Beauty Haul! NYX, Real Techniques, Milani

Whenever I am having a bad day, I find it necessary to go out and treat myself to some new makeup goodies. It definitely is difficult to do when you're on a college budget, but I had a visa giftcard that I got from my birthday and hadn't used yet.

I had been lusting after some Real Techniques brushes for a long time. I used my sister's powder brush from them and I knew I had to get it. It was so soft and fluffy!

I have recently been dealing with some roommate drama and I needed to get out of my house, so I headed to ulta with my giftcard in tow. When I got to ulta, I was so happy to see that the Real Techniques brushes were buy one, get one 50% off!

In total, I bought four brushes, two of which were half price. I bought their powder brush, blush brush, expert face brush, and finally the stippling brush. I have already used all of these brushes and I love them so much. Has anyone ever just laid there running a soft makeup brush on there face. No? Yeah me neither...

Since I bought a stippling brush, I had to buy a cream blush, right? Just trying to justify my purchases, come on help me out over here. Anyway, I don't have a large blush collection and I've been gravitating to oranges but I don't have any so alas, more of a reason to buy this blush! I've heard really good things about NYX cream blushes, so I found the bright orange and went with it. This blush is so extremely pigmented, it's kind of scary, but in a good way.

 I can't really justify this Milani purchase, except for the fact that I was on an orange high and needed another orange blush! This one is more of a coral-y color, hence the name Corallina. This is also a really pigmented blush, however it does have a lot of glitter-not shimmer-glitter, and I know that a lot of people don't like that in their blushes. But I like it so far.

OOTD: Rumours

 Just wanted to share a quick outfit of the day!

My awesome shirt is from H&M $25

 I snatched up these burgundy cords from American Eagle the other day for $10!

I couldn't pass on these super cool studded flats from target. Can't have too many black shoes right? At least these have spikes.

Hope you enjoyed this short little post and my outfit :)
