The Mother of All Makeup Cases!

With the up coming wedding season, and my ever expanding makeup collection, I knew I needed to update how I stored and traveled with my kit.

I did a some research online and came across a site called Yazmo.com. They have a wide variety of makeup cases, makeup pallets, and other beauty tools for professionals.

The one I purchased is called the 2 in 1 Black Fabric Rolling Makeup Case Set with Drawers.
Model # TS303BK

It was $189.95. I had a coupon so I got it for $170.00. It had it shipped to my US address so the shipping was free. But be warned, to ship this to Canada would of cost me $100!!

It has two pieces that can be detached. The smaller one has a brush compartment, two sliding trays and a larger, deeper compartment.
The larger piece it taller and has wheels. It has 8 small drawers that lock in place when closed. Which is perfect for travelling. It has a brush compartment, also a larger, deeper compartment for bigger items.

I'm very please with this purchase!

Stayed tuned for an update on how I filled this case!!

MAC- Archie's Girls Collection

I knew this collection would be very popular! Who doesn't have a little Betty or Veronica in them?!

It sold out quite quickly online, but I was able to purchase two products that I really wanted from the collection.

From Veronica's side:

Prom Princess Blush- described as a mid tone violet pink. This blush is super pigmented! You only need a small amount on your brush. Might also need to be blended out. I like the Après Ski flush it gives my cheeks. Wear is 8 hours.

Mall Madness LipGlass- described as a mid tone pink violet. The texturesuper glossy and the pigmentation is medium. Wear is 4 hours. I'm currently obsessed with this shade! I'm light to medium skin toned with dark hair; this LipGlass is the perfect shade to take for day to night. It looks really great paired with the Prom Princess Blush.
