March Ipsy

Hope you all having a happy hump day. I know april is here and I am a little late on this review. I usually receive my Ipsy after the 14th of each month, so it gives me a limited amount of time to try everything. Most of the items I will set aside ands use later on. March's Ipsy was great. I loved almost everything I received.  It has gotten better and better for me every month. Heres what I recieved for the month of march: Nyx liquede suede lipstick I recieved the color kitten heels which is a beautiful bright red. I already owned two other colors from this line and have found them to work amazing. They are not drying on the lips. They do transfer and fade quickly but they are beautiful colors and very comfortable on the lips. This color will go with just about anything. These lipsticks can also be found at target and are around $8. For the amount you receive in the tube. It is a great buy. Pixi by petra blush/highlight duo T...

March favorites

Hey beauties, happy friday. This month has gone by so quick and online class has kept me busy. I promise I will have my ipsy and lipmonthly up as soon as possible. So I will begin with all these awesome goodies I have discovered and loved this month.   Milan's Conceal and Perfect 2 in 1 Concealer and Foundation After saying goodbye to Mac foundation I have been on the lookout for some full coverage foundations that will  not break me out and hide my acne scars. I had heard such great reviews I decided to go out and buy it. I am so glad I did. This bottle is average size and comes with a pump. Yay! Always a big plus when you aren't struggling to get it on your brush. I picked mines up at cvs for $10. The shade range is very limited. I believe there are 14 colors. The color I chose was 02 neutral. I believe this color will be great for summer when I am outdoors more often but for now it was a bit darker so I wear it mixed with my Covergirl. ...

Colourpops new #ultrasatinlip

Hey loves happy Sunday. So I got around to purchasing three of the new ultra satin lip by colourpop. I told myself I would not get anything but I watched a couple of youtube videos and had to give in. As always you will notice I like to pick up two or three of each new product because you never know if product consistency differs with colors. And yup I was right on this one. First of all the range of colors they put out is gorgeous and It was a very hard choice deciding what color to choose. I went with the colors I was most likely to wear. Fricknfrack, prim, and tansy.            Frick n frack is a dark mauve. It sure did fool me. I was expecting a lighter color from the look of the tube shade and it applied darker. This one tended to migrate to the corners of my lips. Disclaimer: they all transfer very easily and some tend to shift all over the place. My teeth, outer corner of lips, fingers, and face if your not careful. I had to constantl...

Bite beauty the amuse bouche

Hey loves Happy friday!!! . We made it to the the weekend. Yay! So last month was amazing. I recieved three influenster boxes with new goodies to try out. If you havent heard about influenster just check out my post about the maybelline foundation for details.  This was my third box and the one I was most excited about. Bite beauty's new the amuse bouche collection. I was extremly happy when I recieved my email from influenster that I was recieving these free for review and test purposes. Not only one but three colors from the new collection. These are now out in stores at sephora. They retail for $26 each. I recieved the shades pepper, beetroot, and gazpacho.     Pepper is a mauve, beetroot looks like a plum and gazpacho a brigh, bright red. First off these have a very strong scent.  For scent lovers you will be excited to know they have a citrus scent. Sort of like an orange or mandarine. So yummy I really just want to pop one open and take a bite. The p...

St. Ives lotion and body wash review

A big thankyou to influenster for sending me St. Ives oatmel body wash and lotion. I have tried st. Ives before and I am a huge fan of their facewashes especially the apricot one. It deeply exfoliates my face. The products I recieved from influenster were the oatmeal body scrub and oatmeal lotion. First off the body scrub is for sensitive skin. Its has light beads and a light smell. I like it but I would have preferably chosen something with bigger beads to really give me that effective clean. For someone who likes a gentle wash this is perfect. Its suds up and does not have a strong smell.   As for the lotion I wasn't impressed. It is a light formula as well but it did not help moisturize my skin. It absorbed quickly and I eventually ended up with dry skin again throughout the day. It is not oily but I would have expected it to help with the dry skin. Again this one has a very faint smell. And It is a lot of product for a very good price.  Overall the bo...

Jordana matte lip

Matte lips are in and everyone is jumping aboard. This week I was able to find Jordanas new creme matte lips at walgreens. Its my first ever jordana product. I have heard nothing but great things about their products. They are affordable and work nicely. These matte lips were 4.99 each at walgreens. I also was told you can find them at kmart for 2.99 but if you dont have a kmart you will have to go for the 4.99 at walgreens. Anyways for the review I purchased tiramisu (a terra cotta color) and rasberry tart (a fuscia). These applied very nicely. Dried under a minute. They were a bit drying on the lips and just a tad bit sticky. They lasted a good 5 hrs without eating which was great. Their was little to no transfer and did not leave a stain after. Im very pleased with them. Someone who does not like a drying matte lip should probably steer away. They also had a fragrance very similar to milani's lipsticks but it dissapeared after drying. Overall great product. Good job jord...
