Walgreens & Wal-Mart Haul.

Hey loves,

Woah. Where have I been? I don't know either. I'm back now though. 

So, let's see what I got. 

First up, what I got from Walgreens.

 Rimmel's Provocalips in the shades 120 Pucker Up (top) & 730 Make Your Move (bottom)

Pucker Up (left) looks nothing like I thought it would from the outer packaging. As you can see in the swatch it has SO MUCH GLITTER. Holy crap. It's multi colored glitter too. Green, gold, pink. It looks so frosty on the lips. I'm not a fan. I'm defiantly going to return it. The other one however, Make Your Move (right), is so pretty. I love it. It's kind of in the rosey brown family that is really popular now. I'm excited to wear this one.

Side Note: When I went to wash these off I ended up having to use my eye makeup remover that has oil in it because they would NOT budge. 

L'OREAL's True Match Super-Blendable Makeup in the shade C2 Natural Ivory

I have never used this foundation before. I know, crazy. It's been around forever. Nicole Guerriero on YouTube loves it though so I decided to give it a try since it always look amazing on her.

L'OREAL Brow Stylist Plumper in Medium to Dark 

I did try this out just now & my first impression is that I really like this. It has little fibers in it that I really do think made my brows look a bit bigger. I will have to test this out more though to give my final thoughts on it but so far, so good.

Now what I picked up from Wal-Mart.

Revlon's Nail Polishes in 785 Matte Pearl Glaze Top Coat, 750 Foxy, 933 Chameleon.

Revlon is probably my favorite nail polish at the drugstore. It's been forever since I got any new ones from them though. I'm especially excited about that top coat. I think that it will give a cool effect on the nail.

Maybelline Baby Lips in Twinkling Taupe from the Crystal Lips line (left) & Peach Kiss from the Original Line (right)

 

I have a couple Baby Lips & I love them so much. I'm not as into the Crystal Lips one because of the glitter but I loved the shade so much I wanted to try to make it work. They look very simliar in the swatches but on my lips the Peach Kiss really didn't show up as much as the Twinkling Taupe does.

Hard Candy Sheer Glow in Blushing Babe

This is one of those highlighters that reminds me of a sea shell. I am in love with it so far. I'm also excited to mix it with a bit of lotion & use it on my legs this Spring. 

Covergirl Clump Crusher Mascara in Very Black Waterproof

This is my favorite mascara for the lower lashes. This is probably my 3rd tube.

Well, that's all for now. 

I hope that you have all been well. Sorry that I have been M.I.A.recently.

Until next time....

Stay True & Stay You

March Besties!

Hello lovelies!

Today I have to share with you everything that I was loving during the month of March. 

-Revlon Nearly Naked Makeup in Ivory-

I love this foundation because it looks so natural. I would say that this has a light to medium coverage. My only complaint is that it doesn't have a pump. 

-ELF Studio Blush in Candid Coral (Depotted)-

These blushes have a cult following & it's no wonder why. It's smooth & silky. It's easy to apply because it has just the right amount of pigmentation; not too much & not too little. Plus, this color is perfect for Spring. It also has a nice amount of sheen to it. 

-MAC Pearlmatte Face Powder in In For A Treat (Limited Edition)-

This is one of my favorites highlighters of all time. I wish it wasn't limited edition. It's cute in the pan & looks wonderful & natural on the face. 

-Maybelline Colortattoo in Beige-ing Beauty (Limited Edition)-

This was part of the Dare To Go Nude collection that Maybelline put out. The whole collection is great but this is one of my favorite pieces from it. It has a golen-ish beige base to it & has little golden glitters in it. 

-Covergirl Single Eyeshadow in French Vanilla-

This looks great over the Beige-ing Beauty colortattoo & most days the only shadow I wore were those two together. I put more on the lid & then a light bit under the brow for a highlight. It's great. 

-NYX Love in Florence Palette in Gelato For Two-

I love this little palette. My favorite are the peachy somewhat amber shade on the top left & the dusty lilac under that one. The lilac looks nice blended in the crease either with the peachy amber color in the lid or just the colortattoo. 

-Covergirl Lip Perfection Lipstick in Honeyed- 

This is a great nude pink lipstick. It looks great with any look & is one of those lipsticks that you don't really need a mirror to apply. 

-NYX Butter Gloss in Eclair-

I'm not a huge gloss person but I love this one. The smell is amazing. I want to eat it. Is that weird? I don't know. It looks nice with the Covergirl lipstick too.

-Katy Perry Killer Queen Perfume (Sample Size)-

I got this from a recent Sephora purchase & I am so in love with it. This might be my new favorite perfume of all time. I really want to get the full size as soon as I can. I'm one of those people who usually doesn't buy perfume for myself though. 

-Not Your Mother's Kinky Moves-

If you have curly hair you should try this stuff. It's really nice. It smells like Welch's grade soda! Which is one of my favorite sodas from my childhood. 

Well, that's all for now! I hope that you enjoyed. 

Until next time...

Stay True & Stay You

My Top 15 Lippies For Spring!

 Hello Lovelies! 

Today I wanted to bring you part 2 of my previous post about my top 15 face & eye products for Spring. You can see that post here. Today's post is about my top 15 lippies (as you can tell from the title). So let's get into it. 

1) Burt's Bee Lip Shimmer in Strawberry

As you can tell from the title of this lip balm it does have shimmer but in this particular shade I honestly don't notice it that much. It has a nice minty scent to it & a slight minty tingle on the lips but nowhere near what regular Burt's Bees is like. It's a really nice light pink shade that I think would look nice on anyone. 

2) Maybelline Baby Lips in Pink Punch

I love this lip balm. It feels light on the lips & gives a good amount of moisture & shine. It is a nice bright pink without being super in your face. Plus, it smells like fruit punch which I love. It reminds me of being & kid & drinking Kool-Aid in the summer time while playing outside with my friends. 

3) Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Pink Cloud

This is lipstick has what Revlon calls a "shine" finish. It is a light pink that can be somewhat sheer on the lips but you can also build it up. I think this would look particularly nice on fair skin. On darker skin it might look a bit ashy. There is no smell to these lipsticks. 

4) Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Stormy Pink

This is a bright blue based pink that is truly matte. So if your lips are the least bit dry this lipstick will show it. My favorite way to wear this is by dabbing this on to give more of a stained look.  This color would flatter any skin tone & like the one above this has no smell. 

5) Maybelline Color Whisper in Pin Up Peach

This is a light somewhat pink peach color. It can be worn sheer or you can build it up a bit more. This is the perfect Spring color to me. I love it. To my nose this doesn't really have much of a smell. There is maybe a VERY slight sweet smell but it isn't really noticeable unless you put it right up to your nose.

6) Covergirl Lip Perfection Lipstick in Honeyed

This is a light nude pink shade with maybe just a slight touch of peach to it. It also has a bit of shine. It is a nice nude shade without being so nude that it makes you look like a ghost. I like that this could be flatter on just about every skin tone. 

7) Covergirl Lip Perfection in Delicious

 This is an awesome purple shade without being too in your face. It is one of my favorite lipsticks over all not just for Spring. It does have some pink in it so if you are afraid of wearing purple lipstick this would be a good one to start with. 

8) Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in Nude Lust

This is the perfect nude shade to me. It is nude with just the slightest hint of a peach tone to it so it isn't too brown (which I don't like). I love this lipstick. Before this lipstick I wasn't a fan of nudes in general but this really turned me around. 

9) Rimmel Show Off Lip Lacquer in Nova

This is a super opaque bright pink color. It is super long lasting. It's kind of like a lip paint similar to the OCC Lip Tars. Even after the shine has gone away this leave behind a stain so they are great for a night out or if you are just someone who doesn't like to touch up their lip color. 

10) Jordana Twist & Shine in Sweet Pink

This is a nice neutral pink shade that would look nice on anyone. It does have a staining effect so it last a long time on the lips. Plus, it has a nice slightly sweet scent to it. 

11) Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Lip Stain in Sweetheart 

This is a somewhat sheer bright pink color. It can be a bit drying on the lips after a while though. It lasts forever & can wear off in patches when it does begin to wear off so just beware. 

12) Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Darling

This is my favorite shade from this line. It is a true lilac. This isn't as staining as the shade above but it does last a long time on the lips. 

13) NYX Butter Lipgloss in Eclair

This is a light milky pink shade that look great with any look. It feels really nice on the lips, has good pigmentation, & nice staying time for a gloss. Plus, these things smell HEAVENLY. I want to eat it. 

14) Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Super Natural

 The shade name for this is spot on. It is a super natural looking shade that would be great for any skin tone. These glosses feel really nice on the lips but I wouldn't say that they are moisturizing. 

15) Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Pink Pop

This shade isn't as pigmented as the one above. This one more so gives a nice wash of color to the lips so it is good if you want to try out a bright pink lip but don't want to have it be too in your face. 

Well, that's all for now. I hope that this was helpful. 

What are some of your favorite lip products for Spring?

Until next time...

Stay True & Stay You
