I Hit Pan On...

Hey hey hey! sooo I have some stuff to share with y'all! I have picked out some stuff to use up or hit pan on and I thought I could tell what I have accomplished! So lets go!

I have hit pan on almost ever single shade in my L.A. Colors palette Cafe Au Lait. I just have the first of the bottom row to hit pan on!

Also the light color in Maybelline's duo Browntones has had the honor of showing its pan to my eyeball! The last is a color in my Profusion pallete 03 and I am pretty sure that is it. I am working on a shimmery white in the same palette and a pinky brown in my 04 palette. One thing that will be hard to hit pan on will be my ELF quads in Blue Moon and Drama. Then I have used plenty of my Elf single in Pink Ice but have been focusing on using up the lower left color of my Cafe Au Lait palette. It is so pigmented, has practically no fall out and doesn't look the best on me!!!! How do I use it? It looks pumpkin orange on my eye...But My NYC Lip Tin in Angel Kiss has almost hit pan. I keep on almost hitting pan, using it once, and then the pan disappears. :(  So far I have been able to get Christmas presents with money!!!! :) Luv y'all!

Haul-16 I'm Not Spoiled!

Trust me I know it looks like I get anything I want or have a large income but I don't! My mommy was nice enough to get me some stuff just because it was cheap or I needed it! An this is accumulative! I did not buy all of this at once!!!!! :P

Face: Sam's Club; Walmart; Safeway

• Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Sunblock in SPF 55 Kit-$14: This came with Two full sized sunblocks, a lip balm, and a mini sunblock. My mom said she would get me the sunblock because it was essential and considering that usually one full size is $14-15!
• Neutrogena Oil-Free Pink Grapefruit Scrub-$9: Now this comes with a lip gloss and 3 more ounces than the $7 one. I thought that it was a great investment.
• Nivea Kiss of Smoothness Lip Balm-$1: This is always $3 and it was on sale so I purchased it and cant wait to try it out!

Books: My mom got these because a. they were on sale for really cheap and b. They were needed for school. Barnes and Noble

• Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte-$8: This was a book that my mom has read twice. The book itself is 524 pages long.
• A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens-$8: I thought that the cover looked interesting and I realized it was from Charles Dickens so I asked my mom for it and she said yes but just because they are school books! The book is 372 pages long so not very long but reasonable.
• Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen-FREE:There was a Buy 2 get 1 free deal so now I have my very own copy. My mom has read this 3 going on 4 times. It is 375 pages so it is not long.

Other: Target; Walmart

• ELF Studio Couture Brush-$3: This is my holy grail brush. 'Nuff said.
• ELF Eyelash Curler-$1: My other one lost its sponge so now I have two!
• Heart Stickers-$.75: CLEARANCE!

I cant think of anything else so I think this is it! I will have another Accomplished Item up sometime soon! luv y'all!

OMG! No More Makeup?!?!?

Thats right people. I am not going to buy any makeup for 9-12 months! I started the first of this month and forgot to tel you...But my mom and besties don't think that I can pull this off, so I guess I can prove them wrong...lol So I will explain what I may and may not buy.

May Buy: I can still buy stuff like nail polish (not makeup), hair products (not makeup), and tools of any sort. I will accept gifts and stuff (not that I am asking) because I don't want to be rude. I may also buy lip balm and skin care.

May Not Buy: makeup as in lipsticks, lipgloss, primers, mascara (Ikd how this will work; both of mine are 2 months old.....), eyebrow stuff, eyeliner, etc. Ummm...Soooo....Yeeeaahh....lol

So this is my idea and it started September 1 but I kept on forgetting to post it! luv yall

Haul 15-Artist Stuff

Here is the first haul that I have done in AGES!!! So today I went to Michael's and got some awesome art supplies!

First I got some cork. The peices are shaped like flowers and I thought that I could do something interesting with it! It was on sale for 79 cents! To good of a deal to give up.

Then I went in to the store and got what I was looking for...I was looking for a kneadable earaser for my art class and I found a couple different ones. First I found a small earaser for about $1.69. Then I found one that was three times the size for only $2.00. Then my mom found a three pack for $2.50 that had the following: the small kneadable earaser, a cube of gum earaser for graphite pencil, and a third that was a plastic earaser for graphic and colored pencil. I was so happy to find this because it was a great deal!

Then I got some blending stumps: 2 large, 2 small, and 2 different kinds of medium. These are very nice and were only $2.29!

Hope yall enjoyed! <3

Make the Most of Your: Mascara

How to Make the Most of Your Mascara:

   If your mascara is 3 months old but there is till a lot left in the tube, go ahead a use it but not from root to tip.  You can apply it on just the upper thirds of your lashes so it does not touch your skin. This is what i did today and my eye pain has gone away! so if you are like me and dont want to buy a new mascara, especially if you promised yourself that you would not buy makeup for 8-9 months, then this tip will definatlly help you save that cash! Make sure you try this with the more high end and department store brand so that you save A LOT! luv you giis! Tell me what to do in the comments!

Nail Polish Trick

Do you have trouble getting glitter polish off of your nails? Still want that full glitter affect? Have a cream nail polish that just will not stick? Well here is your answer!

1. Put on a base coat.



2. Apply on the most thin but mostly solid color of a horrible nail polish on your nail. After it has dried, apply one more but not a third.



3. Put on as many glitter polish coats onto the nail for a cool new color, easier take off and less polish wasting (not to mention money!)



4. Finish off with a nice top coat and let dry completely!

Suggestions:

• Revlon-Pink Ice w/ Sinful Colors-I Miss You



• Revlon-Cherries in the Snow w/ Wet n Wild-Party with 6 Glitters



• Revlon-Winter Skies w/ Sally Hanson-Celeb City

Luv yall!

Review: L.A.Colors Palette in Cafe au Lait

Rating: 10/10
OMG! This is the most awesome palette ever!!!!!  First, its only $1 at the dollar store.  Second, it is soooo pigmented!  Third, there are 6 amazing colors!
I was watching ittybittyannie on YouTube.  She did a drugstore starter kit and this pallete was mentioned.  So I got to the dollar store, pick it up and swatch it.  "OMG! Mom, look at this!" is what I said.  She looked and said that it was truely amazing for $1!  So there are 6 different eyeshadows to that means that each one is less than 17 cents per eyeshadow.  One pan is a square.  They are about the size of a penny with the added corners.  They are about as pigmented as the Wet 'n' Wild but not as powdery. Now the colors are all beautiful.
Top Row: First(left to right): beigey, cream, whiteish color.  It is very satiny but is the most matte and least pigmented of them all. Second: pinky, beige satin color. This is my favorite out of them all and am almost done with the whole pan. Third: orange, beigey pink.  This is the least used color but is so pretty.  it is a little to orange for me but I can wear it some times.
Bottom Row: First(left to right): orangy brown with gold.  Very shimmery but I can wear sometimes.  Second: this is just a shimmery brown with a little gold but it is so pretty!  I use this the second most.  Third: purpley, taupey, with gold shimmer.  This is the most unique color in the whole pallete! I love how this looks!
These eyeshadows also have a great staying power! they have never creased or faded.  I think that this is better than most of my eyeshadows!
Well I really hope that you guys enjoy this and I hope you try this out!  I can't wait to get the colorful ones!

Review: Hello Hydration Conditioner Herbal Essences

Hello Hydration Conditioner but Herbal Essences: 6/10

Claims: Hydrating, manageable, silky and smooth. Sadly this did not live up to my or their expectations! While my hair may be a little hydrated, i do not think that this made my hair smooth, manageable, or silky. i still have to use a serum to make my hair smooth and silky and manageable including other things. Points-0/2

Scent: I love the scent because it smells exactly like the shampoo! Points-2/2

Texture of Product: this product feels like a creamy and silky lotion! i love how it feels in my hair and it rinses really well without any residue. Points-2/2

Texture of Hair: my hair sadly does not feel anything like the product and does not really leave my hair too conditioned. the only way to use this to get moisture is to let it sit in your hair for at least 5 minutes. Mostly it works as a detangler. nevertheless, i can work with it. Points-1/2

Performance: ummmm...like i said i did not like it for a conditioner, but you can work with it by using it as a leave in conditioner or just a detangler. Points-1/2

Luv You Guys and i hope you enjoyed! Look forward to my Drama Clean Shampoo Review! Plus make sure you leave a request for anything! ~~Strawberrie

Review: Hello Hydration Shampoo Herbal Essences

Hello Hydration Shampoo: 8/10

Claims: Leaves hair silky, supple, and replenished--I thought that my hair was definitely silky and replenished especially when I use the conditioner. That gets 2 points for me!


Scent: Orchid and Coconut Milk--I can smell a lot of coconut, some orchid and I little milk. I am kind of glad that the milk scent is not very strong and the coconut is VERY strong! if you do not like strong scents don't buy this. Although i love this and i give it 2 points.

Performance: This is very bubbly. It lathers up so nicely but it can be very gloppy. I have to use two quarter size amounts. One i use on the top half of my hair and the other amount on my bottom half. then I squeeze it though my hair. Sadly I still have to use baking soda to get the build up out so i have to give this a one.

Texture of Product: This is the most this thing i have ever had. I love it because it feels like there is silk inside of the shampoo itself. Although, it can be too thick like i said but the over all texture was amazing and deserves two points.

Texture of Hair: I really wanted very silky and very supple hair while this did not give me what i wanted i still have to use a serum and conditioner afterwards. It was soft but not as much as i wanted. I give it one point.


Hope you guys like! Look forward to my conditioner review soon! Strawberrie

SHOPPING!

so i went shopping to day and i went to home depot. i was looking for a wooden, two step ladder that i could spray paint HOT PINK and use as a nightstand. but the only one they had there was a metal and plastic one that was $30!!! i am going to get more contacts tomorrow and i am also going to Hobby Lobby to see if they have it because they have virtually everything possible! i went to Walmart but i could not find a gold nail polish which is what i need. does anyone know where to get gold nail polish??? but i found out that Cover Girl single eye shadows are a pretty good deal because it is $3.14 for about 6+ grams! i cant wait until i can get one+. it is b&bw hello yellow sale and i am going to try to get either a fragrance or some lip glosses. i would get one sheer, one brown and one some other opaque color. but that is the end of my ramble. love u

strawberrie =)

Earth Stuff and Cool Facts

Hey guys! listen, i hav a cool fact for people who are tight on money like me. okay so everyone loves solar powered things. it turns out that when you get solar power for your house, i feeds your meter! you are basicly getting free power and helping the enviroment. it only is 1% intrest so it pays off in a few years instead if MANY! i really hope that that helps.

i also got a new stove and microwave and i'll show you a.s.a.p.. my bro is doing well in swim lessons and just finished his first weak!

so does anyone like to read? i love to read and i am reading the book called In Mozart's Shadow: His Sister's Story. it is a really good book and it has very interesting facts that not a lot of people know. it is a book for teens and appeals to girls. the last thing io will say is that it is written by Carolyn Meyer. =)
