November Haul 2013: Beauty & Fashion Accessories




               Tj Maxx
- Full size (100 ml) of Viva La Juicy Perfume by Juicy Couture, which is one of my favorites, it's not an overwhelming smell. It came with a small pouch bag which is really pretty!

- A Cheetah Print makeup bag from Betsey Johnson

- A set of Marc Jacobs Roll On Eu de Parfum

  My favorite is the Marc Jacobs "Daisy Eau So Fresh" (right most), second favorite is the original Marc Jacobs "Daisy" (middle), I personally do not like Marc Jacobs "Lola" as mush as the other two.
       

      Mac Lipsticks
- Diva (left) is a Matte Finish and is a dark red color perfect for fall and winter! Matte Finish from Mac isn't the best at moisturizing your lips but I recommend putting a thick base lip balm like the Vaseline or the Blistex Moisture Melt (another of my favorites!) just let it set and dry a little bit and put Diva on your lips, it lasts for almost 8 hours, stains your lips when it wears off.

-Cream in your Coffee (Right) - One of the your lips but better lipsticks from Mac, it's a creamsheen lipstick, pretty moisturizing. Great for any season or any events, your everyday wearable lip color.


      Ulta: Hair Products from Not Your Mother's
-This is actually the first time I'm trying out for this particular brand. So far so good I used the Beach Babe (left most) once on my damp hair and it looked wavy and curly effortlessly (in a good way) I would probably use this more during the spring and especially during summer time. A great product for a casual look and it's very inexpensive and it actually does work!

-Knotty to Nice Detangler is the one that I use everyday and I thought it would't work for my hair because my hair is really thick and the product was very inexpensive. I was wrong because I really love it, the smell is okay, and it actually contains keratin which is good to start/maintain a healthy hair, and it of course detangles your hair without a problem. Previously I was using the Healthy Sexy Hair Soy-Tri Wheat Leave-in conditioner but I ran out, but it smells good and does the job, nothing was wrong with it, just wanted to try something new. 
- I haven't tried the Beat the Heat Spray that came with Knotty to Nice, it came in a travel size.
       

              Target
-I've just been wanting to try new things from Sonia Kashuk because I love their makeup brushes, it's cheap, it's soft on your skin, doesn't shed, easy to clean, and pretty affordable. 
-Velvety Matte Lip Crayon in Berry Nude (top) is a really nice berry color that is pretty wearable and it's not really drying like other lip products because it's matte. It is wearable on itself but you can always add a lipliner color and a lipgloss on top and it will look very pretty.
- I also got the Sonia Kashuk Lipstick in Sheer Plum, I love Mac Rebel and I would say it's one of the cheapest alternatives for it, it's buildable, it pulls your look together especially when you think that you look so casual, and it is moisturizing unlike Mac Rebel which is a Satin finish which is similar to their Matte finish.          
  
     Nordstrom Rack

-I got the pleather skirt than has lace looking pattern at the bottom, perfect for fall and winter, can be for casual wear or for something special. I know I will use this a lot because I can wear it with any basics, flannels, play with different accessories, colors, material, and textures of your top
- I got a travel size palette from Lorac I love the pinkish color it's very pigmented and I just love the pinks with browns. Everyday makeup, good for traveling, easy to store.
- I love the Travalo! You can put any perfume/mists/body sprays that you want so you can take it to go without having to bring the whole bottle in your purse!

           Random Things
-F21 Jeweled Beanie- I love it because it's a beanie that dresses up my outfits, hides my messy hair, and keeps me warm!
-F21 makeup bag, large- I basically bought this for traveling purposes but it is also a nice way to keep your things organized inside your purse so it's not scattered everywhere and you can't find anything.
-My essential lip product during winter, really moisturizes my lips and lasts for a while. Smells really good and minty.


-My everyday to work purse at the moment from F21 I love it because it prevents me from carrying all the things that I normally carry that I don't really use everyday. It has a lot of compartments and it's a cross body bag I don't have to worry about tired arms especially if I'm shopping or doing errands. Perfect bag for essentials if you're only going to be out for a bit, walk in the city/beach, etc. Fits a regular water bottle, and it fits a lot of stuff!
-Infinity scarves from H & M: White and Burgundy. Essentials to keep me warm :)

   Black Friday
- I didn't really buy a lot for myself during black friday because I already bought too many stuff and my main priority is to save and buy Christmas Presents! So I only got these 2 candles which smells amazing. My favorite lotion from BBW is Moonlight Path, smells really relaxing, smells like lavender powder.
- I also went to Nike and got 2 jackets for working out 1 with zipper and 1 without, 1 is pink and 1 is black both with hoodies. Might do an OOTD for gym.
