NYX Transylvania Soft Matte Lip Cream

Hiya Everyone! I am here today to talk about the NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in The shade Transylvania. I searched for AGES for this color and one day when I wasn't even looking for it, I came across a FULL display at my local Ulta which is unheard of! 
Needless to say I bought many things, one of which was this lip creme.


Upon seeing the color online I was expecting it to be blacker than it is. This shade is not black but a deep dark plum purple color. It's gorgeous! I love this color! 

Yes it is summer but I can assure you I will find a way to rock this color! It dries matte on the lips, it's gorgeous. These are 5.99 at Ulta so affordable and amazing!

Really An AMAZING CONCEALER

Hiya! I am here today to tell you about the Amazing Cosmetics Amazing Concealer and this is REALLY an Amazing Concealer!


Oh my gosh! I was not expecting a concealer literally this amazing! I love this stuff. A little goes a long way and I have blue discoloration on the sides of my nose by my eyes and this covers it flawlessly like nothing else will! I highly recommend this! 

I have the shade fair but there are 20 different shades in their line so if you need a concealer they probably have a shade for you!

This is a higher end concealer so it is a bit pricier than drugstore concealers but it is so worth it. As I said a little goes a long way! One tube will last for quite some time! 

This is available for purchase on the amazing cosmetics web site.
Amazingcosmetics.com
And at Sephora or Ulta!

Tarte Flush Cheek Stain Review

Hello People of the Internet! 
Long time no update! I assure you I am back and better than ever now! Before we get into the review I'd like to urge you to go and check out my YouTube channel where I post reviews, first impressions, and magic, every single day! Okay now onto the review! 

I purchased this Tarte Flush Cheek Stain at Sephora. I am not a person that is big on blush. I never wear blush that often but I thought that I would try this and I have been blown away! 

I love this cheek stain! It's in stick form and it glides onto your cheeks perfectly and blends out beautifully! It's just a natural flush of color but it's so gorgeous. This is such an underrated product! I had never even seen any other youtubers talk about it! 
 
Wear time is about 8 hours if you set it with a translucent powder. It's amazing! You need to check these out if you haven't! I know there is an entire line available at Sephora and Ulta and also online from Tarte directly! 


Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed!

J. Cat Beauty Wonder Lip Paints

Hiya Everyone! I am here today to share my thoughts on the J. Cat Beauty Wonder Lip Paints! I have three of these pictures below and I must say I LOVE LOVE LOVE the color payoff with these it's out of this world!


The three I have are all Alice in wonderland themed. From left to right they are Always Late, rabbit and Underland and Queen of Harts. My favorite of the three would have to be Underland in the middle. It's very wearable but still fun! 

These have a minty/chemical smell mixture but not over powering and once it's on your lips it doesn't smell! I hadn't seen these in stores but I had seen them online. Recently they announced that Ulta carried them! I haven't been there to check but if you are be sure to pick up a few they have a huge range of colors! 

Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyed! If you have any questions, comments, or video requests please leave them in the comments below!

Is this real life? Urban Decay Naked 4

Hiya Everyone!

I hope your all having a good day. I came across the picture below online earlier this morning and I'd be lying if I didn't say I was excited. Is it real?! Sadly we don't know. 


I love the shades and the colors. I'm praying this is real but who knows? 

I did my research and it seems that it's not a legit urban decay product. But, you can still buy it online from China. I won't be doing that because of shadow quality and ingredients but please Urban Decay MAKE THIS PALETTE REALITY!

EBAY Selling Guide: How to Get Products To Sell Online


Hiya Everyone!
This is my third and final installment of my Ebay Selling Guide Series! I hope you enjoy! This selling guide focuses on Promotional Items aka Freebies.

We've all seen promotional items for sale or gift with purchases. Sometimes you buy makeup at Nordstroms and get a limited edition special makeup bag that you only get with that purchase or you get a travel size of an item or a sample size. But a lot of people don't use these items, they sell them.


Pictured above are Two Peter Thomas Roth freebies given out as gifts with purchase when buying skincare! As you can see this seller is selling them as a set for 9.99.

When selling these promotional items be clear in what you are listing. BE SURE TO LIST THE SIZING OF THE PRODUCTS. This is a big one because buyers will come back on you to say the item was falsely advertised. List your product sizing. Like is this a travel size, a sample size, or a full size? 

Also be sure to list if it was a limited edition product or if it was specific to one store for example Macy's, Dillard's, or Nordstrom.

Urban Decay good Kharma Optical Blurring Brush Review

Hiya Everyone! 
I'm here today to share my thoughts on the Urban Decay Good Kharma Optical Blurring Brush. 


I purchased this brush from sephora around Christmas time but it is still available now. I believe it is 28.00 but don't quote me on that. This was my first ever urban decay brush, even before I had my naked 3 palette. 

I fell in love with urban decay brushes and I wish they made more and had a wider selection to choose from. 

This brush is extremely soft and very dense. This brush is a lot heavier than I had expected it would be, it's a very sturdy brush. I have washed this brush several times and I have had no bristles fall out. It's amazing for applying foundation and/or powder and it makes you look flawless and airbrushed.

I highly recommend this brush if that's something that your looking for. 

Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed!

Dior Lipstick and Perfume Gift Set Overview

Hiya everyone! 
I have had this Dior set for awhile and I should I would share it with you all. 
 

Dior is one of my favorite brands, I love their products. With saying that, I do love this. This gift set came with a mini Dior Addict Perfume, a mini Dior Addict Lipstick and a Dior necklace, in a little Dior box! 

I love it all, I believe this ran around 25.00 which for Dior isn't bad at all since it is a luxury brand. I love mini and/or travel sized items so this was perfect for me to get to try two Dior items without spending insane amounts of money on them. 

Stay tuned for in depth reviews on the Dior lipstick and perfume!

Too Faced Fall Collection Palettes

Hiya Everyone!
I cannot contain my excitement anymore! Too Faced released their fall palettes and they are available on ulta online right now to order at 36.00 a piece. There are three of them but honestly I am only interested in two. 


The three palettes are: cat eyes, country, and rock and roll. I am only interested in the rock and roll and country palettes because I feel the cat eyes thing has been over done and all the shades in that palette I have something too similar. Your probably saying but The country palette looks so similar to other things as well. I know that but it's that dark wine shade and that purple pulling me in for that one.

What pulls me into the rock and roll palette are the jewel toned shadows. They are absolutely gorgeous. Absolutely absolutley gorgeous. I can't wait to go in store and swatch those babies! 

I plan on picking up one of these palettes in the next few weeks, I am leaning toward rock and roll but country has some beautiful shades, we will just see when I swatch them.

Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed!

First Impressions: Boo-Boo Coverup

Hiya Everyone!
Posting today about a product I recieved in the mail to try out and review. Saying that, I just want to state these are all my own opinions and I am not being paid to say anything. 

This post is more a first impressions than anything but I recieved this in the mail and I am always up for trying a good concealer, especially when it claims to heal and conceal at the same time.


What I'm talking about is Boo-Boo Coverup! It comes in a squeeze tube as you can see above and you only need a little bit. I used this on one of my face demons today, you know those little annoying pimples that come up randomly and won't go away! Well I used this today on my face and it didn't wear off throughout the day, it's a thick concealer and it was like the spot wasn't even there. This gets 5 stars in the concealing department! 

I have mine in the shade light and usually I am a light-medium shade person in concealers. But this light shade it darker than your normal everyday light concealer. If your pale this wouldn't work for you, it would be too dark. This only comes in three shades I believe, light, medium, and dark. 

As for the healing claims, I put this on this morning and when I took my makeup off tonight I had noticed the face demon in question had reduced in size. So I'm not completely sold on the healing part but I think it did make a difference from my normal concealer.

This is a bit more expensive than your drugstore concealers. This is more in the sephora/high end price range but in my opinion it's worth it. It doesn't crease or fade throughout the day, it's not cakey, it's not greasy, it conceals. I like this concealer, so far it gets an A+ from me!

Wet N' Wild Balm Stain Crayon Review

Hiya Beautiful Peoples of the internet!
Today I'm sharing my thoughts on the Wet N' Wild Balm Stain Crayons with you!

I purchased mine at Walgreens in the shade, A Stiff Pink. I was expecting these to be not very pigmented and horrible but Wet N' Wild continues to surprise me! This balm stain is SO pigmented. I just throw this on my lips and I'm good to go. The color is most vibrant when you first put it on but that's like with any lip stain. The stain itself does stain your lips all day and doesn't come off when you eat or drink.

I believe these retail for around 2-3 dollars. When I purchased mine they were on sale for 2.00 and there was 1.00 off peel coupons! So mine ended up being only 1.00, quite a steal. If your looking for an inexpensive lip stain that will stay on your lips all day I highly recommend these!

Too Faced Summer Eyes Palette First Impressions

Hiya Everyone! 
I've been meaning to sit down and write this post for a couple of months now. I purchased the Too Faced Summer Eyes palette online without even swatching it. I had heard many great things about Too Faced shadows even though I only own a few Too Faced Items I went ahead and purchased it anyway, sight unswatched.


When I first opened it I immediately loved the colors. Chocolate Sun and Cocoa Beach are my favorites because they're so wearable, but Peach Fuzz and mermaid are close seconds.

I love the quote at the top because secrets out, I'm a mermaid! 

All jokes aside this is a gorgeous palette. If your looking for the perfect summer palette, I highly recommend this.


I mean look at that! How can you not fall in love with that packaging as well as the shadows. A+++ Too Faced!

Lorac Rockin Red Hot Lip Gloss Minis

Hiya!
 
I'm going to talk today about the Lorac Rockin' Red Lip Gloss Minis Set. This set is available from Sephora, Ulta, and Amazon for 20.00 for the holiday season. The full size set is available for 27.00.
 
In the set you receive 6 mini lip glosses which I have swatched below with their names. All of these glosses smell like candy and frosting which is a plus and they are just the right amount of sticky! You receive a red gloss, some pink glosses, and a nude gloss in the set. I think this set would be suitable for anyone because the colors are so versatile and you get 6 colors to try out without spending a ton of money.

 
Swatched from top to bottom the names are Encore, Solo, Tour, Groupie, Electric, and Amp.
My personal favorites are Solo and Groupie. I think these glosses would be flattering on most skin tones because they are sheer except Groupie. Groupie is an opaque pink lip gloss. It looks gorgeous on!
 
This set is a great value if you are looking to try a lot of glosses at once and the glosses are high end amazing glosses!
 
I had never tried anything from Lorac before these and these made me want to try more glosses and some eyeshadows. I'm looking at the Lorac Pro Palette, anyone have this? Comment Below!

Stila Countless Color Pigment

Hiya Everyone!
 Sorry I have been gone so long but forget about the excuses, I am back and better than ever!

Today I want to share my opinions on the Stila Countless Color Pigment in Center Stage with you.
I purchased one of these in Tie Dye at Sephora in Nashville, TN while on vacation there for 22.00 and when I seen this on Amazon for around 10.00 I snatched it up! These are so pigmented and smooth.


I love the look of these and that's what initially made me buy the first one even though I haven't heard many people talk about them. To me they just look like rainbow unicorn makeup! The one pictured above is the Stila Countless Color Pigment in Center Stage.

Here are all four colors swatched on the back of my hand, from left to right is the Pink(very pigmented), Orange(more of a peachy pink), Purple(so bright), and Blue (extremely pretty!)

I highly recommend this eye shadow if you are looking for long lasting shadows that give that perfect pop of color. From the two Countless Color Pigments I have, I have concluded that the colors in the line are pigmented and smooth.

When I put these on my eyes without a primer they don't crease or smear and they blend so well, its like effortless blending. With a primer the colors are even more vibrant and amazing.

You can purchase these from Stila and Sephora. I found this one of Amazon at a discounted price. I will be looking for more of them in the line but Center Stage is my favorite out of the two I have. If you'd like swatches of Tie Dye just ask and I would be happy to post them for you. I have so many ideas for posts coming up and some exciting collaborations are in the works. Also Halloween tutorials might come in to play! Stay Tuned for more!
