Humble Beauty Opinion #7

Apparently I've been doing quite a lot of beauty shopping…
At Lord & Taylor, I finally scored the Dior Lip Glow that changes to the perfect pink 
& got a sample of a primer! 
I also found the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick in Apricot 

love this lipstick!

I also got a sample of the Bombshell in Bloom from Victoria's Secret, 
I am loving it & will probably get a bottle!
At Sephora I got the Too Faced "Better Than Sex Amazing Eye Set" 
& let me tell you, it lives up to it's name!
It is definitely one of my favorite mascaras I have used & I was surprised I like the eyeliner as much as I do! For like $12 it was a great sample! Will definitely buy a full size when this one is done 

I was also so excited to score this free sample of the new Urban Decay "Perversion" mascara,
I like it, not as much as the Too Faced one but it does a nice job of separating the lashes, 
in combination they are perfect!  

I had my first experience at Lush,
I have always wanted to go in but I found it a little overwhelming and with too much stuff,
But I was taken in by Joan in the Quakerbridge Mall, NJ Lush and showed the whole store!
I took home a toner because I haven't been using one, a perfume in the vanilla scent, and Happy Hippy body wash, Love Lettuce face mask, & lots of samples. 
I am LOVING the "Hello Gorgeous" face lotion, 
I know the bottle is expensive but it is on my wish list!
I also went on a hunt for Kate Spade Twirl because it is being discontinued & finally found it at Kohl's,
along with this super cute "Smoke Balm" mini palette from the Balm,
I love the dark green shadow!
I also stopped by Rite Aid to re-dye my hair & pick up some Jessie's Girl pigments that I have heard good things about, I also picked up the Rimmel lip liner in "East End Snob" both recommended by CoffeeBreakwithDani on youtube 

Which lead to a pampering night =)


I also went to CVS and picked up TONS of lip products that have been on my wish list for quite some time,

I am obsessed with these Revlon lip stains! Happy to add these 4 to my collection, 

Also got two Rimmel lip products in "Let's Get Naked" and one of the Kate Spade lips in #17,
I am LOVING both of these for a pink/nude color!

I also got two Wet & Wild Lip sticks from the Fergie collection in "V.I. Pink" & "Fuchsianista",
excited to try these!

One of my favorite lip products that I recently tried is this NYC duo lipstick in "The Red Hots" 
definitely a perfect red for me and I have already purchased one for my sister & a backup, 
at $1 I couldn't resist!

I also got the "Berry Amore" Milani Baked Blush! 

I was so excited to finally try these Sally Hansen Color Foil Polishes, 
I love metallic nails and these seem to have a lot of promise,
the "Sterling Silver" will be tomorrow's Mani Monday! 
The red, white and blue will be perfect for the 4th of July!

 I have also heard amazing things about the Sally Beauty Supply eye shadows from Emily Noel's Beauty Broadcast on youtube, you click them together to build a palette,

I am loving the pink shades & the Cinnamon red!
They are my favorite eye shadows at the moment!


I love blue shadows too, I have been eying this NYX blue from shopamylynn on instagram,
& I love mini Coastal Sense shadows!
I was excited to see that this month's ipsy had a Rebecca Minkoff pouch!
Love the NYX gloss & the beach spray may be the favorite I have tried!
The blue eyeliner is interesting and was perfect for an 'Merica party & will be for the 4th of July,

My second PinchMe came in and I love the Dove shampoo, I will be purchasing them!
Barry ate the dog treat in a minute, & the nail polish is pretty too!

Also ordered my 3rd PinchMe!

Next new samples are released Tuesday July 15th! 

I am not the only one with new beauty favorites, 
the hubby ordered the sample set from DreamBeard on etsy & has been trying out different oils!
Happy Humble Beauty Opinion #7!

I love today's mani too!
