Vanity counter container
In this container I place all my daily makeup and items that I use everyday and I dont want to reach for them in my storage drawers it gives me quick access to them and makes getting ready a snap. I also put new items that I'd like to use in the basket as well. What do you do to gain quick access to your beauty items?
Evian water bottle designed by Christian Lacroix
This bottle of Evian keeps popping around around my city in bargain stores like Big Lots...not sure why now but dont remember seeing this before. I keep them all over in the bathroom and kitchen and use the bottle to fill my spritzer bottles for my face.
Bonus the bottle is so pretty that is looks gorgeous on the countertop.

What do you guys store in your Makeup junk drawer?
ULTA Haul
Here is a haul from the last two weeks from ULTA on a few trips also look in your magazines ulta often puts $5 off $10 and over purchases in
Various magazines. Here is what I picked up:
Loreal nude nail color
Jergens natural Face glow in Medium ( I love this as I am mighty pale in the winter)
Maybelline expert eyes wipes
Neutrogena lip gloss ( I do not like this at all, the smell the taste the feel ick)
Rimmel Mousse Blush in Juicy Lychee (this is such a pretty color and has such a nice finish…check these out! Very similar to Maybelline mousse blush
Rimmel Primer in 001…not sure how I feel about this primer…I’ll get back to ya!
Revlon colorstay Mineral Lipglaze in Neverending Nude…I love love love this lipglaze…far better than sticky MAC glass etc This is the perfect nude lip glaze, feels great on
Doesn’t dry your lips…I am loving Revlon lately!! They have really stepped up the plate with the “Colorstay series”!
Revlon Colorstay mineral eyeshadow
Revlon cream shadow in “Twilight”
Covergirl Lashblast length ( I really don’t like this mascara at all!! I love the original lash blast and the Maybelline lash stylist
Which extends my lashes 100%...this unfortunately does not…*sigh* very disappointed!
Walmart reintroduces Hard Candy
If you follow me on twitter
http://twitter.com/macgal74
A weeks or so ago I tweeted about Walmart now carries the brand Hard Candy that was discontinued:
I purchased so far two blushes and a lip plumper and I am loving them so far!!
I bought the pink blush in “Living Doll” and I have used it everyday since…I swear it’s a dup for Stark Naked by Mac
Which is a favorite of mine! The brown blush which name escape me at the moment…I have not tried cause I’m stuck on living doll.
Price range for this line is from $5.00-$10.00 and I definitely planning on purchasing more items. I think the quality still exists for this brand even
Though being sold at wal-mart. I have noticed its not at every wal-mart it seems only a select few carry this line but I encourage you to go
And check it out;)
Rimmel Love
Two Rimmel lipsticks I’m loving right now:
Rimmel-Just So
Rimmel-Airy Fairy
Rimmels Just so is a a just pinched lips color that plays up my lips..I love how it gives such a nice pop of color.
Rimmels Airy Fairy is a favorite across the Youtube community but it lives up to the hype. I love the light pink wash of color
It provides. This I bought as a backup cause I am almost done using my old one.
Check out Rimmels other colors as well but right now I’m loving these!!

Halloween Costume Idea!!
What is everyone thinking of for a Halloween costume this year?
I came up with several ideas and narrowed it down to Queen of Hearts,Goth Vampire and 70s costume.
I always loved Pam Grier as Foxy Brown and Beyonce as Foxy Cleopatra….so this year I am going as
Foxy Cleopatra….Sexy Suga!!
This is such an easy costume, Afro in your hair color, Gold makeup look, Foxy necklace
And a 70s outfit that can be found at your local goodwill or ebay.
I will post some pics soon of what I got and the makeup look.
I love the 70s and this is my little homage to the 70s;)
