St.Ives & Posh Brush

I went to H-E-B and bought me a lil somethin!! I saw the St Ives products on sale, and I had been wanting to get a neew facial cleanser so since they were on sale I picked up the face wash and the Invigorating scrub..I love how the face wash feels after u wash it off.. so effing refreshing :D I also got a Posh angled blush brush, it's so pretty..I havent used it yet but if u have any questions on it feel free to ask...by the way I love the posh brushes but the ones that I've bought usually come all loose..the black part is so wiggly it feels like its gonna come off..so most of the posh brushes I own have been super glued to secure them..after that they are perfect!! **just a little warning**



**SOMETHING NOT BEAUTY-REALTED!!**
So we were initially supposed to get married on the first week of January but we never got around to it...with me working, robert working and going to school we really never had the time..so we decided to ask for a day off and on friday we will be going to get our marriage license..I'm so happy..after 3 and 1/2 yrs of being together I think we know each others likes and dislikes and are more than happy to be getting hitched and spending godwilling the rest of our lives together!!! I am finally ready to be
Mrs. Lerma!!!

Depotting L.A COLORS Shimmering Loose Eyeshadow

I went to wal-mart today and I went to the craft section and saw a bead storing container[$6.96] and I thought hmmmmm could put my L.A Colors Loose Eyeshadow there..all i gotta do is open those stupid jars so i bought the storage containers and I got home and watched a video on youtube by MissSpero89 and I thought I can do that so I got my hammer and started doing what she was doing but I was making way too much noise and my hubby was trying to sleep so I just got a kitchen knife and just dug into the bottom lid..moving back and forth and snapped it open..it was way easier by doing this...the lids aren't that hard to snap off..it took me about 15 minutes to depot 12 of them...so this is what I did!!!
BTW this is also and awesome vid on deppoting

pic from L.A Colors website
So I bought most of my loose e/s at Dollar tree and some at a dollar store down the street [at dollar tree they were $1 and at the other store they were about $1.50] and I havent used them in the longest time cuz it was too hard to get the product out by the way that they are packaged

So this is the bead containers that I bought..it comes with a total of 24 jars [$6.96] :D

this is how the bottom looks like

I got my jar ready with the label from the L.A colors jar..the labels are super easy to take off

this was my tool


I snapped the bottom lid off and just placed the new container on top of the L.A colors jar flipped it and just let the e/s drop by shaking it a little

it's all empty now...look at the horrible packaging..so frustrating

It's now more convenient and ready to use :D



I depotted a total of 12 e/s I had

Finished Product!!!


This is how it looks from the bottom..some of the label names were black and some were clear..it looks so pretty, I cant wait to start using my loose e/s again...so be ready to see some Eotd's using these pretty babies :D...
I hope this helped!!!

Review!! Studio 35 Beauty Brushes

So I had promised a while back that I was going to review these Studio 35 Beauty Brushes that I purchased a while ago from walgreens so here it goes : D
I totally hurried on doing this for u jess!!! I hope u like it :D
Where I bought them: Walgreens
How much: $9.99
Foundation/Powder Brush
I love love love this one brush..I think it's my fave from all the four...so I always carry this brush in my make-up bag, I use it to apply my finishing powder after I apply my foundation..This one brush is amazing...it grabs the powder so well and it doesn't poke into the pressed powder like other brushes do..It applies evenly.Like I said I love it!!

Blush/Bronzer Brush
So at first I used this for my blush and I totally hated the way it applied my blush..it poked through my blush and hardly picked up any color...so for blush def not!! but then I decided to use it for my foundation and I actually loved the way it applied my liquid foundation..but when I washed it the hairs on the brush got all tangled but it still works so this brush def has it's good and bad things

Eyeshadow Brush
Okay to be honest with y'all when I first saw this brush set this was the one brush that made me not want to buy it, I was like"why the hell is it shaped like this" but I now love this brush it is my second fave :D I mainly use it to apply my highlight and it does a great job doing that..I've washed it several times and it's still looking great so def love this one


Concealer Brush
This brush is a little too stiff for concealer well at least for me..I hate how it kinda pokes my undereye and for me this part of my eye is super sensitive, when I used it it actualy made my eyes watery form when it poked me : (..so I mainly have been using it to apply my eyeshadow bases...it does a great job evenly spreading my base.



This is the way my brushes looked when I bought them...they basically look the same to me..and I have washed them several times.
They come with an insert giving you some awesome beauty tips :D
So overall I would say that the $9.99 that I spent on this brush set was totally worth it!!!
[So many uses with only 4 brushes!!!]
If u see this brush set at your local walgreens pick them up they are totally worth it
The last time I was at walgreens they were still for $9.99!! so hurry go!! lol!!!

Well I hope my mini review was helpful..If I didnt mention something u wanted to know let me know and I'll do my best to find u an answer.

I've been dying to try a look I saw in my IMAN book..It was a peacock look..So to achieve this look I used my 120 palette :D I felt like crap today..I had a sorethroat, runnynose, headache, and I felt so lazy..I slept till 2 in the afternoon and only cuz my hubby arrived from work..he had to knock on the window super hard so I could wake up & open the door..I was totally knocked out from the meds I took..I feel a little better but I still have the runnynose & sorethroat but N*E ways on to the look!!


for this look..I used all shimmer colors from my 120 palette
I used a gold, violet, blue, and emerald color

sorry about my messed up hair and attire!! Like I said I felt like crap all day :D
