Milani Bella Eyes Gel Powder Eyeshadows




Happy Friday Luvs!!!! I hope you had a great week and looking forward to this weekend. Today I wanted to share with you guys these beautiful Milani Bella Eyes Gel Eyeshadows. Let me tell you these shadows are THE BOMB!!!
  Milani created 30 gorgeous shades with a new gel powder formula. It’s gel-like in that it is super smooth and glides onto the skin with just one strokes, but it looks like a powder and feels soft and smooth. You can use them wet or dry and it comes in three finishes: satin matte, shimmer or iridescent metallic.
The color line includes Nudes & Browns, Smoky & Sky, Purples & Greens, Metallics and Brights & Lights. I own 10 out of the 30 shades and wanted to share with you guys the ones that I own. I picked these up at my local Walgreens for $3.49, but they can be found at any local drugstore.



1. Bella Rouge is an intense pink with a metallic finish.



2. Bella Teal is a beautiful teal green with a metallic finish.



3. Bella Taupe is a deep cool taupe with a matte ( Love this color)



4. Bella Violet is a light violet with a shimmer finish.



5. Bella Navy is a dark blue with a satin finish ( LOOOOVE this color too).



6. Bella Purple is a beautiful deep purple with a satin matte finish.



7.  Bella Emerald is a gorgeous deep green with a satin finish ( another favorite).



8. Bella Bronze is a beautiful deep bronze with a metallic finish ( another favorite).



9. Bella Cappuccino is a light warm brown with a satin finish.



10. Bella Chiffon  is a light yellow/gold with a satin finish. Bella Chiffon can also be used as a highlighter...beautiful color.

I really LOVE these eyeshadows, they don't appear as smooth and pigmented but once you swatch those bad boys you will fall in love. They are absolutely amazing and the fact that they are only $3.49 is inexpensive makes them even better. If you guys try these out please let me know, which ones are your favorite. Talk to you guys in the next post.

XOXO

Favorite Fall Lippies


HAPPY HUMP DAY MY BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE!! I hope you guys are having a  AWESOME week so far and are looking forward to this weekend. So today I wanted to come and show you guys my FAVORITE lippies for the fall/winter. These lipsticks are currently in heavy rotation for me, and I absolutely love them.
 1. MAC Viva Glam Rihanna 2 - This lipstick is a metallic mauve color with a frost finish. This color reminds me so much of the brownish colors that were worn back in the 90's. I absolutely love it. This lipstick is $16.00 at your local MAC store.




 2. MAC Smoked Purple-This is a beautiful deep plum color with the slight tint of red. When paired with MAC nightmoth liner its the bomb.com! Smoked purple is a matte lipstick and not drying at all. The only thing I don't like about this lipstick is that it doesn't last long, so you have to keep reapplying. Smoked Purple is $16.00 at your local MAC store.

3. KAT VON D Studded Kiss Lipstick Poe- Poe is one of my favorite lipsticks from the Studded Kiss collection. Poe is a beautiful navy shimmer color that's looks absolutely beautiful on the lips. I did find it to be a little patchy when applying it, so you want to make sure that you exfoliate and moisturize your lips before applying. You can find the Studded Kiss collection at your local Sephora for $21.00

 


3. KAT VON D Studded Kiss Lipstick Homegirl- I would describe Homegirl as a deep burgundy or blackberry color. I usually pair it with night moth and it looks amazing. It can be a little patchy as well so you want to make sure you moisturize your lips. It is a matte lipstick and long wearing.  You can find Homegirl at your local Sephora for $21.00





4. Wet N' Wild Vamp It Up- This is hands down my FAVORITE deep purple lipstick. Vamp It Up is apart of the Mega-last collection  from WNW. This color is absolutely stunning on the lips and dries to a beautiful matte. WNW can be found at your local drug store and the lipsticks range from $1.99-$2.99


5. Wet N Wild Mochalicious- This is one of my favorite nude/brown lipstick, it goes on very smooth and very long wearing. Mochalicious is apart of the Mega-last collection from WNW. I normally pair this lipstick with a brown lip liner and it looks amazing. You can find this lipstick at your local drugstore and it retails for  $1.99-$2.99.



6. Milani Cabert Blend- Cabert Blend is a beautiful burgundy color, its similar to Homegirl by Kat Von D, but doesn't dry to a matte finish. It goes on very smooth and not patchy at all. I often lean more to this than Homegirl because its not patchy at all and if I want the matte look, I just dab a little translucent powder on my lips and wah-lah its matte.  You can find Cabert Blend along with other Milani products at your local drug store. This lipstick retails for $5.99



Those are my top pics, I hope you guys try some of them out and let me know what you think. Until next time, talk to you guys in my next post.

XOXO

Nyx Soft Matte Lip Cream

 
HAPPY FRIDAY LUVS!!!!!! I hope that you guys had a FABOLOUS week and are looking forward to a AWESOME weekend. Today's post is dedicated to these AH-MAZING Nyx Soft Matte Lip Creams. I did a post earlier this week on the Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks (if you haven't read it be sure to check it out) so I wanted to showcase an alternative option just incase you didn't want to spend $19.00 for one lipstick.

 
The Nyx Soft Matte Lip Creams are THEBOMB.COM!! They are absolutely amazing. They retail at Ulta for $5.99 and they are $6.00 on the Nyx website. The lip creams go on amazing , they are very soft, silky, highly pigmented, and they dry to a matte finish. The are very moisturizing to the lips, so you don't have to worry about that dry patch feeling. The staying power is awesome as well, they last a very long time. They come in 17 different shades, I will list the names of the shades that I have below. I really love all of the colors that I chose, so there's not one that I dislike.

 
1. Morocco-Matte Coral Orange
 
 
2. Istanbul-Clean Pink

 
3. Monte Carlo-Deep Cranberry Red

 
4. Copenhagen-Matte Rich Plum (Fall Favorite)

 
5. Prague-Matte Merlot
 
Ulta is having a 40% on all NYX products so instead of paying $5.99 for these lip creams you can get them for $3.59 which is a fantastic deal for these amazing lipsticks. Be sure to check them out and let me know what you think. I'm in love with them and I will definitely be wearing these lip creams this fall/winter. Talk to you guys in my next post, have a safe and enjoyable weekend.
 
XOXO

Kat Von D Everlasting Love Liquid Lipstick

 
Happy Tuesday Guys!!! I hope you guys are having a GREAT day so far. So I'm back with a review  for you guys. Today I'm featuring these amazing liquid lipsticks from Kat Von D. These liquid lipsticks are THEBOMB.COM...lol! I absolutely LOVE them and the fact that they pretty much stay put all day is amazing!!!
 
 
In the above picture I provided swatches for the 4 colors that I currently own from the collection. The liquid lipsticks are sold at Sephora and can be purchased online as well for $19.00. The liquid lipsticks are long wearing, full coverage that dry to a matte finish. They are infused with vitamin A, C, and E which provided hydration to the lips. The lipsticks are not drying at all which you sometimes find with some matte lipsticks. There are 12 different shades so if you can't find the one you're looking for in store be sure to check online. Below you will find the colors of the lipsticks that I currently own and I will list them according to my favorite.
 
 
1. L.U.V.- (Rich Violet) This by far is my favorite out of all of the liquid lipsticks that I own. Every time I wear it I get tons of compliments on it and everyone wants to know where I purchased it. The color is absolutely gorgeous.

 
2. Lolita (Dusty Rose)- Lolita is a very pretty nude and looks great on all skin tones. I was in search for a nice matte liquid lipstick and I found this one and fell in love.

 
3. A-Go-Go (Bright Orange-Red)-I wore this color a lot over the summer and its gorgeous. It can be very bright at first but paired with the perfect lip liner you can tone it down to your liking.

 
4. Back Stage Bambi ( Vivid Hot Pink)- Back Stage Bambi is a very bight hot pink lipstick that I thought I would love at first, but I ended up not liking it that much. It can go on a little patchy so I found myself having to layer it a little more than the others. You can also tone this one down as well with your choice of lip liner.
 
So I hope you guys enjoyed this review on the Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks and hopefully you guys will go out and purchase some for yourselves.  Talk to you guys in my next post.
 
XOXO
