Christmas is coming!

Hey guys! I know that again, I have been MIA but I actually forgot about my blog for a while! I know I know, I'm so sorry! I will be getting back into today! As a matter of fact, I will be going out today to get some products for reviewing from the drugstore, because I finally have my license! Let me know what you guys would like reviewed from the drugstore and I'll be sure to pick it up! Like I said in the title, Christmas is coming! I know not everyone celebrates, and thats perfectly fine but I'm very excited! I have a feeling that I will be getting the Nikon 1! This will allow me to do OOTD, and I won't have to take all the pictures on my iPhone! Do any of you guys have this camera? Let me know how much you like it and what lenses you would suggest getting for it. I don't know anything about cameras, but hopefully I'll being taking a photography class next semester so that should help! I love doing photoshoots with people, and I wish my sister would do them with me but she refuses! How rude ;). Also! As many of you guys know, the Naked 3 palette came out! Have any of you guys tried it? Is it worth it?

Recently I have been obsessed with the show, 90210. I know, I know, classic makeup obsessed teen move right? I just love the fashion and the drama, and especially the hair and makeup. I especially like Adrianna and Silver's short hair, and their makeup is gorgeous! Do any of you guys watch the show? Would you like show inspired makeup and outfits? Let me know if you would like show inspired outfits or anything from any show, because I would like to do that for you guys. I love recreating looks.

Okay guys, I have to go out to get your review products, but I'll be back later tonight with first looks at a few goodies! Make sure to subscribe!

P.S.- I was thinking about starting to put videos on here so I can show you guys stuff easier, what do you think? Let me know in the comments!

BH Cosmetics Review

Yay! Two posts in one day! This one is a review on the BH Cosmetics 120 Color eye palette, and this one is the third edition. I bought this from a Hautelook sale for $15, and its usually around $30, so I got it for half off which is a great deal. This is my first BH Cosmetics product, and I can truly say that I'm impressed. The colors had a pretty good payoff, and most of them had great pigmentation. While some of them left something to be desired, I think most of them were great, and for $15, I really can't complain.
One of this things that I love about this palette is that your always finding something that you didn't know was there before. Even after having it for a few weeks, looking at the colors to get swatches,  I found some really interesting colors that I didn't even notice were there before, and that being said, you can always come up with a different makeup look.
I really like that this has a variety of fun colors for makeup for halloween, and dark colors for smokey eyes, as well as neutrals for everyday wear. If this was the only palette that you had for your entire life, I don't think that you would be held back one bit on the possibilities of the looks you can create, and for $15, who cares if one shadow is a dud. It's not really putting you out.
I found that these shadows have great staying power, and were even on after gym class, and playing a strenuous game of ultimate frisbee! I noticed zero creasing whatsoever and my shadows looked great all day.
All and all I would give this a 4.5 out of 5 because there are a few dud shadows, but most of them are AMAZING and I would highly recommend this product to any beginner makeup artist.
