April Humble Beauty Opinion #65 & Sunday Shopping!


Usually the last saturday of every month is my monthly Humble Beauty Opinion post
 but since it was the ABBA Furnace Party in Philly, I wanted to share...

So a bit of a combo post with some Humble Beauty Opinions 
& some Sunday Shopping!

Starting with my monthly beauty subscriptions:
I love this month's Ipsy bag, I love the lemon print on the bag, 
the"Moods" eyeshadow in "Rose Gold Woman" packaging is so cool and the color is pretty, 
I also love the LAW Beauty Essentials polish in "Purrrplicious",
theBalm Cosmetics lip stain in Namaste is pretty too

I also redeemed this Coconude gloss from Seraphine Botanicals with some of my Ipsy points 
& I have been enjoying it

This month I also got an Allure Beauty Box
after seeing that it was a collab with the YouTuber Carli Bybel!



It arrived late last week so I have yet to enjoy the products but I am very excited!

Unfortunately the cute clear clutch that they arrived in ripped right away which was disappointing, 
not sure I will keep this as a monthly subscription...


Not a whole lot on my monthly makeup wishlist this month, 
but I do love the color of this "Zoya Fern" nail polish as seen on their instagram:

In other news, have you been watching Game Of Thrones?!
This show is CRAZY! Can't wait for the episode tonight!
Also have been loving this Urban Decay x Game Of Thrones collaboration:

Especially those little sword brushes! 

This month's empties, what I used up, loved, hated & all my humble opinions in between:
bath: Revlon Colorsilk "Deep Burgundy"- my usual monthly hair dye / Vichy "Pore Purifying Clay Mask"- I like this face mask but the packaging is terrible, I put it into a little pot and enjoyed it / Dr. Bronner's "All-One Hemp Peppermint Pure-Castile Bar Soap" x2- this is a favorite in my house / equate makeup remover wipes x2- these are my favorite makeup wipes, I get them at Walmart. I like the scent and they have the right amount of moisture to take my makeup off / alba botanica "hawaiian 3-in-1 clean towelettes- I got these at Marshalls in Baltimore, these on the other hand were terrible, I did not like them at all / Garnier Whole Blends "Oat Delicacy"- I liked these and would consider purchasing them when I am in the market / Marajo "Nourishing Cleansing Creme" x2 & "Deep Treatment Butter"- I liked these they smelled nice but this kind of packing is so annoying to use in the shower / Dr. Lin "Acne Spot Corrector"- I have had this for a long time I think it worked, my husband liked it / Up & Up "Skin Refreshing Apricot Scrub"- this is a good generic for the St. Ives but I do think the original is still the best / Tresemme "Fresh Start"- a good dry shampoo but it has a strong scent that lingers / CVS "Skin Purifying Astringent"- I like this and have had this one for while but I am looking forward to trying a different one with witch hazel / OUAI Shampoo & Conditioner- I love the scent of these products and enjoyed these samples / Taste "Rainforest of the Sea"- I found this in my makeup stash and decided to try it out and I LOVED it! Does an amazing job at taking off my eye makeup / Garnier SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water- I didn't think I would like this but it does a nice job taking off my makeup / Brickwall matches- if you haven't used matches as a way to umm help with the scent after using the restroom, what are you doing?! / Sephora clay mask- this was a nice face mask, gets nice and tight / Scentsy "Satin Sheets"- I loved this scent, I need to get more!

beauty: MD SolarScience "Daily Eye Repair Emulsion" x3- I got this at Vision Expo and I think it is my favorite eye cream! I love how it feels / bhcosmetics "Galaxy Chic Eclipse" baked eyeshadow- I love this purple color, I depotted it to be able to use it more / Versace "Bright Crystal"- I liked this scent but it was nothing too special / Harvey Prince "Perfumista"- I like Harvey Prince perfumes, this one is not my favorite but it was nice / Eite Paris Matt Liner in brown- I like brown eyeliners but I did not like the color or the forumla of this one, it may just be past it's prime / eyebrow spooly- I got this from Sephora I think and I love them for brushing out my brows after adding product, this one needed to be changed out / Innisfree "intensive hydration serum" - this was nice but I am not sure I would purchase, left the skin a little too tacky / Moroccanoil "Root Boost"- I used this as an all over moose and really enjoyed it, I would repurchase! / Tidal Brightening Enzyme Water Cream from Sunday Riley- I was expecting to like this more than I did, it smells a little weird and was not particularly moisturizing / Drunk Elephant Lala Retro Whipped Cream- this moisturizer on the other hand was quite moisturizing I know these products are quite expensive but it was nice to have a sample / Lancome "Hydra Zen"- I liked this moisturizer but there was not a lot of product in this sample / Sunday Riley "Good Genes"- I am not sure I liked this product or used it correctly but it did smell great / Trust Fund Beauty "No Filter"- I got this from Ipsy and am sad to see it go but it is so goopy and not useable anymore / Wet n Wild "Porcelain" Photofocus foundation- this is a nice basic foundation but it does have a bit of a paint smell to it...


& now for a little Sunday Shopping,
this meme shared by whowhatwearcollection on Instagram is SO accurate:

I haven't been to Target in months so I had to check out their latest Who What Wear pieces,
mainly I really wanted to get those tan & white gingham pants.
Those pants were my #1 thing on my spring wishlist & I love them!

Also picked up this green sweater for like $9!


Also found this leopard turtle neck in the sales section and had to take it home for $6!

I know 2/3 pieces I got are not exactly Spring... but I am excited to wear them next fall!

I also loved the print on these Wild Fable jeans:

While I was at Target I found my favorite candles "Cozy Nights" and had to pick one up! 
I haven't had one of these in a while and they are so good!

I think whowhatwearcollection on Instagram just gets it...


Happy April HBO!
On a different HBO note, 
if you need me I will be nervously watching tonight's episode of GOT

I though this iron throne that timeoutnewyork shared on Instagram 
from Rockefeller Center is SO COOL!

Might have to take a detour home and see if it is still there...

Do Attend. ABBA Letter + Toynbee Tiles

Anyone remember in February when people were receiving these strange 
"ABBA" letters in Philly?

Well today is the steel furnace day...
Do attend.
{source: resetera.com}

Philadelphia even named the Steel Furnace as one of the things to do this weekend:
I first starting hearing about this on Twitter and from Qcknd on YouTube


Qcknd make an interesting connection to the Toynbee Tiles possibly being from Philly, 
which lead me to watching the interesting documentary "Resurrect the Dead"
& while walking to work the other day I actually spotted a Toynbee Tiles
at one of the intersections in Herald Square:


So are you attending?
Philly is planning a party in that vacant lot apparently...



What I Wore: Zenni Optical, lips- Revlon "Sweetheart Valentine" & Ciate Lip Lustre "Kiss Me", earrings- Etsy, necklace- Village Silver shop in Salem, MA, jacket- Target {was my sister Bianca's}, t-shirt- Maggie Rogers concert in Philly, jeans- Whoa Wait Walmart, loafers- Kohls


Definitely earned a commuter beer this week, 
really enjoying this Blue Point "Hazy Bastard"
{nail polish: Essie "blue-tiful horizon"}
