Rimmel Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation - Influenster


I got this foundation for free to try from Influenster.com !! I was beyond excited to try something that hasnt even released in the US yet. woo 
Over all i do LOVE this foundation even though the shade i got doesnt match me at all lol 
It goes on smooth and doesnt feel cakey. 
The coverage is great med-full.
No gross smell.
It doesnt run its for sure a mousse.
Its very light weight and super easy to blend in.
I will for sure be picking it up in my shade when it hits the states. =)
Thank you Influenster and Rimmel <3

[confessions of a pyrex slut] When Pyrex dreams come true


Got my Starburst Space Saver from a seller on instagram (same seller i got my Pink Butterprint 472from) I did pay a lot but not as bad as ebay prices and it is in GREAT shape im so in love <3<3
  
This New Dots set was the reason i started collecting ITS SOOOOOO BEAUTIFULLLLLLL !!!
My first time going to  King Richards Antique Mall in Whittier CA  I almost died when i saw them sitting in a booth looking at me saying buuuuy us buy us!!! lol They have a layaway program so i jumped on that. I didnt have enough cash so i put half down so i could come back a few days later and pick them up! Didnt want someone snagging them up over the weekend. (which could have happened the other pyrex that was left in that booth was ALL GONE when i went back for my dots)
Theses Pink Butterpints are to die for i just need the 473 and my set is complete 
My Husband came home with an early Christmas gift!!!! I COULDN'T BELIEVE MY EYES!!!  I was bidding on the smaller bowl on ebay and got super bummed when i got outbid. I couldnt believe he found this set of Delphite Bluebells in a local shop it was like he was reading my mind =) 

I seriously cant wait to get a hutch so i can display all my beautiful babies <3 <3 <3

Below that we have the Blue Tulip #043 that i got from a seller on Instagram
I was terrified that it had arrived broken because the box was crushed in on one side.
Under that is the Pink Daisy Space Savers #575. (ebay)
I have falling head over heels for Space Savers and want them ALL!!!! 
HG would be the black starburst but pffffttt thats never going to happen iv never seen one other then ONE on flickr. =( waa 
The green nut grinder and chopper are from a trade on facebook. So cute and will look nice with my Spring Blossom Casseroles. 
The pink fridgie #503 was an ebay steal i got it for $12! Was so excited and it came super fast!
My last finds this week were the squirrel not vintage just SUPER EFFIN CUTE!!!! 
and duh this beautiful 501 turquoise i got from another seller on instagram =)

Ipsy - September 2013

This months theme was "Classic beauty"
At the top we have a "sample" or EM Michelle Phan's new line. This show the "The Life Palette" and give a few eyeshadows and a blush kinda just stick to the paper. Its whatever i dont really find a use for this your not going to be able to create any look with this just see how powders feel.  

Moving on we have a FULL SIZE NYX eyeshadow, smaple size of It's So Big Mascara, Mini Butter London Nail Polish!!! HOW CUUUUUUUTEEEEEE, FULL SIZE Starlooks eyeliner, & a CAILYN Tinted lip balm. 
This months bag is blue and black with a lace type pattern on it. Cute but super thin i would trust it to keep things safe from breaking just good for keeping things from rolling around your purse. 

I'm a fan of NYX so the eyeshadow is a plus. Mascara sample.... again? Most excited about the nail polish i looooove butter london but dont own a ton because they are pricey. Always love getting eyeliners and i read somewhere that Starlooks is made by the same people who make MAC cosmetics so this should be a let down. The cailyn lip tint is surprisingly very pigmented and comes with a little brush on the cap so you dont have to stick your fingers in it.

Over all im pretty pleased with this months bag. I saw that some people got a eyebrow pencil from Victoria Jackson which i think i would have liked more then the eyeliner but im still not disappointed.
Good job Ipsy still a lot more happy with them then i ever was with Birchbox.

Ipsy is a monthly subscription bag for $10.
You get 4-6 products a month and a cute bag to go with each months theme.
If you would like to sign up CLICK HERE!  

If your subscribed to Ipsy let me know what you got int his months bag.
