Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss Review Pinkissimo and Fuchsia Finery

Hello Beauties, 

How are you all today? I hope all of you are having a great day. So you all know I have been loving lippies these day. I am enjoying trying out different lip glosses and lip products from various brands. 

Today I have two lipglosses for you from Revlon. I picked these up about a month and a half ago. I picked up two shades. I loved these during the summer, they were great. The formula is great for these. It applies evenly, and is not sticky at all. These lipglosses have a great range of shades, from shimmers to non shimmers. Lets get to the two I picked up: 

Fuchsia Finery: is a blue based light purple shade. If you look at it in different angels it gives of some purple. It has no shimmer in it, the application is great. I love this shade with netural eyes.

F

Pinkissimo: a medium light pink with lots of shimmer in it. I really love the white shimmer in it, it is great on your lips.

Overall I am really impressed with these Super Lusturos Lipglosses. I will be picking up more shades soon. I really want the red shade. The pigmentation is great. These have lasting power for about two to three hours. I just love the non sticky formula. Also the brush applies the product easily. 

Let me know in the comments below if you have tried any of these lip glosses. Thanks for reading! I will talk to you guys soon! Have a happy day!

Maybelline Master Smoky Shadow Pencil Review

Hello Beauties, 

How are you all today? I hope all of you are having an amazing day. Fall is full on! Leaves are falling, and it is getting chilly outside. I love fall, it is a beautiful season. When fall comes, you all know makeup companies come out with their fall collections. Today I have for you two of the eyeshadow pencils from Maybelline Fall 2013 collection.

So lets start with the packaging, these are mechanical eye pencils that include a smudger. These came out with the fall 2013 line. There are a total of six shades available. These are said to create a perfect smokey eye look.

 

The pencil side is creamy and goes on smoothly. The texture is easily blendable. These do crease if applied without primer, so be sure the primer you are using is good quality. The staying power of these are alright, if applied with the primer they stay longer. 

Smoldering Violet: is a plum purple shade. I love using this shade as an eyeliner.

The one thing I don't like about these shadow pencils is the smudger part. I am not a big fan of it. It just really does not work for me very well. I have not used it for blending my eyeliner. I love just applying the eyeliner by itself. 

The next shade I got was Blue Blaze, it is a shimmery navy blue color. I love to use this as a eyeliner.  

Below is how they looked like when blended with the sponge tip applicator. Again, I am not really a fan of that.

Over all I am not really impressed with these. The only reason I purchased them to use them as eyeliner. These work great as eyeliners but just not as a blended eyeliner. I would recommend these if you are looking a for low end eyeliner. 

Well this is all for today! I hope you enjoyed this post. Let me know in the comments below what you think about these. I also did pick up another shade, I will do a review on that too! Have a wonderful day!

Sally Hansen Triple Shine In Slick Black Nailpolish Review

Hello Beauties, 

Happy Friday! How are you all today? I hope all of you are having a great day! Today I have a nail of the moment for you. I love discovering new nail polish especially from one of my favorite brands. I spotted these new Sally Hansen nail polishes at CVS yesterday and picked up three shades. 

The shade that really called my name, which I am wearing today is Slick Black. There are a lot of other shades available. I am in love with the line and the shades are great.

 Slick Black is a black shade with a lot of small silver and blue glitter in it. It is a very glamour shade.The formula is amazing, it goes on smoothly and is not watery at all. The shine is amazing, it is beautiful in the first coat. I applied two coats, and the shine stays there hence the name triple shine. 

Also I would say that the bottle is very different from what Sally Hansen usually does. The cap comes off to reveal another cap. I love how it is safe like that, and it helps the formula with not drying out.

 

Over all I am really impressed with these new nail polishes. I will be picking up other shades too. Have you seen these yet? Let me know in the comments below. Thank you so much for reading. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

L'Oreal Vlouminous Butterfly Mascara Review

Hello beauties, 

How are you all today? I hope all of you are having an amazing day. Today I have a post for you on a new item from L'Oreal. They recently released the Butterfly Mascara. I looked two to three places for it, and finally found it at a drugstore. I grabbed it right away. I have been wanting to try this mascara for a long time. I have used this for a couple of weeks now and now I have a review for you guys. 

Let's start with the adorable packaging. I love the gold and black, and love how sleek it is. I got this mascara in Black. I have used other L'Oreal mascaras but are not a fan of them. I only wanted to try this mascara because of the name. It is a standard mascara, but I love the brush it comes with it. It is a "winged" brush that separates every lash. 

The formula of this mascara is great, I love how it does not smudge at all. It applies easily and lengthens your lashes right away. I usually apply two to three coats, and it works perfectly fine for me. Also the formula evenly applies to every lash. 

I don't use this on my lower lashes, I feel like the brush is not really great for it. Over all I really love this mascara. I am impressed with how it lengthens your eyelashes fully. 

If you see this mascara anywhere in the stores, I would reccommend that you pick it up. It is great to have it in your collection, and also is great for everyday use. I hope you all enjoyed this post, have a wonderful day!

L'Oreal Colour Riche LaLaque in I Laque You A Lot Review

Hello Beauties, 

How are you all? I hope all of you are having a wonderful day. It is getting cold here. Looks like it is going to be a brutal winter. Well I am ready for it! Today I have a very exciting post for you. I will be sharing with you one of the new Loreal Colour Riche Lalaque lipsticks I picked up! 

First of all lets talk about the sleek packaging, I love how the shade shows up on the tube it self. The collection just recently just came out, there are a lot of matte and lacque shades. I only picked up one because I wanted to try it first! 

"I Laque You A lot" is a bright red shade with orange undertones. It goes on very smoothly and has the most amazing shine. I am in love with the pigmentation of these lipsticks. You can definitely build this shade up. It is really creamy and smooth. 

The lasting power is great. Mine stayed on for almost three hours, also when it fades away it leaves a light stain on your lips. The scent is great too, not overwhelming. 

Have you tried these yet? Which shades are your fav? Let me know in the comments below. I hope you all enjoyed this post. I will be picking up more shades so keep your eyes peeled for more reviews. Have a wonderful day! :)

Maybelline Color Tattoo Metal Review

Hello Beauties, 

How are you all today? Hope all of you are having an amazing day and are in your best health. As you all know I am a big fan of Maybelline Color Tattoo's. So I decided to pick up two more the other day from the drugstore. Now I have a review for you guys today. 

Let's begin with just how great these color tattoo's are. They go on smoothly, they do not dry up at all. I love how you can use these as a primer and apply eyeshadow above it. There is a huge shade collection in the color tattoo line, and I own six of them. Lets get into the shades. 

~  Inked In Pink (55): Is a light pink shade with shimmer. I wear this shade alone on my lid with some black eyeliner. It has a metallic finish, which just looks amazing on the eye. It is a really pigmented shade, and I love how creamy it is.

~ Barely Branded (70): Is a creamy beige shade. It has great gold metallic shimmer in it. This is another shade that you can wear on your lid alone. It has great staying power, and goes on smoothly. You can also build up this shade, or create a brown golden look by adding a matte brown on your lid.  

Over all I love these color tattoo's they are amazing. I would recommend them to everyone who is looking for a great creamy shadow. Let me know in the comments below if you have any of these. I hope you all enjoyed this post. Talk to you guys soon! Have a wonderful day!
