Im dying my hair :D

So I went to Walmart to pick up some hair dye..I usually buy mine from Sally's but I decided to give this one a try since the color looks so beautiful :D

I bought the hair dye and spray bottle at walmart


The make-up I bought at H-E-b which we went to buy groceries but I just had to stop at the cosmetics aisle :D


Cover girl was at $1.25 off so I got a blush in Iced plum..this is such a pretty pink color

and this milani blush in sunset beach..looks kinda like mai tai but more on the darker side
both are super pigmented



Ive been wanting this revlon colrstay for a while so I got it simce it was $3 off..couldnt pass up this deal :D





and a smudge brush from e.l.f



so this was my not supposed to haul!! :D I always go for something else and end up buying more make-up..I just can't resist
