Milani Bella Eye Shadows

Milani. When I think about the brand, I see pretty gold packaging and not much else really. Well, then they came out with the Bella Eye Shadows. They have polishes too, but they don't have them here that I've found yet. I admit, I really like the ones that I bought. I only bought 4 of them, and I do plan on buying more.

When I heard that these were out, I stalked my Walgreens. I got 4 of them to just try out to see if I would like them. Oh, boy, do I! I got 4 neutral colors simply because I wanted to be sure that I would like them. I always figure go for the neutral colors before the racier colors to test. Well, I have to say, they are wonderful! They truly remind me a lot of Urban Decay or Lorac. More Lorac than Urban Decay though. True pigmitation and wonderful color payoff. I didn't see a single fall-out while using them!

New Milani Bella Eyeshadows

While I do love the packaging, I really wish that Milani would have just put these into palettes, cause singles can take up a lot of room. But, packaging isn't really my concern. It's the products inside that I'm most fascinated with. Ivory is a color I have been using the most with any eye shadow I have lately. I blends beautifully and a perfect compliment to any color.

Espresso is a rich dark brown that reminds me of the drink. A nice rich coffee to brighten your eyes. Pink was a bit harder to work. While it didn't go with the browns that well in my opinion, it worked well with Ivory and other pink shades. Champagne is such a beautiful bronze color that blended so well. You didn't need much of it to achieve a beautiful, amazing glow with it. Works wonders with green eyes.

Swatches

I will say these are some buttery shadows. They blend easily and are heavenly feeling. You don't want to miss out on these that's for sure! These are on sale I believe at Walgreens for $4.99. Not bad at all and if you have points, you can knock the price even lower!  This is a perfect product for those starting out in make-up to the most advanced in make-up. I do believe this is part of the permanent line, so they will be around, but prices may go up, so get them while you can!

So head to your nearest Walgreens, CVS, Rite Aid, anywhere that carries these and grab them. You won't be sorry!

Another MAC collection? A Novel Romance Collection

I'll be honest. I was not sent this collection, but I did get an email telling me all about it and I saw it on Facebook, of course. I MUST HAVE THIS COLLECTION. It's coming out next month, and I think I want it for my birthday, lol. Hint hint darling! But, seriously, I am in love with this collection. And yeah, I like some of the lipsticks and glasses, but it's the eyeliners and eye shadows that I want! Anyone ever feel like that? I normally don't get on the hypes from the MAC collections, but this one hits me and describes me perfectly. I love romance novels. I love to curl up on the couch and just read.

Well, for fall, I'm going to be my own romance novel. I'm going to get me this collection, cause it's calling my name! I may spend more money than it's worth, but it'll be worth it to me! I'm currently looking for pictures and swatches to add to this, but you may have to wait until I buy it, lol. Sorry. Mac didn't deem me special enough to send me the collection to try, lol. I wish they did though! It would be fun to try something before anyone else! Maybe next time!

As soon as I get pictures and such, I will post ASAP. I promise!!!!

Meanwhile, if you need to see the collection before I get it, go check this lovely lady out on her blog:

Search for "Unicorn Piss", the search for Past Collection Cosmetics PT. 3

That's right, I finally found a website that isn't EBAY or AMAZON to get cosmetics from the past. It's http://www.allcosmeticswholesale.com . I love this site! Granted, the website does have current cosmetics, but the Unicorn Piss that I've been looking for? They had it. At a REASONABLE price no less! From this website, I've found limited or discontinued edition cosmetics way below what you would expect to pay for it. I found current items that were 5-10 dollars CHEAPER than in store! Now that's my kind of store!

Now, on my quest to find my "Unicorn Piss" cosmetics, I've found many, many, many websites that offered fake brand name stuff, such as Urban Decay, MAC and so forth. But this site write a guarantee that everything you receive or that they advertise is 100% authentic. Seeing something like that makes me at least want to try the site out, to see if it's true. Well.....I took the plunge. I tried out their products, and I took them to Ulta, Sephora and MAC to be sure that they are 100% authentic as ACW (All Cosmetics Wholesale) claimed that they were. I was so sure that at least half of it would be fake, that if anything, I got some cool stuff, right? Nope. It was all real.

I do have to say, as I looked over the website, and started looking at prices, I will once again state, had some amazing prices and some of the prices were over priced to MY taste on some of it, and right on target to the department store prices. Now, I do get that their harder to find products will have a bit higher prices, so I wasn't bothered by that at all. I didn't have a problem with any of the prices actually. I was content to see the prices and know that with those prices comes great customer service, fast shipping and exceptional products.

Yes, I of course have pictures of the site and of the products that I've received.
