MAC and Forever 21 Haul!!

So i went shopping last Friday, for the things to make a nail polish rack (and I'll put pictures up when I get it hung up on the wall), and ended up going to Forever 21 and MAC...shocker! lol. Here's what I picked up:



At MAC I only got two things, with a gift card I had from Christmas. I got a creme blend blush in "Something Special" it's described as a "light coral" color, and I thought it was really pretty and springy...and I kind of can't wait for spring now that Christmas is over. I don't know about you guys, but I HATE winter! This is also the first creme blush I've gotten from MAC so I can't wait to try it! The second thing I got from MAC is a Tinted Lip Conditioner in "Petting Pink" and I love these. This is my third one. The color is described as "pink sheen" and I like how the color is a soft light pink as my other two are a deep plum color and a bright coral one. I LOVE the texture on these, and they make my lips feel so soft!



At Forever 21 I bought things from their new spring collection (I'm telling you, I have spring fever!), The shorts are high waisted and the tank top is tiered. I can't wait to be able to wear these things (and yes, the only reason why I got the earrings is for the little anchor ones...THEY'RE SO CUTE!! =D )

Essence Nudes Lipgloss Surprised Me


This is the shade I have, Toffee Forever. It has a really good smell and taste too by the way! :)


So I was in Ulta the other day shopping around and I was picking up another Essence liquid eyeliner (which is awesome...btw) and i saw that they had Nude lipgloss, a color I don't own much of. I was pretty skeptical since it was only $1.99 but boy was that $1.99 well spent. The formula is good (not sticky at all...I LOATHE sticky lip glosses, it's why i hate MACs), it doesn't wash me out like i feel a lot of nude lip glosses do, and they have it in quite a few shades so you can buy one close to your skin tone. I got shade 04 Toffee Forever, one of the darker ones and I love it! I feel like it can be an everyday lip gloss or a special occasion one!


It might look a little pinky on me, because I had on a deep red lipstick that left a little remnants...but you get the idea.

NOTD




This is my China Glaze nail polish in "Near Dark," I found it recently at Ulta on sale for $3.99! Almost half price for China Glaze. The formula seemed a lot thinner than usual China Glaze Polishes...which I liked, because they usually take a long time to dry for me or bubble up. It's a really dark mossy green color that looks almost black. I tried to capture the green the best I could in the pictures, so i hope they read well.
