Oh Costco how I love you!

So, we all know that Costco is the best place to get huge containers of mayonnaise and dog food, but did you know that hiding in those endless isles there are also great beauty products! Yes ladies it is true! I went on a Costco a while back and found this awesome brush set. I bought a brush set about 2 years ago, and many of them are my favorite to use on a daily basis, and these are just as great. The come in a super cute purple case and the quality of the brushes is amazing! For only $20! There are 10 brushes 

total, and again I cannot rave more about the quiality! So if your a Costco member, go find them! If not a member, Become one!!! Over and out!

L'OREAL colour riche lip balm

First of all I want to say that this is the greatest lip balm ever! Let's just say that a great lip balm, and a super subtle lip stick meet each other, got married and had babies, this is what it would be! The colors are really natural, and there is a bit of a shine but not overwhelming. It feels great on your lips, and not super sticky or heavy like other lip colors. The container is also really chic, and looks way more expensive then it really is. I love them! I bought mine at CVS, and they were only 5.99 so a pretty good price. I only have three but I cant wait to get more!

H & M plus size!

I was linked this information from plus size magazine, A awesome online magazine that caters towards plus size fashion and models.
Here is the link -----> http://plus-model-mag.com/

Anywho, I found that H&M is slowly starting to bring in larger size items, I always find H&M confusing with their sizing. somethings are a true size L and others are way to small. My sister who works in the store told me that she has not seen any larger sizes, but she did say that some size 16 jackets came in so that's a good sign! Hopefully moire items will be brought into the store because you cannot get anything online, they need an online store!

How cute is this parka! I want!!

Happy shopping!

Dollar Store Haul!!

Took a little trip to the Dollar Store today, of course to buy things that were not in the beauty section. But I just happened to walk buy so I had to look. I fond some really great products I am so excited about!

The first are these great nail polish pens. Usually these would cost around $5 at CVS, These are sally hanson brand, and they actually work really well. The tip of these is not really like a pen, it is more like a brush tip, but the polish dries really fast and you only need one coat to cover your nails.

I also found some great elf studio products, usually these products cost $3 on the website or in other stores. But I found some cream eye shadows and a lip gloss and they were only $1! This was really my best find, the quality of these is perfect! They go on so smoothly, and last a very long time.  And the lip gloss is really shinny and has a great minty smell to it yum!

Gotta love the dollar store!
 muah!

Kardashians and Makeup

This was supposed to be a test run of our first beautyjunkie video, it didn't go so well. We got distracted with our Kardashian episode and a few good friends. We decided to play makeup artist instead and mess around with my little bag of makeup products, Look how great she looks!

Happy New year!

    I did my sisters makeup and hair tonight, everything was going great until she picked her lip color,  a bright lip was really not the right choice! It is amazing how different lip colors can really change the look!! I used a variety of brands, I really like to mix and match, why only stick to one brand when there are so many!!!
   Here are the products I used!
