First World Problems at Buckle

In my mall there is a store called Buckle. I haven't ever been in it before until today when I was finishing up my school shopping. And I probably won't be going back! First- whenever I saw a cute shirt I wanted, they didn't have it anywhere on a rack! They only had it on those cheap plastic things that hang from the very tops of the racks. Second, they had a really weird sizing for jeans. You have to know your length and your width. So I had an employee help me find the right size of jeans, and she was glad to help! (which was nice.) While I was trying on the pair, she went ahead and picked out three more for me to try on. I didn't ask her to, but I appreciate how willing she was  to help. It got a little weird when she showed up at my fitting room with a few shirts and two pairs of shoes to try on. Now I'm all for helping a customer with finding products, but she wasn't really helping; she was choosing things for me! Basically I had a bad experience because she was pushy and I felt really awkward when she would bring me all these items that I didn't want! Plus, they were a bit pricey. ($78 for one pair of jeans!)

Long story short- I didn't leave that store with anything.
Anyways, this trip concluded my school shopping! I'll get a post up about everything as soon as I can. Again I'm very busy- Last weekend before school :(

See you soon! xx

An Update

It feels like I haven't posted in a while! Yesterday I spent the night with a friend, and I have been really busy getting ready for school and studying for a chemistry test I have the first week.
Anyways, I have so many reviews to write! Recently I bought a lighted makeup mirror, 15 nail art brushes, Jergens natural glow lotion, a new foundation bottle, and tomorrow I'm going school shopping again!
Expect some reviews tonight :)
And yesterday I tried water marbling for the first time! Surprisingly it worked really well for my first time, and it looks really cool with the micro beads for an accent nail. I'll post some tips on how to do it correctly once I'm done with all the reviews. It's a little tricky! 
See you soon! xx

Microbead Accent Nails

For my first time, I think it turned out quite nicely! Honestly, I did not have the patience to do this on all of my nails. Good thing I started with this one! It's very tedious work.

How I used them:
I put a glob of base coat on a paper plate so I could dip the toothpick into it and then dot it on my nail where I wanted the beads to go. I only used base coat because I didn't want to waste my top coat. After that all you had to do was pick up the beads with the toothpick and put them where they needed to go. Wait for them to settle before you put on top coat! I learned the hard way that if you put top coat on too soon they move all around. But they're very easy to push back :) Finish with two layers of top coat and you're finished!
I really had fun working with these and I can't wait to do it again :)

See you soon! xx

I just did my nails with micro beads for the first time! Surprisingly they're pretty sturdy, but very time consuming. I wouldn't recommend using them if you have little patience.

Pictures will be up soon! 

My Back to School Makeup!

Hi everyone! I'm back from my beautiful vacation :( I have been waiting to post this! These are all the new products I got for back to school. Enjoy!

Rimmel Stay Matte translucent finishing powder. I haven't ever used this before, but I didn't have enough money to get the powder by Revlon so I settled for this! It was $3.97 at Walmart.

My FAVORITE Revlon Colorstay foundation! I get the normal/ dry skin formula. $9.98 at Walmart.

Neutrogena Skin Clearing Concealer. I've used this for a long time and I love it! $8.97 at Walmart. (I thought it was a lot cheaper than that!! I should have looked at the price before I got it.)

Maybelline Age Rewind Dark Circle concealer. I haven't ever used this before either! $7.49 at Walmart.

NYC Primer. I have a feeling this isn't going to work so well; I've never used it before. The formula is a bit liquidy, and it smells like sunscreen. I'll give it a shot though! $3.57 at Walmart.

Maybelline Eyebrow pencil. There was only one shade for blondes, but it fits! $5.97.

After I've had a chance to use all the products, I will post separate reviews on all of them. I'm really excited to try them :)

See you soon! xx 

Caren Original Lip Treatment review

While I was shopping around in South Haven I walked into a store that sold all of the Caren products. I didn't have much money left but I felt I needed to try something! I chose the lip treatment for around $3. I really love it! It smells a little like play-dough, but it tastes great. It goes on very smoothly, and it moisturizes, protects, and it long wearing. I'm really excited about the aloe that's inside of it because there's the proof that it moisturizes. I love to put it on before I go to the beach because it feel as if it creates a barrier between my lips and the sun. Since I've used it my lips haven't peeled, or dried out completely at night. My lips feel soft, smooth, and they aren't sticky :)

Below i'll put a link to the website that sells all the Caren products, and I'll also put one that links to the exact product I bought.
I really recommend this and I can't wait to try all of the other products!

Hi everyone! I wish I could be posting every day but I just don't have the time! 
A quick update: Yesterday I was walking through the stores they have downtown here, and I stumbled upon a wheel of nail art micro-beads!!! I'm so excited I don't have to order anything off ebay anymore. It was at a random toy store, and I couldn't resist! I'm coming home in two days and since my nails have been un-done all week I can't wait to use them. I will probably post a picture of the wheel with my phone (I forgot my camera) later in the day.
The stores in South Haven are great! I think they're mostly family owned. Some of them can be a little pricey, including my favorite sea glass store. I had to take my little sister there because while we were walking on the beach I found a small piece of sea glass and she had to have one too. :)
When my trip is all over I will be sure to post pictures of everything I bought here :)

And another update: I got all my back to school makeup shopping done here, too! I spent around $50 on primer, foundation, concealer, under eye concealer,  powder, and an eyebrow pencil! When I can get to my camera there will be lots more details about all of that later! Look forward to it on Saturday :)

See you soon! xx
