yeah I started to think about that also haha If i remember correctly I believe they have plastic one now UGH!! But I'm gonna ask him anyways cause maybe they have some on the side they don't use since they are old.. but not gonna keep my hopes up

 
They guy who was going to toss out the old Coca Cola stuff. Even if it's not from the 40s or 50s there is still value in old Coke products stuff. It's not much but that piece of "junk" that he was about to toss and that you rescued is probably worth a few bucks. Let him know ANY Coke products stuff should be set aside and seen by specialist.

Oh I did! But alas, there were only the three crates, which I brought home. One was a Dr Pepper crate! :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
My first elf order came in!! Yay!



I was out running errands and spotted a Sally's Beauty so I stopped in and shopped the clearance section:



Many many moons ago, in another lifetime, I used to be a glorified manicurist (I had a cosmo license but wound up only really liking to do nails). I was especially popular for my nail art. I've been itching to see if I can do it again. :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I had to rearrange my area cause I've added to my nail polish collection. :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I love the brush holder from elf, that has been a life saver!



Some close ups of the other items I got:

Nailpolish I picked up for a video tutorial I will be trying to do soon:

Thanks!! I played with them today and did a FOTD. I may have even found my standard look. I absolutely love the shimmer even with the creasing issue.

To be honest, I got my first elf palette from Haute and it took them almost a MONTH to get it to me. This time I ordered directly from elf and yeah, it cost me a few dollars more but I had it in under a week.  For me, it was worth it. 

I just placed another order with them and upgraded to 3 day delivery since I was getting so much and with the promo, the difference between standard and 3 day was $2. :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
e.l.f Mineral Eye Shadow from top to bottom

  Celebrity - Love how this one shines, will certainly have to work this one into my routine. Earthy - love love love this green. I've always been afraid to wear the color but the more I play with it, the more I fall in love with it. Elegant - This one will probably be used more as a highlighter than anything else, it doesn't show up to well against my skin tone. Sassy - LOVE IT! See this one being used quite a bit as a crease color. Temptress - I really wanted to love this as an eye shadow but it's simply too sheer a color. As a blush however, I might play with it and see.     From top to botton:   Golden - I was a little concerned with this pot. The color looked very serious however once I swept it on, it became very soft.  I can certainly see this being used for one of those romantic night out. Caffeinated - I have a serious love of browns. Until recently, that is all my make up consisted of and while I probably didn't do myself any favors here, I love this color. Wild - This is a wonderful color, I really like how it pops. Confidant - Certainly how this color will make me feel! Socialite - I can see this one being used as a smokey eye effect. Something  I still need to practice my hand at and this should play into that very well!     I'm going to be a ton of reviews on my blog so keep an eye out! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
 
Great hauls Pancua!  Not sure what you think of the Benefit High Beam, but I don't suppose you have Benefit's One Hot Minute powder?  I love love LOVE using a little High Beam on my cheeks, then using One Hot Minute on top of it as a blush--it is really pretty!  If you don't have One Hot Minute you could always use another loose bronzer--I would think it would look much the same. 

Way to go on all the awesome hauls!

 
I got high beam in the Sephora Glitz and Glam set I got awhile back. So far, I haven't had much cause to use it. I was thinking of taking it with me on my trip in May since there will be a formal night.

 
I have lovedlovedloved my MAC Zoom Fast Black Lash mascara since I got it. 

After a really crappy day last night, I was looking over my make up and realized, it was one of the first make up purchases I made. Which was over 2 years ago! eek! I went back and found the MAC consultation sheet I had done and sure enough, it'd been 2 years back in Dec. 

Needless to say, it was time for new mascara! Since it was a school night, I didn't get home until late and I wasn't really feeling like waiting for the MAC stores to open so I headed over to the HEB (grocery store) near my house. I wasn't sure what brand I wanted, I figured I'd peruse and see what jumped out at me. 

What jumped out at me was Maybelline's The Falsies Volume Express Flared. I liked the packaging, I'll be honest. When it came right down to which one, it was all about which Ooh! Shiny! stood out the most. This morning I did a mascara comparison and wow...what a difference!

And a side by side (Maybelline on your left, MAC on your right)

 

I may have a new mascara love for awhile.   :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Hit Ulta for the first time today!

There was a $3.50 off $10 purchase coupon on the website so I printed it and headed on over. I was actually looking for the Beauty Blender but this particular Ulta had never heard of it. Ah well, I will just pick it up at Wal-Greens. 

Then I noticed they were having an NYX sale (B1G150%) so I picked up the NYX Xtreme Lip Cream in Buttery Nude and Absolute Red I've been coveting! Since it wasn't quite enough to qualify for the coupon, I got a nail file. Total after coupon: $7 :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />



I love love love the absolute red!



I'm not too sure about Buttery Nude but I could grow to like it:



 
aww that's too bad! I was hoping you'd score more than that!

I'd completely forgotten about this ebay purchase last month! These will be fun to play with.
