Studio ELF Brushes & Bronze w/ Purple FOTD!

I received my E.L.F Studio Brushes in the mail today.. and I am very pleased. I love the sleek look of them.. and they are very well worth the $3. The bristles are extremely soft. I've been playing around with them all day. I am loving the flat top powder brush and the blush brush. Highly Recommended! I actually applied my foundation with the flat top brush.. it worked well but it was extremely difficult to clean. I think i'll just keep using it for powder/msf's.

Here's a look I did for tonight. I could not for the life of me get a good picture.

my necklace turned upside down for the peekchure. :'(

For my look today.. I only used the NYX Trio Eyeshadow Palette in Serengeti.. mainly to show the colors of that palette.. and not to get mixed up with other colors/brands. I'll have more looks to come. This was just something quick I did this morning experimenting. Also I just wanted to comment on the quality of the trio. Like I said before.. I think its really great quality. The colors are very silky and soft and when applied these were very bright and pigmented with a little shimmer. I love this palette!

dang my hair looks long in this picture! no extensions.. :)

yeah, yeah.. most people can't stand kissy faces.. but it shows my eyes opened.. and I didn't have many decent eye pics. haha, my friends use to tease me because I would kind of pucker my lips when I apply lip gloss or look at myself in my compact mirror.. and they would call it the Zoolander face.

These flowers by my house are soo pretty.. had to take a picture :) Lately, I've been taking pictures of everything. lol

Cherryculture Haul: All NYX!

I was so excited coming home this morning and seeing a Cherry Culture box sitting on the table! I was hoping my E.L.F purchase was going to come at the same time.. but hopefully I should get that either tomorrow or the day after. I'm VERY pleased with how fast the shipment was! I placed the order last Wednesday night.. so it took 5 days.

I didn't waste any time to bust open the box!! Everything was packed well, nothing was missing or broken.

I am honestly ecstatic with my order. I was not disappointed with even one thing! I am soo happy with everything. I actually want to order more.. and I think I probably will. I think I can honestly say.. Out with MAC.. in with NYX. $40 for all of this!?? That's insane to me.

The reason I didn't do swatches yet is because my camera died exactly on the last picture I took.. so right now my camera is charging. Check back soon for swatches!
