and the pretty things in-between
-and the pretty things in-between-
I'm an everyday consumer, trying to navigate my way through a product rich landscape.
For the past few months I’ve been fairly good with my makeup spending, just picking up one or two things each month if so much. But I’ve got to say that this past week I’ve been tempted and I’ve filled up my basket with a few items. I’ve been looking at main stream brands as well as some indie brands.
Read MoreIf you’re like me, you spend far too much time stalking the Instagram pages for new makeup releases. I’ve seen a few upcoming holiday products that have me a bit excited. So far there is one palette that I know I will pick up, on launch day I will be ready.
Read MoreI’m not sure about you but lately I’ve been struggling with the never ending desire to buy, buy, buy. I’ve said it before, I like things, I like spending my money on items and products that interest me. Lately though I’ve been feeling like I’ve indulged myself too much.
Read MoreEven though I’m feeling like everyday new makeup is being tossed at me, the makeup lover inside me still squeals a bit and says ‘gimme gimme’. Since I can’t buy everything I’ve decided to just make a list, you never know I might end up buying one or two of these at some point.
Read MoreOkay so I wasn’t planning on doing a wish list just because I didn’t want to be all about the consumerism. That however did not stop my interest in purchasing certain products. Reading about other peoples wish lists in r/muacjdiscussion didn’t help either.
Read MoreSo off the bat I’ll say that I don’t need anymore makeup than I currently have but I like makeup and new things so that means that I’ll buy new things. Most of this wishlist is based on things that I’ve had my eye on for a little bit, I tend to stick to makeup because the skin care prices at Sephora are a little too dear for me
Read MoreHave you ever watched a Youtube video or read a blog post that contained products from a brand you’ve never heard of? You hear the reviewer rave about the brand, and you become intrigued. You open a second web window so that you can check out their website and see what they’ve got. The products look good and the price isn’t too bad. Now you want to try out this brand, after all variety is the spice of life and you can never have too many spices.
Read MoreThere have been a few things that I have been thinking about, instead of making multiple wish lists or buy lists I’ve just complied everything into one big beautiful list.
I’ll start with beauty first because that’s what’s been driving me the last few days.
I’ve got quite a bit of Zoeva products on here. I first heard about this company in early 2014 late 2013, because I was trying to good and save my money I didn’t take advantage of the last sale that I’ve seen them do in the past two years. Anyhow let’s move on, I’ve got some of their eyeshadow palettes which from the reviews I’ve read say that the quality is good, the palettes that were reviewed by Temptalia got a B+. I’ve also got some brushes on here. Since I do already have quite a few brushes I went for the ones that were more unique and not like anything I already have in my collection.
