NYX Matte Lipstick

I bought this lipstick at Ulta in Butter. This is a matte formula, but I find it to be semi matte and very moisturizing. I actually appreciate this because I don't really like matte lipsticks. The color is a Brown Taupe and does not look so pretty in the tube but once swatched (to me at least) it resembled MAC's Chai lip glass. I figured I'd buy it just for that reason :) The packaging is simple and sleek, traditional twist up and down tube. There's also no scent to these lipsticks. Overall I give this lipstick and A- I would grade it and A but I think it's misleading to have matte printed on the tube and the product not being able to live up to the description. I'm sure matte lipstick lovers would be disappointed.

Fashion Find of the Day

I decided to make the "Fashion Find of the Day" post a permanent feature on my blog. I bought 2 bangles by Ted Baker at Nordstrom Rack for $4.50 each!


With flash.



No flash. The bracelets each say Ted Baker and arm candy on them all the way around.


I added the plain white and black bracelets. They did NOT come with the bangles I purchased.

I also went to the La Mirada indoor swap meet and bought a few things


Klean color lip liner, NYX lip gloss in Whipped, Adoro nail polish stickers, Profusion mascara, and earrings.


Lip liners in golden nugget, rose and mauve. Nyx lip gloss in whipped.


I loved the flower print and little birds on the mascara. All items cost $1.00 except the nyx gloss it was $1.50
