Coming Soon from Tarte Cosmetics

Tartlette Amazonian Clay Matte Eyeshadow Palette
I received an email from Tarte Cosmetics giving me the opportunity to be one of the first people to purchase their new eyeshadow palette called "Tartelette". And when I read that it was an all matte palette, I just had to have it. I love matte eyeshadows more than any other and I love to try new shadows whenever possible. So this sounded like a win, win to me.
First off, the packaging is really pretty. The front is purple with gold writing and the back is gold. Just a nice look.
This palette has 12 new Amazonian Clay shadows in a variety of soft, neutral colors. I don't know if they are limited edition colors or only for this palette. But I am really loving them. The top and bottom rows are creams and browns, and the middle row are more of the pink and purple shades.
This palette also comes with a good size mirror that is perfect for putting on your makeup with.
And Tarte added a card with it that gives you the "How-To" for two looks. A "day-time" and a "play-time" look.
I know this is going to be available to purchase in the Spring of 2015, but I believe that Sephora may offer it for the VIB members.
I definately recommend this palette and I just know you will love becoming a "TARTELETTE".
If you would like to check out their website, just click here..
If you have this palette already, leave me a comment below and let me know what your thoughts are on it.
Thank you for stopping by my page and I will talk to you in my next post..

Tarte Holiday Collecction - Pin Up Girl Amazonian Clay Blush Palette
Sunday, November 30, 2014
I don't know why, but when the Holiday Collections came out this year, I was really drawn towards the Tarte "Sweet Dreams" collection. First thing I bought was the Pin Up Girl Amazonian Clay Blush palette. Omg, I fell in love with this palette. I use it almost every day. And the mirror is the perfect size.
I think the colors are just fabulous. The reason I really like this palette is that when I put my blush on in the morning, it is still on when I come home from work 10 hours later. You can put them on lightly or go full color with them. So with that stay power, I say "Thank you Tarte" and I hope your other products are as good..
Now even though I am loving the blushes, I am having a love/hate relationship with the packaging. It is very pretty, but also very bulky. It definately takes up alot of space in my makeup drawer. I wish the packaging was much slimmer. It just reminds me of a clutch.
I hope you enjoyed this review and if you are using this palette, leave me a comment below telling me your thoughts on it. And I will be back with a review of another Tarte Holiday product this week.
If you would like to see more on my Tarte Sweet Dreams Holiday collection just click on the link below and view my video. If you like it, please give it a thumbs up and subscribe.

Tarte "Sweet Dreams" Holiday Collection Haul
Wednesday, November 12, 2014
I am overwhelmed with all the makeup Holiday Edition gifts sets that have come out this year. There are so many to choose from and I just want them all.
I decided that I would only buy a couple this year and it is so hard not to just buy them all. My first purchase was from Tarte, I bought the "Pin Up Girl Amazonian Clay 12 hour blush palette" and fell in love with it. There are 5 shades and they stay on all day. So I decided to buy a couple more sets from Tarte. So far I am really liking them.
Click on the video below to see what all I purchased and what my thoughts are.

WalMart Fall Beauty Box
Sunday, October 12, 2014
WalMart has finally decided to jump on the beauty bandwagon with a seasonal beauty box. The box is free and you just pay shipping which is $5.00. So that would be $20.00 a year. Not bad at all. There are two different boxes and when you sign up, it will determine which box you recieve. I believe one is for 30 yrs of age and younger and the other is for older.
I received their first one for Fall and it is pretty good. It came with 6 items. Some are full size and some are samples. And a couple of the samples are pretty good size.
If you would like to sign up and receive your own Beauty Box from WalMart just click HERE..
Not only do they have the beauty box, but they are also going to start doing a WalMart Baby Box. I think that will be super nice if you have a baby or toddler. You will be able to choose between the two.
Click on the video below if you would like to see all the products and hear my thoughts on the box. And while your there, please subscribe to my channel if you haven't already.

BoxyCharm Subscription
Monday, September 1, 2014
I received my first BoxyCharm box last week and I am so impressed with it.
So what is Boxycharm you ask?
It is a beauty box subscription that sends you beauty products from popular and chic brands. You can receive anything from nail care, hair products, skin care and of course, our favorite products: Make-up.
Each month, subscribers receive a box filled with full size and luxury size samples from well known brands.
Monthly subscription is $21 a month, and the box I received for August was valued at $112. So in my opinion, you can't go wrong with this subscription box.
You can check out their website and sign up for your own box HERE..
I hope you enjoyed learning about this subscription box. I was extremely pleased with my first box.
Leave me a comment below and let me know what subscription boxes you are subscribed to.

Maybelline Foundations Review
Thursday, July 24, 2014
I have been on a quest for my holy grail foundation for quite some time and I recently picked up a couple of Maybelline foundations to try out. I have been using them for a few weeks and I don't know if they are my holy grail, but I definately like them alot.
First off I bought the "FIT me" foundation in the shade 220. I always have a hard time picking out my shade and this had me confused since there are 18 shades. But I finally chose the 220 and I really like the way it feels when I wear it, it covers nicely and gives a nice glow. It will last me about 8 hrs before needing to be touched up.
Then I bought the "Dream Wonder" foundation. I believe it has 12 shades to choose from. It definately reminds me of my Physicians Formula Spotless Foundation. They are both oil based with a runny consistency and the PF has a dropper to dispense the foundation and the Maybelline has a weird wand that you dip into the foundation and drop on your finger (not a fan of it at all). I like the PF dropper idea better. The Dream Wonder blends in for a light to medium coverage, it evens out the texture of my skin and will last about 7-8 hrs before it starts breaking down. I do like it also.
Do you use either of these foundations? What are your thoughts on them? Have you found your holy grail foundation? Let me know in the comments below what you think.
Thanks for stopping by and I will talk to you in my next post..

Maybelline "the Nudes" Eye Shadow Palette
I stumbled upon this palette by accident one day in WalMart. It was the only one they had and it was laying on a shelf with no price. I did not know that this palette even existed, but I knew that I had to have it. So I bought it without even asking the price (which was $9.99). I have used it almost daily since then. The colors are gorgeous and very pigmented, it stays on my eyes all day, it can be used wet or dry and I am just really loving it right now. Thank you Maybelline for coming out with a palette that is very affordable.
If you have not added this palette to your collection, I would highly suggest that you pick it up soon. I just love the fact that there is an affordable drugstore eyeshadow palette out that is actually worth buying.
If you have already purchased this, let me know in the comments what your thoughts are on it.
And as always, I thank you for stopping by and checking out my blog and I will talk to you in my next post..

IT Cosmetics
Saturday, July 19, 2014
Hello all my blogger friends,
I have found a great fondness for IT Cosmetics. I purchased a foundation and the next thing I knew, I was buying more items and using them daily. I can't wait to try more from their line. I am really wanting to try out their eyeshadow trios. Especially the "Pretty In Amber" because it is so gorgeous. And I also want to try the "My Sculpted Face" contour and highlight palette. It just looks so nice. Reminds me of the Anastasia contour palette that is almost impossible to find. And lastly the "Vitality Face Disc". These are the three items on my must-have list. I am just in love with their products. Jamie Kern, you are amazing. And we all thank you for allowing us to be beautiful.
My "IT Cosmetics" collection so far. |
This brush reminds me of the Benefit They're Real Mascara. |
IT Cosmetics "It's All About You" 5 piece customer favorites. |
Brow Power
Brow Power is a long-wear, universal eyebrow pencil that works with all hair colors, including gray. It coats each hair and adheres to skin to create a natural look--but better!
Apply Brow Power in feathery strokes to fill in and shape brows. For light hair, apply using lighter, softer strokes; for dark hair, press harder to deposit more color. Brush brows with the spooly brush to finish.
Also Check out my recent "IT Cosmetics Review" video where I share with you my thoughts on the products.. |
