Hey doll hey!!! How’s your Wednesday day/night going? Great I hope. I woke up feeling a bit off today so it’s a resting day for me. I did use a few spoons to clean and rearrange my makeup room. Since my vanity mirror is triple the size of the one that broke I don’t have much room on the vanity for the things I typically keep on my vanity so I popped into Walmart and purchased a 4 cube book case to move those things to and the case was big enough that I was able to eliminate 1 of the little shelf units next to my vanity and move the other to my reading chair for easy access to tea at night whilst I’m reading. I am do an updated room tour sometime next week since I’m truly loving the look of my room now.
I received 1 of my ColourPop orders (I have one that should arrive tomorrow, and then I have 1 last big box makeup purchases left, Glamlite, which will be delivered in August… it is a preorder they release them I think mid August.

I don’t need a first impressions for these liners. I have been using their liners for years. At first I had a love hate relationship with them until I realized that they weren’t working because they had dried up. Once I figured that out and purchased newer liners I fell in love with the formula and color selection. My favorite shade of their collection is GET PAID!!!! It’s the perfect combo of neutral and flashy,

I don’t need a first impressions of these pencils… I’ve used this formula for years and they are my favorite lip pencil formula. The last 3 pencils are actually repurchases, the Sow Happy shade is a backup and Brink and Love Bug are back ups because I’m almost out of both.
7. The Power Puff Girls 12 Pan Palette ($22 for .042 oz / 12 g of total product making it 0.035 oz / 1 g and $1.83 per shade on their website) is billed as made from sugar, spice, and everything nice! This powerful palette features bright hues of pink, green, and blue mixed with neutrals in buttery mattes and shimmery metallics. Stand up to the forces of evil and stand out with a mix of glitter and glam, This palette has 2 Glitters, 3 Metallics, 1 Duo Chrome and 6 Matte shadows.
The shades from left to right are: Townsville (warm pearl – glitter), Prof Utonium (icy baby pink – metallic), The Mayor (Sparkling Peach – metallic), Crime Fighting (warm beige – matte), Pokey Oaks (muted coral rose – matte), Frenemy (coral/gold duo chrome), Chemical X (Chartreuse – metallic), Super Friends (opalescent sky blue – glitter), Girls Rock (bright coral – matte), The Fashionistas (bright pink lemonade – matte), Silico (pastel lime – matte) and Rowdy Ruff Boys (pastel sky blue – matte).
First Impressions: This palette is so stinkin’ cute!! The 2 glitters are pretty but as you can see from the swatches Townsville is a bit more glitter packed than Super Friends is. Crime Fighting and Pokey Oaks both were a bit dusty… there was heaps of kick back in the pans and fall out all over my vanity. This palette’s mattes are finely milled and for the most part extremely pigmented. The metallics appeared to be super cream as did the glitters. For the swatches my 3 favorite shades are: Frenemy, Chemical X and Super Friends.
And with that… this haul is done… I hope you enjoy the rest of your day/night and that you are in great spirits and health.
👄 Remember dolls… ALWAYS save a spoon for a bit of lipstick 👄
