Today's wishlist wednesday comes from MAC Cosmetics. I like to keep a revolving wishlist on the MAC website with all the items that interest me and I want to purchase next time I'm at the store. I am an employee of Estee Lauder which means I do get a discount on products which is amazing.

         I have many single eyeshadows from MAC and I think it would be great to depot them and put them in a palette. I find it a lot easier to find and use eyeshadows when it's just one palette, than 15 individual eyeshadows.

         Also I want to get a 4 shadow palette to put different eyebrow shades for when I am freelancing. As I've said before in my Empties post, I recently discovered Prep & Prime and I am in love.

        The Warm and Cool 15 shade eye palettes would be a great addition to my freelance kit. I am trying to have a great freelance kit bu in a simple way. Meaning I don't want a ton of products, I just want a few key pieces.

         I've heard great things about the brush cleanser form MAC, so I want to give it a try. I also need a Makeup remover for my kit, and a travel size one is perfect.

         I love the Studio Fix Line from MAC and I need to restock my personal foundation. NC20 is my color for when I am tan.

        I want to get Prep + Prime in travel size for my freelance kit and i bigger size for my personal use. Prep + Prime Fix Plus is great for prepping the skin before makeup application, as well as setting it when finished.

Thank you,

EMPTIES | SEPTEMBER & OCTOBER 2016

Hey everyone!

        Thanks for visiting my blog. So the other day I filmed my "Empties" video for September & October, and unfortunately I didn't realize that it hadn't recorded the voice until after I threw away the products. Luckily I took one photo of the products before I tossed them. So here it it:

        So first off, it was really hard for me to not throw away items after I used them up. I kept forgetting and I threw away a ton of products, which is why this is for the month of September and October. Otherwise the Empties collection would be too small for me to talk about.

        I finished another Neutrogena Makeup remover towelettes, and if you know me, then you know this is the most important beauty item I own. I swear by these and I recommend them to anyone and everyone.

        I received a travel size of MAC's Prep & Prime last time i ordered online, and I absolutely love it. I am definitely purchasing the full size of this item next time I visit MAC. It made my skin feel so soft and my makeup look so smooth. I finished another Studio Fix Powder from MAC as well. I'm in the color NC20. This is my go to face powder.

        I gave the Maybelline Fit Me Powder a try, however I was very disappointed with it. I felt like it didn't give me a smooth finish on my face and it looked very cakey in some spots.


       There was two black eyeliners that i finished this month. The one with the gold cap is from Jordana, and I was very impressed by it. You can pick it up at Walgreens for just a couple dollars and it last all day. The other eyeliner I finished is buy Wet N Wild. It goes on great on the lid of my eyes, however it doesn't show up on the waterline. I would not repurchase the Wet N Wild eyeliner.

        I received a travel size bottle of 28 Remedy Acne Pore Deep Cleanse in my IPSY so I decided to give it a try. I really didn't like this product because I felt like it left a film of stickiness on my face after using it. It didn't do any deep cleaning and I actually starting breaking out when using this product.

        The Smashbox Lipgloss was not empty, however it was expired. It had a plastic smell to it. I personally don't wear golden lipglosses so I decided to toss it.

        The last Empty item was by Redkin, its the Extreme Anti-Snap Leave In Treatment. I have used this item for years, its great for dry damaged hair. When using it, I put it on out the shower and I use other Leave in conditioners at the same time to get the best conditioning treatment for my hair. I would definitely repurchase this item however I would get a smaller bottle because it takes forever to finish.

NAIL POLISH DECLUTTER

        Yay! I'm so excited to finally declutter my nail polish collection!! I went from way to much polish to just enough. I realize I spend way to much money on nail polish, that could be used for something more important.

        One thing that I didn't film in the video is that I sold a lot of the nail polish that was unused on Ebay and I made $160 from it! It was so easy to sell the items, and now I have some money to put towards future beauty purchases. I am going to be more selective going forward with the products that I buy.

        If you want to see how I decluttered my collection, check out the video below!

Thank you,

xoxo Amber
