October's glam bag  was a gorgeous Crimson & Lace design with an adorable Bat zipper pull.
The Theme was SpellBound


I always start with mine so we are gonna switch it up a bit and do Jayedyn's
This is what was in her bag .

1st product was a sample of the -
 Glide-On Eye Pencil
 by Urban Decay $20
     in the shade -  Perversion
*This is a very black pencil, great for the water line/ tight line, a cat eye or wing.
They Blend easily and when they are set They are not going anywhere .
 They have almost any shade you would need with 43 different shades to choose from. 


2nd product is a sample of -
Lifted Mascara by Tarte $23
*This is a sweatproof, long lasting black
 formula. Will make your lashes longer, thicker and gives ya a bit of volume.
 The Amazonian clay and Vitamin C will condition and strengthen every lash. 

3rd product is a sample of -
 Liquid Matte Lipstick
 by  MDM FLOW $24
 The shade is called - Retro
This is a pinky shade .
*The formula is very creamy, Non-drying and Transfer Proof. It is great for your lips and will moisturize using Vitamin E.
The color is a bit to pink for Jayedyn so she gave it to me. 

4th product is a full size -
Nail polish
 by Pretty Woman $7.99
In the shade - Wine w/Ice Garcon
This is a beautiful deep red color, It's fast drying, chip resistant 100% vegan and cruelty-free. 
The picture doesn't do it justice.


5th product was a full size -
 Lip Balm 
by Cute Balms $3.99


in  Vanilla Flavor 
This is a cute little Macaroon container and smells pretty good.
It is very Moisturizing to the lips 
The lip balm is pressed in the container pretty good so at first it was hard to get out . You have to let your finger warm it up .
That is everything she got her favorites were the Eye liner , the Macaroon lip balm , the mascara.  least favorites were the liquid lip and nail Polish.
She did not like the colors.

I rcvd the same bag let's review.
My Products 



the 1st product is a sample size -Finishing powder 
by It Cosmetics  $24.00 0.23 oz. 
in the shade -Translucent

*This is a great powder for blurring pores and fine lines.

I found that my skin looked great it did not cake up my makeup. 
This is a great formula for anti-aging properties and ingredients. Collagen, peptides do a good job of making your skin look airbrushed and flawless.
I really like all of ItCosmetics products that I have tried.  I would recommend.

the 2nd product was a sample size -concealer
 by  Hey Honey $36.00 0.5 oz.
In the shade- Natural Tone /Normal to Dry

This is a creamy concealer that minimizes the appearance of dark circles and other discolorations around the eyes. 
The blend of amino acid Proline & Vitamin E provide anti-wrinkle effects.
*This concealer does exactly what it say's it will do. It covered up my under eye are and partial Lupus Rash. It made my makeup apply flawlessly and look great with Powder over the top. This was my perfect shade for my skin tone.


the 3rd product is a Full size- eye brow pencil
 by Chella $18.00


In the shade -Beautiful Blonde 

This is a creamy formula that is easy to apply to the brows. It makes even my sparse brows look great. It is the perfect shade for me with 5 different shades you should be able to find the perfect one for you. I love how I can blend it through and my brows still look normal. Such a good product. 


the 4th product is a sample size - of Sweatproof Mascara 
by Tarte $23.00


This is a sweat-proof mascara so it's long lasting. It is a black/brownish formula it treats the lashes while adding volume. It, of course, has the Amazonian clay with the antioxidant and vitamin C to soften, protect and promote healthy volumized lashes.
I really find that this formula is good. There isn't any flaking or transferring this mascara stays put and makes your lashes look ahhmazing. I love Tarte products anyway so I am happy to add this to the holy grail products.


the 5th product is a sample size - of eye cream 
by Skynn Iceland $45.00 .49 oz 


This is a very creamy formula that helps with your puffiness, dark circles, and wrinkles.
It has the active ingredient Saponaria which is a flowering plant that can survive the most extreme climates, stimulates cell rejuvenation, firm and De-puff while improving elasticity.
I have been using this for about 4 weeks and I can see a difference. It feels so cooling to the under the eye and works hard at making my fine lines and Insomnia Zombie looking eyes look like I have gotten 8 hrs of rested sleep, instead of the painstaking, wide awake nights I have. 
I would love to repurchase this product and some others.

This was overall a great bag I liked all my products.
What did you get ? What products would you like to try? Let me lnow in the comments below.
Here are some photos of the products



Thank you for taking the time to read .
As Always Stay Strong and Keep Fighting,

Lupus thoughts and Ramblings June 25th

Hey there.  I hope you are staying safe and sane in this crazy world.  It's a lot to stomach for anyone. I can't go crazy.  I already am!        Serious question? When do you tell your family that their joking around has become hurtful?  It's to the point where I feel like I am in high school again, trying to compete for their love and attention. I am 45 yrs old and feel like I am treated like a child at times. I am told that I am too sensitive and that I take things out of context, that I should just take it, and know they are playing.  Every night it's a roast the hell outta mom till she cries or locks herself in the bathroom so no one would see.  it's not like anyone would care to be honest.  I could cry for hours and no one would even flinch.  When did I become invisible, and so small that it doesn't matter if I am even around?  I am ignored when I am trying to be a mother, I am ignored when I try to let people know ho...

Let's talk showers

  Let's talk showers  No, not the kind that falls from the sky when it rains. No, not meteors, but regular showers people take to keep clean. A regular person is in the shower up to 5-10 mins maybe 15 at the most. Well for someone with Lupus, MS and Fibromyalgia it's so much longer. For instance, it took me almost an hour to shower the other day. Why is this you ask? Well, I can barely stand on my own, and do things like lift my hands to shampoo my hair without being so exhausted I have to sit down.  So it begins, the clock ticking away. *10 mins gone * sitting down. Once I finally can I stand back up and commence the ritual of the shower  but wait, after *10 more mins* I need to take a breath before I pass out (literally) it takes sitting down and breathing slowly to make it not feel like my heart is going to leap out of my chest.  I look at my handy dandy Fossil smartwatch and it says my BPM is 140 which I believe.  I try to slow down my breathing, a...

ESSENCE MAKEUP REVIEW

Makeup can be high end and really expensive or drugstore and very budget friendly.  Just because a drugstore brand is budget friendly doesn't mean it is bad quality. Right? Recently while perusing my local Ulta store with Jayedyn                      (on the hunt for a blue eye liner )  after looking at all the different brands from Urban Decay, Ulta , Nyx etc. and coming up empty and disappointed we were ready to walk away when i suggested one more look . Tucked away on an end cap of the isle was a small product line. I had never even looked at this brand before but sitting on the shelf was the perfect blue shade of eyeliner that Jayedyn was searching for & on a 15 yr old girls budget too. I started to take a closer look at some of the products . The nail polish is what  drew me in, the colors were so pretty, it also looked like there were a few dupes for some high end products as well. I ended ...
