Avon Makeup

Lucky for me I have a sister-in-law who is an Avon Representative! When they came out with the new spring makeup I knew I had to get some. (Spring gets me everytime!) I just love all the colors they use in the spring! The first thing I got was a bright pink lipgloss. It's the ultra color rich lipgloss in the shade Brilliant Ruby. It was the first one I've tried in that line of lipglosses and I must say I'm impressed with how long it stays on, not to mention I love the bright, shimmery color. It's perfect for spring!

Next I got a couple of the glimmersticks diamonds eyeliner. I had bought a gold and a silver color before and really love how easily the color glides on and how true to the shade it is. So this time I got Black Ice to replace the eyeliner I'm using now and I got Sugar Plum to branch out into the colored world of eyeliner.
 
 
You can see how easily it shows up on the skin. I really love these. I was hoping the plum would show up more purpley  but that's ok. I still like it. :) I definitely want to get more just to play with different colors this spring/summer.
 
I know nailpolish is the last thing I need, so I told myself I could only get one, even though there were so many pretty spring colors I'm dying to try! The one I decided I'd get is the Nailwear Pro+ in the shade Serene because of how popular the mint color has been this spring and suprisingly enough I didn't have any nailpolish in that color. I've always loved Avon's nailpolish because it stays on and could easily be worn in just one coat. (I always use a second to be safe. :)) I just love this color and I think it might be limited edition for spring so I'm glad I got it when I did.
(I know it looks pretty blue in this picture, but it's mint, trust me!)
 
Ok the last thing I got was True Color Eyeshadow Quad in the shade Awakening. This is the first time I've ever got eyeshadow from them, for myself anyway. I've bought them before for Christmas gifts. And this was the one they were advertising for spring and I fell in love with it.
 
I must say I was nervous when I first got it, because the blue in it the pallete is so bright! But I decided to give it a try just on the corner of my eyelids and I have to say, I absolutely love it! It's just a fun color to play with in the spring.  Maybe someday I'll do a demonstration of how I wear these colors, but not tonight :)  Have a good night everyone and enjoy this weather.  I think winter's finally done!!

Rue 21/Sear's Haul

Last week during Sprink Break I went shopping with my parents and I thought I'd show you guys what I got.

At Sear's I got a purple blazer. I've been looking at the blazers there all winter but never bought one. This trip I purposed to get one if they still had some on clearance and they did! I love the way this one fits. It's a little longer than most of them and more slimming.
I think they're great to dress up with a skirt or dress down with jeans. My next stop was Rue 21 and I normally don't shop there but I think their spring collection this year is just so colorful and bright! Plus I had a coupon for $20 off of a $50 purchase, so that was nice! :) Ok, the first thing I got there is a sheer, button up, collared tank in a pretty blue with coral and yellow flowers on it. I love this top for summer! It's so light and pretty!
 
And then I just bought a couple of their tanks: a plain yellow one to go under this shirt and a green one with flowrs on it. Because it was 2 for $9. I also bought an awesome coral necklace and bracelets that I can't find pictures of on their website anymore, but I bought them mainly to go with the last piece of clothing I'm going to show you but they actually go well with everything I bought there which is great. I love when I can find lots of uses for my jewelry! Ok so here it is the one I'm most excited to show you guys!
I LOVE this dress! It's a pretty lacey pattern on the top and a chiffon mint color on the bottom! And I just love the coral necklace with it! I think it really stands out!
 
Well I hope you guys are enjoying this beautiful spring weather we're having! Get outside if you haven't all ready! It's much needed after 6 months of winter!
 
Much love,
Jenna

Fun with Nailpolish!

Today I made a trip to Walgreen's and left with more nailpolish. It's a real weakness. There's so many shades and I want to try them all! :) The first one I got was one I've been looking for for awhile and its by Sinful Colors in the shade Cinderella. It's a pretty robin egg, blue color with some shimmer. For those of you who aren't familiar with Sinful Colors, you can get them practically everywhere now, even Walmart! But they are an amazing nail polish! They last just as long and go on just as smoothly as the ever popular/expensive O.P.I. And get this, they are $1.99 everywhere! Can't beat that price!

The next two I bought are both Sally Hansen. I found the most perfect coral ever!!! It's in the shade Coral Reef.  I seriously don't think I've ever seen a truer coral color than this one. I just love it! It's a creme color with no shimmer or glitter to it.
 
The last color I bought is in the shade Bubblegum Pink. And I bought this to wear to my friend's wedding in a couple of weeks. I was looking for a creme light but not too light pink and I think I found the perfect one!
 
 
So that's it for today! I can't even decide which color to try first. Leave a comment and let me know your thoughts! :)
Much love,
Jenna
