Hello lovelies!!!
I'm so excited to finally be back. To be honest, ever since I moved back to Northern California, I haven't been motivated to make any videos nor blog. The move was a huge adjustment and even now I haven't completely unpacked all of my makeup goodies and what not due to lack of space at home :( However, I've been feeling motivated again lately since I've remembered how much I love makeup.
So today, we're going to talk about some of my all time favorite products that I've been using all of October as well as previous months.
Lip Products:
Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Soft Nude
Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Pastel Lilac
NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss in Natural (122)
Lancome Juicy Tube in Frozen Punch
(L to R: Soft Nude, Pastel Lilac, Natural, Frozen Punch)
Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Soft Nude is my all time favorite nude lipstick. This is one of my holy grail items and I don't know what I would do without this lipstick. It's the perfect shade of nude where it doesn't make you look too washed out and could be paired with essentially ANY lipgloss. The formula is not drying at all and it doesn't make my lips peel. What more do I need to say? TRY IT!!! :)
Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Pastel Lilac is one of my favorite lip glosses for many reasons. It looks amazing when paired with my Revlon Soft Nude and the formula is moisturizing. I personally hate any lipgloss that feels sticky. The scent is pleasantly subtle and have I mentioned that the color is gorgeous?! This is probably one of my all time favorite lip glosses. I have a back-up of a back-up of a back-up. Have you tried out any of the lip glosses from this line? Let me know what you think of them.
NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss in 122 Natural is an amazing lip gloss as well. I love the color of it paired with my soft nude lipstick or just worn alone. This is not sticky at all and smells delightful! :) It smells like one of my favorite candies from my childhood memories but I can't seem to put my finger on what it was exactly. The scent of it just brings me straight down memory lane. Have you guys tried this lip gloss out? If so, what does it smell like to you?
Lancome Juicy Tube in Frozen Punch is a beautiful milky baby pink that looks great once again paired with my soft nude lipstick. Have I mentioned that soft nude is my hg lipstick? The formula of this is amazing because it's moisturizing and smells amazing like candy. I'm usually really picky about the scent of my lipgloss. If the gloss smells ghastly, I would not wear the gloss no matter how gorgeous the color is. That alone is a deal breaker for me.
Eye Products:
Urban Decay Primer Potion in Eden
Revlon Precision Lash Adhesive
e.l.f. Liquid Liner
Wet n Wild H2O Proof Liquid Eyeliner
(L to R: UDPP in Sin, Revlon Lash Adhesive, e.l.f, Wet n Wild)
Urban Decay's Primer Potion in Sin is simply GORGEOUS!!! This is one of my favorite colors from Urban Decay's Naked palette. This primer performs the same way the original UDPP does, but with a gorgeous peachy champagne color. Whenever I'm in a pinch for time, I would just wear this color alone with liner over it. It just really brightens up the eyes and ensures that the liner doesn't budge. If you love UDPP and the color Sin...give this primer a try and I guarantee that you will love it too.
Revlon Precision Lash Adhesive is amazing. I love the packaging because instead of a squeeze tube like DUO lash glue...this one comes with a wand with a brush applicator, allowing for easy application to the lash band. This formula is much more watery than any latex based lash glue and dries clear. I used to use DUO lash glue but I think I'm allergic to the latex in it so I can't use it anymore. However, I find that this glue performs much better in terms of wear. After I apply my lashes, it doesn't budge all day. One time, I used this glue to apply lashes for my sister and she fell asleep wearing the lashes...she woke up the next morning with her lashes still completely intact! I believe that is the ultimate test right there...although I don't recommend sleeping with your makeup on.
e.l.f. liquid liner is a great liquid liner for just a buck. I don't think there is much more that I need to say about this liner. Only thing I don't like about this liner is the new packaging...I miss the felt tip wand :( I don't know how I feel about the new brush tip...but I'm still loving the formula. This is my favorite non-waterproof liquid liner.
I have been in search of the perfect waterproof liquid liner for a while and I think I may have finally found one! :) I have tried many waterproof liquid liners including Stila, Urban Decay, and Makeup Forever and all of those tend to get flaky by the end of the day. Recently, I decided to try the Wet n Wild H2O Proof Liquid Eyeliner and WOW....I was amazed at the staying power of this liquid liner. When they say that it's waterproof...they really mean it. I've been wearing it all of October and I find that it doesn't flake at all. My only complaint is that it takes forever to remove this eyeliner at night, but at the same time, that's what we're looking for in a waterproof liquid liner right? One that stays put all day and doesn't budge at all. If you are looking for an inexpensive waterproof liquid liner then definitely give this a try :)
This concludes my favorite beauty products from October. I will talk to you lovelies again soon :) Stay warm and dry!!! Until next time...
xoxo <3
