New 2012 drugstore finds !!!

So I'm writing this from my iPhone through the blogger app! Let's see if this works!!!

I was just at my local CVS to pick up some boring items like cotton balls and cotton pads when I walk in and see a set up for New Revlon items.. Well I nearly freaked out. I went over and saw a new face primer, new eye primer, new 3D photo ready mascara, new face sculpting palettes, and new eye shadow palettes..... I almost died.. Oh and a new mousse air brush foundation!!! Revlon is really on its game this new year!

Along with Revlon, Rimmel had a new mega mascara that has a nice fat brush and claims to grab all clumps and give great volume .. Cannot wait to test that out !!!

I also grabbed a new Cover Girl 24 hour mascara, one of maybelline's new gel cream shadows in a really desirable taupe shade and one of the Revlon lip butters in cupcake .. Did not think I would jump on the lip butter craze bc I heard mixed reviews, but Jessica from Beautizene did a review on Cupcake and I loved how it looked.

Here is the breakdown on prices
1. Maybelline Eye studio 24 hr eyeshadow ( Tough as Taupe) ...$7.99
2. Revlon Lip Butter (Cupcake)...$8.49
3.Revlon PhotoReady Perfecting Primer...$14.79
4.Revlon PhotoReady 3D Volume mascara...$10.49
5. Revlon PhotoReady Eye Primer...$11.49
6. Revlon PhotoReady Sculpting Blush Palette...$14.79
7. Rimmel Volume Flash ScandalEyes mascara...$7.99
8. Cover Girl Lash Blast 24 hr...9.99

I still need to get the Cover Girl/ Olay new foundation with the pump and the Revlon Mousse Air Brush Foundation..

Cover girl also has a new liquid eye liner I saw that I really would like to try!!

Okay enough with my rant .. If you were looking for new drugstore makeup I highly suggest you try our some of these new items !!

Video and reviews to follow :)

~BENEFIT~ Bella Bamba Blush~

My new love!!!!!!

This is the newest blush from Benefit and it retails for $28.

Can be purchased at Sephora and Sephora.com

The perfect watermelon-pink blush for the Spring/Summer!!
I have been wearing this for the past week and I have been obsessed. This is and will be my blush to use well through the Summer !

The color is buildable. I have warm this blush both lightly swept onto my cheeks and packed on for a more brighter color.

Both ways are suitable for the day. I do not think you can over due this coler because both ways, packed on or lightly swept on, look great.

~Enjoy~
