Hi everyone! I know I haven't done a blog post in forever, it's because my camera hasn't been working and I finally got around to getting it fixed. Anyways here are a bunch of products I have purchased lately and my thoughts on them. Enjoy! XOXO
Face products:
|
E.L.F High Definition powder in Sheer: I have been wanting this for forever and I am really happy with it! It is so silky smooth on my skin and sets my foundation wonderfully without making me look cakey. |
|
Revlon Colorstay Whipped foundation in Buff: I love the original Revlon Colorstay however I think it dries way too fast and is a little too thick sometimes. This however has the same coverage as Revlon Colorstay but it doesn't dry as fast and is not quite as thick and I love the way it feels on my skin. |
|
E.L.F Complete Coverage Concealer in Light: I was pleasantly surprised with this. I think it has really nice coverage without making me look cakey but I do wish it was a little creamier. |
|
What my color looks like. |
|
E.L.F Baked Blush in Passion Pink. |
|
E.L.F Baked Blush in Rich Rose. |
|
E.L.F Baked Bronzer in St. Lucia. |
|
Swatches of the blushes and bronzer. From left to right: Passion Pink, Rich Rose, and St. Lucia. I was so excited when E.L.F came out with baked products because I personally love baked products. I was not disappointed in the least either! I think these are pretty darn pigmented especially for how cheap they are. I love the bronzer so much! It's the perfect color for my skin tone. Gorgeous products right here! |
|
E.L.F Studio blush in Blushing Rose. |
|
Swatch of Blushing Rose. I think this is an absolutely amazing color! I love love love how it looks on my skin! |
Eye products:
|
E.L.F Long Lasting Lustrous eyeshadow in Toast. |
|
E.L.F Long Lasting Lustrous eyeshadow in Festivity. |
|
E.L.F Long Lasting Lustrous eyeshadow in Gala. |
|
E.L.F Long Lasting Lustrous eyeshadow in Celebration. |
|
Eyeshadows swatched. From left to right: Toast, Festivity, Gala, and Celebration. I am in LOVE with these! The texture of them is so cool, they are gorgeously pigmented and they work great by themselves or underneath of an eyeshadow. They do last a really long time as well. |
|
E.L.F Baked eyeshadow in Bark. |
|
E.L.F Baked eyeshadow in Enchanted. |
|
Eyeshadows swatched. From left to right: Bark, and Enchanted. I love the pigmentation and formula of these. Great baked neutrual eyeshadows! I would really like to get more. |
|
Too Faced Shadow Bon-Bons collection. |
|
Eyeshadows swatched: From left to right starting at top: Vanilla, Cut the Cake, Framboise, Coffee Bean, Peach Fuzz, Hot Cocoa, Candy Rose, Lovey Dovey, Nude Beach, Cinnamon Sugar, Marzipan, and Licorice Latte. I originally went to Ulta to get the Urban Decay Smoked palette but then I saw this palette for slightly cheaper, it had more colors, and I liked them pigmentation of the shadows better than the Urban Decay one. I am so in love with this palette, gorgeous gorgeous colors, highly pigmented and great formula. My favorite colors are Framboise, Candy Rose, Lovey Dovey, and Cinnamon Sugar but the rest are all very nice colors too. Overall this palette is amazing! |
|
Hard Candy Top Ten eyeshadow collection palette in Smoke Out. |
|
Eyeshadows swatched. I feel like a lot of these colors are hit or miss. I think that two of the purples should be way more pigmented because they look very pigmented in the pan but then they hardly have any color payoff when worn. Same with the black in the palette, it looks grey when worn instead of the rich black you're expecting when you see it in the pan. Overall I feel like these are fairly nice colors but I was quite a bit disappointed with it and I don't think I'll be repurchasing it. |
|
Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-on eye pencil in Zero. |
|
Eyeliner swatched. I bought this because I had heard so many good things about it but in my opinion it is pretty much the same thing as the Covergirl Liquline blast in the black only the Covergirl one is way cheaper. I will continue to use this because it was $19.00 but I think the Covergirl one is just as good if not better. |
|
Too Faced Lashgasm mascara. Oh my gosh where do I even start with this mascara? It is hands down the best mascara I have EVER used! It does amazing amazing things to my little lashes, I honestly don't think my eyelashes have ever looked as amazing as when I where this mascara. It came with my Shadow Bon-Bons palette but I will very likely buy it on it's own whenever I'm done with this tube! |
Lip products:
|
E.L.F Jumbo Lip Gloss stick in Sangria Starters. |
|
Lip gloss swatched. When I saw this I thought oh this is going to be an amazing red! Boy was I wrong, it is red and has a nice color but definitely not what I was expecting, it does feel very very nice on the lips though. I just wish it was more pigmented. |
|
E.L.F Lip Balm in Pink. |
|
Lip balm swatched. I like the sheerness of this, it does give off a little color and it feels SO good and moisturizing on the lips. Great lip balm overall. |
|
E.L.F lipstick in Flirtatious. |
|
E.L.F lipstick in Gypsy. |
|
Lipsticks swatched. From left to right: Flirtatious, and Gypsy. These are only $1.00! And for that price the pigmentation of these are really really great and they feel nice on the lips as well. |
|
E.L.F Super Glossy Lip Shine in Pink Pop. |
|
E.L.F Super Glossy Lip Shine in Goddess. |
|
E.L.F Super Glossy Lip Shine in Strawberry. |
|
E.L.F Super Glossy Lip Shine in Honey Do. |
|
Lipglosses swatched. From left to right: Pink Pop, Goddess, Strawberry, and Honey Do. These lipglosses are super cheap, $1.00 each! They are super duper glossy and shiny though and pretty pigmented. My two favorite are Pink Pop, it's super bright pink on the lips, and Goddess is a beautiful neutral color. |
Nail polishes:
|
ULTA Professional nail polish in Glam Session. |
|
Nail Polish on my nails. I really like this nail polish, I think it's an awesome color, and it doesn't chip too easily . The only bad thing is that it takes 3-4 coats of it to get the color to really show up on your nails. Overall it's a very nice nail polish. |
|
O.P.I nail polish in Do You Lilac It? |
|
Nail polish on my nails. I had been wanting this nail polish for forever and I am beyond happy that I finally got it. I love the formulation and color of this! It only took two coats for it to have a nice pigmented color and the color is just absolutely gorgeous. |
Miscellaneous item:
|
Philosophy shower gel in Have a Cherry Christmas. Holy freaking wow! This stuff smells UH-MAZ-ING! I wish I could drink it. I use it for my body and hair and I absolutely adore the way it smells! I can't say enough good things about this stuff! |
