My Vanity/ Makeup Organization

Hey gorgeous gals I decided to just do an overview in pictures of my Vanity/Makeup organization. I decided to do this because I love to see others makeup organization and collections. I didn't go into detail because I'm considering doing a video of my collection so this is just kind of an overview.


My vanity itself is the Malm Vanity from Ikea I love the clean lines of this piece.

The clear acylic drawer units on the right are from Organizeit.com as seen in a previous post.

The white wire caddy on the left hand side of the pic I use to hold my palettes is from a local thrift store

A peek inside the bottom 3 drawer Units Face and Cheek products

The middle units Contain Eye shadow Palettes and lip products, The top unit contain eyeshadow bases, gel liners, and pigments

This is the white wire caddy I use to hold my palettes. It holds quite a few palettes I store 5 M.A.C palettes, an Urban Decay Book of Shadows, and my BH cosmetics Blush palette in there.

I havent abandoned you

I haven't abandoned my blog and my lovely followers. Admittedly my interest had waned over the past few months. It could possibly be that I feel like I'm hiding. If anyone has noticed there are no pics of myself posted besides my lone and rather small profile pic Ive been loathe to expose myself to the criticism of these cruel innanets. I have decided to come out of hiding though I have a feeling that this will reignite my passion for blogging and open up the possibilities for new topics. So I will introduce you to ME (prepare yourselves for pic spam with crappy phone pics)

Hauling! NYX

I have been hauling a lot over the past 2 months. I purchased quite a few things from the brands NYX, MAC, BH cosmetics, Coastal Scents, and Napolean Perdis. I have decided to break the Hauls up into the individual brands so that I can post in depth about each group of items. I'm gonna start with my items from the brand NYX. NYX is a low end brand that can be found for reasonable prices in beauty supply stores or online. The eyeshadows and blushes offer great pigmentation for the price. This brand is great for makeup beginners who don't have a lot of money to invest in products.
I purchased the Box of Smokey Look Collection Palette from HauteLook at a great price. Regular price is $22.00 I got it from HauteLook for $13.00. The palette contains eye shadows to create gray smokey eyes, purple smokey eyes, bronze smokey eyes, and natural smokey eyes. It also contains 3 blushes, contour, highlight and bronzer powder, concealers, lip glosses, 12 glitter creams and 1 black eyeliner.
I purchased the long pencils from Cherry Culture for $1.99 each and the short pencils from my local beauty supply for the same price. I have the colors Black, Dark Brown, White, Caberet, Nude, Pinky, Coral, and Orange.
Here are some swatches
Also I purchased 11 round lipsticks for $2.99 each I depotted them and put them in these clear containers The colors are Peach Bellini, Chloe, Hot Pink, Pink Lyric, Baby Pink
Pure Nude, Tea
Medusa, Pure Red, Hebe, Helio
I purchased a Black Jumbo eye pencil from Cherry Culture for $3.50 and a Hot Pink one from my local beauty supply store for $3.99 I purchased these to use a bases.
Also I purchased the white eyeshadow base from Sears it was far too expensive there and I should have just got it from Cherry Culture when I got my other items. I love the white base it really makes colors pop. Those are all of the NYX items I picked up. Next post I will show the MAC items that I picked up so check back for that post. Thanks for reading gorgeous Gals please feel free to comment or ask any questions below.

Amazing Deals

Hey Gorgeous Gals I'm back to let you know about a couple of Amazing Deals Ive discovered this week.
The first deal is offered a new favorite site of mine Haute Look. I love this site and check it out everyday from the Android app on my phone. Yesterday I went to go take a look at the deals being offered and was so excited to see Napoleon Perdis makeup. Napoleon Perdis is an Australian Makeup artist with his own high end makeup brand. I've heard some good things about the makeup so I was excited to see that I could try it at a discounted price. I couldn't resist and I purchased the Luxe All Night Palette which has very bright eyeshadows normally $49 I purchased it for $25 ( a 49% savings!). It includes 4 blushes 4 eyeshadows and 4 lip glosses. First pic is of the palette I snagged can't wait for it to come.

Here's my link to join the site please click and join when anyone use's my link to join I'm eligible for a $10 credit! Haute Look Link Click Me
The second deal is from BH Cosmetics remember that really popular 88 eyeshadow palette that you've seen all over YouTube well they sell it and at a better price then the other seller everyone gets it from. They also sell brushes, Lip glosses, and other makeup bits. Right now they are having a Mid Year Sale and the palettes are at an awesome discount. I would love to get the 88 color Palette in Matte ( I'm really into Matte shadows lately) originally $18.95 for just $10.42!

I have a little mini haul post coming up I couldn't resist that NYX sale that Haute Look had and I purchased a palette. I hope you Gorgeous Gals found this post helpful. Please feel free to comment or ask any Questions.
