New beauty products that I snagged at Target, e.l.f and N.Y.C. They both grabbed my attention because of the shades and price range is affordable for all beauty junkies. Check out my review and tutorial on my beauty finds.

Beauty Pics
The beauty pictures came out gorgeous, really love how it looks natural as well. The gloss is going to be my new fave for the new year it’s just as good as Revlon colorburst but smells more yummy!

The eye shadows are very sheer mostly the first shade, the champagne color is so pretty I wanted it to be more intense.
