February Empties!

 

WE HAVE PICTURES! Yay! I missed you guys and I am so sorry, unfortunately my January empties might be lost, but I am sure I can redo my January Favorites esp. cause I don't really have any favorites for February because I have been trying to use up a few things. 

 

Makeup:

 Revlon Photoready Primer: This was nice and I liked that it had a pump, but I also felt like there was a lot of product that you couldn't get to.

Revlon Super Lustrous lipgloss in Firecracker: 'Twas nice, nothing special, and it was old so good bye to you.

Revlon Colorstay and Marbella Semi permanent eyeliner pen: The Revlon one was nice, but the Marbella one threw me off because it literally was semi permanent and I didn't want to deal with it, and I didn't want to give it to anyone so good bye.

Revlon Browfantasy: Wasn't a huge fan, but you might like it. It was old and taking up space and plus I got into the mode of getting rid of things if you didn't notice.

Noteworthy lipbalm: Not a huge fan, never really used it and if I did I thought it was too heavy for day.

UDPP: It worked and was nice, this was a sample, but I am now using Too Faced Shadow insurance.

 

Face Care

Burts Bee's Wipes: Just like previous months.

UP and UP Daily Facial Moisurizer with spf 15(?): I did quite like this

Jack Blacks All Day oil control lotion sample: I didn't like this... it had weird beads in it and I wasn't a fan.

 

 Body

Skintimate Shave gel in Strawberry Tangerine Twist: It was nice, but I am now trying out and eos one.

Organix Moroccan Argan Oil Shampoo: I like this a lot, and will probably repurchase

Bath and Body Works:

Paris Amour Body Lotion: Worked, the scent was fine, but not a favorite.

Bat Bite Hand Sanitizer: Just like any hand sanitizer

Midnight Pomegranate Body Spray: Smelled nice, but wasn't a favorite smell, in the end I just used it on my bed before I slept, but before I did that I kept it in my gym locker.

 

I am finally back!

Why I am not posting much

Eveytime I go to do a blogpost with pictures it stops responding so I can't do it... ugh. Hopefully some posts will happen soon. Sorry guys.

~Sami

Quick Update... again. Plus Instagram!

I am terrible. I am a terrible human being for not updating on here recently... and I apologize. But if you want to see me more active on somewhere my instagram is Sami2918 if you are interested.

 

But anyway I am here to state something that idk if I made clear before. I am not vegan nor a vegetarian, I just prefer not to purchase from companies that test on animals and so I don't or at least try not to. I apologize if I push it too much or anything  like that. And I forgot what else I was going to say... yay!

p.s please don't hate me

January Favorites

Finally!!! I am back! Sorry, I have been busy, then lazy, then my computer decided to hate me. Anyway I am back!!

 

 

 

Face:

 

 Sonia Kashuk blush in Flamingo: This blush is beautiful, easy to wear and I highly recommend it. Also I love the packaging! Paraben and cruelty free

 

Lip:

 Lip combo: Wnw Bare it all, and E.l.f Mineral Lipgloss in Wild: Bare it all is a beautiful slightly peachy nude, it is beautiful even by its self. Wild is more of a corally color and they just pair together beautifully!!! Both are paraben and cruelty free too!

 

 

Eyes:

Wnw Trio in Slilent Treatment: I love the top and bottom colors especially. The browbone color is a pinky peach color while the eyelid color is a cool taupe color which is absolutely beautiful. They are pigmented too! This is cruelty free and I highly suggest it!

Quick Update and Sorry

I just wanted to say sorry for not posting for about a week or so. I had finals this week and the post I had planned to do was about my lipstick collection, but then I recently went through my makeup and got rid of quite a few things, so I didn't want to do that post after getting rid of some of them and didn't have time to take new pictures. Hopefully I will have an actual post up soon.

Make-out 2013 (make-up)

Some of you might be confused by the title of this, while others might not be. What I mean is that for the year of 2013 I am putting a limit on how much stuff I can buy.

 

 

Here's my limit's:

 

 

1) Make up: I am limiting myself to 20 makeup items. They could be individual items or kits. I am not going to count each item in a kit as an individual item because then I buy one kit and them I don't have much wiggle room to buy makeup. Also, if I happen to have bought all 20 items already, then I can only buy something if I am completely out, like concealer or mascara for example. If I am gifted makeup it doesn't count toward this and ipsy bags don't go towards this either.

 

2) Nail polishes: I am limiting myself to 12 nail polishes. Gifts still don't count along with ipsy. I think/ hope I can do this. I have a lot of nail polish and that's why this is basically for one a month.

 

3)Hair care items: I am limiting myself to 5 hair care items excluding shampoo and conditioner, still not including gifts or ipsy. This should be easy seeing as I don't buy much hair care items.

 

4) Fragrances: No more than 5 fragrances, to be honest I think this should be quite easy, so yay!

 

5) Shoes: no more than 3 pairs of shoes. Some of you may be gasping and clutching your heart at this, I am doing this because I honestly have so many shoes already. I can go over if it is something I actually need, like tennis shoes or something. And so far into this year I have already bought a pair of shoes... so I can only buy 2 more for the rest of 2013 O.o

 

 

For all of these gifts I recieve and ipsy do not count towards any of these. Stuff I buy with a gift card gifted to me or not will count.

 

Some of you may be wondering, what about clothing Sami? Honestly, I don't buy much clothing so I didn't put a limit on it.

 

 

I will keep you guys posted on when I buy things that count towards this!

Second Project 10 Pan Update

Update on how far I am on my project 10 pan!

 

 

Newly Finished things that you can see more about in my December Empties

Revlon Lipbutter in Strawberry Shortcake: 1 point

E.l.f Hypershine gloss in Flirt:1 point

E.l.f Shimmer lipgloss in New York City: 1/2 point

E.l.f Complection Perfection and Innocence Blush: 1 point each (2 points)

 

 E.l.f Quad in Nouveau Neutrals (other three colors): 1.5 points
Revlon Colorstay eyeliner: 1 point

 

 Points from last update: 1.5
Points from this update: 7

 

 Total Points: 8.5

 

 

Also, I gave away a few things I had on my list to use up, those things included:

Nyc Lipstick in 402 Red Flame

E.l.f Shimmer Eyeliner in Iconic Ivory

E.l.f Shadow and Liner Duo in Shell/ Glow

Along with about 5 other things that I didn't include in my project pan but I don't use much or isn't a good color for me.



Along with this I did buy two wet n wild lipstick just the other day, so that can be considered and me failing project 10 pan unless you count the stuff I gave away. Then I didn't fail, unless you counted the Tarte order as my failing. So depending who you are it depends if I failed or not. I will still try (obviously) to use up the stuff I put in my project 10 pan along with my other stuff, but I think this will by my last project 10 pan post. At least for a long time.
