VDay Nails, Coach, MAC, and ICING

Hey ladies ;D

Haven't posted much lately, school is starting tomorrow...not excited about that BLEHHHH...LOL but...here's my nails all ready for Valentine's Day ;D I used Jordana ($1) Pink pearl and nail art polishes in gold and white to get this look.

Very simple and easy small strokes ;] anyone can do this...really!

Up Close and Personal C=

Onto the Haul!!!
I really really wanted to get the Coach cosmetics but I waited too long and when I went to the Coach Outlet and found these on sale...i almost jumped for joy! i was bummed when the SA told me that there were 5 different shades around christmas but they sold out like crazy...sighhh

i got two lipglosses($10each, both peony, one for backup) and one shimmering powder($20) that i swatched at the store and fell in love with.


The packaging is amazing...i've always loved their signature C look...hate the new one that they came up with though...LOL

Color is amazing....Peachy Coral with small Gold reflects...

This is a size comparison between MAC's Preciousness and Coach's Peony =] Same weight size but Coach's is slightly larger ;D if they had more shades, i would've nabbed them all!!

The shimmering powder is imensely gorgeous! it gives your cheeks/face the right highlight shimmer that looks like a real glow! got it for half price! now i really should've gotten another one!

MAC!

I got three things! one Mineralize blush, one MSF, and a studio fix(which i hate cus the MUA was wrong[again] about my skincolor and she gave me C6 which is too dark on me)

MinBlush in GENTLE!!! i saw this on display, swatched it and fell in love with it so i bought it! it looks really pink but it gives just the right amount of *just pinched* color on your cheeks!

w/o flash you can see the gold undertone which is very faint since it has small silver reflects ;d

MSF in Refined - I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS! it gives the perfect amount of glow to my face! new fav MSF!

I got this at the same place i got those amazing brushes ;D ICING! it was on clearance for $2.25.
I really really wanted My Private Jet Holo by OPI but i couldn't find it anywhere. When i saw this glittering in the bin, at first i thought it was the OPI but then it turns out to be Icing's own brand! it's a great dupe for MPJ since it's black with rainbow holos! it doesn't have as much holo's as MPJ though...i love this one especially for the price! but my search for MPJ shall continue!

The Boyfriend surprised me with a *Just Because* gift ♥ he knew that the camera he got me 3 years ago stopped working and i really really needed another one since my camera is my life and i loveee taking pics of everything and anything...so when it died, a part of me died with it! yea i know, so melodramatic but it's true since i almost always had my camera on me! I've been using my Sis's camera for about 2 weeks now and so he decided to get me another one! I always loved Sony's digicams and he got it....for no reason =] yea i know...*gushhhh ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥*
Old Vs New! Pale pink (old) Vs Hot pink (new) i have to say i lovee the hot pink!

It's so much more clearer and i love it to pieces! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH BABE!!! THANKS FOR EVERYTHING! btw, i collect my name on mini license plate keychains from whereever i visited...if they have it...so far i only found four...since most places don't seem to carry them anymore...o well ;]

Haul after Haul, it's time for a review.

I've been doing too many hauls haha yet i still have more to post ;D but, here's a review of my all time favorite face brushes...

ICING BRUSHES!!!!
They are uber affordable and they LAST FOREVER! For under $20, you get 4 high quality brushes since they are almost always buy 1 get 1 half off...

The quality is amazing...they're even better than some of the sephora brushes i've tried....these are wayyy softer and feels better on my skin...i dont like how some brushes leave you kinda scratched up...these are truly amazing

It's thick and full unlike some brushes i got from Clinique, which were thin, flimsy, and not soft at all...for $6.50 a pop, i stocked up...haha ;D

The handle is long and feels very comfortable to hold, i use mine for everything from powders to blushes...i loveeee these brushes! they are simply the most amazing deal yet noone seems to talk about them!




More Haulage! MISSHA!!!

What i got: BB Cream in No.31 (i know i'm dark -.-')($29.99), liqiud and regular concealer($5.99 EACH), and my purchase came with a free full size 4 in 1 BB cream($19.99) =] Let me know if you guys want a review on the white package one(4in1) and i'll do one after i try it out ;D

I also got the Illuminating Essence($7.00 clearance) which clears dark spots and helps return to your natural skin tone...hmm gotta try it haha ;s Plus i got a free deluxe sampler with purchase ;D so much free stuff ;D haha
