NYX Butter Lipsticks Review!

 I love butter and I love lippies so why not have the best of both worlds?! LOL just kidding...  I really wanted to try these out because I loved the NYX Extra Creamy Round Lipsticks so much that I figured these would be just as amazing.  Surely enough, they exceeded my expectations :) I find that the butter ones are actually more moisturizing and lightweight than the extra creamy lipsticks. They're just super creamy and velvety smooth on the lips to the point where it doesn't even feel like you're wearing a lipstick, which I love because my lips tend to chap easily but I didn't have that problem with these. According to other blogger reviews, a lot of people mentioned that the lighter shades didn't seem to be as pigmented as the darker shades so keep that in mind if you're considering buying these! The original price for these lipsticks are $6 but I payed $4.50 for each lipstick because I got a 25% discount! So if you want to save some extra bucks, just simply make an account with NYX Cosmetics and you can receive 25% off your entire purchase!

Licorice: deep burgundy










Sweet Tart: deep pink w/ blue undertones










Mary Janes: true red

DUPE for Sigma Beauty Sigmax Kabuki Kit!

If you're looking for some HQ makeup brushes but don't want to spend a lot, you should try out these kabuki brushes! Just because a beauty product isn't "high end," it doesn't necessarily mean that it won't work just as well. I bought these brushes last summer but I didn't start using them until recently and they've made a huge difference to my make-up routine! I bought them on Amazon for $15 from Royal Care Cosmetics. They're super soft, dense, doesn't shed and blends like a dream :) What's also amazing about Royal Care Cosmetics is that they have awesome customer service! They shipped my package the day after I placed my order & I received the brushes within 2 days! So if you're impatient like me, I'm pretty sure they'll exceed your expectations :)

Includes:

• Flat Kabuki - liquid foundation
• Rounded Kabuki - powder
• Angled Kabuki - blush
• Tapered Kabuki - contour/highlight

Coastal Scents Forever Blush Review!

If you're a blush addict like me or just looking for a new blush to try out, you NEED to go onto the Coastal Scents website and order these blushes right now! These blushes are just so so so amazing! I wish I could own all 18 shades LOL. I randomly stumbled upon them as I was online shopping and was really curious because I had barely seen/heard any reviews from the beauty community about this product. They're insanely pigmented which can be a good and bad thing...  I'd definitely recommend using a very light hand because you can always build up the color versus applying too much and looking like a clown. These blushes are easy to blend so if you do happen to apply too much like I did the first time; don't worry, they're not hard to work with. To avoid applying too much product onto the cheeks, I would swipe the blush onto the top of my hand once before applying it to my cheeks.  I think these blushes are super affordable for the quality you get out of them. Since you don't need to use a lot of the product, they will last you a very long time! The original price for these blushes are $7.95 each but I payed $5.95 for each blush because I got a 25% discount! So if you want to save some extra bucks, just simply make an account with Coastal Scents and you can get discounts and earn points with every order :)

Exquisite

Exquisite: Deep berry shade w/ a matte finish. This is the darkest blush out of all of the ones I bought but is still definitely just as wearable. In the pan it looks really intimidating, but once you blend it out, it looks amazing.

Lovely

 

Lovely: Deep coral shade w/ a shimmer finish. This blush would be perfect for the spring and summer!

Royal

Royal: Mauvey-pink shade w/ a matte finish that looks really natural on the cheeks. Royal would be a perfect everyday blush!

Sweet

Sweet: Medium pink shade w/ a satin finish.
This the most subtle shade out of the four. I think Sweet would be suitable for all skin tones because it's not too dark nor too light!
