MAC Matte Lipstick Review (Lingering Kiss)

Today I decided to do a review on a MAC lipstick I bought about a month ago. I really like MAC products and since I was a given a Belk gift card when I graduated in May I thought I would take advantage of it and purchase my first MAC lipstick.

After careful consideration I decided to take a risk and buy the color 'Lingering Kiss'.

Now let me say first, I'm in LOVE with the color, however, I'm not used to using a Matte lipstick and therefor didn't realize that matte lipsticks are much harder to work with and much less forgiving. The results is that I can't seem to get this to work for me as of yet. When i try it, it only goes on the outer part of my lips, I can't seem to get it to cover them fully.

Although I don't think this looks too horrible I don't like to wear it like this so I really haven't been wearing it. If any of you guys have any tips for me on how to make this work I would LOVE to hear them because I really love this color and want to make it work for me.

So, would I buy this again? Until I figure out how to work with a Matte color I will not be repurchasing this. I did however already purchase another MAC lipstick that is NOT matte (review coming soon) and I love it! :)

The Drug Store Make Up Tag

1. What is your favorite drugstore makeup brand overall? That's a really hard questions because I use a variety of brands, but I'd have to say either Maybelline or Covergirl is my favorite. I'd probably have to go with Maybelline because I love their mascaras. 2. What are your favorite face, cheek and lip products? Hmm I think my favorite face product right now is probably the Maybelline Fit Me Foundation. I really don't have a favorite cheek product because I don't use blush. My fav lip product right now is probably the Hard Candy Fierce Effects Lip Gloss in Make Me Blush. 3.Least favourite product? There are not many products I dislike but I'm not a huge fan of the Maybelline Super Stay 14th lipsticks. I find it drying. 4.What is your best makeup bargain? Basically any ELF product is an amazing deal. 5.What is your favourite underdog product? (something you love that often gets overlooked) I'm not really sure I have a favorite that gets ...

Anxiety Sucks

Hey guys!! I know this is my traditional type of post, but I really have been having trouble with this lately and I just needed somewhere to vent. Anxiety really really sucks you guys. I've always been the kind of person who will get nervous about new experiences, I've never liked being in front of people on stage or for presentations. Even small groups would scare me, but I've never experienced anxiety quite like this. Ever since December my anxiety has been far worse than its ever been. I was on my way to college one morning like usual, listening to music, singing along and all of a sudden my heart started racing, I was having trouble breathing, my hands were tingling, I got a headache, and felt dizzy. Against my better judgment I continued to drive to school and after about 30 minutes of class realized I couldn't handle it. I was afraid to try and drive since I was dizzy so I ended up having to call my parents to come pick me up. At the time...

Loreal True Match Foundation Review

I've had this for a few months now so I decided it was time to do a review. I have the color Alabaster which is a cool shade. It actually matches my skin tone perfectly so that's a really big plus. This lasts all day long, but on me it doesn't really help all that much with my skin getting oily/shiny looking. I actually think this might make my skin look MORE shiny because it has a bit of a dewy finish (which is great if your skin isn't already oily). That being said I do like this, but I'm not sure I'll repurchase it because of the shine factor but I think if you have normal or dry skin then this would be something good to try and they have plenty of shades so it's a good chance you'll be able to find your skin tone.
