Maybelline Master Graphic Eyeliner ny Eyestudio Review & Swatches






Maybelline eyeliners are one of my favorite eyeliners, I love their Stiletto eyeliner and use it every single day. Recently I came across this graphic eyeliner and I had to pick it up and see what it does. First of all the packaging is really bulky and the eyeliner cap is very thick. The eyeliner brush or the tip is slanted and angled. With this tip you can create a thin or a thick line, so far I have only created thin lines. You can create a line very easily, but I did realize that the liner skip a lot. You have to have a really steady hand with this liner.

The formula of this liner is alright it goes on very thick and black on the lids. It does skip a little and dries very quickly so you have to work very fast. I did not notice any flaking though through out the day. Once I run of this eyeliner I won't be purchasing it again, I never create thick lines and it is kind of hard creating thin lines with this eyeliner. I have dry lids so this eyeliner does not settle on my lids that great. Maybelline has so many other eyeliners that work great and last all day long with flaking or smudging. Let me know in the comments below your thoughts on this liner. Have you tried it? Thank you for reading and have a great day.

Revlon Not Just Nudes Passionate Nudes Shadow Palette Review & Swatches









Are you all ready for another Revlon palette review? I am! Recently Revlon came out with two new eyeshadow palettes that include 10 shadows. I think this is the first time Revlon has done something like this but they usually have single shadows and quads. I have already posted the first review of this palette collection HERE so check it out and let me know what you think. 

This eyeshadow palette includes 10 shadows that are great for everyday use. Passionate Nudes includes warm tones and has matte and shimmer shades. As I started swatching the shades I noticed that they are super dry and very hard to swatch. I had to really dig in and get some shadow out to swatch. Maybe its the first layer type of thing? At first look I thought these shadows will be pigmented and buttery but they were a disappointing. I applied these shadows with and without primer, with primer they applied well and didn't crease that much. Without primer these blended out to look like the same shade and creased on me. Also it was really hard to blend out the shades even with the best blending brush. The shadows didn't last me a a long time on the lids and started fading within a couple of hours. Over all I am not really that impressed with this shadow palette. I can add a couple of extra dollars and get a high end palette. Let me know in the comments below your thoughts on this palette. Thank you for reading and have a great day.

New Burt's Bees Lipstick in Sunset Cruise Review & Swatches










I love Burt's Bees tinted lip balms, they are very smooth smell great and are affordable. When I heard Burt's Bees came out with a whole new collection of lipsticks I was super excited to try them out. Drugstore has been coming out with some great products and I am really excited to share all the reviews with you guys. 

First of all lets talk about the packaging of this lipstick. I think this is the most different lipstick packaging I have seen in the drugstore. It is really creative, the lipstick comes housed in a square tube with the shade name on the bottom. Sunset Cruise is a beautiful almost orange shade that is glossy. The formula of this lipstick is super creamy and it glides on your lips very easily and is super smooth. I love the scent of these lipsticks, they smell really good that you want to almost taste the lipstick. The pigmentation is really not that great on these lipsticks, you have to swipe four to five times in order for the color to show up. The lipstick lasted me five to six hours with eating and drinking, it really kept my dry lips moisturized. Over all I am really impressed with this lipstick and the formula is great. Let me know in the comments below your thoughts on this lipstick. Thank you for reading and have a great day. 

oxoxo,
Annie

Maybelline Vivid Matte Liquid Lipstick in Nude Thrill Review & Swatches








Happy New Year everyone! I hope this year is amazing for you all and brings you all the happiness! Recently Maybelline came out with new liquid lipsticks in 10 shades and they are a big hype in the beauty industry. I have already reviewed a shade HERE so be sure to check that review out. The shades in this collection range from nudes to bright dark shades. I only picked up two shades to try out but will surely go back for more.

First of all lets talk about the packaging of this lip stick. It comes in a glass container with the shade name on the bottom. You can actually see the shade through the glass which is great if you want to organize these in a clear lipstick holder. The formula of this liquid lipstick is great, it goes on smoothly on the lips and stays there. This shade is a beautiful every day shade that can be worn with a natural or smoky eye. Also this shade is great for any skin tone it will compliment all. The lipstick lasted me five to six hours with eating and drinking. It is great for a drugstore liquid lipstick to last this long on the lips. I love the applicator it is great to apply all over your lips with one swipe and is perfect for the shape of the lips. This liquid lipstick ranges from $7-$10 depending on where you get it from. Over all I am really impressed with this liquid lipstick from Maybelline and would love for all of you go get your hands on it. Let me know in the comments below your thoughts on this post. Thank you for reading and enjoy 2016!!
