Here’s a few things I’ve picked up lately. I’m going to post a rundown of all my palettes (the generic ones) tomorrow, including which ones I would buy again and where to get them!

Top: 26 Eyeshadow/Blush Palette

Clockwise from top left: Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Polish in natural, Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Polish in vintage frost, NYC Ultra Moist Lip Wear Lipstick in retro red, Annabelle Kohl Eyeliner in white.

I am soooo excited!! My Sigma brushes are here!! They are amazing, amazing quality for the price ($69 USD – without a brush roll, $89 – with). But more on them soon, I’ll be putting together a full in-depth review on them during the next few days, and I’ll hopefully have it up early next week.

Here’s what I’ve picked up over the last few weeks:

Top: Sigma face brushes-  SS187 stippling, SS150 powder, SS194 concealer, SS190 foundation, SS168 contour/blush.

Top: Sigma eye brushes- SS209 liner/lip, SS275 angled shader, SS252 flat shader, SS266 angled liner, SS219 pencil, SS239 shading, SS224 blending.

Top: This is so cute!! A free mini SS217 was included in my package! It’s actually one of my favorites, so I emailed the company and asked when they will be offering a full sized SS217 and they said they’ll have one out in two months!!

Top: Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Nail Color in gunmetal, Wet n’ Wild Mega Glo Illuminating Powder in spotlight peach.

Top: NYX For Your Eyes Only 10 Color Palette in smokey eyes, NYX Runway Collection 10 Color Palette in champagne & caviar.

I love the NYX palettes so much I had to order two more!! I’ll be reviewing those in-depth very soon.

In case you haven’t noticed, I really love these Xtreme Wear polishes.  I think I have about ten now…haha.  Anyway, here’s another swatch, this one’s called gunmetal, and it looks exactly like it should; a shiny silver/grey.  It’s a perfect fall shade!

This is just another swatch of a gorgeous nail polish; Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in “Emerald City.”  I highly recommend these polishes; the line has really brilliant and unique shades, they dry quickly and are long lasting!~

So I’m still on a quest to find a mascara as good as Maybelline’s The Colossal.  I’m so close to just buying it again!  But I like trying new things and since the waterproof Lash Blast didn’t work out, I thought I would try Lash Blast Luxe… and there was a 40% off sale at Shopper’s Drug Mart so I got a few other products too!

Also, Wal-Mart had a 40% off Revlon products a few days later…

Clockwise from top left: Cover Girl Lash Blast Luxe Mascara in black platinum, Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick in airy fairy, Annabelle Le Gloss Star Lip Shine in superstar, and Cover Girl Eye Enhancers Eyeshadow Trio in shimmering sands.

From left: N.Y.C. Matte Bronzer in sunny, Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Nail Polish in red carpet, Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in cherries in the glow, Revlon Matte Lipstick in really red.

Above: Revlon Matte Lipstick in Really Red.

Initial thoughts: I haven’t tried the mascara yet, but I know I’ll love it because it’s just like regular Lash Blast but with bits of shimmer (“black platinum” has silver shimmer).  The eyeshadow trio is really pretty, I just wanted to pick up a nice neutral palette for everyday wear so I think this will work well.  The photo above does nothing for the Annabelle gloss, it is gorgeous! This was a total impulse buy, because I was just so taken with the color. It’s a light champagne shade and it’s very shimmery. Beautiful!!  Lastly, I caved and bought the Rimmel lipstick because it seems everyone loves this “airy fairy” shade. I thought it was going to be a much more neutral shade, but it’s more of a light mauve-y pink.  Very pretty, and I like the slight cinnamon scent too!

I love the matte bronzer; it’s really hard to find a matte bronzer in the drugstore, so this is a really great find.  I use it for contouring.  The nail polish is obviously gorgeous!!  A brilliant rich red color with red sparkles.  Cherries in the Glow is a really pretty berry-bordering on red-shade, I really love Revlon’s Super Lustrous glosses.  Lastly, the matte lipstick is amazing.  It’s incredibly pigmented and the truest red shade of lipstick I’ve ever seen.

All these products are awesome!~
