Urban Decay's Discontinued "Covet" Dupe!

In the world of high-end makeup, Urban Decay is a household name. Known for the cult favorite Naked palettes, they also have some pretty impressive pencil eyeliners. The 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencils are notorious for their long lasting, intense pigmentation. With 40 shades to choose from, and another 6 shades from their Velvet line, there's a slim chance you won't find what you're looking for. The downside to so many shades? They might discontinue some shades to make room for new ones. For those of us that have fallen in love with certain products, the word "discontinued" can cause mass hysteria and have us all running to our nearest beauty supply store.

Disappointing Products

With the insane amount of beauty products I’ve bought in the past two years, it’s safe to say there have been quite a few duds in the bunch. While I’m not saying these products are horrible and should have never existed, they just didn’t work for me, sometimes heartbreakingly so. 

Ulta Gems on the Sales Page!

Things are going a little crazy for me lately (midterms will be the death of me) so a few things have been pushed slightly aside. All in all, I still can't resist checking the "Sale" section at Ulta/Sephora and I loooove finding some great things on there and today is no exception!

My Ban on Make-Up

My biggest weakness is make-up. Ever since I've started wearing make-up about 2 1/2 years ago, I've been on a crazy spending spree and now my credit card bill makes me want to cry lol so I've officially made a pact with my boyfriend that I'm not going to buy ANY more make-up until I've either used up everything I have or it's February. That's right...I'm going 4 months without buying make-up!

The Best Eyeliner I've Ever Used

If I had to pick my favorite make-up product, I'd have to say eyeliner! I have rosacea, so it's a very close competition between eyeliner and foundation. I absolutely love the look of winged liner, and I wear it so often that I can get both eyes done in under 5 minutes (are you impressed yet?) I've tried countless eyeliners, drugstore and high-end, in the ultimate hunt for my holy grail eyeliner. I've tried pencils, liquid, and gel liners but my all-time favorite is $12 from Sephora!

Ulta haul!

Since I'm a working full-time college student, I rely pretty heavily on sales. If I can find a way to save some money, I'm all for it! This week Ulta is having a 40% off sale for NYX, Physician's Formula, Almay, and Revlon. Naturally, I had to have a seat when I found out. I made a list of all of the products from each brand I wanted to check out, and I set off on my journey.

L'Oreal Paris J. Lo Nude Review!

Hey everyone! Trying to type as quietly as humanly possible because I'm laying next to my sister while she recovers from getting her wisdom teeth removed. Today I've got a review of a new(ish) release from L'Oreal Paris where they've collaborated with their celebrity ambassadors, like Eva Longoria and my girl Jenny from the block.
