NOTD - Rose Sage

Hello Everyone!!!

So today's NOTD is featuring Rose sage by Wet n Wild. Love the color :)








Looks pretty on its own ^_^
I used single coat of Aziza nail builder as a base coat (i don't have a base coat so i used this as a replacement ^_^)
Then 2 coats of Rose Sage by Wet n Wild....



Nail polish didn't chip or came off until the fourth day of me wearing it. On the fourth day, it chip only on my index finger but i decided to take it off. I think it works great considering the fact that i wasn't wearing a top coat :)..... The color was very opaque after 2 coats just like in the bottle.  

I hope you like it ..

Review & Swatches - ELF Matte Lip Color

Hello Lovelies,
So today I am doing the review and swatches for the ELF matte lipsticks. I know it’s been a while for those who requested it. The lipsticks are sold for $3 each but you can always use coupon code to save few bucks $$...

According to the company:
“This convenient jumbo sized lip pencil creates exact color application with twist up ease so you never have to sharpen. The pigment rich color glides on effortlessly and easily to provide long lasting matte color. The enriched Vitamin A, C & E formula moisturizes and hydrates lips for beautiful healthy looking lips.”
My thoughts:
I love the packaging. Almost like a marker or jumbo pencil for lips. Easy to apply and very precise. Color payoff is great, very opaque. I got them for $1.50 each, definitely a great bargain!!!$_$ I feel that using lip balm underneath would give a flawless application. Natural lipstick was a bit drying for me so I had to apply lip gloss over it. Others were ok!

Left to right: Praline, Natural, Coral and Tea Rose

     Now on to individual lip stick swatches...
Warm, Rich Red-Brown Shade




Nice Nude shade to add to your collection :)



Looks a bit drying

So, I applied ELF hypershine lipgloss in Honey over it...Looks Pretty :)


 Love this Coral shade :) (the bottom pink cap is very deceiving)




Looks very Similar to Natural lipstick
Tea Rose
Looks more Mauve-y

Here, looks more lilac-pink

Whether I would buy it: Definitely yes!! I love them and would recommend it. ELF added two new shades, so thinking of trying them as well..

Disclaimer: I have not given these products by anyone or the company mentioned, I bought these with my own money. I am not being paid to do this review; this is my personal and honest opinion.

XOXO

Haul – Dollar Store Finds

Hello Lovelies!!

I was looking to get tiny elastic bands in black. First, I went to the drug store but they were a bit pricey (I believe $5 or $6) for a pack of the same bands I wanted. So I thought I should try Dollar Store, they probably would have them for a fraction of the cost. Well, I did find those but with other interesting stuff. J

There was a separate aisle for beauty related products. Not much of makeup but other beauty stuff. There were some Elf products too; like powder brushes, eye-shadow brush, mascara, clear mascara, and lip glosses (all from their $1 line). There were other Makeup products by Aziza. A whole lot of jewellery stuff, Shampoo, moisturizing lotion, and etc. So I browse through the aisle and got myself few things.

What I got:

·         Pack of elastic bands

·         Pack of bobby pins

·         One Step Nail builder by Aziza

·         Blistex Regular SPF 15 lip balm

·         And 2 bracelets

So on to the pictures….
Btw, I bought the mascara from the drug store.

Bobby Pins and Elastic bands

AZIZA care one-step nail builder

Blistex SPF 15 lip balm in Regular (there were other ones too)

Some cute Bracelets

I love this pearl bracelet (it’s not real pearlL, but oh well)

Coral bracelet
So yeah, that’s what I found at my local Dollar store. I got all this for $6 + from dollar store, not bad eh!

Extra Super Lash mascara by Rimmel London in Black (I got this from the drug Store for $6 I think)
So that’s what I found at my local dollar store. Have you found anything interesting at your local dollar store?
