I'm finally posting my bag. I know its late but from what I've heard I'm not the only one getting it late. Anyways this months bag was pretty decent and yet at the same time disappointing. I will elaborate more later when the time comes. Until then on to the goodies!

I received my brand badge prize from Influenster in the mail this weekend! If you don't remember I received a voxbox a few months back containing the Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation to test. After I finished my tasks I received my brand badge for Rimmel. Every brand badge holder was guaranteed a brand badge prize from Rimmel and here is what I received.

This months Julep was so great and had so many beautiful colors but I only picked up a few shades that I knew I didn't already have in my collection. My monthly box is usually the "It Girl" but I really wanted to try the eyeshadow palette that Julep offered this month so I upgraded to the "Classic With A Twist" box and "added on" a few polishes.
This months box was funny because I received my ship confirmation on Sunday and received my box on Monday.
Classic With A Twist had two polishes and the eyeshadow palette. The box also came with twist ties but my son lost them so I didn't even take a photo. The three polishes on the left are my add on polishes.
The eyeshadow palette I think is actually really nice and pretty pigmented. The texture is pretty smooth too, so I can not wait to try it out. The metallic burgundy shade is Jullian and the silvery green shade is Mia.
Two out of three shades were from the "It Girl" box. Ceila is the middle polish. Its a metallic mermaid color which is gorgeous! Evelyn is a vampy magenta purple which I think is great for fall. The blue shade came from the "Boho Glam" box but it's called Misti.
I've been on a major makeup kick for the past month so I thought I would get them out of the way so I can finally start digging in and trying them all out. ENJOY!
Yes I know I'm dressed like a bum. I filmed on Sunday so I didn't feel like getting all prettied up.

Hey guys! I did my makeup this past weekend but didn't get around to posting. I had a wedding to go to and it was memorial day weekend which I was spending with my family. I hope you guys will understand and forgive my late posting. I hope you guys enjoy it.
This is the look I ended up coming up with. It's just a really simple coral wash all over the lid, a red toned brown as a transition color, and a dark grey almost black color in the outer corner. I put a golden bronze color under my inner corner and smudged the same grey/black color on the outer corners under my eye.

This is the ELF 24K 32 piece eyeshadow palette that I used. I haven't used this since I purchased it other than swatch it but I'm happy I finally decided to use it. The quality of this palette is a lot better than the normal big palettes ELF sells. This was a limited edition palette so you probably won't be able to purchased this anymore. I will be posting a full review with swatches up soon so stay tuned.
I received my March Ipsy bag yesterday but didn't have time to post on here so here it is.
I like this months theme for the bags. Super cute design! The theme of this months bag is "THE GREAT ESCAPE".
ALL THE GOODIES!
La Fresh makeup remover wipes which I'm not a fan of wipes. I tend to not use this method on my eyes even if it is the quickest way to remove makeup. I'd rather not have premature wrinkles and take my time removing my makeup.
Juice Beauty hydrating mist. My sister in law used this after she received it and she said it burned. I'm kind of hesitant to try this so if you've already used this and it didn't burn you please do tell me.
GLAMRX magnetic palette. When I saw the preview for this I thought it was going to be big but it's really small and fit in the palm of my hand.
Yaby eyeshadows in azalea petal which is the darker eyeshadow and seashell which is the lighter of the two colors.
Pictured above is just to give you a size comparison of the shadows and the size of the magnetic palette. As you can see the palette is pretty small and so are the eyeshadows. The two bigger eyeshadows are the sizes of MAC shadows so that should give you a pretty good comparison of how big or small everything is. I'm still pretty impressed with everything especially when I only paid $10 for all of this.
