I ♥ Spring TAG

Happy Thursday Everyone!!

Today I thought I would do the I ♥ Spring tag that has been floating around youtube. This tag was created by Ingrid (you can check out her video here), but I was inspired to do this tag because of my friend Jamie (go check out her video here). 

I thought about doing a video for this, but I changed I decided to stick with what I know so I'm going to make you guys read it. Sorry (not really).

Keep reading to see a few of my favorite spring things!

Nail Polish Collection

Hello Everyone!!

If you haven't done so already, go check out the Making It Sparkle Facebook page!! Yay!! Go "like" it here!

Today you get to see my nail polish collection! Yay!! Exciting!!

My sister and I tend to share our nail polishes (so you might see manicures with colors that she purchased) but today I'm only going to share the ones that I purchased. I also have a few more polishes at my mom's place because I couldn't take them all back with me. These won't be included here.

I also realize this could get long, so I will pretty much just post the pictures and the names so you can easily scan through to see what you might like. Enjoy! 

 

Never Enough Lip Gloss

Hello hello!!!

If you read my previous post (click here), you will know that I'm doing a sort of "de-clutter my life" series (and repurchasing new products, obviously).

So I thought I would start with lip products, because I LOVE lip products. Pretty much I'm addicted to lip gloss. Talk to anyone that went to high school with me. At any given time you could probably find at least 5 different lip products my purse (and maybe one or two in a jacket pocket somewhere).

Recently, when this bright idea to de-clutter hit me, I chucked out all my old, expired, and gross looking products. This was before I thought that I would blog about it, so no picture of everything that got trashed, sorry. But who wants to see a pile of old and gross lip gloss anyway? However, this left me with a very limited collection.

Fave Beauty Buys: Nail polish

My favorite recent beauty discovery? Revlon Nail Polish. More specifically Revlon Quick Dry Base Coat (995) and Revlon Extra Life No Chip Top Coat (950)!

Honestly these two are miracle workers. I know it takes a little while to do a base coat then two coats of polish and then a top coat. But it is so worth it because your manicure will stay chip-free for a week!!

This is defs my new fave (and cheap) beauty buy!!!

Fave Beauty Buys: Eyeliner

Way back in November I talked about my favourite hairspray.

Today I'm going to tell you about one of my favourite eyeliners. It took me a lot of eyeliners to find this one, but I love it! 

I love everything about it! I love the color, I love how soft it goes on (and doesn't scratch your eyelid), I love that it comes with a little smudging tip on the other side! And I love the price! haha

It is the Revlon Luxurious Color Eyeliner in Blackened Sapphire! 

It truly lives up to it "luxurious" name! 

Like I said, I love everything about it. I love the sponge tip that lets you blend the color for a softer look. I love how soft and smooth the actual liner goes on, no pulling on your eye, which also allows it to go on smoother (aka a nice smooth line). And I love love love the color. I think that is my favourite part about it. I don't usually wear black eyeliner because it looks to harsh with my light skin. I also have very deep set eyes and black can sometimes make them look even smaller. So I love this dark blue color because it looks black, but doesn't have the harshness of a black eyeliner. 

So if you are in the market for a new eyeliner, give this one a try. Sometimes it goes on sale for around $8.00! Yay! They also have a lot of other colors, so if Blackened Sapphire isn't your thing, try a different color! 

Even Emma Stone is a fan, see.
