Shopping My Stash: L'Oreal Colour Riche in Target Red...

Happy Monday!! Hope everyone had a good weekend...I did:) tried out of alot of new recipes( check out Fatback&Sushi in bit:)) and hung out:) and relaxed. This is the first week of school for my boys. They start kindergarten, their birthday is the 18th and I'm excited!!

I dug up L'Oreal Lipstick in Target Red for my Sunday "Best". I've worn this many times but this time seemed like absolute perfection! Really...I put on MAC Currant lip liner, blended it in, then Target Red. It's like I've been waiting ALL MY BEAUTY ADDICTED LIFE for the perfect red lipstick...and I had worn it before! lol!

I have been searching all over the web and I don't know if Target stills sells this. I bought it with the matching liner included back in 2006 0r 2007. I have no idea where the liner is...

***I kept taking my earrings on and off while taking these pictures...I decided to do "me" and not wear any. I felt over accessorized around the head area...ok...proceed***

I also found this hair accessory after my brand new Elasta QP Setting Foam spilled in the bottom of a drawer. Why hadn't worn this? Its so cute!!

Review: Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship Conditioner and Leave In Conditioner....

Here's a quick review on Herbal Essence Long Term Relationship Conditioner and Leave In Conditioner. I finally caved after the hair boards and hair you tuber peer pressure ( K.I.S.S., Hairlista...:)).They got the best of me. I picked both up for under $6.00 at Target....

HE Long Term Relationship Conditioner

Pros:

-Creamy texture, not watery. HE LTR Condish is good in the shower when your hands are wet and it doesn't slip through your fingers or out of your hands...I didn't have to 'chase' it!

-Of course it softened my hair, its conditioner( shrugs shoulders).

Cons:

-I hate the smell. Smells like Freesia, which can't stand. I thought about adding some scented essential oils, but i didn't want to mess up the product and how it works. But smell is like cheap Freesia bath products you get in a holiday set...yuck....

HE Long Term Relationship Leave In Conditioner

Pros:

-it only takes a little of the product to cover my hair which means I will get alot of use out of one bottle. Huge money saver....:)

-I like thick Leave In's like this one. It makes me roller sets soft and I feel secure that every strand is cover well when its thick textured.

-I like the packaging. The pump action is great!

Cons:

-It has the same smell as HE LTR Conditioner...hate the smell...Freesia, ugh!!!

Review: Nicka K NK Hi-Def Eye Shadows...

Hi All!!

I picked up these Nicka K Hi-Def Eye Shadow singles at my local BSS after eyeing them for a while. At this particular store, there is an entire display, about 30 colors to choose from at only $1.49 a shade, so you know you girl had to pace herself!! lol!!

I grabbed 3020,3021 and 3023....no names just numbers.

The pigment is super intense. When I used my MAC 213 brush to apply, the shadow picks up like a loose powder, but there is no fall- out and one layer is all your need. The blending is phenomenal, with the right brushes and technique:)

This is 3023, the black shade. Its kinda holographic, that is, it looks black, goes on rich dark blue but you step back and its a smoky grey...for $1.49.

This is 3020, the green shade....this more true to the shade you see, a very intense apple green

This 3021, the blue shade. Can't have enough blue shadow, I tell ya.... :)

I FEENIN' for more of them! But, the other colors are shades that look like I already have them.They all look like satin shadows, and I need more mattes.I would love create a palette with some of the colors. But at $1.49... I could possible buy all of them for the cost of Dior palette( no offense to my Dior lovers...). haha!

Tuesday's Interview Look....

People who REALLY know me, know that POLISHED is not in my vocab. I'm usually big hair, big earrings, eyeshadow to the rafters, big purse, no where near conservative or polished. But, in order to get that PAPER, I clean up and I clean up well, even my mother agrees and.... she doesn't like ANYTHING I do.

So I went on my 1,o00,000 interview since becoming unemployed( no, seriously, its like number #25 or something, that's another story, maybe for Fatback & Sushi, eh?) and this my F.O.T.D.

I even did a boring ass French Manicure to match...actually I liked the French...it just needs jazzing up:) ( N.O.T.D. idea perhaps????)

( need to do my brows...*sigh*) I used one of my Santee palettes and mascara and blah blah blah...I didn't write any of it down.

Hair bunned. simple jewelry. black suit......

Super-Duper Korres Finds!!....

I was bumping around the 'Burg last week and dipped into Marshalls to see what was good in their Beauty section. Even though were TWO people stocking the beauty section...it was beginning to look like a 'Fail' til' I saw...

Korres Body Butter in Yoghurt

Oh Gah!! I've looking for this Korres Body Butter FOREVER. It has a unique smell. I can't put my finger on it but it reminds me of a hair moisturizer with a powdery dry down. I know that doesn't sounds very good, but when you put it on, its smells AMAZING....


Now I have Fig, Quince, and a small tube of Guava...currently hunting a big thing of Guava...:)

I also went over the new TJMAXX in the 'Burg( it ain't new, they just moved it...but it looks 'newer' inside in the 'new' location lol!) and rolled up on Korres Body Milk in Vanilla Cinnamon and Bitter Almond Shower gel....

For $1 a piece!!! AMEN!!!I love Vanilla Cinnamon Body Milk. It's perfect for the fall/winter and the Bitter Almond shower gel rocks in sudsy glory...sigh....I love finding great beauty buys!!!
