Review: Colourpop Cosmetics New Fall Ultra Matte Liquid Lipsticks


If you haven't read my blog post/review of the Colourpop Cosmetics Ultra Matte Liquid Lipsticks then click here and basically you'll know that I love them. So when Colourpop came out with new shades for the fall, I just had to grab them!

The new colors that I picked up are Clueless, BeeperKapow, and Bad Habit. These four liquid lipstick shades are all perfect for the fall. First off the bat, they are the classic Colourpop matte liquid lipstick formula that I love. They come in the same packaging as all the other permanent liquid lipsticks. I'm not sure if these four colors are going to be part of the permanent collection but so far on their website they are still stocked.

Here are what all new four shades looked like swatched. 




From left to right is Clueless, Beeper, Kapow, and Bad Habit.

 If you want to see what all four looks like on my lips, swatched, and how I feel about them please click on read more below!

December 2015 Ipsy Glam Bag: With Love From Ipsy


Another month, another Ipsy bag! This time we received the December or the end of the year Ipsy bag. The theme is called "With Love From Ipsy" and correlates with the holidays that are coming around the corner. 

The bag design is a beautiful bright holiday red and is a pouch shape instead of the classic rectangle shape Ipsy bags usually have. It also has a quilt pattern on the front and back but the material is shiny like plastic. I think that it's cute but to me it feels a bit gaudy. 

As per usual, Ipsy glam bag is a monthly beauty description service that tailors to your beauty/style quiz. You will receive five different beauty items each month for only $10. So if you want to see what I received in this month's bag please click on read more!

This collection includes a six piece eyeshadow set that includes all brand new shades as well as their classic super shock shadow formula. This collection is all about taking it back to the 90’s (my favorite era) and I’m super excited to talk about each shadow.




Again, this set includes six super shock shadows. The colors are Crimper, As If, Melrose, Koosh, 90210, and Baby-T. These are all named with 90's themed names and I just love that.

Influenster: Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara


Hello lovelies! Today I have a new blog post about an item that I received to try out from Influenster. If you don't know what Influenster is get on it! My friend referred me to the site which is basically "a community for social media hotshots to share news, products, and reviews". As an influenster all you have to do is review products and take little surveys to heighten your impact score in order to receive a free box of goodies to try out. 

This is the first time that I received an influenster box, which is the beauty influenster box, since this is the category that I am most interested and dedicated in. The beauty box is by Marc Jacobs and I received the Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara

I am so excited to try out and review this mascara since this is the first Marc Jacobs beauty product I have ever owned! If you want to find out what I think about this mascara then please click on Read More.

Review: Colourpop Cosmetics Ultra Matte Liquid Lipstick


Happy Monday beautiful's! Let's grab a cup of coffee and talk about the one beauty item that I cannot wait to get more of, liquid lipsticks. Okay, so let's think about around the end of May into June when Colourpop Cosmetics launched their own line of Ultra Matte Liquid Lipsticks. Here are the top three thoughts that crossed my mind.

1) How much is it?!

2) What are the color shades?!

3) HOW CAN I BUY THIS RIGHT NOW?!?!?!?

For hours, I researched on Youtube for any lip swatches of all the shades Colourpop was intending to release so that I could pick out the colors that I really wanted. If I had it my way I would have honestly bought the entire line because each was only $6 but of course I'm a broke college student and if I were to do that, no matter how amazing the price was, it seriously takes a toll on my wallet. So after hours of searching I narrowed down my choices to five that I thought I would wear often. 

But getting those five were a nightmare. The moment the liquid lipsticks launched on their website, it was impossible to get any order in. But I persevered on because that's what a makeup enthusiast (aka addict) does! I WANTED--nope NEEDED these liquid lipsticks and I didn't care how long it would take for me to get them. After probably two whole hours on the website, I finally got to place my order!

So the five liquid lipsticks that I purchased are Tulle, Bumble, Trap, Highball and LAX. These are the colors that I thought I would wear the heck out of. So please click on read more if you want to find out my thoughts on these Ultra Matte Liquid Lipsticks!
