The Eyes Have It



I usually never buy high-end eye products (besides eyeshadow) since I switch my mascara up every three months or so. I went into Sephora looking for the NAKED palette and they were sold out. I have had mixed thoughts about buying this since so many of the shadows looked shimmery to me, but I am succumbing to the hype and I am going to get it eventually, maybe on Beauty.com.

Instead, I decided to at least buy some eye products like the Urban Decay Primer Potion once and for all! My L'oreal Decrease was helping me out, but it's already running out! I only swatched the UD Primer Potion on my hand and wow, it was pretty fabulous, it wouldn't budge. Also a very long, long time ago, when I was 20 or so I mean :) I bought some Lancome creme blush and got a gift with purchase. In it was a Definicils mascara. It was so tiny, but I loved that little thing to death. I decided to try the Lancome Defincils Precious Cells. Woah. My eyelashes were literally touching my lids it worked so well. The Sephora salesgirl threw in a bunch of free samples too. Philosphy Miracle Worker creme, Bosca night creme etc... I love free samples.

Back on the Train Case




I go through phases where I want all my make-up in one place or I want stuff in smaller bags. So I decided to go back to putting everything in one place. I dug up my empty train case from the closet and decided to organize. There are so many too choose from from a million different places such as Target, Sephora, Walmart. I bought this at Kmart. Initally I was going to get a plain one, but this colorful, quirky one seemed more fun.


As you can see I have fallen in love with Revlon lipglosses. The four middle ones are the most used. A bright pink, gold, coral and soft pink. Very versatile colors that go with a lot of looks.

Here I have my eyeshadows,  lipsticks and mascaras. I usually don't buy eyeshadow palletes because I like to chose colors indiviudally. Although the Urban Decay NAKED pallete that is so popular was tempting me when I bought my UD Ransom shadow. Maybe next time.

On the bottom is the ELF eyeshadow pallete I do own that has a few workable shades. This train case has slots to hold brushes but to avoid a powdery mess, I decided to place a few brushes I use most often in a couple of zip-locs. Once they get messy, I can easily toss the bag.

What's your favorite way to organize your make-up?
