Colourpop X Kathleenlights Collab 3: Review + Swatches


Hello beauty lovers and welcome back to another blog post! Kathleenlights is at it again with a brand collection collaboration with Colourpop Cosmetics and as the avid fan I am, I had to pick them up.

This time, Kathleenlights came out with three Ultra Satin Lips in the shades Alyssa, November, and Point Zero and a set of Creme Gel Liners in pot and and pencil form called Mr. Bing. I ended up picking up the majority of the collection except for the Ultra Satin lip in Alyssa because I felt like it may be too light for me.  

But I got the rest! And I am so exited to shares my thoughts and swatches on these new products. Please click on Read More to keep on reading!

Ofra Long Lasting Liquid Lipsticks: Review + Swatches


Hi guys and welcome back to another blog post! Once again I'm reviewing my favorite type of lipstick, liquid lipsticks. These liquid lipsticks are by Ofra Cosmetics and I am so excited to talk about this brand. I hadn't really heard about Ofra Cosmetics except for some Youtube videos until I found out that Kathleenlights did a liquid lipstick collab with them.  I absolutely love Kathleen and I love to support my fave Youtubers whenever they come out with a beauty product so not only did I get her liquid lipstick, I also got four more that I thought I would like. 

Ofra Cosmetics was created by Ofra Gaito, a therapist and makeup artist, and had begun this brand by opening up spas. She expanded her line to what it is today with her husband David and have created a professional skin care and makeup line. According to Youtubers and Kathleen, these long lasting liquid lipsticks have a different formulation in comparison to other liquid lipsticks. 



The shades that I got are Pasadena, Mocha, Americano, Miami Fever, and Honolulu (from left to right, swatched against my skin).

Claims: Ofra Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick is a one step full lip color that does not feather. These vibrant colors will give you a vivacious new look. They are creamy and soft in texture, moisturizing the lips and creating a long lasting lipstick effect. No need to use lipliner, this liquid lipstick gives a beautiful edge to your lip look! Our formula is a matte color formula. All shades contain antioxidants and Vitamin E while the formula provides a lightweight layer of lasting color to make you look stunning all day. Color will last in a perfect condition up to five hours without eating or drinking. For best results do not eat or drink for 15 minutes after applying. Please note that this is not a lip stain and does not dry completely but remains on your lips for hours!

Now that you've read the claims, lets check out each liquid lipstick that I got!

Review & Swatches: Rimmel Showoff Matte Lip Velvet's


Hello everyone and welcome back to a review and swatches post! Today, I'll be talking about the new Rimmel Showoff Matte Lip Velvet's. These are fairly new at the drugstore and are the sister product to the Rimmel Showoff Lip Lacquers that came out when we first started our blog. Those lip lacquers may be our first blog post ever, so getting the new ones felt pretty sentimental...well to me it does. 

Anyways, I heard about these new Rimmel Showoff's from a number of Youtube videos but I felt, knowing my area, that it would have probably been sold out already. So honestly I wasn't even going to buy them. But then, I went to Walgreens to get batteries for my brother's Christmas present (which is a coin counter lol) and literally saw all the new Rimmel Showoffs, completely in stock. Without even hesitating, I got three of the colors that I was most interested in out of the five shades they offered. The three colors that I got are Atomic Rose, Meteoric Matte, and Burning Lava. I am so super excited about these new lippies and so here are the claims.

Claims: Matte to the future! Show off lip color now with new velvety matte finish. Weightless liquid colour with a velvety smooth finish. Earth-shattering intense colour stays true for up to 8 hours. Moisturizing formula instantly increases lip moisture by 31%. 

So those are all the claims, let's get on with the review!

Review: Jordana Twist & Shine Moisturizing Balm Stain


Hello there! Welcome to another lip product review (we hope you like these). This is going to be as short and as simple as I can possibly make it. These lip pies have been in the market for quite some time and these are the Jordana Twist & Shine Moisturizing Balm Stain. I heard amazing things about this lip product, especially from the youtubers eleventhgorgeous. I don't exactly remember what they said about it but that it was good. Me, being the lip girl that I am, was completely intrigued. Let's check out what claims Jordana has on these Twist & Shine's. 

Claims: Moisturizing balm stain with a lightweight stain. Applies with a glossy finish then transforms into the perfect flush of color. Long lasting, retractable, and paraben free!

I have five different and beautiful shades to review for you today so click on the read more to...read more!

Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette: Swatches & Review


I FINALLY GOT THE URBAN DECAY NAKED 3 PALETTE!!! This has been a long time coming. I've been lusting over this palette ever since it was launched and I finally have it! My goodness, was this hard to track down. I saw it at Macy's in my hometown but at that time I didn't have enough money for it. When I finally got the money, it was all gone. I waited another month or so before I found it again at Ulta, all beautifully restocked. I grabbed one and couldn't wait to get home and try it out. 

Can I tell you that I opened the palette with the utmost care? Like, I didn't want to rip it or anything and I'm not that kind of person. I'm the kid at Christmas that rip open presents and throw it up in the air acting like I don't have to clean any of that up later. I just could not deal with all the excitement. 


I've had this palette for a couple of weeks now and I can say that I have a pretty good opinion about it. So let's get on with the swatches and review!

Review: ItsJudyTime Palette


Who else was excited when Judy, of itsjudytime, announced that she was launching her own palette with BH Cosmetics?! BECAUSE I WAS SUPER EXCITED!!!!!! I had to wait a couple of weeks to get it because I needed some money (I'm a broke college student) so I got this palette after Christmas for a little gift for myself. When the palette finally came, I had never ran that fast to get a package before in my life. It actually came in a big box so it took me forever when I opened it but when I finally did, I swear I could hear the hallelujah chorus play around (cue the dramatics!). Yeah, so you can tell I was super excited. 

I've had this palette now for several weeks now and I feel like I've used and abused the palette enough to know how I feel about it in general. So if you want to know my thoughts about the It'sJudyTime palette than continue to read on!
