final step! I blended the primer and concealer together with my beauty blender which was sprayed with a little water, set my face with my Smashbox halo powder and ta da! Redness and blotchy skin gone! I'm impressed with this primer, the texture was smooth and easy to blend. My skin looked really even throughout the day as well. I'm not sure what the proper method is of applying green primer, but I found this way pretty effective. If you guys use green primer, how do you use it?

Mini Ulta Haul

I love pore strips. I love the feeling of ripping them off and seeing what your strip has.... Haha I know it's such a weird thing to enjoy.... But hey, I'll admit it! I wish they were a little cheaper though. Luckily I only get these every 3 months, because I think $7.99 for them at Ulta are a bit much to buy every month. Plus, I heard it's not good if you use a pore strip every week because it can strip off the surface of your skin. I've also been wanting a green concealer for when I get redness on my skin or a bad alien pimple. I will have a review with pics up soon of the concealer.

Ulta Haul - Boscia skincare

 

Ulta has an amazing sale on boscia products till April 13, 2013. All boscia products are 50%! SCORE! I thought the line was leaving Ulta, but when I asked a sales associate they said it was just a part of their 21 days of Beauty deals! I spent $72 on everything compared to $150 regular price.  I've always liked this brand but never bought anything. Everything I tried before were in samples from Sephora. I stalked up a little so I can have products to use once I am finished with my Estee Lauder and Clinique products. This brand is really good on sensitive skin. I find it very good for my skin too. I might go back to stalk up some more! 

 

20% your entire purchase at Ulta! This week only!

Ulta Haul

I got an AWSOME deal on these last week at Ulta.

Prices:

• Brushes were BOGO 50%, so 1 brush was $9.99, and the other $3.99
• Body butter is usually $6.99 but there was a $1 off coupon attached to it

I had a $5 off of $15 coupon from Glamour magazine, and a $3.50 off of $10, I guess you can double up on some coupons because the cashier let me. My total was an amazing $11 something = mesohappy

Product Review(s):
Real Technique Brushes - I highly reco this brand . They are very affordable and work well. They are the best price when Ulta has it for BOGO 50%, and you can use a Ulta coupon on top of that.

c.Booth Honey & Almond Body butter - I am not in love with the texture of this body butter. I love the scent, but the texture isn't as soft or whipped, it's very dense so it's hard to spread-ESP when I have to hurry to get ready after a shower. I wanted to get lotions/creams in a jar because I hate when you have a bottle with a pump and you run out and most of the product is on the bottom, and you have to try so hard to get the rest of it out so it doesn't go to waste. My friends mom has a Kiehl's body butter in a jar for a whooping $25 though.... I am in the search for a cheaper alternative! I might try TJ. Maxx next time I need lotion.

Hope you enjoyed this Makeup Haul post!

New fave lip gloss stickies - Revlon

These just came out recently! I saw this on one of my fave YouTube beauty bloggers, so I had to try them.

• $8.99 each.
• Ulta has a good sale right now on Revlon cosmetics, BOGO 50% & an Ulta coupon on top of that.
• These are really easy to wear, just add a dab of moisturizing lip gloss and color your lips like a crayon! They literally look like crayons. You can also build up the color if you want more pigment.
• The texture is really nice, I even applied these w/o a moisturizing lip gloss or balm and it already has a glossy/soft texture.
• I like these for an every day look, sometimes lip sticks look too harsh.
• I think these are better than their other lip stain product with the felt tip pen at the end, and the gloss at the other. I bought 2 last yr and color barely came out of the felt when I would apply.

Hair trend: Bangs

Sometimes I get the urge to cut my bangs, but I chicken out because I wouldn't want them everyday... They'd be nice to just have a new hairstyle once in awhile.  My sister has bangs and their so cute on her!

At Ulta I've seen Jessica Simpson's hair extension line & they have clip on bangs!!!!! They come in blonde & brunette & I'm in the process of dying my hair shades of chocolate brown so one day I'm going to buy them. Their not expensive either. I'll post a pic once I buy them.
