FILMING FAILURE

So I was going to do another tutorial for you guys today, but then the camera died & was also running out of memory... I was trying to film with my sister in law's Canon EOS Rebel T3. Since the tutorial didn't work out, I'll just think of something else to film since I'm in the mood and I didn't look pretty for no reason... LOL... Anyways. : )))) Look for new upload later on YouTube!  :))

KEY TO MY HEART

We were taking photos today and out of the blue he attacked me with a hug so I put one arm around him & snapped a photo of us. : ))) I love this man right here sooo much!! He's done sooo much for me and the greatest thing he did was brought me back to who I really am like before. I been through ups & down in my past relationship that made me lose who I was.... Thanks to him, I am myself and a better person. I love you Kong Yang. 2 years + <3

SOME PHOTOS FROM HOLIDAY GLAM W/ DARK LIPS TUTORIAL : ))




Comments

Sorry for not replying back to any of the comments some you guys left.... I was going through my blog & now just found an easier way to see the comments. I'll be getting back to you guys more now! : )

MAKEUP STORAGE

So I was cleaning my makeup yesterday and decided to take a picture of it. I have my hairspray, heat protector and my sigma brushes that I won from BeautySplurge awhile back on the far left. I have my face and eye brushes divided into two different jars. Behind my brushes are my pallets. I have my 120 pallet from BF-Beauty, a Ross pallet, Elf and my Urban Decay Naked pallet. In my little drawer, I store all my lip products in the top, single eyeshadows and sharpener's in the middle one, and miscellaneous in the bottom. On top of that I have my perfume, hand sanitation, EOS lip balm and lotions. In the bigger bin, I have eyes products from mascara, primers, eyeliners, false lashes, glue and concealers. Middle drawer I store my smaller pallets like quads, blushes and bronzers. Bottom drawer is where all my foundation, moisturizers, and sponges are located. : ))) 

NEW MAKEUP

My boyfriend & I went to WalMart and Fred Meyers today so this is what I purchased. I should of bought the mascara last week when it was on sale for $4 something.... it was no longer on sale so I spent $5 on it.... -.- On the other hand the Maybelline Mouse Foundation was on sale for $5 something when it's originally $7. I hope it works for me and I hope the color matches me too.... I tried looking for those Wet N' Wild pallet at WalMart but they did not have any. So I went to Fred Meyers afterwards and got two of them. It was buy one and get one for 50% off. It retailed for $4.99 at Freddy's so I got the other one for $2. I'm really excited to try them out & it's been sooo long since I've bought makeup! I will be doing some looks with these two pallets soon! : )))

NEW BOOTS! : ))

Not the best photo of it, but I'll definitely re-take it when I wear them. I got these at Sears last Thursday when I went shopping with my both of my sister in laws! : ))) These originally were $75 something, but they were on sale for $24.99 so I paid around almost $30 bucks for them. I love it! What's unique about them is that instead of having the zipper on the inside, it's on the outside. That's what I love about it most because it gives the boot an more edgy look and I also been wanting to get boots that are this color & texture. I don't buy ever buy shoes because they can be spendy, but this is the first pair of boots I bought since a long long long time. I love them! : )))) 

NAKED PALLET 2

I can't wait to get one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At first I wasn't too much about it, but hearing and seeing reviews on it definitely got me into wanting one! I don't understand why they didn't release before Christmas such as at the stores so it'll be easier to purchase one. Now I have to wait till next month to get one of these goodies. I love all the colors & I already know it'll be one of my favorite pallet. I use my Naked pallet 1 more than anything whenever I do wear makeup. Can't wait!!! : )))))))))))))

SIMPLE HOLIDAY GLAM W/ DARK LIPS

So this was one of the looks I decided that will be great for the holidays. I wanted to focus more on the lips than the eyes so I used Urban Decay's Naked pallet to create a soft somewhat shimmery for the eyes. For the lips I used Maybelline's "Pink Of Me" lipstick to top it off. I don't ever wear dark lipstick, but I absolutely love this one and it inspired me to buy more dark lipstick colors. The lipstick color is a plum type of color. It's not too dark or too light, but just perfect for all skin types. I hope you guys like this look & I will be doing more holidays tutorials. :))) 
PRODUCTS I USED: 


COAT HANGER! :))

Look what my sister in law bought me!! : ))) It's soo funny because she thought I told her that I been wanting a coat hanger when I meant I wanted a new coat!! So she purchased this for me at Ross. I do not know how much it costs because she took off the tag. Anyways, I love it!!! Isn't it sooo cute?! I need to buy myself a writing table and start fixing up my room. She purchased me some circle mirrors awhile back and I never hung it up yet because I still need to arrange my room. I can't wait to find the time to start decorating my room and making it more comfortable & me! :)) 

ACNE TREATMENT

This is my favorite and to-go treatment I use when I breakout. This product was bought from my sister in Minnesota at a flea market. I do not know where else you can find it but if you guys do know, please let me know! I think this product is about $14 or so. You have to store this in the refrigerator, I'm not sure why but that is what it says on the box. It doesn't matter how many times you use it, I usually put it on at night before I go to bed or whenever I am just home, I apply it on. This is by far the only acne treatment that I have used and worked for me and I love it! :))

My Foundation Routine.

This video was recorded awhile back, but this is all my face products I wear.
1. Maybelline Fit Me Liquid 125-130
2. Maybelline Fit Me Powder 125-130
3. Hard Candy Glamofflauge (light)
4. Rimmel brow pencil (it's a light brown shade)
5. E.L.F. Bronzer (Sun Kissed)
6. E.L.F. Blush ( Candid Coral)
7. E.O.S. Lip Balm

EOS Lip Balm

EOS Lip Balm are my absolute favorite lip treatment!!! The only one I've tried so far is the red one. This lip balm smells super good and works great!! I've used this product for probably a year now and it's the only thing that had worked for me. I still have my first one because I don't use it as much now, but I will need to get a new one soon. It was a year ago that my lips became very chap and started to crack a lot... Nobody wants chapped lips.... it's not attracting.... I tried soo many things from chapstick, Neosporin lip treatment, and this other product but I don't remember what it is called.... None of those worked for me and I finally decided to give the EOS a try and just days later, my lips were no longer chappy or cracking anymore. If you are looking for a great treatment for chap lips, I really recommend this product because it works wonders! This product retails about $2.98 at WalMart, but it only has the yellow & red flavor. I don't really care what flavor it is but if I can get it at WalMart for a cheaper price instead of paying an extra dollar at ULTA to get one of these, I rather go to WalMart. I don't like to spend extra since I don't have a job, so I watch my budget. Anyways, EOS lip balms works wonder and a great price if you need to heal your chappy lips! : )))

Urban Decay Naked Pallet

I love this pallet!! This is the most expensive pallet I ever purchased! I’m a drug store girl because I don’t have a job yet, so I’m not always going to spend $50 to $100 worth of makeup when I can get so much more other things for that amount of money. When this pallet came out, it was always out of stocked!! Everyone on my YouTube subscriptions was raving about how much they loved it. I really wanted one because the colors were absolutely gorgeous and they were all neutral colors meaning pallet was great for everyday looks. This pallet comes with a mini size primer potion. Sadly, every time I went to Sephora or ULTA it was always out of stock! When I had finally got my hands on it, the price went up! It wasn’t $44 dollars no more, it was $48!!! So I’d basically paid $50 dollars for it, but it was worth it to me because I use it everyday! It also came with three other free minis Urban Decay products; two lip gloss and one single eye shadow. Overall, this pallet is great for anyone!

Hard Candy Glamofflauge Concealer

 I have been searching for a good concealer for a very long time and this one is by far the best one I’ve came across to. I purchase this product at Wal-Mart for only $6.00. The price for this product is very affordable and it also comes with a small concealer pencil. The packing is super cute!! It comes in a squeezing tube; the color of the font is black and pink. At the end of the tube it has a vintage design to it which I absolutely love!  I’ve owned mine for about three months now and it’s still full. It looks like I’ve barely even used it. This product does not require a huge amount of it because its coverage is very good. A lot goes a long way! It’s also very easy to blend with your skin and I usually use a dabbing motion when I apply it under my eyes.  If you are searching for a good concealer to help cover your dark circles, pimples and blemishes, I really recommend this product. The only down thing about this product is that it only comes in three different shades which are light, medium and tan. Besides that, it’s a good product that anyone could afford. It lasts a very long time and it’ll take me awhile before I even need to buy a new one.

    EOS Lip Balm

    I'm loving it!! :D I love the packaging too! It's soo cute that I keep on applying it on my lips! It's okay though. : ) I really need it too. My lips get's soo chappy and crummy during the cold seasons. I hate it. -___-

    Hard Candy Glam of flauge concealer heads up.

    So far, I love this product! : ) It covers up very well! You actually have a lot of product in the tube it comes in. Also, a little bit of it goes a long way!! I use such a small amount and it already covers all the spots that I need it to. : ) I will be doing a review on it in the next few weeks. I definitely recommend this concealer. : ) I really wanted the Kat Von D concealer, but it's just too much to afford for me. The Hard Candy one is affordable to anyone and covers up well. : )

    Video Haul To Come. : )

    Just a head's up, I will be doing another video haul. : ) I know it seems like I go shopping so much, but I just like to do little hauls & get them over with, so I don't have to go searching for all my products if I did a collective haul. That is just too much work! I will do my haul when I receive my Sigma brushes from BeautSplurge! :D I can hardly wait for them! : ) The products I will be showing are from Sigma, WalMart, Forever21 & Rue21. : ) I will do a review on the Hard Candy Concealer maybe next month of so. : )

    Babe, I just want you to know that I love you so much!! I can't wait till next month to be our one year and a half anniversary!! It's only three weeks away and we'd just had our one year and five months last Saturday. It amazes me how long we've been down this road through the thick and thin. All those times you've put up with my bad and good attitudes. I can't thank you enough!! Sometimes, I get so caught up with things that I forget to tell you how much I love you and appreciate you. I usually remember how much I love you when we don't have any fights and everything is going well. Babe, I am just soo damn thankful and grateful to have you in my life!!! You've really complete me! You've done soo much and gave me soo much things, but the best thing you've given me is your love. I can see our future together. When I think about it, I can hardly wait to start it, but I know we still have a lot of time and things to do before we even take that step. I love you and remember that I will never seperate from you! You mean sooo much to me!! I wish I can just hold you soo tight right now! Thank God for sending you my way because you are perfect for me. I love you Babe.

    xoxo, Christo. <3

    Concealer & EOS Lip balm!

    Went to WalMart today and my sister in law purchased these two items for me! I'm soo happy that now I have a concealer!!! I'm really excited to try it out! : ) I'm hoping to do a foundation routine, but not any time soon since I will be trying out this new concealer. Also, I've been trying to find an EOS Lip Balm, but didn't really know where to find it. So while my sister in law and I were going to pay, I spotted the lip balms!! I was soo happy! I just picked out the pink one because I didn't want to buy too many yet. I will probably end up buying the other two colors later down the road. Anyways, I'm happy with the products!
    Concealer was $6.00 and the lip balm was $2 something.
