Revlon Color Stay in Blue Slate

Hello Beauties,

How are you all today? I hope you guys are having a wonderful day and enjoying each and every moment. Today I have a NOTM post. I have been trying out a lot of different nail polishes for the past couple of weeks, buying more and trying what I already have. And trust me I have so much nailpolish, probably could last me a whole year if I change it everyday! I know it is sad, but I love nail polish and nothing can stop that.

Okay, lets got on with the shade. I am waring Blue Slate by Revlon. This is my first Color Stay nailpolish, and I  must stay I am pretty impressed. Blue Slate is a blue and grey toned shade. I love the formula, it was great to apply not tick and not too thin. Also it had a great shine, even though I have a top coat on, but the nailpolish it self is really shiny.

Also I like the packaging of this nailpolish line, it is very unique. I would recommend this shade, and the color stay line for everyone.

Here are swatches:



   I hope you all enjoyed this post. Let me know if you have tried out any of the Color Stay polishes. Have a great day and talk to you guys soon!

Ipsy Bag May 2013

Hello Beauties, 

How are you all today? I hope everyone is having a great day! Today's post is going to be about my May Ipsy bag. Don't know what Ipsy is? Let me sum it up for you: It is a beauty monthly subscription for $10. Every month you get 4-5 products (full/sample size). I think its great because they have great brands and you get to try a lot of different things! 

I used to subscribe to Ipsy, but I unsubscribed for a couple of months. But now I am back to it. This month I received 5 products, in which two of them are full size and the rest sample. Also the Ipsy subscription comes with really cute bags! 

1: Zoya Nailpolish: I was really excited to get the polish. As you all know I am a really big fan of Zoya polishes! I got mine in the shade in Piaf. It is a light yellow metallic shade with a shimmer finish. 

2: Juicy Beauty Reflecting Lipgloss: This is a great gloss, I also love the shade. I have not tried it yet. 

3: Macadamia Heating Oil Treatment: I know this will be a great product because Macadamia is an amazing brand. This is a Heat Oil Treatment. I can not wait to try it. 

4: St. Tropez Body Lotion:This is  lotion which gives your skin a perfect glow. I did "swatch" this, I did not like it. There was too much "glow" I guess. I am impressed with the lotion it self, but it has too much shimmer. 

5: Yaby Concealer. To be honest I have not tried this, and this was not my shade. So I handed it over to my sister.

Here are the pics:

Birchbox May 2013 (US)

Hello Beauties, 

How are you all doing? Ready for summer? I am! So May is almost over and its time to do my monthly boxes/bags reviews! Today I am going to be sharing with you the monthly box of Birchbox!

As you all know, Birchbox is a monthly beauty box, for $10 you get beauty products/samples to try out. And if you like them and are satisfied you can go on and order full size products. 



So lets get on with what I received this month in my box. I received 5 products. 

1~ Amika: Obliphica Nourishing Mask. It is a hair mask to repair split ends. I haven't used this yet, but will keep you posted. 

2~ Coola: Sunblock Cucumber Moisturizer for face. It is a SPF 30 sunblock, I have heard many great things about this brand. I haven't tried this yet, but summer is coming so I surely will. 

3~ Sumita: Color Contrast Eyeliner. This is a pencil eyeliner and I got mine in black. I have tried this and it is a great eyeliner. It glides on smoothly and is easily blendable. And its also lasts for a long time. 

4~ Marvis: Classic Mint Toothpaste. I am in love with this past! It is great, and also the mint feels like it really cleans your teeth. I have used the whole tiny tube! Maybe I will be ordering the full size. 

Also Birchbox gave an extra "Lifestyle" Product

5~ Runa: Guayusa Tea. These are green tea bags, I drank it once and it is great. I love the taste and it also has caffeine, great for a coffee drinker like me. 

Over all I am impressed with this months box. It gave a lot of different options. My most favorite thing from this box was the toothpaste.

Neutrogena Moisture Smooth Color Stick in Juicy Peach (10)

Hello Beauties,

How are you all today? I hope you are having a great day! Lately I have been picking up a lot of different lip colors and lip products. I was never a big fan of lipstick or lip gloss, but for the last two months or so I have been in love. Today I'm sharing with you one of my newest finds and I possibly believe my best finds ever.

This is the Neutrogena's Moisture Smooth Color Stick. It is a moisturizing lip balm but in a stick form. I have found this product very moisturizing. It keeps my lips smooth and soft, and doesn't wear off! The shade itself is a natural peachy shade, and it smells like peaches too! I also love the packaging, it has a clear top, and the balm it self is twist able. You get much more product out of it.

One thing that I really love about this product is that it is so moisturizing! The first time I wore it I was really surprised at how smooth my lips felt. This is the first lip product I have tried from Neutrogena and I am really impressed. This cost me about $10 and I picked mine up at Rite Aid. I actually picked up two but I haven't tried the other one yet.

I recommend this for everyone. It smells great and the product stays on your lips for a long time and moisturizers them! What else could you want from a color stick?

Here is what it look like:





I hope you all enjoyed this post! Let me know in the comments below if you have tried this balm? Or what is your favorite moisturizing lip balm?

Revlon Perle Eyeshadows Review

Hello Beauties,

How are you all doing today? Hope you all are enjoying the beautiful spring weather. Lately I have been really into lip glosses and lip products and have forgotten about other beauty products. So today I thought to review for you two Revlon eyeshadwos that I picked up a while ago. I really enjoy wearing eyeshadows, and believe that they really enhance the eye.I also love the packaging of these Perle eyeshadwos. They are really nice and seeing what the shade looks like is great.

Black Galaxy: Let me start with how pigmented this shade is. It glides on smoothly and isn't that much powdery. Black Galaxy is a dark black shade, with dark blue/silver shimmer. You can use this shade for a perfect smokey look.

Lilac Shimmer: The name describes it all. This shade is a light lilac, with lots of shimmer. I love wearing this with my purple tops. Also you can use this as a undereye eyeliner.It also has silver shimmer, and trust me it doesnt look all that bad on the eye. One bad thing I am going to say about this one is that it has a lot of fall out.

This line came out a couple of years ago, but they are still great eyeshadows. Also they are very affordbale. I wold reccomend these for someone whos looking for shimmery eyeshadows, and doesnt want to spend so much money.










I hope you all enjoyed this post. Let me know in the comments below which shade is your favorite. I love both of them, but personally I wear Lilac Shimmer the most. Dont forget to follow me on twitter! Have a wonderful day, and talk to you guys soon!

Zoya Lo

Hello Beauties, 

How are you all today? I hope all of you are having a great day. Today I have a NOTM. I am wearing Zoya's Lo. It is a really pretty bright pink. I love this standard pink shade. It has a pretty shine to it, in two coats it gives a pretty shine.

This shade is amazing for spring and summer. I love how its not too bright, but it looks great on the nails. As you all know I am a big fan of Zoya polishes. Their formula is amazing, and the nail polish applies perfectly. I always wear a bottom and top coat to keep the manicure for longer. 

Here are the pictures: 






I hope all of you enjoyed this post. I will be posting more Nail of The Moments. Tell me what is your favorite shade for spring? Don't forget to follow me on Twitter

Maybelline Color Show Pacific Blues (Limited Edition)

Hello Beauties, 

How are you all on this gorgeous day? Spring is almost over, and summer is almost here! There are a lot of Summer 2013 collections coming out in the drugstores. And of course I had to go check them out! My recent visit to the drugstore I picked up two of the Maybelline Color Show (LE) Summer 2013 nail polishes. There were other great shades too, but two really popped out to me. Today I will be sharing with you Pacific Blues. 

Pacific Blues is a real nice blue shade. It has no shine, I had to get the shine with a top coat. I like this deep blue shade, it is perfect for spring and summer. One bad thing I am going to talk about this shade is that the formula was not great at all. The polish was really thin, and went on gloppy. The brush was alright, but I think I just got the bad bottle. I have tried Maybelline's Color Show polishes before and the formula is great. For this shade, I had a really hard time with the polish. And it also had very bad smell, it smelled of high chemicals (not the usual nail polish smell). Also the polish chipped right away. 

I am impressed with this shade, but just not the formula it self. The other shades in the collection are great also. Be sure to check them out. Maybelline has always been my favorite company, I don't think they will ever let their customer down. 

I would recommend this shade for someone who doesnt have a blue in their collection. Other then that, check out the rest of the collection! Just remember its Limited Edition and they are selling out fast.







Thanks for reading everyone. Let me know what you think about this shade in the comments below. Also have you picked out any of these polishes latley? Which shades? 

I am posting a lot on my Tumblr so be sure to follow me there. Here is a link: http://drugstoredreamer.tumblr.com/ Click to follow me on Tumblr!

CoverGirl Eye Enhancers Quad in Goldmine

Hello Beauties, 

How are you all doing? Enjoying the lovely spring days? I am! Although I miss winter I dont mind having a little bit of spring around before summer comes. We can talk all about the weather on twitter lets talk about todays post now! 

Today I am going to be reviewing for you CoverGirls Quad in Goldmine. I picked up a lot of these quads in different colors. First of all, I like a lot of covergirl products, but these quads just really didn't do for me. 

This one contains 4 shades, we have a green, a bronze, dark brown, and light shimmery pink. I don't think I will use the green in a eye look, but the rest of the 3 colors make a great combo. First of all the pigmentation of these shades are not that great. I am really impressed with the colors, but the pigmentation very poorly done! 

Even with a great eye primer, the product it self is very powdery, and to be honest I don't like it. I picked up 5 of these quads and they are sitting in my drawer. I have already reviewed one of the quads here , I was also not impressed with that one! 

I haven't done any swatches of this pallet because there was no point of it. The color wont show up! 

Here is what the palette actually looks like: 







Hope you all enjoyed this post, and now have an idea how these Covergirl quads are. Let me know in the comments below if you have tried any of these. 

Have a great day! And talk to you guys soon! Thanks for reading!

Maybelline Color Whisper in Pink Possibilities (65)


Hello Beauties, 

How are you all today? Hope you are having a great day and enjoying every moment. Lately I have been really into lip products. I am picking up a lot here and there. As you all know I am in love with Maybelline baby lips! So I thought to give other Maybelline lip products a try. Today's post is one of the Maybelline Color Whispers. 

Pink Possibilities is a light pink shade with a glossy finish. I am in love with the Maybelline Color Whispers, first of all they are really moisturizing. My lips stay soft and smooth after applying this. The shade is not that bright, it is perfect for everyday day time look. I like wearing this shade with a natural eye look. This shade is perfect for every skin tone. This is also a very buildable shade, which means the pigmentation is great.  I love pinks and they go with anything. 

Also the Maybelline Color Whispers come in great packaging. I love how the name is displayed in cursive writing. Also the cap of the lipstick is the shade (sometimes it doesn't match perfectly with the shade it self.) 

I would recommend the maybelline color whispers for anyone who's looking for a great price moisturizing lip product with light color. I am thinking of picking a couple of this in the next coming week.







I hope you all enjoyed this post. Let me know if you have tried any of the Color Whispers. Do you like this shade? Have a great day and hope to talk to you soon!
