Maybelline Color Whisper lipstick in 40 Orange Attitude

hey u! so since i absolutely LOVE lipsticks, lip balms and any other lip products, i decided to try out Maybelline's Color Whisper lip colors in 40 Orange Attitude.  =)  

the packaging for these lip colors is super cute. (i'm definitely a sucker for cute packaging!)

the Maybelline website says:
"Pure color pigments suspended in a weightless gel. No heavy waxes or oils. Soft, sexy gel-color."

this color is somewhat reminiscent of the Revlon Lip Butter in Tutti Frutti, in my opinion, just a little more sheerer. but you can always build up the intensity to your liking.

i purchased this Maybelline Color Whisper at my local CVS. since i bought it a few weeks ago i don't remember how much it cost, sorry guys! but you can always go online to check prices and any special offers that may be available! CVS always has great deals! =) i love CVS! i've been shopping at CVS a lot, for the past two months or so, thanks to their extrabucks rewards! AND their return policy is amazing!  =)
until next time... thanks for stopping by!

Maybelline Color Sensational Vivids lipstick in 885 Vibrant Mandarin

hey u! so a few weeks ago i jumped on the Maybelline Color Sensational Vivids lipstick bandwagon.  =)  

the lip color i decided to try was 885 Vibrant Mandarin.  

the Maybelline website says: "Now bright goes gorgeous, never garish. Brighter color from our exclusive vivid pigments. Creamier feel from nourishing honey nectar."  

  

and i definitely agree with Maybelline's description. this lipstick, 885, is not only pigmented but absolutely gorgeous too! and it's also super creamy.  =)  

i'm beyond excited to try more of these amazing lipsticks! i think the next one on my list might be 880 Electric Orange or maybe 870 Shocking Coral. not sure yet but i guess we'll see so stay tuned.  

until next time... thanks for stopping by!

4-3-13 EOTD - Wet 'n Wild Shimmer The Night Away palette

hey u! so today's Eye Of The Day was created with the Wet 'n Wild Shimmer The Night Away palette. this Wet 'n Wild collection contains 3 limited edition 8 pan palettes, which was released last Fall '12. but i only purchased this palette because of the purple/lilac shades!  =)

for this look, i only used 3 out of the 8 eyeshadows in this 8 pan palette: white, fuchsia, and purple. before applying the purple eyeshadow on my lid, i first applied painted purple color tattoo as a base. then i used the fuchsia eyeshadow to blend out the outer edges of the purple eyeshadow. finally, i used the white eyeshadow to highlight my tear duct. i lined my eye with the Jordana liquid eyeliner before applying my Khroma Beauty eyelashes, which i'm totally loving! i finished up this look by applying a white eyeliner, by Jordana, on my waterline. i must say i'm loving all my Wet 'n Wild palettes! i still have a few more that i will be using for future EOTD posts so stay tuned!
until next time... thanks for stopping by!

3-17-13 Collective Haul

hey u! so for the past couple of weeks i've purchased a few makeup items that i've been wanting to try. only one product was a disappointment: L'Oreal Studio Secrets Professional Sculpting Blush Duo, OneSweep, Nectar 825 (not pigmented). everything else, i loved!  =)  

i was beyond excited to try INGLOT for the first time! and oh em gee...i absolutely loved it! INGLOT eyeshadows and blushes are so silky smooth and easy to blend! i can't wait to get a bigger palette and more beautiful eyeshadows. i also loved all the brushes i bought. i definitely need to get more brushes, especially face brushes. i gotta give Khroma Beauty props for their awesome eyelashes! i'm loving these two that i recently got. i'm also excited to try more OCC Lip Tar's! i have Grandma and i adore it because it's such a gorgeous shade. the Rimmel  palette was a free gift from ULTA for reaching their level 2 rewards. i'm really digging the Milani powder foundation. as well as their color statement lipsticks! i gotta say, i've been into lipsticks and lip products since the beginning of the year and i can't get enough! these two NYX lippies are to die for, especially the lipgloss in 'Smokey Look'.  it is such a sparkly gloss! Gorge! and last, but not least, the purple color tattoo. yes, i finally jumped on the Maybelline Color Tattoo bandwagon, lol. but i can't complain because i am absolutely loving the texture and the color. i must admit, i am content with my collective haul. i got a few awesome products at reasonable prices! you gotta love sales and coupons! i know i do! =) so, what makeup goodies have you purchased lately that you would recommend?

CVS Haul - Lipstick Holder

hey u! so a few days ago i stopped by CVS, to walk around and browse, and guess what i found? well, i found these cute, heavy duty lipstick holders! these lipstick holders hold up to 9 lipsticks of your choice, whether they're round or square in shape. the container is clear and it has 3 tiers.  =)

coincidentally i was on the hunt for some makeup storage because my makeup is pretty much scattered all over the floor and i desperately need some organization...ASAP!  :/  lol.

so needless to say that i was ecstatic when i saw these lipstick holders. CVS currently sells them for $4.99 USD each. i purchased 2 @ $4.99 USD/each but i had a 20% off coupon so instead of paying $9.98 USD i only paid $7.98 USD! gotta love coupons!  =)  i'm currently waiting for my next coupon from CVS so that i can go back and purchase some more! i'm thinking maybe 3 or 4 more...but we'll see. i also kinda wanna go to Target and Walmart, to see if they have any lipstick containers or any other type of makeup storage, before buying anymore of these lipstick holders from CVS. you know, just in case they have bigger containers and/or better deals.
thanks for stopping by! until next time!...  =)

3-3-13 EOTD - Wet 'n Wild Fauna palette

hey u! so today's 'Eye Of The Day' was created using my Fauna eyeshadow trio by Wet 'n Wild, from last years Spring Collection '12. i can't wait to see what they have in store for us this Spring '13.  =)

so the Fauna palette has three beautiful, shimmery eyeshadows, which i used for this eye look. and i finished off the look with my Glimmer lashes by Khroma Beauty! i definitely have to go back to ULTA to pick up some more of these amazing lashes! my liner is by Jordana, which i'm diggin' BUT i wish it was waterproof. if anyone knows of a good, inexpensive, waterproof liner please let me know.  =)
thanks for stopping by! until next time!...

Rimmel Lasting Finish Matte lipstick by Kate Moss #109

hey u! so a few weeks ago i stopped by my local CVS to pick up some goodies, since i had a coupon for $3 off any beauty purchase of $15 or more, so i had to take advantage of this great deal! i bought a powder foundation by Milani, a Wet 'n Wild nail polish and this lipstick by Rimmel.

this Rimmel lipstick is from one of Kate Moss' collections. the lipsticks in the red packaging are Matte; she also has another collection that comes in black packaging.

Rimmel Lasting Finish Matte lipstick by Kate Moss #109

when i first swatched this lipstick on my arm, it kind of looked pinky. but then when i applied it to my lips, it looked more on the coral-ly side. but nonetheless, it's a beautiful color. perfect for spring/summer!

not only did i fall in love with the color BUT i also fell in love with the scent! it smells like a 'paleta de mango con chile', in my opinion, which is a Mexican lollipop. all in all, i was very content with this purchase! for me, this lipstick is a must have! it currently retails around $5 USD, give or take a few cents. (0.14 oz) 
thanks for stopping by!...
