Tarteist Contour Palette Review


The Tarteist Contour Palette by Tarte sells for $45.00 at Tarte.com, Ulta, and Sephora.This palette is also labeled as Limited-Edition so I don't know how long they will keep it but I have a feeling they will. The palette has  6 numbered contouring shades and a mirror. It has a highlight shade, a correcting shade, a blush, 2 contouring shades and a highlighter. I love this palette contour was always hard for me to find the right shades but with this palette it has all the right shade for me. 
This palette is also very diverse I use it to contour, set my makeup, set my eyeshadow primer, and to create a eye look. I have used this palette when I am on the go or running late I will take it with me  and when I get to work I will do a quick look. The shades are very creamy, smooth and blend out great. You have to go in with a light hand though for the shade are very pigmented.
You can also buy the Tarte Tartiest Sculpt & Slim Contour Brush to go with this palette. The brush sells for $34.00 at Tarte.com, Ulta, and Sephora. Its a little pricey for a brush but it is totally worth it. The brush is soft and really helps blend out your contour and blush. Of course all product are vegan friendly and cruelty free. I will definitely recommend this palette and brush to others and will being buying this palette again if it is still out.

Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara Review

The Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara sells for $23.00 you can buy it at Ulta, Sephora, and too faced.com. I am soo in love with this mascara it makes your lashes big and really stand out. If don't be careful your lashes will clump up, just don't apply to many coats of it. Is it worth the price no, to be honest you could get a drug store mascara that will work just the same, it kind of all depends on the wand. In all honesty I don't think I will be repurchasing this mascara again just because I could find one cheaper.

Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick Review

A month ago I went on the hunt looking for a long lasting lipstick that would stay on for most of the day. After trying different brands and none of them working how I wanted them to I came across the Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks. I saw a lot of great reviews on them and so I decided to give them a try. They are $20 and described as long wearing and full-coverage with a smooth matte finish. They come in 28 shades all matte with high pigment and color rich formula. The shades range between neutral and bold colors. Let me tell you these liquid lipsticks are heaven. They are very pigmented and go on smooth but still stays matte without drying your lips out. 
First applied 
Dried(20 seconds later)
I bought the shades Double Dare(cocoa blush), Berlin(warm rose), Bachelorette(dark reddish fuchsia), and Lovesick(mauve nude). They really do stay on your lips so well, I can eat a meal or even go a whole evening without having to touch up my lips. They are the best liquid lipsticks that I have ever seen and tried, plus the colors are great. I will definitely be buying more and repurchasing in the future.

This is what the Doucce Boombastic Lash Volumizer wand looks like, it looks to be very promising for the lashes.

L'OREAL Infallible Pro-Matte Foundation Review

The L'OREAL Infalliable Foundation is a oil-free, has air-light texture, and demi matte finish. It wears up to 24 hours and has medium coverage. It comes in 12 shades and sells for $12.99. It contains Shine Defy Blotting Spheres that act like blotting paper, it instantly absorbs sweat and oil without disturbing color pigments. I am in shade 101 Classic Ivory and it is definitely a long wearing foundation. I have oily skin especially in my t-zone so having a matte and oil-free foundation is a must for me. This foundation helps me stay matte and looking good all day long. I work with kids so I sweat at times and the foundation does not move at all on my face which is really nice. It really does have a great coverage, a little bit can go a long way. It also blends out amazing on the skin with a brush and with a beauty blender. I definitely recommend this foundation to people who have oily skin and are people that are looking for a matte foundation. I will be buying this foundation in the future and in my opinion it is the best drug store foundation that I have found.

Too Faced La Creme Drenched Lip Cream in Unicorn Tears Review

The La Creme Drenched Lip Cream is drenched with luscious, hydrating moisturizers including white lotus flower and power peptides. It is available only at Ulta and sells for $22.00. I only have one color in the Too Faced Drenched Lip Cream collection and it is the Unicorn Tears. I saw my favorite youtuber Ginger Wesson wearing it in one of her videos and I loved the color.
The colors goes on with a pink and blue shimmer to it and stains pink. It keeps your lips looking great and smooth. I admit when I first saw it I didn't think I would like the color but when I swatch it on my hand I fell in LOVE. It is so beautiful and a unique looking color too. I also bought my mom one for Mothers Day because when she saw it she also fell in love with it too. I definitely recommend this to others and will be buying again.

May Ipsy Glam Bag Review Update

So I thought I would give a update on the products I got from my May Ipsy Glam Bag.
First off the Vera Mona brush I love it is perfect for doing my under eye and for packing product on the eyelid. The It Cosmetics No-Tug Waterproof Gel Eyeliner is AMAZING it does not move or transfer on my lid, and it is perfect for the waterline for my more dramatic look. I will definitely be buying the full version. The Pacifica Natural Mineral Coconut Eyeshadow Trio not going to lie it didn't really impress me and 2 days after I got it, it went missing for my makeup box. The Epice International Hydrating mask I love it makes your skin feel so good and hydrated. Lastly the Aurora Gel Effect Nail Polish I did not like this. It did not work for me it chipped way to fast and would not go on right at all for me. That was my update on the May Ipsy Glam Bag hope you enjoy it.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kit Review

Anastasia has 2 glow kits in Gleam and That Glow. Gleam is for the lighter skin toned and That Glow is for the darker skin toned. The kits have 4 different highlights and sell for $40 which I think is a good deal.The kit is definitely worth the price and they do sell refill pans online for $14. The kits are labeled as limited edition so I don't know how long it will stay in store but I think it is a permanent product on the Anastasia website. I bought the kit in Gleam for am a faired skin person and I am in love with the colors. There is  Mimosa which is a radiant golden peach with a metallic finish, Hard Candy which is a mood-changing golden peach with a pink pearl reflective finish, Starburst which is a rush of cool pink with an iridescent finish, and Crushed Pearl which is a glimmering pink and silver with a crystalized chrome finish. They are very pigmented and go on smooth. You can stack colors on top of each other to get different looks for your highlight. The kit is definitely worth the price and they do sell refill pans online for $14. I personally love all the options you can do with the colors for a highlight and no matter what they all look nice on the skin. I would definitely recommend Gleam and the That Glow kit to anybody that loves a good highlight.

Too Faced Sweet Peach Palette Review

This palette was the first Too Faced product I have purchased. It sells for $49.00 but it is out of stock and Too Faced has put out a statement saying they will restock hopefully soon. I was able to get my hands on one when I went shopping for my birthday at Sephora plus it was very special to me because they let me have it about 5 days before it was to go on display(i got very lucky). For about 50 dollars it is pretty pricey but very worth it. The shadows are pigmented and blend out amazing plus it smells REALLY good(like peach candy). I really don't like the shadows Tempting and Talk Derby To Me but that's only two the other shadows are beautiful. I do wish the mirror on it was a little bigger but I can work with it. My favorite shadows are Luscious, Just Peachy, Candied Peach, and Bellini. I also love how the shadows have names that have something to with peach. I hope Too Faced brings it back as a permanent product. I would recommend this palette to people and would definitely buy it again.

Morphe 350M & 350S Eyeshadow Palette Review

I was a little spectacle when going to purchase these two palettes. Some people where saying that some of the shadow looked too much a like in the palettes but again a lot of people raved about them. I ended up buying both of the palettes the all matte and the all shimmer(I am a eyeshadow junkie). They each sell for $22.99 but you can get them in a bundle for $43.99 plus $7.24 for shipping. As always they package and ship them covered in bubble wrap inside the boxed palette and outside of the boxed palette to make sure that none of the shadows brake. When I got mine in the mail one of the shimmer eyeshadow pans had come off but with a little bit of super glue I was able to fix it. Both palettes are super pigmented, super creamy, and blend out very nicely. Yes, some of the shadows in the all matte palette are alike and there too many brown shades that look a like but I can look past that since I love to put brown in my crease. In the all shimmer palette it doesn't look to have any shadows that look the same, all are different from the others. I do highly recommend both palettes to people who love eyeshadow and love doing different looks.

Morphe Eyeshadow 350 Palette Review


I had heard a lot if different reviews on the Morphe Brushes 350 Eyeshadow Palette. Some people thought they where made cheap and not a lot of pigment in them. Then I read reviews raving about the eyeshadow palette. Went I went to the website the palette was sold out and I learned that the palette actually sells out really fast, but after a month of waiting I finally got my hands the palette. Now when this was the first time I was ordering a eyeshadow that had to be shipped to me I was very nervous that the eyeshadows might brake while being shipped. I was wrong Morphe does a great job on packaging there products I was very impressed. Now the 350 Palette sells for $22.99 plus $7.24 for shipping. The palette is first beautiful and I don't know where people get the idea that the eyeshadows are not pigmented they are VERY pigmented. The shadows are warmed tone, the palette has both matte and shimmer shadow in it. The shadows are so creamy and go on smooth, not to mention that they blend out beautifully. I would highly recommend this palette to anybody and the price for it is great. Overall I love the 350 Palette and would  definitely buy it again.
