Updated Make Up collection May 2013 (Part 2)!

Disney version ELF palette. I wish I had gotten all three when this came out. They're really cute and look like DVD cases.

This one I got for like $3 when they had an online sale. Eye shadows, blushes, bronzers and lip colors!

This storage cart I got for Christmas, the only storage I didn't buy myself.

Proud to have made it on Sephora's VIB list ;). Hello Kitty Brush set (animal print) from my boyfriend. Some palettes, and a candle burner.

Lorac palettes, Pro and Glo Getter.

 

V.S palette, not going to lie. I pretty much only bought this for the packaging.

Urban Decay "Create your own" palette and Smoked.

Still don't know which color to buy to fill that last spot!

Dry shampoos.

Lippies! EOS, Korres and other lip butters, Baby Lips and the start of my Limited Edition "Chapstick" collection.

Drug store lip glosses/lip stains. Covergirl, Revlon, Maybelline, L'Oreal, NYX, ELF, Milani.

High end lip glosses; Buxom, Lorac, Lip Fusion, and smaller palettes; ELF, NYX, Hello Kitty (only for the packaging), Too Faced.

Blushes and bronzers.

My "extras" or backup drawer.

Lashes and some nail polish kits.

Urban Decay NYC Book of Shadows and boxes for some products. 

Liquid Foundations, travel perfumes, moisturizers, setting sprays, more lippies!


And that about wraps it up. Some day I hope to do my nail polish collection but I need to go through them because there are some that I don't like or want anymore. And they are all over the place. Again, this is not exactly how I want my make up set up but for now, and because of the space I have, it'll do. I hope that when I move out I can get a bigger desk or at least one with drawers.


Updated Make Up Collection May 2013 (Part 1)!!

So basically, I've wanted to post this for a long time now but it is very time consuming and I'm still not happy with my set up. This is just what works for now and is not even including some lip products lost in my purse(s). I broke this up into two different post because there are so many pictures. Hope you enjoy!
 
So this is what my desk looks like. I bought everything; desk, make up, brushes, mirrors, storage containers, etc. with my own money over the last almost year and a half.

These are my body mists and perfume sprays. Mostly Victoria's Secret, Bath and Body Works and one old Hollister mist.

This drawer I didn't really know what to do with. Jesse's Girl lip glosses, Palladio tinted balms, "Fresh" deluxe lip samples from Sephora for my birthday last year and an NYC lip balm.

These are mostly chapsticks/non-tinted balms for everyday use.

For everyone who goes to Sephora or a beauty store...or even sees a good size sample from a magazine...this is my sample collection. Mostly perfume ones in the bottom.

Some of my perfumes...the ones with the cute bottles anyway. V.S "Bombshell," Coach "Poppy," DKNY "Be Delicious," Ralph Lauren "#2," BCBGMaxazria (not sure of the actual name?), Arbonne "The Dazzler."

Lashes and glue I currently use.

Smaller storage and my little cactus pup collection. :)

Everyday eyeshadows; NYX, Wet 'n Wild, Iman (which I still haven't used) and bareMinerals.

Maybelline Color Tattoos and small brushes that usually come in my palettes.

Old packaging of Urban Decay shadows, the bottom two are my favorite purples to use.

Mini or deluxe size samples of mascaras that I bought or came in a pack with other sample products.

Mini eye and face primers and highlighters.

Brushes!

Every day jewelry.

Face products and primers.

More face stuff; concealer, blush, bronzer, eyebrow kit.

Eye shadows I don't use as much but for everyday use (more on the neutral side).

Colored eyeliners; NYX jumbo eye pencils, Urban Decay eyeliners, glitter liners.

Mostly black/dark eyeliners and gel liners.

Mascaras.

Set up of some palettes.

NYX palettes. NYX's "Nude on Nude" ($25) is similar to Urban Decay's Naked palette if you're not looking to spend $50 and comes with 10 lip colors.

Toki Doki palette.

Eyes, Lips, Face (ELF) 100 colors palette.

Popsugar Must Have Box, MAY!

So there have been a lot of mix feelings about this subscription box, some were better than others but I think it's time for me to retire my subscription until I see them improve and keep things consistent. This months box was my last, for now, and I'm glad they made it worth it because it came a little after my birthday. So here we go...
 

So this wasn't on the card but it's an extra. It's just a little tote you can use to carry a few things if you're going to the store or beach or wherever.

Another extra are these chips. Suppose to be health, "sprouted' which unlocks all the 'good' that is inherent in grains, seeds, and beans and brings them to life nutritionally. Made with simple, clean ingredients like flaxseed and quinoa."

Kooringal Giselle Mid Brim hat. Just a fun little sun hat, honestly not my style but my mom might like it because she's always out gardening or going to the park with her siblings.

The Modern Margarita ($8.99/ on sale now). This should be fun for the summer time, or if you don't drink, it would make a great gift for friends who do.


Beauty Blender and Cleaner ($23.95). Really mad because I just bought this beauty blender (alone) a couple weeks ago (they retail for $20 each)! But I guess I'm glad I have another and a cleaner for it. Surprised to have seen this in the box.


Pacifica Natural Color Quench Lip Tint in Fig ($7). This one is pretty nice. It might be a little dark for me, I'm not sure I'll have to try it out.

A card "game" for girls night. 50 topics for conversation starters (around $13 on Amazon).


And the overall box. I think Popsugar is a good subscription box if you're looking for a variety of products, instead of just beauty and skin care but like I said, they need to keep their boxes consistent because Aprils box only have 4-5 things and wasn't so impressive.

Thanks for viewing!
