A Taste of Blood

I am currently deciding what nail look to do for a scene on a shoot that I will be working on.

 Thank you to my hubs for being my hand model (pictures above). 

This one I wanted it simple and just get them dirty for the scene. 

Now I am thinking of doing a mixture of both but try to cut the blood down a bit. 
So basically all that was used:
  • Nail Polish (blood red, brown, black, and a yellow)
  • Black Eyeliner
  • Sugarpill Sweetheart & Broken Heart palette, Bulletproof
  • Coastal Scents Go Palette Cairo
 Have to keep sketching and thinking of what I will be doing for it really. 

Scattered about!

Been pretty busy lately with a lot of projects going on.  So here are some looks that I did over the weekend that I never got around to posting.  Please excuse the mess!

Uh-oh! FiS moment!

So I went back to Walgreens since that 50% off Rimmel is going on until Saturday, and I knew I had to pick up some other stuff.  Don't forget if you are planning on buying some Rimmel, make sure to check out my other FiS for coupons on it.  You can seriously save some major bucks!
The two packs of Makeup Remover from Nature's Care is a 15 sheet, and I bought them at Rite-aid.  They were $1.99 each, and wanted something to try out new for wipes.

All the Rimmel London items I bought at Walgreens.  Seriously this sale + the coupon is just way too awesome! 
Rimmel London snagged up:
  • Clean Finish Foundation - Ivory (was for my bestie, but it's the wrong shade OPP.  So just going to go back and exchange it.) Original Price $5 sum Sale price $2.74 - $1 coupon
  • Gentle Eye Makeup Remover Original Price $7 sum Sale price $3.74 - $1 coupon
  • Volume Accelerator Mascara Original Price $9 sum Sale Price $4.74 - $1 coupon
  • Lash Accelerator Mascara Original Price $9 sum Sale Price $4.49 - $1 coupon
  • Lasting Finish Pro Nail Polishes Original Price $4 sum Sale Price $2.24 - $1 coupon
I spent a total of  $14.19 plus tax.  I saved about $26 on my haul!  Gotta love saving when it comes to cosmetics!

Have you picked up some Rimmel London items from Walgreens' sale yet?

Review: Wet 'n' Wild Megalast Lip Colors - Coral-ine, & Purty Persimmon

So for those of you who do not know, I am loving these lipsticks from Wet n Wild!  Their Megalast Lip Color is by far my favorite product from them!  For more shades: Here
I ended up picking these up at K-mart for BOGO1/2 and they were priced at $2.99.  They actually carry a lot more shades, than other places that I have found these at. 

Nails done? OH YEAH! Check!

So my current nails are a mixture of two tutorials that I came across.
  • My friend Emily had posted a link of Madeline Poole's perfect way to do gradient nails.   
  • I have been seeing saran wrap marble nails a lot lately.  So I figured I would try it.  I used Nailed It's tutorial upon it.

Oh Mail! Oh my!

So today in the mail I received the Target Style goodie bag that they were giving away on their Facebook fan page.
Damn USPS seriously!  The box was beat up a bit.  The first thing I see when I open up the box, is this brightly colored cosmetic bag.
Actually love the color combo on it.  The brand is London Soho.  When I opened the bag, I noticed something leaked a bit.  Wasn't a huge mess, just on the bottle of one of the products.  Easy clean up.
I noticed a bottle fell after I uploaded the pictures to the PC.  Was too lazy to take another one.  So sorry about that!
  • London Soho cosmetic bag
  • L'Oreal Magic Lumi Light Infusing Primer sample
  • Pantene Color Shampoo travel size
  • Neutrogena Visibly Bright Facial Cleanser travel size
  • Nivea Extended Moisture Daily Lotion travel size (the bottle that fell over)
  • Simple Sensitive Skin Experts Cleansing Facial Wipes travel size
  • A booklet of Target coupons for some beauty products
Thank you Tarje for giving out the sample goodie bags!

Did you get one?


Uh-oh! FiS moment!

I was suppose to be on a total "no-buy cosmetics" goal, but with getting supplies for work, I find it difficult to avoid.  Not to mention some of these sales that have been going on!
So here is what I picked up over the weekend!
The Sedona Lace samples came in last week, but I never got around to posting about it.  Just been so busy with so many things going on.  It included three pans of eyeshadow from their most popular palettes, and a travel brush of their Vortex Synthetic Blender.  I haven't opened up the pans yet.  As for the brush it's so cute and small!  The bristles are super soft!  Will definitely will have this in my stash when I go on travel.
Headed to Ulta.  Picked up two of their Salon Nail Lacquer in Jaded, and Maine Attraction, which is currently going as 2 for $4.  I only have one nail polish from Ulta, so I had to try more, before I pick up some for a care package to a good friend.  I also picked up Maybelline's Dream Matte Powder, in light and medium shade BOGO1/2.  So basically my trip to Ulta I spent only $12 sum since I also had the $3.50 off coupon.  Not bad at all!
Went to K-mart and noticed they had BOGO1/2 on Wet 'n' Wild products, and noticed they had the shades I was looking for the Megalast Lip Color.  Honestly if you have not tried these yet, I suggest you pick one up!  They are actually my favorite items from them.  They were actually $2.99 a piece for the lipsticks.  I picked the Coral-ine, and Purty Persimmon.
My next pick up of items, was from Walgreens.  They are currently having 50% off ALL Rimmel items.  How awesome is that?  And not to mention here are three coupons for you to print out.  Make sure your Walgreens does accept these.

http://www.redplum.com/pages/viewoffer.aspx?OfferId=90042
http://www.redplum.com/pages/viewoffer.aspx?OfferId=85548
You are able to print them out several times.  I didn't grab that much today, since I had forgotten my list of items that I need for the shoot.  The sale is well wicked!  The foundations were about $2 sum a piece at the 50% rate already, minus $1 from the coupon!  So I spent $3.74 + tax for both of them.  LOVE SAVING!  Oh they were the Match Perfection, and Clean Finish Foundation.

What did you pick up over the weekend?  Do you plan on heading out to Walgreens now for the sale?

Hope you all had a lovely weekend, and have a great week.  Happy Monday gorgeous!
