Pink Quilted Train Case

Sephora's pink quilted/embossed train case: I often search for train cases whenever I browse through Sephora's website.  Im so glad i did because i really love this one.  

These are more ideal for folks with a smaller makeup collection like myself.  But its so pretty that if you had a very large collection i would still recommend it.  It would look so lovely in any ones room.  This is such a pretty soft pink color with a quilted pattern and silver hardware.

Now the Sephora train cases are a bit on the pricier side but they are very good quality and well worth the hefty price.   I would know i have a silver one ive had for years and its still like brand new.  (I gave the silver one to my mama).

I made a quick youtube video so ya'll can see.  I think this is so "VINTAGE" and pretty looking, photos just wont do it justice.  You must see by video! If you wanna get it too!  click the link http://www.sephora.com/search/search.jsp?keyword=train%20case

HERE KITTY KITTY TONY MOLY HAUL

TONY MOLY HAUL

For those of you who dont know ...Tony Moly is a Korean cosmetics brand.  Many of their products are in the cutest packaging EVER!   Are you surprised im drawn to them?  Packaging is a big factor for me.  Side note: If i could go back in time i would studied packaging design at FIT instead.  Any who we move on...

Tony Moly= cute packaging.  Im still fairly new with this brand so i cant yet speak on the actual products. 

Tony Moly is sold at a ton of different places one of them being Urban Outfitters.  But i place my order with KollectionK.  Their prices are often a bit cheaper and they sell other Asian products.   I really like like Etude House and Holika Holika. 

It does take about 3 weeks to get my order but they always include cool freebies... check em out here http://kollectionk.com/collections/tonymoly?page=4 

CATS WINK

blotting powder

It does a pretty good job at taking away the shine on my tzone.  However there areonly two colors to choose from...

HELLO BUNNY

perfume bar

The yellow bunny bellow is in the scent baby powder.  Well let me tell you it definitely smells like baby powder.  But to me it smells like baby powder on a baby's butt! You know what i mean? not sure if i like it just yet.

CATS WINK 3GO 

mascara

Definitely my least favorite of this mini haul.  Besides the adorable packaging (lets face it that's why i bought it)  The mascara itself is horrible.  It does nothing for my lashes, it doesn't elongate or curl or make them look thicker.  Id skip on this if i were you... 

CAT CHU WINK CRAZY

lip tint stick

There are three shades blue, yellow and green.  Depending on the color you choose they will turn you lips a different color.  Green a vivid red, Yellow an orange red and this one here Blue a pink red.

Tarte Be Mattenificent Matte Eye/Cheek Palette

Tarte
Be MATTEnificent Amazonian Colored Clay Matte Eye & Cheek Palette

Lets talk about this palette real quick.  Its small, compact, all matte.  Has your light, medium and dark shades, an awesome nude blush, two liner options, a brush,  a pretty nice sized mirror AND wait for it ... is only 36 US dollars. 

 Enough said!

I will have to add that some folks are giving this a bad review because they feel the shades are a bit chalky.  Matte shadows for the most part will look chalky they're matte.  

I picked mine up from sephora.  You can check it out here! Sephora
