Products I want to use up

I really really would like to finish up my Bobbi Brown Gel Eyeliner.

I personally like gel eyeliners, I like how they look on my eyes than liquid liners. I like how long lasting they are. The only thing I dislike about gel eyeliners is that I have to use an eyeliner brush. I don't mind this, however what I hate is that I have to constantly clean the eyeliner brush. Because the gel liner residue will dry on your gel liner brush, it's not sanitary and it will make your second gel eyeliner application very patchy and difficult.

Anyway, I would make the effort to wash my eyeliner brush to use this product up ! We will see when that happens.

NARS Satin Lip Pencil- Floralies Review & Swatch, lip swatch

at $25 price point this pencil is really a piece of ___. As you can see how much product you waste whenever you have to sharpen this thing with a sharpener- not to mention I have to buy a jumbo sized sharper for this pencil. 

The product itself is okay. Not great but okay. It doesn't have very good long lasting power, color looks nice though. 

Bottom line, I think this product is way too overpriced for it is. However, NARS has some pretty unique lip colors that other brands don't have.  I would not re-purchase ANY NARS lip pencils in the near future until the day these don't need to be sharpened anymore. 

P.S Look at how much product you waste everything you sharpen it!!

As you can from my swatches, i would say covergirl eyeshadow Mink is very close to all that glitters.

Although i prefer urban decay sidecar the most.

Eye Makeup Remover Comparison & review - lancome, Bobbi brown, clarins & maybelline.

My favorite of out the the bunch is  the Lancôme Bi-facial makeup remover (this is in deluxe sample size. However, I have used up 3 full bottle of this ). This is amazing, it's super gentle on your eyes, however it removes water proof makeup and mascara super quick and easy! Love love love. 

My second favorite is maybelline clean express makeup remover. This gives me the same results as the Lancome one. I can't tell what's different between the two that I still favor the lancome one a bit more ( maybe it's because I have using it for years ).The only obvious difference is the price gap! I think I will switch to maybelline from now on. I have always been a fan of maybelline eye makeup removers. 

My third pick is Clarins instant eye makeup remover ( they have a new packaging now ) . This one also removes water proof makeup pretty well. I don't like it because it feels greasy and oily on your eyes. Would not re-purchase. 

My least favorite is Bobbi Brown instant long wear makeup remover (this is in sample size packaging as well ) . This does remove your water proof eye makeup, however this is even more greasy and oily than the Clarins. Takes a bit longer and more product to remove all eye makeup. It also kind of irrated my eyes... I didn't like it.

Buxom Full On LIp Polish in Dolly Swatch / Review

Im not a fan of any Buxom lip glosses.

Here's what i have to say about this product:

• • Don't like the plumbing feeling-it is strong
  • Not moisturizing.
  • Your lips will peel after.
  • Color is okay, not outstanding.
  • Very sticky! Will get to your hair on windy days !

Overall : i don't recommend it !

Lancome Bienfait Aqua Vital 

Chanel Sonate Murmure #179 Glossimers | Spring 2014

What I think of luxury makeup.

First of all, this is my first ever Chanel makeup piece. I've had Dior, Estée Lauder, Lancôme. I don't really consider Tarte, urban decay, stila or too faced to be luxury makeup lines. 

Chanel is definitely a luxurious makeup brand to me. At $30, you can acquire a chanel lipgloss. Their blushes are more than $40. Dior makes better quality makeup than Chanel. What I love about chanel makeup is mostly the packaging. 

What I think of this lipgloss:

The packaging feels really light , I wouldn't say cheap, but it does not feel expensive what so ever. There's no writing or design to the tube of the lipgloss other than the chanel logo on the top of the lipgloss. 

The gloss itself is good. It's a very light color gloss. It stayed on my lips for a good 3 hours, without me drinking or eating. 

Overall, it's just a another lip gloss that has a chanel logo on it. I wasn't wowed by it, nor it had anything wrong with it. It was just okay. 

Bottom line, I'm paying the ridicouls price for the brand, for the chanel logo. You can definitely find just as decent of a lipgloss at the drugstore.

January favorites 2014 -what I have been loving

January was a great month for me makeup wise. I loved everything I was using. 

First, I've been loving the benefit highlighter. It's been a while since I used a cream highlighter, since it's been really cold, I didn't mind. I actually really really loved the way it looked on my face, it adds a glow that your powder highlighter cannot give you.

Stila waterproof eyeliners- love love love. My favorite color is fish lion. It's amazing !!!

Rimmel eyeliner waterproof in nude- amazing. Never ever had a nude eyeliner that stayed on my waterline for that long ! 

Urban decay naked palette - my favorite color this month was sidecar. Can't get enough of sidecar. 

Estée Lauder bronze goddness bronzer - love this for a soft contour. I personally do not like a strong contour. I love this bronzer, the color is perfect. 

Nars sex fantasy blush limited edition - love this blush ! The ONLY blush I used this month. 

Black honey lipstick - Clinique

As you can see it looks more brown than red. It can look very vampire-ish on me. I don't like this color or the formula. I also dislike lip products that have a little of shimmer/glitter.

Note : this is a sample of the lipstick. The full size lipstick has a different packaging (more pretty).

I am still working on finishing this lipstick, but i would not re-purchase.
