Sneak Peak Haul: Chanel Makeup (Lipstick, Lipliner, and Foundation)

IMG_2375This past Mother’s Day, my wonderful husband had me choose my gifts for the special occasion.  We were at the mall and he asked what I wanted.  I have always wanted to try Chanel makeup but the price tag always stopped me from purchasing any of their products.  This time, I decided it was time to give them a shot.

Items:
1) Rouge Coco Lipstick in 43 Avant-Garde
2) Le Crayon Levres 05 Nude
3) Vitalumiere Aqua 30 Beige
4) Coco Mademoiselle (Free Sample)

Do you own any Chanel Makeup?

Born Pretty was kind enough to send me the items below.  I love playing with nail polishes, so it was time for me to add more nail products to my collection.

3) BK Sweet Candy Fast Dry Nail Art Polish #30 $2.95

I wanted to thoroughly cover each product so I divided my Born Pretty posts into two parts.  Today I will be sharing three nail polishes sent to me.

Born Pretty ships right away and never fails to ensure their fragile products are carefully wrapped to prevent any damage.  Just take a look at the pictures below.

Overall, I LOVE each of these shade and is very happy to now be the owner of a few BK nail polishes.  I prefer using just one coat of nail polish because for me they tend to last longer.  Whereas once I put two coats, I immediately ruin my nail polish after application somehow.  The brushes are easy to work with.  With a 2 year old running around, it is a must for me to have fast drying nail polish, which these are.  And the finished look is simply beautiful and shiny.

This is a great brand and I am looking forward to trying more shades.
