What's In My Beauty Bag? June

Time for me to bring out my beauty bag and show you what's new! And y'all, I have so much to share! I am only sharing my faves out of the products I was sent from the past few months.  Y'all know I wouldn't waste my time sharing something that wasn't good! Now, let's open up the bag and see what's inside:

Hard Candy Sassy Eyes--I know a lot of you like drugstore shadows, so I thought I'd share this new kit from Hard Candy. There are 3 of these with each tin having 9 shadows, primer, a liner, applicator, and use instructional card. Great for teens just getting into makeup and those who want a more natural eye shadow look. $8 Walmart

Homemade Bath Bombs, Salts & Scrubs--If you've read this blog for about 5 minutes, you'll know I love a good diy, and this book has over 300 of them. Made of all-natural ingredients, these bath additions elevate your soak and help with common ailments. There are no pictures, but the recipes are great. $14.95 ulyssespress.com

Japonesque--They're one of my fave beauty brands for several reasons--the products are great quality and I love the unique packaging.

• Essential Brush Set--just the essentials in a cute travel case
• Pro Cut Crease Brush & Pro Crease Blending Brush--2 new brushes that are a must-have. I use these every day.
• Solid Brush Cleanser--Cleansing your brushes AND sponges is so much faster with this and it leaves them smelling nice, too.
• Velvet Touch Blushes in 03 and 06--Look at those beauties below! My favorite summer blush is 3. It's a gorgeous coral with a golden undertone.
• Velvet Touch Shadow Palette 02--An awesome nude palette--love this when I travel! 

$20 and up ULTA.com

NYC Strip Me Off Base Coat--Raise your hand if taking off glitter polish is the worst! Well now I've got an easy solution with this peel-off base coat. I can remember using peel-off polishes as a kid (I would try to make my own with watered-down glue) and this reminds me of that. Simply apply a genourous coat and allow to dry. It will turn clear. Then apply polish, like glitter polish. To remove, peel away! BONUS: I like to use this AROUND my nail before doing watermarble or ombre nails. Makes cleanup so easy and is a great deal! $1.99, mass retailers

Mirabella Colour Luxe Lip Gloss--Sneak peek time! These new shades in Sleek, Polish, and Glossed are soft and pretty. They give oil-rich intense hydration with a luminous shine.  Glossed (coral) is my fave and I like to use it and Polish on top of my fave lipsticks. They smell amazing and are so much prettier in person (which is why I don't like doing lip swatches). Coming in July $26 at professional salons and mirabellabeauty.com

SinfulColors Summer 2015--I had to end this with one of my fave drugstore polish brands! There are 29 hues that range from spicy reds, oranges, glitter as well as appliques. These are $1.99 and are found at drugstores.
