Beauty Finds at Under $10
Yes, I have some absolute beauty finds at under $10. Not bad. I love inexpensive stuff that is amazing! Let's get to it.
St. Ives Oatmeal Scrub and Mask $4.29- Let me start off by saying, this smells delightful. It's so refreshing. I tend to gravitate this more than other cleansers, because it's cheap, smells good and gets the job done. You can either use this as a scrub to clean off impurites or as a mask. I love, love, love this mask! It really clenases my face and leaves it soft and clean!
Cetaphil Cleansing Cloths $5.39- I used this when I remove make-up especially eye make-up. This is very much moisturized and it leaves my face feeling moisturized as well. The first time I have tried this, it was sent to me and I loved it since. It doesn't irritate my face like other brands do. Gently removes make-up and whatever gunk my face might have.
Sally Hansen Miracle Gel $7.97- This line is genius. I swear by it. My polish is chip free for almost 2 weeks. Amazing considering I change dirty diapers, wash dishes, cook, etc. I love this. It is pricey but if it isn't going to chip than the price is amazing. I used to get my nails done at a salon and just for "gel polish or shellac" it was $30 and that is only to have them painted, no acrylics. Rip-off! This is a true bargain.
N.Y.C City Proof 24 Eyeshadow Primer $2.77- I love more of a pencil primer for whatever reason, I find that it adheres better than a liquid primer, at least for me. This is so inexpensive, and my shadows do not crease and they stay on really well.
Ardell Lashes $3.49- I don't wear lashes a lot but when I do, they have to be this brand, the band isn't too thick, they are so easy to apply and they have styles to suit anyones needs, and they also have natural looking lashes.
Batiste Dry Shampoo $5.99- I have more of wavy thick and frizzy hair. I tend to only wash my hair maybe every 2 days, yes gross, but that works for my hair so it works for me as well. So on 2nd day hair I use this dry shampoo. It takes care of any oiliness my hair might get. Smells, good and once again gets the job done. Bravo.
Maybelline ColorSensational Lipsticks $5.50- These are my favorite affordable lipsticks. they have an amazing color selection, from Matte, Pastel, Reds, Pinks and Nudes. Everyone who knows everyone has raved about the Creamy Matte's and I can see why. These are the only lipsticks I ever pick up at the drugstore. I love them, affordable, good color payoff, quality, need I say more?

Dupe Alert! Too Faced vs. Hard Candy
Could this be a possible dupe alert. Very similar. Too Faced is more rosey and warm whereas Hard Candy is more warm neutral. And they have the same name palette "Natural Eyes" I need swatches!
MAC Spring 2015
When we think of Spring which is tomorrow by the way! I think of flowers and spring and pretty things. Here are some pictures from TrendMood1. I love the whole collection. So pretty and pastel! I want some of the beauty powders though and maybe the creme sheen Lipglosses or maybe everything. Greedy right. Actually there are a lot of things out that I want! If only I was rich to afford all of these goodies. MAC has a lot of good collection it at the moment, but there are a lot of other brands that are awesome as well!

NYX Micro Brow vs, ABH Brow Wiz
For anyone who is a mom out there, this goes to you. We have really no time to do a nice full brow look we would love so we have to fill them in with the little time we have! A couple weeks ago I got the Micro Brow from NYX and I was skeptical at first because the shade was a bit lighter than what I had hoped for, I like more of a cool toned color considering I have black hair, I got the color espresso and it was okay.
Now the NYX i feel as if it isn't waxy, but that is okay with me. I need my brows to just be filled in and that certainly did the job just right. It did hold up very well without having to set it with gel (i personally hate the look of brow gel, it looks crunchy and not my thing) , I was shocked and pleasantly surprised that it did. It did blend out flawlessly. It was so easy to use, it glided on nicely and filled in any sparse areas I did have. If you do watch Whatwouldlizzydo on Youtube, I agree with her on her the ABH having a powdery feel though, it does, but it doesn't give the appearance as a powder.
NYX and ABH are very indeed compareable as quality goes. They both are a bit different texture wise, but they both hold up good. Just the price, and of course the color selection.
On a scale from 1 being worst and 10 being the best I put it at a solid 8. Not because I didn't get the correct shade but because for me there is no such thing as perfect and 9 for me is "perfect". Would I recommend this, yes! Just make sure you look at the swatches. Is this a good price, yes. Because you get just about the same thing as you do with ABH one. I do love the ABH because color wise it was perfect, but ouch, the price is kinda high.
I can't tell you who takes home the prize only because I need to buy the correct shade and see if it matches well.
I wont be trying their dipbrow only because I barely touch my ABH dipbrows, I have 2 shades, I just don't ever feel the need to use it, only when I'm going somewhere and my make-up needs to be soon, right? Mostly powders and pencils for this gal!

Riot Swatch by Lime Crime
To those of you who will still be buying from Lime Crime here goes a swatch of Riot. It almost looked likes Lolita (new formula). Riot is a true brick red color, This picture has no flash, just natural lighting. It applied beautifully just like her other Velvetines. I didn't like how it looked on me, maybe a different makeup look will justify it, who knows. Yes, we all know the drama and no, I didn't make a purchase, I got this from a friend, and no I won't be throwing away what I already have, it was hardmoney spent so I feel the need to use up what I already have, it is sad that she has amazing products but Doe as a business woman couldn't live up to her products standard.
