NEW Revlon Cream Blush in Charmed Enchantement (150) Review & Swatches

Hello Beauties, 

How are you all today? I hope everyone is having a great day! It is definitely getting cold here and I am not enjoying it at all. How is the weather where you are? 

Well weather aside today I have a really exciting post for you all. As you all know I love finding new drugstore makeup. These days Revlon has many many new products hitting the stores. Today I have a review of the new cream blushes. I am not a big blush fan, but recently I have been buying and trying some. Cream blushes never appealed to me, but now I am completely in love with Revlon Cream Blushes. 
This cream blush is from Revlon's new collection called "Cheek Boutique", it is a collection for Spring of 2014. This collection has powder blushes as well, but this was the only cream blush available. I am not sure if this is limited edition or permanent. Over the years Revlon has come out with Photoready cream blushes, which I have never tried. 

Lets get into this cream blush. I am really impressed with the simple packaging, I like how it is in a cute little pot. It comes in a cardboard package with all the ingredients listed on the back. 

Charmed Enchantement is a creamy pink rose shade. It goes on smoothly on the cheeks and can be applied with fingers or a brush. I prefer using your fingers because it blends evenly and does not crease. The dry down time is great, and this blush is great for any skin type. 
The blush lasted on my cheeks about 3 hours and then it started fading. It does not leave any color behind though. I like this blush for a natural look, or if you are in a hurry you can just apply it with your fingers and your good to go.
Over all I am really impressed with the new cream blush. I might be picking up more, when they start coming to mass drugstores. If you don't have the photoready cream blushes, this might be a great blush to pick up and try. I hope you all enjoyed this post. 

Let me know in the comments below, how you apply your cream blushes? Thank you so much for reading and talk to you soon!

Revlon Colorburst Lacquer Balm in Vivacious (120) Review and Swatches

Hello Beauties, 

How are you all today? I hope all of you are having a great day and enjoying life. Today I have a very exciting post for you. Many of you have heard and seen about the new Revlon Lacquer and Matte balms. They are great, and today I am reviewing a lacquer balm for you.

First of all lets talk about the packaging. This is the same packaging as they Revlon Kissable Balm stains. Which I think is great, the tube and the product are the same shade. You get 2.7 grams of product.
These new lacquer balms are very creamy and moisturizing. They apply great, and the pigmentation is amazing. I feel very comfortable wearing the balm, even with my dry lips the lacquer balm still has amazing shine.

Vivacious is a very creamy hot pink shade. I love this shade for anytime of the year. The balm does have a light tingly feeling to it when you apply it.


The application is great, Vivacious lasted me hour and a half. Which is not bad for a creamy balm, I have to reapply very lightly though.
Over all I am really impressed with this balm. The shade is a great hot pink, lasts long and has great moisturizing and is pigmented. What more could you want in a balm?

Have you tried these balms yet? Let me know what shades are your favorite? I hope you all enjoyed this post. Have a great day and as always talk to you soon!

Maybelline On the Runway Fall Collection 2013 Fall Temptation Eyeshadow Quad Review


Hello Beauties, 

How are you all today? I hope everyone is having a great day! I am sipping on some coffee right now and enjoying the cool weather! I can't believe it is November already, winter is on its way! Today I have a review for you all on a fall product from Maybelline. 

I don't own a lot of Maybelline Eyeshadow Quads. I think I have one, but never really used it. When I saw the fall collection quads popping up on blogs, and getting great reviews I knew I had to pick them up. I picked up three quads, today I will be reviewing Fall Temptation. The moment I opened this quad up and swatched it I fell in love with it. 

First of all lets talk about the packaging, these come in a standard Maybelline quad package. There are four eyeshadows and it also includes a small brush, which I really don't use. I like the packaging, it is great for travel too. 

The eyeshadows are great if you love neturals. I love this quad for everyday use, it is easy to grab and also to throw in your purse if you need touch ups. It comes with four shimmery eyeshadows. The first shadow is a gold shimmery champagne color. Second is light shimmery gold, third is taupe shade with blue shimmer. The last shade is a matte brown with light shimmer in it. 
As you can tell the shadows are great and very pigmented. They are very smooth and don't have a lot of fall out. You can create so many different looks with just four eyeshadows. This quad is perfect for fall or any time of the year. Over all I am really impressed with this quad. I also bought a couple of other shadow quads and will be reviewing them soon! 
I hope you all enjoyed this post. Talk to you guys soon! I hope I am not slacking anymore. Thank your for reading and keeping up with me. Enjoy your day!

October Favorites 2013

Hello Beauties,

How are you all today? First of all Happy November! I hope everyone is having a great beginning of the month. It is getting a little chilly over here, but no snow yet! Today I have my October Favs for you. I have been loving a lot of different beauty products this month, but I picked five from all. Fall was a great season for beauty products, and enjoyed a lot.
1) NYX Love in Paris Be Our Guest Maurice: This has amazing purple tone shades. Great for everyday use. I have been using the NYX love in Paris palettes a lot this month. The pigmentation is great also.

2) Maybelline Color Tattoo Metal in Inked in Pink: This color tattoo was my go to eyeshadow for this month. I used it alone on my lid and it created a perfect look.

3) Revlon Colorburst Lacquer Balm in  Demure Reservee (105): I am loving the new Revlon Colorburst balms. They are great for moisturizing, and the shades are amazing. I love this one because it goes great with the inked in pink on the eyes.
4) L'Oreal Lineur Intense Liquid Eyeliner in Carbon Black: I rediscovered this eyeliner this month. It is just beyond amazing.

5) L'Oreal Butterfly Mascara: I can't just tell you guys how much I love this mascara. It gives my lashes volume and lengthens them! I have a full review coming soon!

I hope you all enjoyed this post! What were your fav beauty products from October? Share with me in the comments below! Hope you all have a great day! Talk to you soon!
