Haul 8/22

Since I have been COMPLETELY MIA, I decided to get back into it with a quick haul...

Mac Constructivist Paint Pot. "A highly pigmented eye colour that goes on creamy but dries to an intense, vibrant finish. Long-wearing, colourfast. Creates seamless coverage without weight or caking. Blends smoothly over the lids. Cream-based, can be mixed with M·A·C shadows and liners." It's a frost shade, a metallic brown with red pearl. I've been eyeing it for awhile now!


Mac Cremesheen Glass in Boy Bait. "A lip finish that fuses the creamy, sheen-filled nature of Cremesheen Lipstick with the shine of M∙A∙C Lipglass. Soft, comfortable, non-sticky. Applies with a doe-foot applicator. Use as a top layer to its namesake Lipstick or on its own." It's the perfect sheer nude without being tooo sheer. It's about to be discontinued, so stock up!


Philosophy Purity Made Simple face wash. "Clean up your act with a face wash that keeps skin squeaky clean, easily dissolving dirt, debris, and makeup. Streamline your morning and evening skincare routine to a single step with this gentle formula that doesn't shirk its duties as the gentlest, most effective cleanser around." After venturing away, I *always* come back to this. Not quite sure why I ever stray lol.


Ultraflesh Pantera Mascara. "This volumizing, super-defining, and long-wearing Ultraflesh mascara gives the term "cat eye" new meaning. Formulated with a blend of natural waxes, it maintains the lashes' soft, pliable feel while keeping lashes conditioned and promoting healthy growth. The dual-purpose Panthera brush combines a full brush experience with a comb on the other side to create definition and length without clumping or smudging." Got a sample of this with my Beauty Insider points, I've been wanting to try it for awhile..

Picked up Essie Nail Lacquer in Master Plan at Target. Loving this color, exactly what I've been on the lookout for!

Hope you're having a fabulous week!

Official Christmas Gifts post :)

Better late than never! I had such an awesome Christmas! I'm extremely grateful for everything, but the best part  was spending much needed time with my family. Some items are not pictured, such as cash, gift cards, VS panties, and my plane ticket up to Ohio.

Silky top from Gap
VS bras
Sparkly picture frame
Tanks and pants for the gym
Bulldog sweatpants (story below)
Sephora by Opi mini nail polish set
Brush roll and brushes from Sigma
VS Sexy Little Things Noir gift set
Charms for my Pandora bracelet
Ed Hardy perfume set (luggage tag and travel size perfume not pictured)

So the bulldog sweatpants were a gift from my parents. They know I LOVE having matching things with my sisters (I'm a dork), and my dad found these super soft and comfy sweats. The fact that they have bulldogs on them is sooo random, but he told us they were the ones he liked the best that he could find 2 of in a size small, so my sister and I could have the same. Such a cutie :)

Hope everyone had a great holiday!
