Lipstick, (clear) Lip Gloss & Lip Gloss Sets Collection

Hey Guys,

 

Here is my lipstick and lip gloss without pigment collection. Also I have included a couple of mini lip gloss sets as well. I also included swatch pictures. I hope you enjoy!

 

This is my lipstick collection. It is very small because I don't wear lipstick all that much. I have a couple nudes and a pink and then a red that I actually only wore once on Halloween. I am thinking about adding a couple more nudes though because there are a few that I would like to try.

 

 

Maybelline Colorsensational - Maple Kiss

Ulta Super Shiny Lip Butter - Vienna

E.L.F. Mineral Lipstick - Natural Nymph

E.L.F. Lipstick - Flirtatious

Wet N Wild Megalast - Red My Mind

 

These are my lip glosses that are clear with no pigmentation at all. I love these for over my lipstick or for when I just want a shine.

 

 

Wet N Wild Megasticks - Cotton Candy

Wet N Wild Megasticks - Seedless Watermelon

E.L.F. Soothing Lip Balm - Blackberry Cream

E.L.F. Soothing Lip Balm - Vanilla Cream

E.L.F. Soothing Lip Balm - Strawberry Cream

Ulta Butter Balm - Belle

Sephora - Fresh Gloss

 

These are the lip gloss mini sets that I have.

 

The first two sets are from Essence. They each have three mini glosses in the set and the packaging has to do with a city.

 

This is the San Francisco set...

 

 

This is the Paris set...

 

 

This is a set called The Lip Glossary that I got from Ulta. It had 20 mini glosses in the set I believe. Some of them were ruined a little and others have shimmer so I put them up for a giveaway. I never opened them because I knew I would never wear them. These are the ones that I liked and kept for my collection.

 

 

So this Blog concludes my Lippies collection. I hope you enjoyed it and come back to check out the rest of my makeup collection. Thanks for reading :)

January Favorites!

Hey Everyone here's my January Favorites...

 

 

I have been loving the First Aid Beauty lip therapy. It makes my lips so hydrated and smooth and lasts for quite a while. This is the best product that I have used on dry winter lips in a long time. I have also been using the Maybelline Colossal Volum' Express Cat Eyes mascara. I got it in black and I have really been enjoying it. This mascara flares my eyelashes out at the ends and makes them long and dark and I have not had any problems with clumping which I love. Another product that I have been using every night is the Simple Eye Makeup Remover Pads. I love Simple products because they are so easy on my sensitive skin.

 

 

The two nail polishes that I used the most in the month of January were Pixie by Urban Outfitters. It's a pale blue and so pretty. I have also bought China Glaze polishes for the first time so I have been trying those out. The one that I love is Too Yacht To Handle. It's a mint green and I love the way it looks when I put my top coat on. Speaking of, my favorite top coat has been Essie Matte About You. It makes even the shiniest polishes matte and I have just been loving that effect all month long. I have been using a lot of spring polishes lately because I am so over winter and the cold that I just can't wait until spring!

 

 

A few kind of random products that I have been loving are the Boscia black mask. I only used it toward the end of January but my face felt so smooth and clean and exfoliated after I used it that I already can tell that it will be a favorite of mine for a long time. I have been using the E.L.F. makeup remover pen for the past couple months and I love it. I read some reviews before buying it that people got ones that were dried up or it didn't work for them but I have had no problem with mine. It takes off my waterproof mascara when I make mistakes and I love it. I have also been using the Enreign Cuticle Oil. I got it from my local Dollar Tree so I wasn't really expecting much to be honest but it smells amazing and I have noticed a change in my cuticles.

 

 

The two fragrances that I used for the month of January was Taylor by Taylor Swift and Bath & Body Works Forever Red. I got Taylor for Christmas and I just love the scent. It's kind of a sweet but mature scent and it lasts all day long. I have used the Forever Red perfume in the past and loved it but then stopped using it in favor of something else but using Taylor for some reason made me want to go back to Forever Red as well. I am a big Taylor Swift fan and the scent made me think of her because I believe it came out around the time that her album Red came out, or maybe that's just when I picked it up.

 

Other Favorites...

 

I have been loving American Horror Story. I had a marathon on Netflix when I was bored and I fell in love with it. I really wish that I had watched it from the beginning when it was on T.V. The fourth season just ended so I am going to have to find it somewhere online to watch it. If anyone has any good sites to watch T.V. shows for free let me know!

Pretty Little Liars also came back on in January and I have been watching that as well. I love that show for some reason and I can't get enough of it.

 

So that's all for my new favorites. I am still loving all of the products from my December Blog post as well.

 

Thanks for reading :) As always I hope you enjoyed it and leave any ideas or suggestions for further Blog posts....

Lip Care Collection

Today's Blog post is the start of a series of Blogs focusing on my makeup collection. I have decided to do it within multiple Blog posts because one post would ne way too long. I do not by any means have a huge makeup collection but I do have more than just a makeup bag full. The first part of the seires is going to focus on what I am going to call Lip Care. This includes EOS, Baby Lips, Burt's Bees, Nivea, Chapstick, Essence Kiss, Care, Love Balm, as well as some odds and ends.

 

This is my EOS collection. I am going to list the flavors from left to right, top to bottom. Blueberry Acai, Stawberry Sorbet, Summer Fruit, Honeysuckle Honeydew, Strawberry Kiwi, Pomegranate Raspberry, Lemon Drop, Sweet Mint, Orange Blossom & Pink Grapefruit. I do like these lip balms. I think they smell so good and in my opinion they are moisturizing for a little while but they don't last that long on my lips. I keep one in my purse to use when I need some moisture but overall I don't tend to reach for these all the time.

 

 

These are the four original Maybelline Baby Lips that I have. Cherry Me, Peach Kiss, Quenched & Pink Punch. I love the original Baby Lips. they smell good, they are moisturizing and if you want a little color without wearing lipstick or a tinted lip gloss, these are the way to go.

 

 

These are two of the Baby Lips from the Electro collection. Strike A Rose & Oh Orange. These ones in my opinion have more of a tint thank the original ones and come in more vibrant colors but they are still moisturizing and hydrate your lips just as the origingals do.

 

 

These are two of the Baby Lips from the Crystal collection. Pink Quartz & Crystal Kiss. These lip balms have a shimmer to them. I don't like these as much as the others because of the shimmer but It's subtle and not in your face shimmer so I think they are good for wearing something different even if you are not that fond of shimmer.

 

I will also mention that Baby Lips also has a medicated collection but I do not own any right now.

 

 

This is a set of Essence lip balms called Kiss, Care, Love. I have Fruit Crush, Fruit Fruit Fruity & Carribean Sunrise. I think these are a dupe for the Maybelline Baby Lips. Well I am not positive that they are suppose to be true dupes but I think that these are a good alternative and they are a little bit cheaper. I got these on the Ulta website for I believe $1.99 and the Baby Lips can be almost $4 depending on where you get them. They are moisturizing and hydrating and have a tiny bit of color.

 

 

I also have two Nivea products. I have the A Kiss of Cherry lip balm and the Raspberry Rose Kiss lip butter. The lip balm gives you a pinkish tint to your lips while hydrating. The lip butter is a thicker consistency and makes your lips feel smooth and moisturized.

 

.

 

This is my chapstick collection. Fruit Punch, Cherry, Candy Cane & Pumpkin Pie. At the end is a Ulta lip balm in Sweet that I included here because the tubes are the same. The chapsticks are good for chapped lips obviously and especially in the winter time when your lips get more dry than usual. They come in all kinds of flavors and have special flavors around the holidays.

 

 

I love the Burt's Bees collection. I have only tried lip care but I am very interested in trying some of the other products as well. If anyone has tried any Burt's Bees products, let me know which ones and how you like them. I use these mostly on the occasions that I get a cold sore. I can usually feel one coming on and as soon as I do, I put this stuff on and it's gone in about three days. I swear by this stuff and would recommend it to everyone.

 

 

This is the last of my lip care. I have a Wet N Wild Raspberry lip balm. This I got because it was cheap at the drug store but I honestly wouldn't buy anymore. It doesnt smell that good and it tastes horrible. I know that it's not to eat but I have a habit of licking my lips alot and this just is not good at all. It's also a pretty big stick. The next thing is the Absolute New York You're The Balm lip balm in Grape. This reminds me a little of the Nivea lip butter but not as thick. It's very moisturizing and has a good smell. The last two things are what I consider lip treatments. The first is Vaseline Lip Therapy in the Original scent. This is good for dry and chapped lips. Its heavy and moisturizing and it just works great. I like the lip therapy rather than the plain vaseline because the lip therapy doesn't have the horrible smell and taste, it acts more like a lip balm. The last thing is a newer product in my collection but it has quickly became one of my favorites. It's the First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Lip Therapy. I have very dry lips especially in the winter time and this stuff works great. I put it on and an hour later I can still feel it on my lips. The scent is good and it's so moisturizing. I highly recommend this product.

 

So that's my lip care collection. I hope you liked it and as always feel free to share with me your favorite lip care products as well. Thanks for reading :) Until next time....

I Love Nail Polish Tag!

What's Up Guys!

I wanted to do something different for today's Blog so I went on YouTube to get some ideas and found the I Love Nail Polish Tag videos. I wrote the questions down and made my choices and here they are...

Favorite Base Coat:     ORLY Bonder

This is a rubberized base coat. I've been using it for over a month and I love it. It makes my nail polish stay on longer and chip less than it did with other base coats.

Favorite Top Coat:     Essie Matte About You

I just recently bought this top coat from Ulta and I have only used it once but I am already in love with it. It's matte and makes your nail polish matte. I used a color that was kind of on the bright side and when I put this top coat on it instantly matified it and make it a more pale version of the color. This is definitely a good top coat of you are not in the mood for shiny polishes.

Top 3 Brands:     Revlon, NYC, Essie

I have quite a few brands of nail polish and I love them all but these three are the ones that I tend to reach for the most. They are also the ones that seem to last the longest on my nails as well.

Favorite Neutral Nail Polish:     Essie Cocktails & Coconuts

I love this nude polish. It's not a brown but it's not a cream, it's the perfect mixture of both. I love to wear this polish during any season it doesnt matter to me.

Pink Or Red:     Pink

I chose pink just because there are so many different shades of pink. There's light, pastel, medium, dark, bright, neon. There is just more to choose from but I do love my reds as well.

Glitter Or Matte:     Matte

I chose matte because I have more matte polishes than glitter but I do like glitter as well. I prefer to wear glitter as either an accent nail or on my toes mostly.

Go To Nail Polish At The Moment:     China Glaze

I just recieved my first China Glaze polishes so I am trying them out to see how I like them.

What's On Your Nails Now:     China Glaze Too Yacht To Handle

This is a really pretty bright minty green. I have the Essie Matte About You top coat on over it and it made it a pale mette mint green. It's so pretty on the nails. So far I am loving this polish as well as the top coat.

If You Had A Nail Polish Line, What Would It Be Called:     XOXO Lola

I am so bad at naming things but XOXO Lola is how I end all my Blog posts so I just chose that one. HAHA.

So that's my I Love Nail Polish Tag but actually it's an I Love Nail Polish Blog. Either way I hope you enjoyed it. Feel free to leave comments answering the questions as well or do a Blog yourself and let me know on Twitter, Instagram, or a comment on here so I can check it out. I'd love to see others choices.

Thanks for reading :)

ULTA Haul

Hey guys!
I made an online purchase on the Ulta wesbite a couple weeks ago because I had some gift cards from Christmas so I wanted to share what I picked out. I hope you all enjoy it.

 

I have been wanting to try China Glaze nail polish for a while now so when I saw that Ulta had this 6 piece travel sized road trip set I had to get it. I also saw the full size China Glaze bottle and fell in love with the color. I actually put the full size polish on my nails tonight. I haven't had it on long enough to give a full review but so far I am really liking the formula and the color is gorgeous.

 

The colors are listed left to right...

Boho Blues which is a bluish purple color.

Trip Of A Lime Time which is a lime green.

My Way Or The High Way which is a dark green bluish color. 

Dashboard Dreamer which is a light blue.

Oinking Out The Window which is a light pink maybe a salmon.

I brake For Colour which is a bright pink.

 

The full size bottle is called Too Yacht To Handle and it's a mint green color but with a matte top coat it kind of looks like a neon pale green.

 

 

I have been looking for a new top coat and found this Essie Matte About You top coat. I love essie nail polish so I thought that I would give this one a try. I also like that it is a matte finish because that is something that I have never tried before. I am also wearing this today and I really do love the effect that it gives on top of the nail polish. I might have found my new favorite top coat!!!

 

 

Of course I can't do shopping without buying some mascara. This time I bought two :) The first one is the Maybelline Great Lash Real Impact. Then other one is the Essence I love extreme volume. They are both in black. I love the Maybelline Great Lash mascara so I thought I would give this one a try. I have the Essence I love extreme crazy volume mascara so I wanted to buy that one to add to my collection. I can't wait to try them both.

 

 

I also did some shopping for a future giveaway and while I was looking for items I bought some of the same for myself. I got the travel size Ulta body wash in Pink Petals and Water Blossom. Both smell so amazing.

 

 

I initially was looking for a replacement Burt's Bees Lip Balm tin because I am almost out of the one that I have. I love Burt's Bees products. While I was shopping for that I came across The Absolute New York You're The Balm lip balm so I picked that up as well. I am keeping the Grape for myself and I put up the Green Apple one for the giveaway because I don't care for apple scents. So look for a giveaway coming soon...

 

 

I also got the free samples. I had chosen the skin care one but got sent these fragrances instead. I am going to give the Eternity mens cologne to my boyfriend and put the My NY DKNY perfume into the givaway stuff.

 

 

So that is my Ulta Haul. I hope you liked the products that I got and that they gave you some ideas of things to buy for yourselves as well. As always leave comments for me about products that you guys enjoy and think that I should try.

 

Thanks for reading :)
