The Balm Haul

Hey Beauties ❤❤
Hope you are all enjoying your weekends!! Today I wanted to share a few things that I recently ordered off of Hautelook. Back in September I ordered The Balm's Nude Tude palette from Hautelook and have been obsessed with it ever since!! So when I saw that they were on there again I wanted to order some more products. Here is what I ordered.

3 Blush/ Eyeshadows



                                                                    Hot Mamma
                     A gorgeous pink with a peach sheen to it. So pretty for a night out!!

Down Boy
A dust rose mauve blush with a matte finish. 
Frat Boy
A very nice dolly pink. It looks like it has a hint of sheen in the pan but does not transfer onto the skin. 
                                            3 Eyeshadow Palettes that came with 9 shadows each.
Shady Lady Vol. 1
This has 9 huge eyeshadows all in very usable colors. I prefer this palette to Vol.3 because all the colors are so usable!! I love using the top row 2nd & 3rd shadow together for an everyday look!!
                                                                     Shady Lady Vol.3
All the shadows in the Shady Lady palettes are all shimmer. They have a little bit more sheen to them than the Nude Tude palette but are still very workable. 
Meet Matte Nude
These shadows are HUGE!! You can never have to much of a matte eyeshadow!!
I am very happy with everything I bought!! I love all the blushes and palettes. I think I could have done without Shady Lady Vol.3 but I will obviously still get a lot of use out of it!!

My experience with Hautelook......
I have very good and not so good things about my experience. The good point of my experience was their Live chat customer service. Hautelooks flash sales can sell out fast and you can only keep something in your basket for 15 minutes, so when you need a question answered you need it right away. Well I was able to talk to someone and get it figured out in just a few minutes!! That is a feature that I wish all online stores had!!

The bad....International charges. I understand that some companies do charge international fees since I am in Canada (why some do and some don`t I do not understand...) BUT this is something that should be applied with your receipt at the time of transaction. If you are going to charge me $20 extra do not send me another receipt two weeks later. Also both times I have ordered off Hautelook it has taken just over a month for me to receive it........ Really?? Anyways that is my little  rant for the day!!


                      What is your favorite Balm product??

February Favorites

Hey Girly's 
Happy Friday!! This week sure flew by!! Last week my mom and sister moved literally 2 minutes away from me (YAY!!)  So no more 20 minute drives for me  everyday :)
It also means I did a lot of unpacking and organizing (I'm such a good daughter and sister lol!!) But I think we finally got everything set up and figured out!! Anyways, today I wanted to share everything I have been using this month. I found some old loves in my collection and fell in love all over again!!

Revlon Girly
I have been obsessed with this polish every since I bought it back in December. It just makes me happy lol!!

NYX Mega Shine Lip gloss in 129 Beige
Why this is called Beige I don't know. It is clearly Pink and I love that!! It smells like bubble gum which I do not mind although I have heard some complain. The best part is that you don't have to apply this 100 times, it stays on for a very long time!!

                                             Hard Candy Fox in a Box in Spicy and Sweet
I love all my Fox in a Box's but I have been using this one a lot lately. It goes with a lot of looks and gives you a nice rosy complexion. 
                                                    Britney Spears Perfume in Fantasy
An oldy but a goodie. I have been in love with this since I was sixteen and I think I will  always be. It is a delicious sweet scent that is SO girly. I always get compliments when I wear this!!
                                       Bath and Body Works My Favorite Night Balm
Someone gave this to me for Christmas and I have been using it ever since. It may not last 8 hours (what I'm guessing 'overnight' means) but it lasts longer then any other chap stick I own. I will defiantly be repurchasing this!!
                                           Almay Nearly Naked Foundation in Tan
I don`t really know why I strayed away from this foundation. I don`t wear foundation on an every day base because my skin is so dry and sensitive but this makes it more bearable when I do. It is the only foundation I have tried that I don`t want to take off after 2 hours which really says a lot!!

What are you guys loving this month?? Did you rediscover any old favorite products??
