So today I went to like 3 different drugstores to find the wet'wild holiday palettes, and guess what I got?
ZILCH! one of the girls at walgreens almost laughed at me for asking her if they were in stock?! Rite -Aid never even got em' at least the one I go to! and the CVS near me is so small they harldy even have ANY makeup at all! So If you find em' grab em quick before the girl behind you does or even send me one for x-mas pretty pleeeease?? haha in the meanwhile I'll leave you with this very helpful video from a friend of mine on youtube.

DONUTS & NAILPOLISH...WHAAT?
Yesterday me and my little son went out for donuts, I know not the most exciting thing in the world but for some reason I totally forgot how good donuts are! hahahhhha
Anyway afterwards we went on a little stroll through the neighborhood and went to my local Sally's beauty supply store, which I dont know if it's just me but I hate the people that work there! They're rude as hell, don't know what they're talking about at all just overall dont like going there anymore but I wanted to buy the China Glaze X-mas nailpolishes to do a giveaway on twitter. So they were pretty much sold out of the cute colors- only ugly ones left- and not to mention they cost $8.00 per bottle which is RIDIC! I get mine for $3.50 usually.So ended up walking further to a random nail supply in the hood hahaha and got two bottles of the OPI Burlesque collection polishes! YAY ME!
You should soooooooooooo pick these up! or maybe you'll get lucky for christmas..........hmmm..lol^_^

ELF $5 HOLIDAY PALETTE
Hey there pretty girls so this is gonna be a mini review of the ELF HOLIDAY PALETTE that I got at target for $5 in the beginning of the month. First off let me say this is a great stocking stuffer or x-mas present if your on a budget! having never tried ELF eyeshadows before I wasn't expecting much, but it was better than I expected. The weird thing about it is that the eyeshadows are really hit n' miss. Which means some are really nice and some dont even register on the pigmentation scale.
Here are some swatches in no particular order:
Pros: good mix of colors/variety, decent quality, super affordable, sleek packaging, convenient for travel( or at least more convenient than that massive 120 palette) great for beginners as well!
Cons: lackluster pigmentation on a few of the eyeshadows, not something worth buying if you already own a lot of palettes!
Overall I honestly think this palette is great for everyday because the eyeshadows have enough pigment in them that you dont have to sit there and blend for 10 minutes.
Keep in mind if you already own a bunch of eyeshadows this is not something you need to rush out and buy but if It sounds like it would come in handy give it a try and let me know what ya' think!
peace and blessings- Evelyn ....ooh i put my real name this time hahaha

NICKI MINAJ & MAC COLLAB
So yesterday I was reading some blogs and came across one that said Nicki Minaj ( the female rapper-for those of you living under a rock) has done a collaboration with MAC Cosmetics to launch a lipstick called Pink Friday to coincide with the release of her debut album by the same name. The lipstick is a brand new, limited edition shade of pink of course! and it will be available every friday from November 26 through December 17. It will be available online only @ www.maccosmetics.com.
On a side note did any of you watch the American Music Awards? I did! it was pretty awful. hahahaha. Here's what Nicki wore.
Altough I understand the concept of this dress as an art-piece and I actuaaly like the gold ribcage part the bottom seems so busy and kinda like a christmas tree with all the details and ornaments. But hey would you rather see her in this or a boring black dress? Personally I like her style as an artist.
So tell me Harajuku Barbies are you going to get the lipstick? I think I am! or are you not a Nicki Minaj fan? Love you guys!-Fizzy
The lipstick finish is a Satin and is described as a bright creamy pink. It costs $14.50

Sephora Goodies!
So this is a bit overdue,but here are the crap-load of pics I took from the stuff i bought from the friends and family sale that sephora had a while back. :)
This is my first ever NARS eyeshadow, LET ME TELL YOU GUYS I AM IN LOVE!
As you can see,I didn't go too crazy just cuz there was a sale the way I see it, something is always on sale anyway lol.
this little box is a palette that stores about 49 eyeshadows on each side as well as 35 lip-glosses on each side.In the middle it holds 3 "blushes" altough the one on the far left looks like a bronzer to me.
It also comes with 5 pencils that consist of 3 of them being eyeliners and 2 being lipliners. Below the pencils are 6 "creme eyeliners" again I put quotations because from what I can tell the consistency on these are more of an eyeshadow base,think NYX JUMBO EYESHADOW PENCILS but less thick. And last but not least it comes with a mini mascara and some disposable brushes.
THIS PICTURE WAS TAKEN AT NIGHT AND REALLY DOES THE DUO BY THE NAME "CHEYENNE" NO JUSTICE! LOL:)
THE BODY BUTTER WAS SOMETHING I HAD HEARD A "BEAUTY GURU" BY THE NAME OF ANDREA'S CHOICE (WHO I MET THIS YEAR AT IMATS) MENTION AS HER FAVORITE. Sorry about the all-caps i had it on and didnt want to re-write the sentence hahaha. Anyway it's called Tuscan Blood Orange by PACIFICA. I really like it! the last pic are my 3 free samples, a kate somerville SPF serum, A mattyfying lotion and a pucci perfume sample,I havent tried em out yet. So all in all I ended up paying about 35 bucks for everything,which is crazy because just the sephora pallette alone costs $48. AWESOME:p
