Hello blog friends.
I went on another shopping spree recently at Sephora. I'd love to share some of the items I bought.

1. Fenty Beauty - By Rihanna - Hydrating Primer
While on my shopping spree in Sephora I wanted to buy face primer. I was all set to buy a different primer when I was asked to be helped by a sales associate. I wanted to buy Too Faced Hangover face primer after receiving a sample of it that I liked. Well, they showed me the primer by Rihanna and I liked it immediately after they put some on my hand. The primer soaked right into my hand and made my skin feel soft. The color is Soft Silk and the price is $32 and $2 less than the Too Faced primer.
Do you use face primer before you apply your foundation? I never did, but after using the sample from Too Faced it makes a difference. The foundation applies to your face easier and makes it stay on longer.

2. Sephora Quick Clean - Dry Clean - Brush Cleaner
This spray brush cleaner is great for a fast clean for your eye shadow brushes. I decided to give this a try for using my new eye shadow palettes. It gets the brushes clean and it's so easy to use. You just spray the cleaner on your brush and then wipe away on a tissue. The price is $15.

3. Sephora Deep Clean - Solid Brush Cleaner
This is a solid cleaner that is great for getting a deep clean for your makeup brushes. You get your brush wet with water and then run it over the solid soap. I use this when cleaning my Sephora foundation brush. The price of this Sephora solid brush cleaner is $15. I am trying to be better at keeping my brushes clean. I'm applying makeup to my face and I don't want any breakouts or anything.

4. Sephora - Retractable Waterproof Eyeliner
I have been using a dark olive eyeliner lately and I like this one from Sephora. It is waterproof so it stays on better and doesn't wear off after a few hours. The color is 06 Olive and the price is $13. The reason why I have been using olive eyeliner is that it gives my eyes a softer look.

Have you tried out any of these makeup items?

5. MAC Mascara Update
I was given for Christmas this MAC mascara from my sister-in-law. I used it and I thought it was good but the mascara for the upper lashes has already dried out so fast. If you missed that blog post you can read it here. I am using the lower lash mascara in the meantime.

6. New Dashing Diva Gloss Ultra Shine Gel Strips
I just bought these nail gel strips recently at Sally Beauty. I was doing gel manicures at my nail salon for about a year and it made my nails weak. I have been doing regular manicures and I was curious to try out these gel strips. These gel strips are peel and stick. You have to find the right size nail strip to add to the nail. It says on the package that they are to last 14 days. I kept mine on for a week and I like using them. When you are done wearing the gel strips you can peel them right off. Mr. JCL thought that I went to the nail salon to get my nails done. LOL.
Have you tried gel strips and do you like them?
If you have tried out any new makeup that you like, please let me know in the comments section. I'd love to know!

Hello friends. I thought that I would do a fun makeup post since I haven't done one in a while.
In the beginning of the year I love sorting through and organizing my makeup. I throw out what is old, or what I have not used in a while.
After sorting through my makeup, I realized that I needed new mascara, eyeshadow primer, and dry shampoo. I bought a new cover stick (concealer), and an eyebrow shaping set.
Here are the items I bought:

In the beginning of the year I love sorting through and organizing my makeup. I throw out what is old, or what I have not used in a while.
After sorting through my makeup, I realized that I needed new mascara, eyeshadow primer, and dry shampoo. I bought a new cover stick (concealer), and an eyebrow shaping set.
Here are the items I bought:
1) L'Oreal Volumnous Mascara - This is a new mascara that I tried and I love it. My lashes came out looking long and there is no flaking or clumping. I like using black mascara and I sometimes use brown/black.
2) Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion - I never used eyeshadow primer util my daughter recommended it to me after she told me numerous times that my eyeliner was worn off and smudged in spots. When I use this eyeshadow primer, my eyeliner stays on all day with no smudges. I also like that my eyeshadow stays on all day as well. I would defiantly recommend this product.
3) NYC Cover Stick - I absolutely love this cover stick and I use this for under my eyes and around the top of my eye area. I also apply this over my lips when I wear lipstick. Doing that usually makes my lipstick stay on and last longer. I also use a lip liner too.
4) Not Your Mothers Clean Freak Refreshing Dry Shampoo, Unscented - I love this dry shampoo and it's one of my favorites. To read my post on dry shampoo, you can click HERE.
5) EcoTools Brow Shaping Set - I like how the eyebrow brush works and I use it to brush my eyebrow hairs to stand up straight. I like using the other brush to apply eye shadow, but this could also be used to apply color to your eyebrows.
I bought all of these beauty products at ULTA Beauty. It was my first time visiting this store, and I really liked it. ULTA Beauty has everything you need for all of your beauty essentials, at great prices.
When was the last time you went through and sorted out your makeup?
Thanks for stopping by and hope you enjoy the end of the week and weekend. Jess and I will see you all back here on Monday for our Cooking and Crafting with J & J Link Up!
