Well let me just say that CVS Pharmacy was definitely the place for me to be last week!!!!!!!! I scored a Revlon Photoready color correcting primer, Revlon Lip butter in brown sugar, Revlon Colorstay eyeshadow quad in moonlit, and a Revlon nail polish in seductive all for $4.51 tax included. All of the products were 75% off and I had $5.00 worth of revlon product coupons, so my total was $4.51! Can you believe it?(neither could I). Less than five bucks for about $30.00 of products(if they weren't on sale). Let me tell you a little bit about each of these. The lip butters are amazing! So moisturizing, not heavy on your lips at all, really nice hint of color, no heavy scents, or oils. The nail color is a grayish, but changes color depending on the way the light hits it. I have been wearing this one for 4 days now, and it is chip free, hasnt faded, or needed any touch ups. So far so good. The shadows are very nice neutral browns, varying from light eggshell, up to a chocolatey shade. They are long lasting, dont crease or budge,(I do use a primer underneath). The face primer, well its okay, I dont recommend you wearing it everyday if you have oily skin, as it is not oil free. It seems to hold up fairly well for the majority of the day. It does however make your pores appear smaller, and gives a more balanced appearance to the skin.(big plus for me). Well, I guess that about sums it all up. Stay tuned, there are more blogs to come. Remember its only my opinion. :)

my fave mascara, and a not so good one
Hello, I am new to all of this blogging stuff. I will try not to go on and on, so let me get down to it. I am NOT a beauty guru by any means, this blog is just my opinion of products I have tried love, or hate. I dont get any money, or free products by doing this. I understand I cannot please everyone, something I tried and dont like, you may love, and thats okay we all have different needs and products affect all of us differently. So here is my favorite mascara, its from Wet n Wild and its $2.99, it gives volume, zero clumps, zero smudges, it has a traditional brush(which I love)and did I mention its ONLY $2.99!!!!!!!!!!!! This is available at Walgreens, and some Walmart stores. Bottom line, it is a good product for not alot of cash, definitely worth a try. Now onto a not so great mascara- Dior Diorshow! UGH, I would have been better off putting vaseline on my eyelashes!!!!!! It makes my lashes so clumpy, and smudges like crazy. In my opinion its definitely not worth the hefty price tag, when you CAN get awesome lashes with drugstore products. Again, you may love Diorshow mascara, and Im fine with that, remember its only my opinion.
