-We found love - Rihanna

Hello everyone :)

Oh My Gosh, it feels like I haven’t done a haul in forever! Actually.. well.. I haven’t really shopped all that much lately. Ever since I moved, all I’ve been buying are: books, groceries, & house supplies/decors! But I do buy some stuff for myself here and there ♥

Any who, before the “haul;” Here is my outfit of the day ♥ (08/30/10)

Top: H&M, Bandage Skirt: Victoria’s Secret PINK

So what do you guys think of my outfit? hehe Video will be posted at the end of this post ♥ Alright, so onto the “haul” part!… First thing I bought is this Remington Hair Dryer for only $16.99 (Or was it $15.99?) @ Target! Cheap right???

This hair dryer is soo nice! (well so far.. I’ve only used it for 3 days) But I love it already. It’s not too hot for my hair and it dries my hair fast and leaves it soft and not frizzy. I love it! ♥ Next are these Bumpits! Seriously a waste of money! I hate this… though I know some people who loves it.. it’s just not for me!

Same day I bought the Bumpits, I went to Shopko and saw that they were having a HUGE SALE on their accessories :) ♥ So I headed over to the scarves section and spotted these cuties! I totally love ‘em.. though the little “ball” things at the end are kinda weird… LOL I really like the fabric though and these should be pretty warm for winter ♥ Ps. These were on SALE for $2.49 Each!!! Awesome deal right!?

Lastly, I bought the HerStyler Grande Curling Iron last Thursday ♥ And even though I just got it today.. I LOVE IT ALREADY!!! First time using it.. omg, what excitement! HAHA I love love how it curls :) Definitely expect a tutorial with these babies! ♥ (PS. This is my wonderful seller. *Fast Response + Fast Shipping*)

And that’s all for now :) I’m currently enjoying life.. and keeping busy with school. ♥ I’m still in need of a job so.. yes, I’m still job hunting *huhu* Hopefully I find one soon! Any who, I did film another haul video last weekend (with beauty products) so I’ll have that up sometime either tomorrow or Wednesday ♥ Take care and Good night loves!!!

PEACE&L♥VE!

School Supplies & Tips

1. Planner – I got mine from WalMart for only $4.00 :)
I love using planners! I write down everything.. from homework, to-do list, special dates, EVERYTHING! It’s really helpful to have and keeps you organize and will definitely help you get things done ON TIME ♥ (Now I know planners aren’t for everyone… but no worries, I have other tips for you!)

2. Sticky Notes/Post Its! – You can get these anywhere, WalMart is where I got mine.
If planners aren’t for you, try having these. Just stick it wherever you need to remember things :) It’s as easy as that! Get the colorful ones too so they stand out! ♥

3. Pencil Cases – I got mine from KMart but I do remember seeing this at WalMart as well :)
Now this is very very convenient to have! I love using this for my special drawing pencils and pens so they won’t get damaged. I like these plastic ones too (instead of the fabric) only because these don’t break as easily. (No worrying about the zipper getting stuck or the stitching coming out and ripping.)

4. Makeup Bags – Mine is from Estee Lauder.
If you have other school supplies, or just little trinkets and won’t fit in your pencil case or anywhere else; or you just don’t want it floating around in your backpack/handbag. It’s best to get a pouch or just a makeup bag and put all that stuff in there! Not only does it make it easier to grab but also helps your bag be organize and clean. Plus, you won’t loose stuff that easy then :)

5. Notebooks – From WalMart.
Now for me, I don’t buy those expensive nice looking notebooks for there’s no need for that :/ I suggest buying the cheap ones since it does the same job :) Plus you SAVE MONEY!

6. Binders – From WalMart.
Before buying a binder.. think first. Are you gonna use it for just one class or two classes? Make sure to buy the binders that has pockets in the inside for more storage. (That’s the MOST important thing!) Also, I suggest buying the cheap ones for it does the same job :) (I always get the $1.00 ones? and I’ve had it for 2 years now!)

7. Folders – From WalMart.
Once again, I just buy the cheap ones :) But when buying folders, go for the “plastic” ones! They last longer (for they don’t rip); and make sure they have the 3 binder wholes on the side, so you can put them in your binder :)

8. Folder Dividers for Binders – From WalMart.
These are a MUST have if you have a binder! Even if you’re not using your binder for two classes, these are still very handy :) It gives you more storage space and keeps papers organize.

9. Pencils or Mechanical Pencils – From WalMart.
I rarely use pencils, but I suggest buying Mechanical Pencils :) They are more convenient and the lead refills are pretty cheap nowadays. ♥

10. Pens – From WalMart.
I love pens :) I usually buy the packs! I always have black, blue, and red. Just in case my teacher is picky about colors… and such.

11. Highlighters – From WalMart.
I love love love highlighters! These are a must have!!! If you’re a note taker lover, then you must have these. Highlighting certain things/important things in your notes helps you make studying easier :)

Thank you!!!

This blog post is gonna be about the FACE BRUSHES that C.P.C. Cosmetics has sent me a couple of weeks ago. I did an Initial Review a week ago, so make sure you check that out first ♥

Hope you guys like this and found it helpful :)

Overall

Pros:
- Nice wooden handles
- Soft bristles
- Applies products very well

Cons:
- Black dye washes out
- Shedding

Thoughts: Overall, I think these brushes are worth it. The brushes are very well made and looks very sleek (very identical to MAC brushes). The bristles are extremely soft and it applies the products very well. The only downfalls on these brushes is that the black dye (with the brushes that has “black” bristles) washes out during the first couple times of washing it and the unfortunate shedding. Other than that, these brushes are fantastic!

C.P.C. 134 Large Powder Brush

Thoughts: I really like this brush. The size is perfect, great for using when setting your foundation with powder and for retouches. The bristles are soft and dense for great application. The one thing that keeps me from using this is the shedding.

C.P.C. 150 Powder Brush

Thoughts: This brush is identical to the 134 brush, and because of that… I rarely use it. Even though this one is smaller than the 134, it sheds more of some reason.

C.P.C. 187 Duo Fibre Brush

Thoughts: I hate it, I hate it, I hate it! Since I use “flat tops/stippling brushes” for applying LIQUID FOUNDATION, the shedding is just unbarable! I definitely can NOT stand the shedding! So, I’ve only used this brush 2 or 3 times and I can not say that I love/like it. Now, I can’t really compare it with my other stippling brushes… since the ones that I own from Coastal Scents, sheds like crazy also…

Other than the shedding, the brush is really dense at the bottom and soft on the top. It would definitely be the perfect stippling brush if it didn’t shed at all :(

C.P.C. 129 Powder/Blush Brush

Thoughts: I love this brush! It is perfect!!! The bristles are soft and dense for great application; and it DOES NOT shed!

C.P.C. 168 Large Angled Contour Brush

Thoughts: Another one of my favorites! This one did shed at first, but it has stopped after washing it. It has soft and dense bristles, perfect for contouring; but I do wish it’s bigger.

C.P.C. 190 Foundation Brush

Thoughts: My first thought of this was, “Too flimsy/Not dense enough.” But after washing it… it’s not as flimsy anymore. Though it is thinner than my Revlon Foundation Brush, it still applies products really nicely. This brush is really good.
