Hard Candy Glamoflauge Concealer


Yay another Hard Candy product:) I can honestly say that this is my favorite concealer that I own. I'm always trying to hide my under eye circles that just never seem to go away, seriously... I can sleep for 10 hours and I still have them when I wake up. So when I finally bought this after hearing reviews on it, I was super happy with the quality. Its very thick and you might think that it will crease but if you blend it in well enough it gives really great coverage without creasing. The color I have is in medium and I believe theres only 3 different shades but I might be wrong. I bought mine for around $6 at Walmart, because its only sold there now. This is a great inexpensive concealer so you guys should check it out if you have a Walmart close by:)

E.l.f Haul Finally Here!



I'm super excited to get this after waiting 2 weeks! I'll be doing a review on the blushes after I try them out and also the eyeshadow compact. One of the colors I chose were out of stock so my compact only had 3 colors in it which kind of sucks...

Mascara of the Day: Maybeline The Falsies

So first of all I want to let anyone who is about to go out and by this, don't be tricked by the name! I do really like this mascara but like every other one, it doesn't make your lashes look anything close to how thick fake ones do. This is still a really great mascara though, the wand is curved so it really helps during application. And I really love the formula, it's not too water or too dry, it in between. You can find this at any drug store and it costs around $7-$8.

Mascara of the Day: Rimmel Sexy Curves



Most of you guys know that this is a very popular favorite on Youtube and is probably some of your favorites too! I  love this mascara, I honestly don't have anything bad to say about it. The wand is great for applying, the packaging is super nice and the formulation is amazing. This mascara is sold for about $8 at all drugstores. The wand of this mascara is so unique and I think that's why so many people are in love with this product. This would be one of my mos recommended drugstore mascaras and I think its a must have for you collection

Revlon Illuminance Cream Shadows Review



 I know a lot of you aren't wanting to spend  $20 on a Mac Paint Pot and I totally agree with that! I think that these Revlon Cream Shadows are a way better deal. I can't tell you if they are dupes for the Mac Paint Pots but i can tell you that they have great pigmentation and are great under your powdered eye shadows. The 2 quads I own are 710 Not Just Nudes(darker quad), and 740 Seashells(lighter quad). The Seashells quad is perfect to use as highlights for any look but can also really improve you powder eye shadows color. I don't remember exactly how much I payed for these but I know that they are around $8-$12. You do get a lot of product inside because you don't need to use a lot when applying. These quads really have multi purpose uses, they can be used as an all over lid color, under your eyeshadow as a base, as a brow bone highlight or even a cheek bone highlight. Here are the swatches of each quad;

Sally Hansens Complete Salon Manicure

From left to right: 540 Frutti Petutie,510 I Pink I Can, 520 Shrimply Devine, Dianthus, 470 Purple Pulse


 
I can honestly say that I own more nail polish than I can wear in a year. I've tried a bunch of different brands and this one stands out to me. First of all the applicators really get the job done because the are bigger than a normal sized nail polish brush and I find that it works better. I really love almost all the colors that the have even though I only own mostly pinks there are a lot of other shades that I will eventually buy. My 2 most favorite colors that I own are 520 Shrimply Devine, and 510 I Pink I Can. I love how pigmented these shades are because that means you don't have to use many coats which is really annoying sometimes. I usually use about 2 coats and that builds the color up really well. If you don't have the time to do 2 coats, you can get away with doing only 1 coat with certain colors like the darker ones. The price of these nail polishes are around $8 or$9 at most drugstores or walmart and I think that's a good deal because the colors are beautiful and they are really good quality nail polishes.

Fav. NYC Lipsticks

Colors(from left to right): 312 Chiffon, 409 Fragile Pink, 313B Wild Orchid, 301 Cafe

I love these NYC lipsticks because they have really good pigmentation and they are super cheap. Also the stay power is decent for a $2 lipstick and the colors are gorgeous! If you are looking to buy a nice pink shade of lipstick, I would go with Fragile Pink( the second color from the left) This is my favorite shade of pink lipstick because its not too like and not too dark so it shows up pink on my lips but its not too overpowering. Chiffon is a really light pink that will give you a frosty pink lip. Wild Orchid and Cafe might look really dark in the packaging but on your lips they don't look as harsh.
Here are the swatches for you guys, they're in the same order as the other picture above:)
