HAUL ~ Longs Drugstore...

Went shopping with the bestie...

Something I love to do, but my wallet hates :) haha....



**Neutrogena SkinClearing Mineral Powder Natural Beige - Introduced to me by my bestie and a long time lemming for me (meaning I've been wanting it for ages! haha).  She had the Honey Beige color and I really loved the way it felt and looked on my skin.  I decided to go a shade lighter because I tried it on at night and figured the lighting may have just made it look like it matched my skin but during the day time it might just be a tad too light, plus it's gonna be winter soon so I'll run a little lighter in skintone.  Like I said, I loved the way it felt (super smooth and silky) on my skin and it looked as good as it felt but the best part is that it's good for your skin and supposedly helps clear it.

**NYX lip liners - I got three: Natural, Chocolate, Soft Brown.  Another buy because of my bestie.  I tried her Natural lipliner and really loved it.  I only own a couple of MAC lipliners but I personally feel that you shouldn't have to pay $14 for a lipliner especially when you can find drugstore ones that work just as good.  I opted to buy the three because they were more natural and hopefully when I do a nude lip it will help to pull it all together.  I'm looking for a NYX lipliner dupe of my beloved MAC Mahogany lipliner (it creates the perfect red lip for me at work).  I found a couple that were close but I have a little more time before that lipliner runs out to fully make a decision.

**Wet n Wild 2% Milk Nail Polish - I grabbed this off the shelf because it looked like it could've been a cheaper dupe for my OPI I need space nail polish but it's not... complete fail for this one because it's just too milky white for me :( (swatch at the end of the post)

**Wet n Wild Lust 6 pan palette - Just grabbed this because I heard it was getting discontinued.  I had one before but gave it away and decided to get another one because I love my purples :)


**CVS Daily Facials wipes - I don't own any face wipes because I ran out and ever repurchased any.  I figured I'd grab a pack just to have around when I need to fix my makeup or wipe my face down.

**Compact Powder Puffs - I saw that these were 3 for $1 so I grabbed to packets because I love using this for setting my under eye concealer.  Instead of brushing the silica powder over my concealer I like to press it one with these puffs and it creates the most amazing flawless finish for my concealer.


**Ardell Demi False Lashes - These are my all time favorite false lashes because they give that nice full flared look.  I wanted to grab me another pair but saw that it was on sale so I grabbed the last three that they had, haha..

**Wet n Wild 2% Milk swatch
This is three or four coats of the Wet n Wild with one coat of the OPI I need space over it because it just came out too white and streaky and nothing like I had hoped :(

And that's it..

** Huge thank you to my bestie for a fun relaxing day!! :) **
