Gettin' Dolled Up

Today I went to Sephora and the MAC store to pick up some new makeup! I normally just stick with what I normally get but I wanted to branch out a little bit and try some new things!

So even though I went to pick up my Bare Minerals foundation I even changed things up a bit and purchased the MATTE version of my normal foundation. I am excited to use it because it will not only have more coverage but it will also reduce shine and have a smoother look to it.

It happened to be my lucky day, because if you purchased a Bare Minerals foundation you received the Prime Time primer from Bare Vitamins for only $10. I'm obsessed with this primer because it normally isn't too expensive compared to other name brands and it makes your skin feel super smooth and gives your skin a good base for your foundation.

I have been searching for a good nude lipgloss that not only is shinny but also isn't too sheer. I found the perfect two colors by NARS and I'm so excited about it.

Strip Tease ( perfect nude lipgloss)

Turkish Delight ( Kim K's favorite color)
And finally my last purchase of the day, after of course giving me a full on make over, I bought a MAC eyeshadow base in the shade Soft Ochre. By applying this before normal eyeshadow it keeps it on longer and gives a smoother finish, leaving less creases.


Well that is all of my purchases of the day however a new brush kit is on my wish list. Any suggestions for a good quality kit that won't brake the bank?

I'm off to bed!
