Back to school pick me up!

Hey! Last week I after class I went to Ulta. I went for my free brow wax. I love the free birthday wax. I did not realize it but you generally have to have an appointment for those. The girl Kelly was great and did it for me really quickly before her next client came. 
While I was there I decided to grab a couple of things. A Real Techniques powder brush and some erase paste. I have wanted another Real Techniques brush for a while. I love the quality and this brush is super soft! I use it for powder and bronzer for all over. 
 Also on the way home I decided to stop in at my Walgreens. I was thinking that I would just pick up one of the special edition color tattoos to try. I saw a couple of blogs that had swatches on them and found the color barely beige. I stopped by and found the special edition ones there. I decided on Barely Beige of course and Bold Gold.



So far they have both been extremely long wearing. I would totally recommend the colors I have tried. I know that there is also a jewel tone set that just came out along with the neutrals. I might have to look at a few of those.

    Hey Emily, you've definitely got some nice stuff there that's great for going back to school! I own 2 Maybelline 24-Hour Color Tattoos (Bold Gold & Bad to the Bronze) and I love them a lot! They hold up really really well on me, and it's great for lazy days when I want a swipe of color :)

      Yeah! At least the one near where I live does. I'm not sure if it is only at select locations. The concealer is alright. I'm not a hundred percent about it though. It is kind of sticky on me. There is another concealer of theirs that I might try called Boi-ing. I think I might like that better.

      The brush is awesome! It is the softest thing. The color tattoos are awesome so far.

    I might have to invest some of those shadows - I can never have too many neutrals.
