HOLIDAY SEASON... HOLIDAY HAULS!

The holidays are officially here... in stores that is.

I have been shopping a lot and here are the MUST have items you should not miss out on!!!!

                                                                       MAKEUP

Sephora:

This palette is beyond amazing. I purchased it and it can give you a full face in minutes without the baggage or mess.
It includes eyeshadows, gel eyeliners, blushes, shimmer lights (highlight), and a mini lip palette. Need I say more? smashbox is one of my all time FAV brands because there makeup is really pigmented and last all day. Give it a try? its only $59!!! Just one of the shimmer lights cost me about $25. 



ok... so need I explain more? TARTE... natural amazonian clay makeup... pretty expensive if bought piece by piece.. this set is amazing. The glosses are amazing and the brush is very soft. The packaging is beautiful. This is a must have as well... its worthy of a place in your christmas list.

only $54.


both of these will give you makeup that will last you a while and will only come out to $113
BARGIN of the holiday season.

I prefer these over the MAC holiday sets for the reason that you get a whole lot more for your money.


CLOTHING

Ok so we have the makeup down... what are the ESSENTIALS this fall??? Heres the following pieces you must have in your closet this fall.
