Black Friday Haul

♥Victoria Secret (PINK)• Bath & Body Works•Forever 21• Express• Francesca's ♥

Happy December!! 

It was my first time to experience the craziness of what BF sales are and it was crazy. I was so excited to get to the mall I actually told my boyfriend to start our shopping exactly at 12:00 am on Friday. First thing we see is the longest line of cars trying to enter the mall and trying to find us a parking space. I noticed that since there were so many people it didn't feel like it was that early in the morning.

♥ VICTORIA SECRET (PINK) ♥

 I went and bought these in separates days and everything I got is from the Pink store. The pajamas were all in L but got very lucky to find at least one in size S. Actually if it wasn't for my boyfriend helping me look for it I would have not found one. Along with that I also bought 5 cute under wears . Pink was also giving away the mini pink dogs with any purchase and secret reward cards with any $10 purchase.  

♥ BATH AND BODY WORKS ♥

Bath & Body works was the second store I went to buy on black Friday because their amazing candles were on sale 2 for $10 so I couldn't miss it and end up getting on of the candles and shower gel for free with my free item coupon with any $10 purchase. The wallflowers in winter candy apple & pineapple mango were also on sale; two packs refills for $5 when it's originally $12.50 each.

♥FOREVER 21♥

Forever 21 is one of my favorite stores because their prices are amazingly low.I am a college student right now so I am always trying to save as much as I can. So far I've never had any complaints with the quality of the clothes I personally own. Even though the quality it's not always the best at the store, you just have to look carefully. The stripes sweater caught my eyes with the neon color and the fabric is lightweight and almost sheer. Second, I bought gray jeans and honestly I've never bought jeans for such a low price! They fit like a skinny jean so it's great to wear it with any shoes.

♥ EXPRESS ♥

Express has been one of the stores I've just started to love because their clothes are very classy and elegant.  I wasn't planning on buying clothes during black Friday because I like taking my time trying on clothes but it was pointless to do so at Express because of the ridiculously long line... so I only chose one top. Everything was 50% off that day so good thing I didn't paid full price. This is what the print says on the back:

This is the place of endless fun. Life is in color, love is bright and brilliant. The golden sun shines, the skies stay blue. I ride the waves of life and my heart beats for you.

♥ FRANCESCA'S ♥

Love my blue cardigan from Francesca's! The moment I saw it, it was love at first sight. I love the bright blue color and the fabric is great quality. I was pretty close on buying this full price before black Friday because I really wanted to have it now and was afraid somebody else would take it. I'm so glad I waited because during black Friday I paid half price!

NYC New York Color IndividualEyes Custom Compact

The beauty blogger Voxbox came with so many great products that were new to me like this custom compact from NYC New York Color. I am not someone who wears eye shadows too often. I would wear every kind of  make up but except eye shadow and this is all because I just really never learned how to create the right effect that it suppose to look like when applying eye shadow. Now, things have changed for me because this palette has made my life easier because it comes with steps telling you where to put the color on your eye. I know there is so many other brand palettes that have the same easy to do instructions but I was just too lazy to buy them lol. Every time I go out now is my favorite thing to put on my eyes because It makes my eyes pop and give me a complete new look. It's kind of strange how I wanted to buy a palette or mini compact for so long to get started and get comfortable applying eye shadow and finally I have it! Now, let me show you how a picture of myself and how I tried to pull off the colors! 

I know I need a lot more practice and from here is only going to get better because I am in love with all the effects you can create with eye shadows. I am lucky that I will not only have to practice on myself but next year I start the make up classes in my Aesthetics program and I seriously can't wait to learn more about make up.

NYC New York Color Individual Eyes Custom Compact has everything you need for a complete eye look. It comes with a primer, illuminator, applicator and complementing shadows. It is called an individual eye custom compact because it's designed for your eye color! Choose from the 6 available shades! Click here:

Kiss Ever PRO Lash Starter Kit

The kiss ever pro lashes was one of my second favorite product to try on from my Influenster VoxBox. It was honestly my second time trying to put on lashes and this time it was easier to put and all to the Pro Lash applicator ( the pink little stick) It was very interesting to try on these lashes because they looked very bold and dramatic. Each kit comes with 1 pair of eye lashes, 13 adhesive, and 1 Pro Lash applicator. The kiss lashes have a variety of looks to choose from so you can  find the perfect for you. You can find one for your day time look or evening here in their website:

--->Kiss Ever Pro lashes <----

Once I finished putting them on I noticed that they look very dramatic and would fit better for an evening look. I felt super confident like I was about to walk the runway! My eyes looked very dramatic and mysterious I also felt I was somebody else. I have to say that once I went out to show off my new style I realized that people were staring at my eyes which It kind off made me feel like wow..I did not know putting on some eye lashes could actually change your whole look so easy and fast. The Ever Pro lashes are so affordable and easy to use if it's your first time trying eye lashes on. Here is how I looked with my favorite eye lashes on!

I promise these eye lashes look even better in person than in pictures. I could not fully capture how different my eyes looked with these on! I totally loved it!

I actually had to cut the inner corners but just a little bit because my eyes are small. If you are interested in getting these eye lashes they retail for only $4.99

To use: Apply the glue to the lash band and let it dry/set for 30-60 seconds for the adhesive to become clear. After that grab the Pro lash applicator and put it along your natural lash line. Hold it still so it dries completely and repeat with the other one. In no time you will have flawless and gorgeous, dramatic...just bold looking eye lashes you will want to show off to everyone!

Bath & Body Works Fall Mini Candle

Today I am going to review about a wonderful product from the very well known brand Bath & Body Works. One of the products I received inside my Influenster Voxbox was the mini candle called White Barn Nutmeg & Spice. This scent has completely made me fall in love and wanting for more. Every time I smell it makes me feel warm and cozy...you know that feeling when you get home after a long day. It only takes a few minutes to work its magic and take you over with the amazing nutmeg and spice scent. I have to say that I am the kind of person that is not too fond of strong fragrances because I get dizzy very easily but this candle it's not too sweet or strong is just PERFECT! I was surprised at how well this mini candles delivers so well the scent I could smell it across my room. This is also actually the very first candle I've ever tried from Bath and Body Works and I am so glad I got to test this one out. Next to the nutmeg and spice is the White Barn Frosted Cupcake and I have to say that these two combined make my room smell even better. 

I can't wait to get this one in the 3-wick candle this week on black Friday. I am going to go crazy and might just get a bunch of these along with the frosted cupcake. Those two are my top favorite.

NYC New York Color

How I wear it!

• Over my favorite pink lipstick
  Or by itself. It looks very clear but in person the color shows more. 

The new liquid lip shine from New York Color has pure pigments ingredients that gives a 3-D effect. It has Vitamin E providing shine and moisture at the same time. It is not sticky and creates a creamy and soft texture feel. You can find 10 fabulous new shades from neutral nudes, to berries, and fuchsias.  Fins them all in their website: NYC New York City

What I like about the Nude York City (582) lip gloss is that it gives my lips a natural shine and it is almost like a clear gloss too. It goes well with any lipstick on top, red or pink look great. It is very moisturizing, goes on easy and long lasting. The color is beautiful by itself and I would recommend it to anyone. The price is pretty awesome, it retails for 2.49!
I noticed it has a little bit of glitter which I thought it gave a nice touch and effect to the lips. I remember I was not a fan of lip glosses before because I thought it looked like a greasy tacky effect on the lips but now that I've tried this NYC lip gloss it changed my mind. It is a very pretty color as well as the other available 10 shades.

Veet Wax Strips

The Veet ready to use wax strips is such a must have for me to achieve beautiful smooth skin now. One of the thing I like about this product is how quick I was able to use them. The instructions were pretty easy to follow ; there were actually only five steps to follow...how easy can that get huh? I was very familiar to this brand way before I received this product inside my VoxBox. Also, using these strips was a breeze to test because I already knew they were going to work on my legs. The very first time I used them I remember to be very hesitant and scared that it would hurt. Pain is not as bad as you think, once you get through the second strip, I promise you will forget about it. If you want to get effective results, you must let the hair on your legs grow a little bit longer because it just works better that way. It will be difficult to get the hair from the root if it's too short. Getting the hang of these strips is easy. It's all about practice and following instructions. You can either rub the strip between your hands or even heat them a little bit in the microwave..this method worked for some people too. Once you get done with both legs it's normal too see some irritation, I have sensitive skin but the irritation always heals by the next day or later in that day so no worries. The oil sheets are very greasy but in my opinion it's better that way. If it was a dry sheet how would you get the left overs out of your leg seriously? Just rub the oily sheet a little bit hard against your skin and it will come out..it's all about the pressure. Overall, using cold wax strips is just more convenient than using hot wax at home. It's not as messy, you will get done a lot quicker and the results will be effective. My legs are always smooth ready every time I use the Veet wax strips. I've also used and currently using the hair cream removal from Veet and it work wonders. I use the hair cream on certain parts on my body where the hair is not as coarse like on my legs.

                           

This Veet wax trips are specially formulated to remove hair from the root. If you want to keep your skin smooth and hair free for longer, the veet wax strips can give you just that. It removes hair for the bikini area, underarms, and legs. It will feel like getting a salon quality smoothness that will last for up to 4 weeks. It has a sensitive formula with almond oil and vitamin E. What else can you ask for? You can find out which Veet hair removal works better for you at the official Veet website.
