28 Days of Kisses (Day 14 Happy Valentine's Day!)

Revlon lipstick in Primrose is a nude/baby doll pink cream. I love it for everyday wear. It's one of my favorites because at the time I got it I was reading the Hunger Games books and loved the fact that it had the same name as Katniss's sitter... Primrose, which was the reason I bought it. Yeah things like that suck me in.

28 Days of Kisses (Day 13 Wet n' Wild Matte Lipstick 965 Cherry Picking)

Wet n' Wild Matte Lipstick 965 Cherry Picking is a bright pinky red. I have been really into matte's lately. I do find the Wet n' Wild matte lipsticks a bit difficult to apply. they tend to need more pressure than regular lipsticks to get the color on and drag ab bit when swiping them on. They do however have pretty good staying power.

28 Days Of Kisses (Day 10 Famous Coral Reef)

Famous is a U.K brand. i had gotten this lipstick in a swap last year. It's such a fun experience to do a swap. You get to make new friends and try things you would never be able to try. I love the packaging on this lipstick. it's square and the end has a little fabric pull tab. It's a really creamy lipstick with great pigmentation.

28 Days Of Kisses (Day 7,Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar, Tone)

So with this big snow storm work has been crazy for the past few days so I'm a little behind on my kisses. Working in a grocery store before a big storm you see just how crazy people are.


This just about sums it up!

However there is nothing like two days off and being snowed in to catch up.

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar in Tone.  This is one of those colors I like to use when I do a really dark or colorful eye and I want to basically block my lips out. It's an extremely light flesh toned pink. It's also good for toning down bright vibrant colors.

28 Days Of Kisses (Day 6 Maybelline Color Sensational Vivids 865 Fuchsia Flash) & Review

This is a new lipstick for me. It's from the Maybelline Vivid's line the has recently come out, which is a collection of extremely bright colors. Fuchsia Flash is a supper bright neon pink. The texture wasn't quite as creamy as I was expecting I found I needed two coats to get it to be that bright opaque neon. It feels nice on the lips with a glossy cream finish. I did find like with a lot of bright pinks it does stain the lips. I think it's going to be a great fun color for spring.

28 Days Of Kisses (Day 1, Revlon ColorStay Ultimate Suede #005 Muse)

For the month of February I will be participating in 28 Days of Kisses Hosted by Nykki of Nykky-talks-beauty. The idea is you post everyday for 28 days showcasing a different lipstick. This is going to be a challenge for me as lipstick is usually the last thing I think to put on when I do my makeup and if I do remember I always forget to reapply. So it's going to a good way to get use out of my lipsticks. It's also going to be a good way to get back into posting more often.  Plus I'll get practice of lip swatches. I have to admit I usually for go them and just swatch on my arm because I have a hard time getting a good lip swatch photo.

Maybelline 24/7 Color Tattoo Metal Review.

Cream gel eyeshadow for long-lasting shimmery metallic shades
Smooth, Bold Metallic Shades
24HR wear cream gel formula for smooth application

 Maybelline.com description. 

After hitting up some photos of swatches online the only colors that I was interested in were Inked in Pink and Electric blue. The silver and gold shades seemed really spotty and grainy glittery. 

This collection is describes as being Metallic, but the two shades that I got don't come off as metallic to me they are more of a pearl or a shimmer. The fact that they are not metallic doesn't bother me because they are still really nice shades but if your going to describe a collection as metallic they should be what you say they are.

My Bloody Valentine Smokey Eye Tutorial

Being the Valentine's day cynic that I am I wanted to explore more of an anti-Valentine's day look. It's a very vampy look with the smokey eye with a bit of red and bright raspberry lips.
