Makeup Review #2

Hey guys! After a successful first week of classes I am ready to start getting into a regular blogging schedule! A very long time ago I did a little makeup review of my favorite products that were in my makeup bag. Well I have gotten some new products that I have been loving, and I thought I would share them with y'all.

I have been loving the ELF small angled brush for my eye brows. It is a good quality brush for a small amount of money. I believe it was $3 at Target. I will be purchasing more ELF brushes in the future!

I know that some people do not care for gel eyeliner that comes in a little pot because it takes too long to apply in the morning, and trust me I value sleep. A lot! I do not wear this on a day to day basis for that exact reason, but if you are wanting a more dramatic, romantic, cute, daring look then use this eyeliner! This is the best thing I have ever purchased because the pigment is a really sharp, deep black color which I love. It stays on for a very long time. You could have the ugliest biggest, most dramatic cry in the world and it would not budge! It comes with the brush in the picture, and is easy to apply with said brush.

This is another one of my favorite products, which I have mentioned in my previous post about my lipstick collection. This is a Revlon Lip Butter in the shade 075 Lollipop. It is so pigmented and it wears for around 4-5 hours at the most. (I am no expert this is just an estimated guess). It is soft and moisturizing like a chapstick, it is pigmented like a lipstick, and is glossy like a lip gloss. It is the perfect thing for your lips, and I would recommend it to anyone. They do have some neutral colors, but I prefer colors that really stand out.

Here is a better look at the shade!
The picture above does not really do it justice.
(Pardon my hand as it looks weird).

Thank you guys for reading! I hope you liked the layout being a bit different than it normally is. The pictures were just so awkward this time that I thought it would be a fun way to write it. Share in the comments what you think! As always my links are in the right side bar! Kisses<3

Skin care

Hey guys! Every girl knows that skin care is very important. From the very first pimple until you have wrinkles, skin care is very important. Not only your face, but your legs, hands, feet, and everything in between are equally as important.

One of my best friends made me the best exfoliator I have ever used, and gave it to me as a Christmas gift. BEST GIFT EVER! It smelled very good, and made my skin feel super smooth!

By the time I got to take this picture I had used almost all of it...my friend got the recipe on Pinterest. She could not remember which one she used, but there are so many I do not blame her. There are many of these recipes out there, so surely you can find one you like as much as I loved this one! I wish I knew this one because I would give it to everyone I know, and would make it again for myself!

That's all for this post! Tell me about things you use for your skin care routine. Lotions, exfoliators, acne treatments, etc. Tell me everything! I am always looking for new things to make my skin soft and smell good! I will try really hard to post next week, but it will be the first week of classes for me so I am not promising anything. As always my links are all in the side bar to the right! Kisses<3

My Obsession: Lipstick

Hey guys! Even though I am on vacation I cannot help but talk about my favorite makeup product! I love lipstick, and to anybody who knows me this does not come as a shock. Some people like to wear bright eyeshadow, and are great at pulling it off. Other people like to stay safe and wear neutral colors. I like to wear bright lipstick because it pops and is exciting.

I know it is kind of a pathetic collection, but nonetheless I love all of them. The first one is Maybelline from the Vivids collection number 515 Coral Crush. The second is a Revlon Lip Butter number 075 in the shade Lollipop. The next one is a duel lipstick and lip gloss by Ulta. The lipstick is On the Mauve, and the lip gloss is called Cupcake. The next Ulta duel lip color is Smokey Quartz lipstick, and Stellar lip gloss. The next two I have talked about before on my blog. They are my L'Oreal Paris Colour Riche lipsticks. One in the color 350 British Red, and the other is 754 Sugar Plum.

I swatched all of them on my hand to show how pigmented they are. The swatches are in the order of the photo above.

The Maybelline lipsticks is pretty pigmented, and wear time is about 2-3 hours. It shows up a lot brighter on the lips than it does on my hand.

The Lip Butter is amazing, and I will dedicate an entire post to it in the future. It's pigment is very bold, and wear time is 4-5 hours maximum.

The next two are the first Ulta duel with On the Mauve and Cupcake. This is my everyday makeup look lipstick. I love it because it is shimmery and wear time is 4-5 hours. It is very pigmented. However, it is not very bold, but it is a flirty deep pink color.

The first two are the second Ulta duel with Smokey Quartz and Stellar. I wear this mostly in the autumn and winter because it is a deep berry color. Again it has a 4-5 hour wear time, and is very pigmented. It is less shimmery than the other duel.

The next one is Sugar Plum, which is a lighter shade of berry than the duel from Ulta, and it is more shimmery also. Wear time is 4-5 hours, and it is very pigmented.

The last lipstick in my collection is British Red. It is a very bright and bold red color even though it is not showing in the picture. It is exactly like Sugar Plum because they are the same brand and in the same line of lipsticks.

That is it for this post! Tell me what your favorite lipsticks are in the comments. Also, tell me what kinds of colors you wear. Only pinks, bold colors, nudes, a little of everything? Let me know, maybe I will find a new color to experiment with.
