Feeling Lovely Friday! Beauty Haul (fragrance and lipgloss)

Sometimes I buy more things than I need... and it ends up with me being kind of broke. Anyhoo I bought some stuff and it's cool so I thought I'd share it.

Sooo first I stopped at Victoria Secret... and tbh I had no idea what I wanted to buy there but I knew I wanted something. I knew I would not leave the store empty handed. I had a couple $10 off bra coupons, I wanted to smell their new fragrances. There was just a lot going on.

So I was super overwhelmed and just picked up some of the new VS Fantasies. I got the Pure Seduction in Bloom line... I mean I think I bought everything in the line, they only have 4 products... and a Lovespell in Bloom spray. It was 5 for $30 and I really liked the Pure Seduction in Bloom, which surprised me because I don't really like the original Pure Seduction. I don't dislike it, I feel like if I had a friend that smelled like that I would think they smelled good but I don't personally think I would want to smell like that all the time. It's a kind of weird scent. But anyway the floral hint that the "In Bloom" line has makes it just different enough for my liking. I got the Love Spell in Bloom spray because I feel like it smells very similar to the original Love Spell and idk I feel like I'd rather have stuff from the original lovespell line than just the "in Bloom" line... but I liked "in Bloom" enough to buy the spray. It was an impulse buy kind of lol.\

Wallgreens 

Milani came out with some new lip stuff that sounded intriguing to me and they were having a sale... so I went to Wallgreens to pick it up.

The first thing was the new Lip Intense Liquid color. I got the color Fiery Coral... it's super pigmented. I know that I'm going to do a True Test Thursday on this... so you probably already know about it. I'm writing this before I'm posting the True Test... but I'm posting after the True Test sooo yeah. I guess you'll know whether it is good before I do. And You can read that review right on this very blog. Crazy right?

I also got the Millani Brilliant Shine Gloss... which I also quite like. These are quite pigmented for a lipgloss also. I got the shade coral crush because I really have no corals in my life and I've been digging the color lately. It has a nice application, a nice formula and it's a nice color. I quite like it, it is a little sticky but not overly "my hair is going to stick to my face all day" sticky. It isn't that longwearing either but its nothing bad. It reminds me a bit of the Stila lip glaze. This is the closest product I've ever found to those, which is pretty awesome.

Ohhh and I saw little travel sized versions of the Jergens perfecting BB Cream for Skin. I tried it out and I do think it makes my skin look better. I tried the light skin tones version... I kind of want to try the Medium Skin Tones one for the summer time. I feel like it'll make my legs look nice and tan and pretty. It's a very sheer wash of color, but there is a clear difference in the way my skin looks.


  

Anddd since I liked the Milani lip stuff so much, I went back to wallgreens! I bought the rest of the colors for the lip intense thingy.

They have a cool toned pink called Pink Rave, A purple called Violet Addict, and a red called Red Extreme. I like that they come in packages! I usually pass on a lot of lip products at my wallgreens because they seem open and thats nasty so I thought this was great!

I also got another of the brilliant shine glosses in the color Ravish Raspberry. I wore that today and it was soooo pretty. It just looked really really cool I liked it a lot!

And that is it! I wanted this to be more exciting, but I just stuck to the same stuff because I really liked it all, and if you like something buy all the somethings. That's my saying! Lol.

Hope you are all feeling lovely this Friday!

Byeeee!

Edit: 
 I opened the other Milani Lip Intense colors and they smell really really bad. The Fiery Coral smelled fine, but the other ones have such a bad smell! They apply the same and it's not so bad that I can actually smell it on my lips (so far from trying it on) but just be warned about that. I guess I got a bad batch or something! 

Is there a way to make it smell better? Help if you know! 

Ugh... I think I'm just going to take them back! Wallgreens has a good return policy I think and there is definitely something wrong with these. They aren't applying quite the same... its just wrong. 

Byeee!

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f
