Hey beauties sorry it has been so long but yall know it takes a while for me to get a haul together for yall and the reviews. I did get a few things for Black Friday and Cyber Monday Christmas and the most recent is from tax time, but most of it was gifts for other people so most of it is gone. What I did get and have got recently I will be happy to show you and give reviews so here it is the long awaited and recent haul. First the biggest thing I got Cyber Monday was my phone I got the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and it is everything I ever needed in a phone. I needed a new one and it was time for an upgrade from my Samsung Galaxy S2. I was a bit apprehensive because the Note 3 was so much bigger than my S2 but I got used to it and glad I got it. Amazing pictures great 4glte speed and the resolution is amazing I know that they are coming out with new phones now but more than likely I will stick with my Note 3 I just love it. Next my mom got me a few things from Coastal Scents I got the REVEALED PALETTE I like it it’s the perfect set of nude eye shadows. I didn’t have any at all I just have a big colorful palette from BHCOSMETICS which I love but I had a few single nude eye shadows but not many so this was an amazing gift from my mom pics will be below. She also got me the Coastal Scents 10 blush palette and, the Coastal Scents Eclipse palette both are awesome both thing have been well used I was super excited to get them she even uses them both the blush shades are very pigmented and smooth and very easy to work with in my opinion. The Eclipse Concealer palette is very good for me I always have trouble finding my foundation shade and can never decide on a concealer but the Eclipse palette was a very awesome gift it’s so versatile and I can mix whatever I need to for my skin I will say it is creamy but not as creamy as other concealers I have tried it does take a little bit to warm it up but I just rub between my fingers for a bit and it’s good to go. The next thing is Coastal Scent CITISCAPE TRAVEL BRUSH SET I haven’t used them yet but they are really soft and I do have other Coastal Scents brushes that I love so I’m sure these are just as amazing as them. They are great for travel they come in their own little pouch and have a little pocket to store a few things in also they wouldn’t take up to much space when traveling pic of that to follow also. On to tax time stuff I bought for myself I finally ordered the Crown Brush Set I wanted off of crownbrush.com i wanted the set for a while and it finally got it there was not many reviews on this set but I took the chance and got them anyway it is the Crown Brush 10pc SYNTHO SET, they are super soft I have not used them yet either I, trying to use my other brushes before I use them so that will be my next review but I do have pics to go with. The other thing I bought myself I was a bit disappointed after several uses of it so I would not recommend this It is the BUNDLE MONSTER 4PC Pro Blender Puff Sponge these I thought might be a dupe for the Beauty Blender. I was sadly mistaken I thought I could get the set of 4 for $10 and they would at least be ok but after using one it did double in size once it was wet and it did help with my foundation so that was a plus but after maybe a few uses and a few cleanings it started getting cracks in it and pieces coming off and I had only used it 3 times. I haven’t had the Beauty Blender so I can’t compare but from the reviews I saw were not that good pics to follow. The last two makeup items I recently bought beside staple items I bought Maybelline The Rocket Mascara I love this I saw a review on it and was like I have to try it I usually end up switching mascaras after a while but this one I love and I’m on my 2nd tube so this one is here to stay. I got it in waterproof and in black and it stays put no problem with me at work all day and running around no smudge marks or anything. It gives me great volume and looks really black so I’m good to go for mascara. I also got the Milani eye shadow primer love it no creasing my eye shadow stays all day and all night I went to sleep with it on by accident and when I woke up it was still just as bright and no creasing when I put it on so I am sticking with this eye shadow primer to. The last thing is I finally bought a laptop a Asus 15.6in with 8.1 windows so no longer using my phone to write blogs so there will be a lot more to come since I have proper means to write them. I am still learning the windows 8.1 so I can’t give a decent review yet so when I’m done learning I will give a review so far so good though if yall would like a more in depth review on the other products leave some comments and will be happy to write more pics will be below of the makeup products so until next time always remember let your beauty shine through
