Unboxing - Another Sephora Haul! Perfume Depot too!

I've done it again! Another small, but costly haul. I have fallen in love with the Tartiest Pro Magnetic Palettes, which are large, but affordable. I purchase 3 online from Sephora. While cruising the sale section on the Sephora website, I ran across a set from Smashbox, which included primer water, a lip &c cheek crayon, and soft light fusion highlighter. Got it for a steal! Last, but certainly not least, I hit up the perfume depot and got some back ups for my Ed Hardy perfumes! Yasss! Give me LIFE!

YouTuber of the Week - Wahlflower

I stumbled across this little gem of a youtuber by happenstance. I am binge watching eyeshadow collection/declutter videos (like hard-core watching) and "Wahlflower" has recently posted such a video. I enjoyed her enthusiasm and positive outlook and her infectious and genuine personality. She isn't a major youtuber, and I am not a major blog, but sometimes the little guy deserves a little recognition. Check out her most recent video down below!

Palette & a Partner - Palette of the Week (Nubian Palette, Natasha Denona Palette 5, and Jouer)

Welcome to a new featured post called, "Palette & a Partner". Like the self-serving person I am, this post is not necessarily for my audience, but to instead help me utilize the ridiculous amount of makeup that I have, which is not being used. I have palettes, highlighters, lip products, and blushes that are just gathering dust, so in an order to maximize usage and honestly, just an effort to enjoy what I have purchased I have created this tag. Each week, I will pick one "main" palette and another product (smaller palette, blush, highlighter, eye product or lip product) and use them for the entire week. This will challenge me to minimize my spending and maximize my usage by requiring me to faithful post each week about the beauty products chosen and to be creative and have fun! This week, I have decided to start off with a bang! I selected Juvia's Place "Nubian Palette," Jouer's Powder Highlighter in "Topaz," and Natasha Denona's "Palette 5, #02". See below for the stunning combo!
