March 2017 Ipsy Bag Review

I just got my Ipsy bag for this month so I decided to do a little review.  The first thing I got was a first aid beauty face moisturizer which I’m really excited to try because I have crazy dry skin.  Then I got OUAI hair mask which I actually got in my sephora play box last month, but I haven’t used it yet even though I probably need too because my hair is bleached.  Then I got a Pur cosmetics concealer in medium, but its a little too dark for my skin so I’m not sure how much use I’ll get out of it.  I got a Tarte lip paint in delish, I love this formula because it drys really quickly and doesn’t move around at all.  And the most exciting thing for me is the INT cosmetics eyeshadow in goddess gold, it is so pretty.  It is a coppery shimmer shadow and I can’t wait to try it out.

NYX Advent Calendar Days 21-24

It’s Christmas Eve! That means this is the last installment of my NYX Advent Calendar. I really enjoyed this Calendar but I think it would have been cool to get a mini mascara or eyeliner somewhere instead of just eyeshadows and lipsticks. I liked how it had a travel theme though and I’m excited to try all the new shades I got.

Left to right: Seoul lipstick and eyeshadow, and Morocco lipstick and eyeshadow.

These lipstick shades are a little bit more intense then some, but I really like the Seoul eyeshadow as a highlight for the brow bone. Anyway that’s it, I hope you enjoyed this little series. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

NYX Advent Calendar Days 13-20

Ok so I know I’m a little behind on this post, but I’ve been so busy getting ready for Christmas. This post will have eight days instead of four and I’ll post the last four tomorrow.

Left to right: Rome lipstick and eyeshadow, Stockholm lipstick and eyeshadow, Cannes lipstick and eyeshadow, and Manila lipstick and eyeshadow.

Out of all these shades I’m most excited to try both Rome products because I love a dark lip and a shimmery gold eyeshadow. I’m not sure about the green Cannes eyeshadow or the bright Manila lipstick as they’re kind of out of my comfort zone, but we’ll see maybe they’ll end up being my new faves.

Sephora Rewards

I recently redeemed a reward at Sephora, buxom sexy little things for 500 points.  I  don’t have much experience with this brand so I decided this was the perfect opportunity to test it out. 

First Impressions: I love the packaging of all the individual products, it’s all so pretty. It comes with four sample products: a mascara, a liquid lipstick, a lip gloss, and an eye shadow.

The mascara looks really good and I’m so excited to use it. I love the applicator, I definitely prefer a denser brush for my eyelashes.

The lipstick and lip gloss are both very pretty as well. Although the lipstick didn’t seem to dry and came off very easily when I swatched them, I’ll definitely have to try it on my lips to see if it stays on better.

And last, but not least the eyeshadow. This was definitely what I was most excited about because of how much I love eyeshadows. The color is so pretty and I’m very excited to try it.

NYX Advent Calendar Days 9-12

Can you believe we’re already halfway in? I’m so psyched for Christmas, but I also want the holiday season to last forever. Anyway, here are the last four days.

Left to right: Copenhagen lipstick, Copenhagen eyeshadow, Addis Ababa lipstick, Addis Ababa eyeshadow

I already own a full sized version of the Copenhagen lipstick, the color is gorgeous. I also really like the eyeshadow it would be great for a holiday makeup look. The Addis Ababa shades are also really pretty, the lipstick is a bright Barbie pink color and the eyeshadow is a shimmery blue-navy color.

NYX Advent Calendar days 5-8

Here are the next four days form my NYX calendar.

Left to Right: Prague lipstick,Prague eyeshadow, Transylvania lipstick, Transylvania eyeshadow.

I’m really into dark lipstick shades so I’m loving the Transylvania lipstick. Both eyeshadows are so pretty and work really well together, their both shimmer shades which I love. I continue to love this Advent Calendar and intend to keep posting what I get until Christmas. Hope you enjoy!

NYX Advent Calendar Days 1-4

Hey, if you read my last post then you know I’m going to be sharing all the goodies I get in my NYX advent calendar. I love advent calendars, they’re one of my favorite things to do during the holiday season. Here are the first four products:

Right to left: Monte Carlo liquid lipstick, Monte Carlo eyeshadow, Milan liquid lipstick, Milan eyeshadow

Here’s the inside of the shadows

So basically every two days you get a matching lipstick and eyeshadow. I’ve tried NYX lipsticks before, but I’ve never tried their eyeshadows, so far I’m loving the colors and the darker shadows, I can’t wait to see how they look on my eyes.

Lipstick Review: Buxom Wildly Whipped Lightweight Liquid Lipstick in Instigator

In my last post I gave my first impressions on the 500 point buxom set from Sephora. So far I’ve been loving it, the lipstick shade looks so good on my skin tone. On top of that it feels very light and doesn’t dry my lips out at all. It’s not as long-lasting as some of the other liquid lipsticks I own, but it doesn’t flake like some do.  Overall I think It’s a great product and I plan to try some new shades in the near future.

Fall Lip Kits

I’m a huge fan of Kylie Cosmetics. I love the formula, one coat lasts all day and I’ve never had a more long lasting lipstick. Naturally when the new fall colors came out I had to have them. All four colors are beautiful and I’m loving them, check out the colors below and buy them here.
