At home waxing!

I needed to get rid of my lip hair one day and I usually bleach the hair but my coworkers told me that waxing is a lot better because you don't even see the hair. I always thought it would grow back thicker and thicker...well to make a long story short, I went to Sally's to get wax and came across Surgi Wax Remover for face. Here's how to do it:

Here is what it comes with:

Put it in the microwave until it gets soft. (Read the instructions for the time for your microwave) Test it out on your skin before applying to the lip area.

Here's what it looks like after the microwave:


Here it is on!


Final conclusion:
I think it is a good process for a beginner and at home waxing. The only thing was it took multiple times to microwave it a total of like a minute extra than it said on the instructions. I was scared to pull it off myself knowing exactly when the pain was to come but it wasn't so bad! It cools to a hard plasticy like texture then you rip it off like a bandaid! Pulled the majority of the hair off my lip but not all because I was too scared! haha I would use this again though!

Swatches: Too Faced Glamour To Go (Fairy Edition)

With Flash:

Without Flash:

Just the eyeshadows

Just the blush, lipgloss, and bronzer:

Where to find & How much: $19.50 at Sephora

Review: This palette makes a great holiday gift because it comes with a little of everything you need to complete your face! This also makes a great traveling makeup palette so you don't have to pack so much makeup this is easy to grab and go. I do believe they could have choose the colors a little better because the majority of them are very light or dark, some more neutrals would have been nice but this is a great variety if you don't like too many neutrals! I have a first impressions review & tutorial going up soon on my YouTube account as well.

First impression: OH Makeup Wipes

Ole henriksen makeup wipes! I've actually had these for awhile in my makeup wipe drawer. I usually use either the kirkland brand or the up and up brand by target which ill probably do another post on those but anyways I ran out and I needed to take my makeup off somehow so I decided to open these and use it.

My first impression: the smell is a little too strong for me. It has this orange-y type scent that doesn't stay on your skin after but its still a little strong. They take off your makeup nicely but I don't know if its just the past makeup wipes but they seemed a little dry to the point where it feels weird and feels like I'm using just a tissue paper. And I just don't have that feeling of knowing all my makeup is off. I do, however, like that its all natural line so its better for the skin.

Would I buy them again? No, I don't think so. Ill go through this pack and that's about it.

Price:$ I can't remember right now but its around 15 which is more than I would spend since I use one a day. I got these at sephora.

My new love

Sometime last week I lost my tweezers which I don't know how because I always leave them at my makeup table, but I always misplace them and find them a few days later...but this time they were gone and nowhere to be found! I finally just decided to buy new ones because my eyebrows were getting out of control! I went to sephora to get the tweezerman tweezers because that's what I had before and I loveee them and I found these!! Howww cuteee! I absolutely love them and *knock on wood* won't lose these ones!

Swatches: Wet n Wild Single Shadows

In my recent trip to Walgreens on my search to find their holiday palettes (swatches will go up soon) I decided to try out a few of their permanent single shadows especially "Nutty" because cutegingerbread on twitter was raving how nice it was! When I went to Walgreens all Wet n Wild products were half off so I ended up getting these shadows for about a dollar! What a steal.






Review:
I've worn "Nutty" a few times the pigmentation on these shadows are really nice and they are super soft and creamy which make it super easy to not only blend but to apply on the lid. I HIGHLY recommend these shadows and be sure to check back for my holiday swatches as well!

Swatches: Urban Decay 24/7 Liner in Electric

I love these eyeliners because they have such a wide range of colors and they're really creamy so they can be used as a color base for an eyeshadow or for a pop of color if you're going to do a neutral eye they're so versatile!





Review:
If you have never tried these eyeliners before I highly suggest it! I love my 24/7 eyeliner in black but some say for their lids it's a little TOO creamy to the point where it smudges a little bit, I would say try it out for yourself and see! You might just find your holy grail eyeliner. Oh and these are waterproof too!
