OH BOY!! IT'S A LONG ONE
I have a lot of products to share so I tried to condense some of it into groupings "ENJOY"
LIP PRODUCTS
Maybelline colour sensational limited edition fall, 1000 Lavender Voltage on left and colour sensational vivids in 860 PINK POP to the right. Also the limited edition colour sensational high shine lip gloss 290 Flash of Pink. The lipstick is super creamy and richly pigmented and wears well and fades evenly. The lip gloss gives beautiful sheer colour, very moisturizing and lots of shine.
Revlon lip butter in SUGAR PLUM is perfect for fall/winter it adds sexy glossiness to the lips and just the right amount of colour for anytime wearability.
Wet N Wild mega last lip colour in RAVIN'RAISIN a stunning semi-matte lip experience sure to please those who love big impact colour.
Rimmel Kate lasting finish lipstick in 110 is a super gorgeous velvet matte lip colour that stays put and does not bleed or feather. This is a bright papaya/red that will bring your lips to life anytime of year.
NYX creamy round lipstick in STRAWBERRY MILK this is the most delectable ultra opaque light pink lipstick that makes me think of strawberry marshmallows, it is super hydrating, but does need to be reapplied often, but the colour range in this collection is amazing and totally affordable.
L'Oreal Collection Privee by J'Lo in J'Lo's Nude is bar none the ultimate perfect nude. The super chic and classy packaging is ideally what I would like to see from L'Oreal for all future collections.
GOSH volume lip shine in 03 TEA ROSE is one of the very best lip glosses I have tried. I love the colours offered and it applies incredibly smooth with no drag at all. It does not feel sticky either.
The tube is a very sturdy and simple design.
Make Up For Ever Aqua Rouge water proof liquid lip colour in BRIGHT ORANGE is the clear winner for being the most intense colour payoff ever. Also when used with the clear top coat it will not budge. I have went swimming with this on and it still looked perfect after. This is truly an incredible product and this particular colour is amazing against tan skin in the summer.
ANNABELLE TWISTUP IN ROMANCE. These lip crayons are very convenient and offer a huge shade range. They apply very creamy and last several hours on the lip before touch up is required. There is also quite a bit of product per tube.
What can I say, if I am not wearing lipstick this is what is on my lips 90% of the time
BARE ENGLISH & CO. MINT CHOCOLATE tea infused organic lip balm. Besides being organic this is also a vegan product. They currently offer 3 flavours and are in the process of some other fun and interesting products coming in the near future;) All around between flavour, moisture retention and visible improvement to chapped lips this product gets a 10 from me.
LASTLY FOR LIP PRODUCTS IS MY CHOICE FOR ALL AROUND MOST FAVOURED BRAND AND THAT GOES TO REVLON. They have the most diverse colour range and finishes at drug store level and are the big winners in my books, here is the proof
Top row L2R- 510 Berry Rich (crème),470 Copperglow Berry (pearl) & 625 Iced Amethyst (pearl)
Middle row L2R- 660 Berry Haute (crème), 677 Siren (crème) & 825 Lovers Coral (Shine)
Bottom row starting far left- 001 Nude Attitude (matte), 002 Pink Pout (matte), 415 Pink in the Afternoon (crème), 460 Blushing Mauve (pearl), 850 Plum Velour (shine), 011 Stormy Pink (matte) & 013 Smoked Peach (matte) this shade is one of my all time faves.
HOPE YOU LOVED THESE SELECTIONS NOW LETS MOVE ON TO NAIL POLISH, I HAVE 8 TO SHARE BUT DID GROUPINGS FOR THEM.
NAIL POLISH PRODUCTS
First up is OPI liquid sand in JINX which I purchased right when it first came out and not everyone was familiar with the product yet. It is the best overall for opacity and definitely staying power on busy hands. I have gone a full week with no touch ups. Overall best textured nail polish as well. China Glaze is an amazing bronze thick glitter, but if anyone knows what colour it is please leave me a comment. The sticker with the name came off the bottom:(
This next polish is near to perfection in my eyes what an amazing glitter from SpaRitual. This is limited edition in the colour OUT LOUD its like an ocean for your nails. SpaRitual are 3 free polishes, they make a very unique colour range in small collections. The time and effort put in shows in the quality of their products.
GOSH special edition polish in BERRY ME and NYC long wearing polish in 147 Lexington Lilac
Gosh "Berry Me" is a gorgeous raspberry red that is a crème opaque polish. I find Gosh is another company that makes some very unique colours in their collection especially some of the special editions. The only down side is it does chip easily, but very pretty no less. Then you take a budget friendly brand like NYC that offers polish for $1.50 CAD and Lexington Lilac is an amazing feminine colour that wears incredibly well ( I highly recommend it) :)
To end this very long post is three polishes that are all within different budget prices, but all equally show stopping. Pure Ice in OUTRAGEOUS is a sexy metallic petal pink that leaves an incredible finish and you can easily get away with one coat extremely good coverage $2, Maybelline Color Show Sequins in limited edition shade ROSE BLING such a stunning fine pink glitter with multifaceted large hex glitter combine for a jaw dropping polish $4 and finally very last is SECHE nail lacquer in the colour ENAMORED this is such a splendid chromatic polish, but it does lean on the higher price end at $11.
Both the Pure Ice and Seche can be worn alone, or the Maybelline sequins is a good pairing for both as a top coat.
What were your favourite items that I mentioned in this post???
