Maybelline Cosmetics is one of my favorite drugstore makeup brands and I have recently heard about these 24 hr color tatoos and was pretty impressed. They are cream eyeshadows that tend to work as a primer as well! I personally think these do stay true to the 24 hour staying power.
They retail each at Ulta for $6.99. Here are the three I picked up. (Out of about 10 different colors).
"Creamy Beige" is a pretty taupey color that is matte. I like to use it as a base color and build off of it.
"Bad to the Bronze" is my favorite out of the selection. It's a pretty shimmery bronzey gold color and Sometimes I use this as an all over lid color or use it in my crease.
"Inked in Pink" is a very pretty rosegold shimmer and i love using this as a statement shadow and for my outer crease. This and a nude lip is a classy yet simple look for day or night.
As for the formulation, it is creamy but the application of it is a bit chuncky when I am using an eyeshadow brush. I find myself having to just end up using my fingers to thoroughly blend it all out.
These shadows stay on all day and do not crease and the colors are just so beautiful. (See swatches below from Inked in Pink, Leather, and Bad to the Bronze).
These shadows are perfect for any event and I highly recommend these to everybody to try out! Maybelline fails to disappoint me! Keep on making makeup!

It's that time again!! My mom and I just went to Bath and Body Works for their semi annual sale and gosh did I find a lot! From candles, body sprays, lotions, creams, candles and much much more. Having a giftcard to BBW already was a total plus because I needed to stock up on my favs!
The sale goes from today until July 6 so grab all your goodies before they're sold out!
The first thing that I always look for are body gels and creams. I go through so many body gels and creams that I had to stock up on them!
All of them were under $4! It was a steal compared to their original prices of $12.50!!
The ones I picked out above were White Tea & Ginger, Lush Pink Dragonfruit, and one of their classics, Country Apple. And they smell amazing (especially in a hot steamy shower).
The last things that I decided (it took a long time based on the options in the store—all amazing) were candles.
Candles at BBW are my number 1 priority because you can't go wrong with a whole stock full to save for the upcoming seasons and they burn so well and smell so good.
I grabbed Honolulu Sun, Guava Colada, and (one of Zoella's favorites) Honeysuckle Bouquet! These were originally priced at $22.50 and were on sale for 50% off for $12.50! The smaller one wicks were $6 each.
With all my purchases at BBW, I saved over $75! (Using a $10 off spend $40 coupon).
The sale will be going on for a long time so don't rush on over because they do keep everything well stocked but, a lot of scents have gone over the past two days at my local BBW. The selection of things they have are pretty beachy which is awesome for the summer! They do have a lot of classic scents as well like Peach Bellini, Country Apple, Cucumber Melon, and so fourth.
This isn't a sale to miss! Happy shopping!

Doing my nails is like mowing the lawn. It's a chore ladies. However, when I do my nails I have some of my favorite nail polishes for summer to share with you guys!
This first nailpolish is one of my favorite blue shades for the summer. It is a bright cobalt blue and you only need one to two coats. It reminds me of the ocean!
>Essie's "Butler Please" $8.50 at Walgreens
I have been really into metallics lately and I know I know Selena Gomez blah blah blah... But her OPI collection is pretty great! I love coppers and golds on my nails and this is definatley one you should pick up for the summer!
> Nicole by OPI Selena's "Kissed by Midnight" $9 at Ulta
Don't worry! Not all my nail polishes are really expensive high street brands, but Sinful Colors has a great collection of colors and the quality is really good! This is my favorite bright neon pink color to wear on my toes and is great for the beach! It does take about 3 coats to apply but the color payoff is amazing!
> Sinful Color's "24/7" $1.99 at Walgreens
This is one of my newer favorites that I just picked up and I am in love. I describe it as very "juicy" haha I look at it on my nails and want to just eat it off (but I don't). It's one of Essie's newest summer shades.
> Essie's "Peach Side Babe" $8.50 at Walgreens
And lastly, this is one of my yearly favorites because I love it so so much is OPI's Cajun Shrimp. This is a popular favorite in their collection and I just discovered it. Lately I have been really into bright watermelon-y, orangey reds. This summer I will definatley be looking out for some more OPI colors to come!
>OPI's "Cajun Shrimp" $9 at Ulta
Thanks for reading my top nail polishes for this summer! I hope you enjoyed and try out these awesome colors!
What's your must have nail polish for these hot summer months?
