NEW! L.A. Colors Cosmetics High Shine Shea Butter Lipgloss Review | Updated with New Shades!


Hey Boos, Hope your weekend is going well. Today I will be doing a quick review on this LA Colors Cosmetics High Shine Shea Butter Lipgloss I bought recently. I really only do a review on some products when I have a "collection" per say. But after using this for a couple days, I had to tell you boos about this lipgloss and how amazing it really is. Also I guess these glosses are very popular in my town, because, when I finally was able to get my hands on one, almost all were sold out accept this one shade "Dollface", which is a amazing fall color to start off with. LA Colors was so nice to send me 5 of the shades. But I will continue to look in my area for more of these glosses, and add them to this review, when I do find them, so stay tune! Enjoy!

Colors, as you already know from my previous post, the Brush with Fame Challenge has ended and as promised, I will be doing reviews on each of products I used for my challenges.

 L.A. Colors Hydrating Lipstick Dark Cherry




My Review:
These lipsticks are super moisturizing and kept my lips hydrated all day, I have dry lips so a lot of times I will put on lipstick and within a matter of minutes, its settled into all my dry spots and I either need to reapply or apply some lip balm. This is totally not the case,  These lipsticks seem to glide on like butter on my lips, with super smooth application, which is a plus for me, (NO! girl wants a lipstick that are a pain in the butt to put on) but I had to reapply a few times through out the day but, I did notice if I prime my lips with foundation or concealer before applying lipstick, the staying power seem to stay about 2 hours, which is awesome. & HELLO!, No gloss or balm needed, you have all the moisture you need :

ELF Haul & Review! (Cruelty Free Company)



Hello Boos, Back with another Cruelty Free review on ELF Cosmetics. ELF was having a 50% off sale. So I pick up a few to do a review on. These products are cruelty free and endorsed by PETA. Hope you enjoy this review, any questions feel free to comment below!

Shipping & Processing:
Processing after payment of order was very fast and the next day my package was shipped. It was sent by FedEx Smartpost. Shipping time was horrible, my package ended up getting lost in transit and its was reshipped the next day. It took me about 2 weeks to get my package. Packing of the makeup was very secure and nothing chip or broke during transit. 

e.l.f. Essential Lipstick

Product Info: 
 Indulge your lips with long lasting color and shine. The moisture rich formula hydrates, conditions and softens on contact for silky smooth lips. Instantly beautiful, healthy-looking lips designed, formulated and tested by our professional team of makeup artists. 
 
Colors I purchased: 
Flirtatious
Sociable
Posh
Voodoo
Captivating
Classy
Seductive
Charming
Fearless

Review: 
I love these because even when they fade away, they stain the lips so you are left with quite a bit of color if you did not reapply. But be careful with colors as some are better than the others, packaging may come flawed in some, so get a replacement before assuming that all are the same terrible packaging. All of them stain the lips, all of them has no glitter except Sociable.
 
Where to Buy: $1 

e.l.f. Studio Blush Palette - Dark

Product Info: 
This beautiful blush palette holds 4 gorgeous shades to mix and match throughout the year for a custom blended color. Great for contouring, shading, sculpting, and highlighting, these silky smooth blushes create a beautiful pigmented glow. With a mixture of complimentary matte and shimmer finishes, you can achieve a professional look every time. 
 
Review: 
Holy pigmentation!!!! There are 4 shades total and one has glitter in it but I did not see it on my face (even in sunlight) or my arm swatch. The lightest of touch is needed with these. The colors are all like butter. I personally will wait until summer is in full swing before I bust this palette out. It is gorgeous and I highly recommend. 

Where to Buy:$6

e.l.f. Essential Eyelid Primer

Product Info:
Preps your eyelid for smoother, longer-lasting and crease-proof eyeshadow. The lightweight liquid formula quickly absorbs into the skin for comfortable wear and increases eye color longevity.

Review:
 I was very pleased to try this product that is so inexpensive and have it work so well! I have tried several pricier eyeshadow primers and they have not worked nearly as well as this product.
This primer is easy to apply and dries very quickly. A little goes a long way and it doesn't leave any residue on the eyelid that would effect the color of your shadow.
I would definitely buy this product again!
Where to Buy:$1
 

e.l.f. Studio Lip Exfoliator

Product Info: 
Gently exfoliate lips to remove dry, chapped skin with our Lip Exfoliator! A sweet sugar and smoothing sensation, infused with Vitamin E, Shea Butter, Avocado, Grape and Jojoba Oils to nourish and protect. This Lip Exfoliator treats and smoothes lips for a conditioned and revitalized feel.

Review: 
It improved the look of my lips after about three uses. This exfoliator smells like warm vanilla sugar. Great to put on before lipstick to get a smooth lip. I'm not worried if I accidentally eat some because the ingredients are pretty much natural and it tastes yummy.

Where to Buy:$3

Cruelty Free

My Review:
Swatches

Pros: cheap, everywhere, cruelty free
Cons: not long lasting, packaging

A good, affordable way to try colors one wouldn't otherwise try. For a dollar (or less), these are great to experiment with and while I'm not fond of all of them, I will use them when trying to achieve certain looks. They are moisturizing and have no offensive scent. The only problems I would say they have is that they aren't long lasting and bleed.

The packaging, of course is not the best, plastic tube that won't allow the bullet to fully retract (I've nicked these lipsticks more times than I can count).

Where to buy: Any Drugtore
