Wet n Wild Color Icon Eyeshadow Palette in The Naked Truth review & swatches

Hello Beauties,

How are you all today? I hope you all are great and enjoying the cold freezing weather! It has been crazy here with negative temperatures. We all I know that there are a lot of new and exciting products hitting the drugstores this year. Many companies have released Spring 2014 products too! How about we just stick to winter right now? One of the new products from Wet n Wild is their new 5 pan eyeshadow palettes. 



Wet n Wild came out with 5 five-pan eyeshadow palettes. I picked up three of them, and today I will be reviewing one for you. I am a big fan of neutral eyeshadows. They go well with my skin tone and I just like them. I got mine at Rite Aid for $3.99 and it also had a $1 off peel of coupon. So a great price, for 5 eyeshadows.

The Naked Truth comes with warm brown shades. Ranging from shimmer to matte, it has all shades to create a warm natural look. As always the Wet n Wild palettes include which shade you should use on your eye. I never really follow that and usually create my own looks.
You might be thinking wow this sounds like a great palette, but lets talk about why its not. First of all, it has a lot of fall out, I just don't like that at all. This palette can not be used without primer, you really need a great primer for the color to really show up. Some of the shadow are really chalky and they don't apply to the brush easily.

The pigmentation for the shimmery shades is alright. But over all it is very lacking in pigmentation. As I said above a great primer is needed for this palette. With a primer the lasting power is longer, but without it will only last you a couple of hours.

Over all, I love the Wet n Wild eyeshadows, but this palette I will really not use that much. Maybe I will have better luck with the other two palettes I picked up. Have you tried this palette? What do you think? Let me know in the comments below.

Thank you so much for reading. I hope you all have a fantastic day. 
 Stay Warm!

Victoria's Secret Sheer Drama Hydrating Lipstick in Can't Wait Review & Swatches

Hello Beauties, 

How are you all today? I hope all of you are having a great day! I have not posted a actual review in a while, so I though to start of this years review posts with a lipstick review.  Now many of you know that I am big fan of all the drugstore lipsticks and balms. This time I thought to buy something different, that I have never tried before.

This is the Victoria's Secret Sheer Drama Hydrating Lipstick which came out in Summer of 2013. There were other shades but I picked up Can't Wait. I have never tried a Victoria's Secret lipstick before, this was on sale so I thought to give it a chance.

Can't Wait is a rosy pink natural shade. I love how it gives you a shine on your lips with very little shimmer. The texture is very moisturizing and almost feels like a balm. When you apply the lipstick, it goes on smoothly and applies evenly.

Also I love the packaging it is very cute and very different from all the lipsticks I own. Can't Wait stays on for about 3 hours, but comes off right away if you drink or eat.

This lipstick is great if you need a wash of color on your lips with a beautiful shine. They are very buttery and go on sheer for a natural look. 




This is a great lipstick for those of you who like moisture in your lipstick. Let me know in the comments below if you have tried any of these lipsticks! Thank you so much for reading.

New Year's Inspiration 2014

Hello Beauties, 

First of all I want to wish all of you a very Happy New Year. I can't believe it is 2014 already! Its time to have a fresh start and make this year an amazing year. One of my biggest inspirations for this year is to live life to the fullest. Do not look back, just live in the moment you are in. 

One of the quotes that really inspired me was "You were given this life because you were strong enough to live it." This quote has so many different meanings for everyone. I take this quote as a positive way to look at things in life. 

You are a very strong person, and don't let any obstacle in this life can't bring you down. Everyone has different ways of looking at things, but most people never looks at things in a positive way. So this year I want to change my point of view and looks at things in a positive way.

Hopefully this year we all looks at things in a positive way. Make this year your best year! What are your inspirations for 2014? Comment below! 

Thank you so much for reading. I am glad to be part of the 2014BloggerChallenge!
