HH & Her Beans

OLO ma beans, this is one of the posts that are looonnggg overdue. Literally I am late by like two months... BUT HEY here we are!!

Let's go through the friend list first... So one of my close artist friends got me an Elf eyeshadow kit... Which I probably won't be using until I can drink since the shades are not really natural. But the kit had a eyeshadow brush so YAY!! 

She also bought me a cute bear flowerpot from Daiso in which now I am using to hold my cookie monster plushie. 

From ma kpop frand who left school early for vacation, she got me a pack of the BEST FACE MASKS!! I think I talked about it on my skincare blog post. 

I think I got the most "spa/relaxation" kits this year since another friend got me this foot cream and fuzzy socks which works verryyy well. My feet are smooth and happy... How can feet be happy?? I don't know...

Of course I got a set of BTS photocards from my supa genius frand who was willing to spend $20 on a set of cards with faces of male Kpop celebrities on them... She thought they were really weird. I couldn't find the pictures from the original seller so I just improvised with this... 

My beessssttiiieee got me a whollllee set of make up. Maybelline Blush palette which I haven't started using yet.

An Elf lip tint which I don't recommend using in school instead of a lipstick because it is permanent and you need to use a makeup wipe to take off. Also it is realllllllyyyy dark....

And allllsssooo a Maybelline pencil liner which has a very good consistency and it applies very smoothly. Through looking at the small list, y'all can see the little amount of friends that I have... But they are very important to me... But see if I was a super hero, villains can't use them against me because I have so little friends.... SO LESS PEOPLE GETTING HURT!! 

I traded my Christmas present for the EXO ticket and instead asked for a ceramic curling iron. This wand is by the brand: Remington... and it is honestly is so cheap... It was around $14.99 at Ross and I'm pretty sure that it's still on sale there so... GO CHECK IT OUT!!

YAY it is officially ten days before Christmas!!

I am seriously so happy that this is the first Christmas we are spending together. I know I haven't been active for the past two weeks and there is of course compensation plus PRESENTS for Christmas!!

So stay with me for the countdown to Christmas!! I literally just screamed Christmas four times... I think I'm a bit crazy after the tests this week. I had a HUSH test and math test yesterday... I failed both.... I got literally Bs and Cs on both of them. Then today I had my AP English "quest" (by the way teachers, this is not a thing... when you say that it is a "quest"... IT IS A TEST!! Why you gotta lie to meh??) don't worry... I failed that too... and we also had a APES test today which I got a 83%. I CANNOT!! This is a great way to end Christmas break and guess what... SAT scores are coming out the week of Christmas... AGAIN ANOTHER BREAK RUINER!!

I am completely checked out by now and I am all yours for the rest of the break so message me, email me, love me (JK that is not okay...), and just feel free to contact me!! I will be getting to emails very very soon but first I have to go and wrap all my presents. I am seriously so tired.. My sleeping schedule is so messed up, I take a nap until 6 every night and then I sleep at 2-3 in the morning until 5... Then I wake up again to study. Until next time stay cool ma beans. 

After watching tons of YouTube make up tutorials and essentials, I thought I would create a post about beauty essentials for the cheap people who are out there (like me). I don't have the time to go shopping at Sephora during the weekend, nor do I have the money to spend on $30 foundation. I thought you guys should also know that I have zero experience with make up. I never wear make up unless I'm competing or presenting something, so... Whooooppiiiiidoooooo.... This post is also going to be a little different from the Q&A before since, I didn't ask you guys to send in any questions. Okay let's do this. 

Dream Fresh BB Cream by Maybelline: I don't wear foundation because I think it's too creamy and too heavy for my taste so if I ever need to wear something to even out my skin, I normally use BB cream. This is around $6-7 depending on where you buy it and I'm currently using it. Baby Skin by Maybelline (pore eraser): This is what I wear on a daily basis because my pores are literally huge. I would wear it as a primer with my BB cream. It gives a matt texture and so I recommend wearing this with something on top just because it looks more natural. You wouldn't want a patch of your skin to be more matt than other patch. Clean Powder by Covergirl: This cover looks dark green up close but that's beside the point. This is the powder that I wear on top of everything. It's matifying, but after 2-3 hours you have to re-touch if you want to stay matt. I don't usually bring make up with me, so my face is usually shiny by lunch, but it's still less shiny than not wearing powder.  Color Riche by L'oreal (eyeliner): Current eyeliner is this pencil here. Why did you buy it?? Welll I saw it on sale for $2 at Big Lots so I bought it. Then a few days later I saw the same thing at CVS for $10 so UHHHHHH who is the best shopper ever?? I am!! But seriously, if you go to Big Lots, they sometimes have the best quality stuff all for less than $5. Remarkable Mascara by Cover Girl: I'm not updated on my mascara because I don't use it that much. I have a tester from Tarte that I've had since last Christmas. Yea... But this is my big tube that I wear. It works fairly well and it kind of clumps, but whatever. I'm not really into mascara. Brow Stylist by L'oreal:  I'm so sorry guys but I don't fill in my brows normally because I already have thick eyebrows and if I fill them in while I have really little make up on, it looks extremely awkward, so I just leave them alone. But I do fill in my brows for speech competitions and this is what I use. Smoochies Lipsticks by Cover Girl: I literally wear these lipsticks for any occasion because they are obviously the best. I don't need to wear lip balm under this unlike normal lipsticks which makes me super happy. I currently am using Tweet Me which is this orange reddish color and I have Luv Bug all stored up for a more serious occasion. The colors looks brighter than what they look like close up. I couldn't find a picture for my eyeshadow palette because I don't have it with me but it is basically three round mineral balls with rose gold, shimmery orange red shadow, and this light brown shimmery color. The second palette that I use often is this Maybelline Eyestudio mineral ball which I think is awesome because it's one small square and it covers everything.  This is the palette that I use the most. Literally you just take the gold/light brown shade rub it over your lids, then swipe the bottom of the lids, then wow!! Nude eyes!!! It's super natural, trust me on that because I hate heavy makeup.
