L to R: Revlon Diamond Lust - Look at that sparkle!!! L'Oreal duo in Khaki , Olive colored and then a light tan, maybe they will do better with a primer.
 
 
We all know I am obsessed with the Dollar Tree when it comes to cheap makeup finds, my local store is pretty small and its hit and miss but I usually do find nice ELF products or Rimmel, sometimes L'Oreal but that's pretty much it. Well while in town today I seen the biggest DT ever and I knew I had to stop and check out their beauty aisle. I've heard of people finding great brands in other stores so really I wouldn't have worried myself to death if I hadn't stopped. So here is my Dollar Tree find for today....
 
ELF Studio Matte Lip Colors aka Lip Pencils
I bought the Rich Red Color at my local DT this past week but was stoked to find 3 new colors that I didn't already have, which according to ELF's website there are only 6 colors and I have 4 now so maybe I can snag the last 2 soon! I keep telling myself I need to invest in more fall/winter colors but I love pinks and corals and they were only $1 and I couldn't pass that up! Online ELF has them listed for $3 apiece while I only paid a $1 each. Sounds like a deal to me!
Elf Studio Matte Lip Color swatches: L to R: Tea Rose, Coral & Nearly Nude
 
L'Oreal Wear Infinite Silky Powder eye liner in Gold Shimmer & Brown Suede
I've purchased L'Oreal at my DT before but its just been blush & bronzer so today when I seen the eye liner I was all excited. As far as my everyday black liner goes I use a felt tip pen but I don't mind using a pencil for special colors on special occasions. I bought a brown and gold, they had also a silver and lavender but I was trying to stick to my fall colors and be reasonable. When I swatched these I was pleasantly surprised at how creamy and smooth they went on! Usually I have the worst time with pencil eyeliners but these may change me! According to google these go for $5.59 apiece but once again I only paid $1!

Milani Lip Pencil & Eye shadows
I've heard of people finding Milani in DT's but never in mine so when I found these today I was very happy! They had a few other shadow shades but nothing I needed (lime green!) and they had lipglosses but once again nothing that I wanted. The shadows go for around $6 at drugstores & the lip pencil about $3.98
 
Top: Milani Lip Pencil in Satin Rose
Bottom L to R: 22 Sheer Sand & 09 Spice
The sheer sand wasn't as silky smooth as the spice, I'm not sure if just that color does that or I picked up a bad seed but maybe if I add primer it will go on better.
 
All in all I think I did great today! I couldn't be more proud of my makeup haul! If I would have bought these items at full retail price I would have spent over $50 but I only spent $14! Comment below & let me know what you've found at your Big Lots & Dollar Trees!

Mini Make-Up Haul 8-27-13

Any store I EVER go into I always check their beauty aisle for any deals they may have, the Dollar Tree is no exception. Actually its one of my favorite places to pick up great beauty deals for only $1 !!!! If you've never been to a DT you need to go asap ! They most always carry the L.A. Colors brand but other notable brands I've spotted are Bonnebell, E.L.F., L'Oreal, Milani, Covergirl, Sally Hansen, NYColor & Olay. I can't promise yours will have those... it is hit & miss. Sometimes I go and leave with nothing other times I spend more money than I would like to admit in a place where nothing is over a dollar. Besides cosmetics & make up brushes I've also bought nail polish, np remover, make up remover wipes, emery boards, tweezers, cuticle clippers, and so on and so on ! Oh and they have nice candles holders , and other glass dishes and small vases that easily double as brush holders and for only $1 !!!!! So I stopped in today and this is what I bought....

My Mini Haul !
 
L'Oreal blush in Caribbean Coral & bronzy color blush but it will be used as Bronzer for contouring!
They had another color of blush...Flamingo? I didn't get it but I should have.
 
NYColor eye shadow palette in Urban Spice
 
L.A. Colors loose pigment eye shadow in Black Pearl
besides the black I seen white, gold, & a pink. Should have bought those too.
 
E.L.F. Studio contour brush
I've bought tons of E.L.F. brushes from DT but never a Studio Brush. Of all the ones they had today this was the only one I didn't have so I grabbed it.
