Ulta Beauty Lip Liner Pencil Review (Bittersweet)

Hey guys!! Tonight I am reviewing a Ulta Lip liner. This one is in Bittersweet. I really don't own lip liners. I probably should but I never feel the need to use them. I did however decide to try this because it does kinda go with some of my lipstick colors. It goes on very easily and its very pigmented. It actually outlasts my lipstick and stays on all day long. I do find the line can be a bit harsh because it is so pigmented but a little blending and the right matching color fixes that. So will I buy more lip liners? Eh, but it is fun to test new things so I do like having a few.

Zoella Colourpop Pressed Blush and Highlighter Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the blush and highlighter from the Zoella Brunch Date Collection from Colourpop. I really quite like these, starting with the blush: I really appreciate that the blush is very buildable. It does not come off as too much color at once so I can use as much as I want to get the right color. I typically do not like pinky blushes because my cheeks flush so red already, so the fact it comes off so lightly is a big deal to me. As for the highlighter, you all know I LOVE highlighters, I have far far too many and will use way too much, and I love this one. It is very pigmented in a good way, it has some pinky undertones to it but is also very warm and will work amazingly in the summer for bronzey looks. A couple swipes is perfect for a normal day (ok, ok.... one swipe..one swipe is plenty..) but a few would be awesome if you just want to glow! I would totally recommend these for a sweet or sexy spring or summer look, they last

Ulta Beauty Mattifying Face Primer Review

Hey guys!! Tonight I am reviewing the Ulta Mattifying Face Primer. This has a very greasy feeling formula, it reminds me of the  Gimme Good Face  primer I loved. It doesn't make my skin look greasy and dries down really fast. It blends in nicely and a little goes along way. I do think it helps my foundation last a bit, but the foundation I am currently using does pretty well on its own as well. I think it will help more in the summer as that's when I have more issues due to the heat. I don't really think this makes it anymore matte though, it looks about the same to me. If you need a cheaper primer option I do like this.

Zoella Colourpop Lip Sets Review

Hey guys!! Today I am gonna review the Zoella Brunch date lip combo's from Colourpop. Give us the Gloss (Bossy and Self Love Club Combo) Collection: The colors in this set compliment each other very well and look great on. They have great staying power, until you eat. Now what I ate with this on was admittedly greasy, but this not only ended up coming mostly off the lips (other than the liner) but got on my chin and stuff as well. So while this is gorgeous, you do need to be mindful of what you will be eating and be aware you will need to touch it up after meals. Other than that I quite like it though.  What Happens At Brunch (Oh Snap and @Me Combo) Collection: This is a nude pink color.  These really compliment each other and Zoe did a great job pairing colors. The pencil is smooth and glides on and the matte lip goes on very easily and can be built up. You have to apply ALOT before it gets cakey. It lasts most of the day, the pencil lasts all day and

Colorpop Dream St. Eyeshadow Pallette Review (w/ Swatches)

Hey guys!! Today I am going to review the Colourpop Dream St. Eyeshadow Pallette. I have been LOVING this, the colors are beautiful and they last almost all day, only slightly creasing with the darker colors. These are also very pigmented which is great! (Left to right: Shooting Star, Sweet Dreams, Kaleidoscope, Magical, Water Bearer,  Elfish, Star Dust, Potion, Moony, Twinkle, Spark, Mermaid Bay) Twinkle: This is good for a girly look or a date night kinda look. You could also use elfish to darken it up for a more sexy look. Spark: This is a good blend out shade to add depth, I haven't used it on my lid because it is very bright and a little much for everyday looks, but it blends great and works nice for like a sunset vibe kinda look. Mermaid Bay: This one doesn't come off as pigmented or true to color as I would like. It is very pretty but I usually need to put it over water bearer to achieve the color and brightness I want. Star Dust:

IT Cosmetics CC+ Cream Review

Hey guys! Today I am going to review the It Cosmetics CC+ Cream. I really do like this, it is very full coverage though so for that reason and the fact I accidentally got a shade too dark (oops, thought I was slightly tanner but nope) I only use half a pump at a time. Half a pump however is still plenty of coverage. I find I prefer to use a wet sponge to apply this just to tone it down a bit and make it more dewy. I got this as more of a summer foundation so I feel like it looks really nice dewy for summer looks. It seems to protect my skin from the sun as well as any other spf makeup I have used. To be honest I almost never have my face burned if I have on makeup though. Not sure if this would last great in the water, it might last very briefly, but you would need to reapply it occasionally to keep the sun protection.  I definately think this could get cakey if not used sparingly so keep that in mind. I really do like this though and will totally b

Artisan Bath Fizzy's Fizz and Bubble Review

Buttercream: This made my skin feel super super soft and smooth, and also left a shimmer on my skin. It also however dyed my bath hot pink in many places, but it did come off pretty easy with a magic eraser lol Sandalwood Vanilla: This one smells very very good, I really like it, it smells kinda fresh but also vanilla'y. It did NOT dye my tub which is awesome. It did turn the water a weird green color but that isn't a big deal because it smelled great and my skin felt super soft and smooth after. Rose Water: This one smelled really really good. Very floral but not in like a funeral home way if that makes sense? It did NOT dye my tub which is great, I was very worried with it still being in the pinky red family like the first one. It made my skin feel super soft which I love about these. I think these are a great brand of bath fizzers, I would totally use these again! ^_^

Luna Cosmetics Eyeshadow Review

Hey Guys!! Tonight I am reviewing Luna Cosmetics Eyeshadow. This is very pretty, it is good for more natural looks as well as glamour looks depending on how you apply it and what else you use. Like more neutral tones for natural and more eyeliner and stuff for glamour. It has good lasting power as well. It is decently pigmented and a very pretty color. I would definately recommend this. It would also work nicely as a highlight shade.
