Drugstore Makeup Haul!


Physicians Formula BB Cream $13.23 (Wal-Mart)
I've finally found the perfect BB cream for me! Most BB creams leave my face feeling kind of sticky and oily, but this one is super perfect and gives me coverage like a regular liquid foundation would. The only down side is that they only offer two shades, light and medium. So if you have a darker skin tone you wont be able to find one for you unless maybe there's some online, but in the stores I haven't seen any. I also like that it comes in a pretty big tube which gives you your moneys worth. 


Flower Cream Shadow $6 (Wal-Mart)
I've always seen girls on YouTube videos using cream shadows that make their eyes look amazing! I found this brand at Wal-Mart which I had no idea is Drew Barrymore's own line of makeup! The texture of this shadow is perfect and it doesn't crease as bad as most shadows do. I also LOVE the packaging of their products, especially in this little jar theres a lot of product which will last quite a while. 


Flower Concealer Stick $7.98 (Wal-Mart)
Another product from Drew Barrymore's line. I love concealers with brush applicators. I feel like they apply a lot easier and don't waste the product like other applicators. I also really love that this concealer is super creamy and gives really great coverage. 


NYX Eyeshadow Primer $6.99 (Beauty Supply Store)
I usually use the Palladio Eye primer which has been featured in a couple of the previous posts, but I decided to switch it up a little bit and use something else. I really like that this product is white, so when you put it on the color comes out a lot more vivid and bright because of the white bade. It's also super easy to apply since you just use your finger. I know this product comes in two other colors, there's a pearl and also a skin tone one to get different effects on your shadow.


NYX Natural Palette  $7.49 (Target)
I haven't used this palette yet, but I'm so excited that Target has started carrying NYX products. My store carries some of the line but we don't have any palettes only the single shadows. I'm really looking forward to creating some awesome looks with these shadows! I know NYX shadows are pretty good based on others I've used in the past. Of course I stuck to natural colors haha. 


NYX Golden Horizons Palette $12 (Target)
This palette I have used and I absolutely LOVE it! The colors are so perfect for a natural eye. The best part of the palette is that there are matte natural shadows and then shimmery natural shadows so you can go with whatever look you want! There are a couple of other palettes there with different colors. I had my eye on the Sexy Palette which had like deep reds and purples, but I'd probably never use them. I'm not that bold ha!

21st Birthday!

OMG! I realize I haven't posted in an entire month! I've been so busy with the end of the semester coming up and my birthday and anniversary last month, which btw was totally amazing! I figured a really great come back post would be some of the photos from my birthday.

I spent my 21st at Dave and Busters in New York City which was sooo fun! I can't wait to go back and just have a fun night with great food. If theres one near you I definitely suggest you take a trip with a couple of friends. The food is AMAZING and the games are so fun!
