Review: bareMinerals Marvelous Moxie Lipstick in Speak Your Mind


 Aww, lookit this thing. It’s so little. I got it as a 100-point perk redemption on Sephora back in March of last year and I’ve been neglecting it lately. I found it rolling around in the bottom of my vanity and decided to review it and give it some love!
 Speak Your Mind is a bubblegum pink with a rosy undertone. It smells, applies and feels just like MAC lipstick (a light distinctive vanilla scent, opaque, nice and smooth), but wears just a bit more comfortably. I like it better than MAC!
Speak Your Mind is a rather reserved colour, and the only thing MAC has over this line from bareMinerals is their shade range. There are only a few colourful shades in this line. 

However, if I got the chance, I wouldn’t say no to picking up a full size of this lipstick in a different colour! For now, I’ll be working on this deluxe sample and hopefully it’ll show up in an empties post in the future.

Quick Review: Kosas Wet Lip Oils in Jaws and Jellyfish

Image
Today I’ve decided to post a review on a recent favourite product of mine! I feel it deserves more exposure, but I also want to inform people of all the aspects of the product so they can make an informed decision on whether to purchase them! These are the Wet Lip Oils from the brand Kosas. I love these glosses! I initially purchased the shade Jellyfish and recently picked up the shade Jaws as well. They are comfortable, true to the name (very wet and juicy-looking on the lips) and have awesome ingredients, like buzzworthy hyaluronic acid, peptides and evening primrose oil.  The formula is thin but moisturizing- these don’t feel oily on the lips, they feel like something between a conditioning lip mask and a balm. The product smells lightly of candied oranges, which I adore and find quite unique. It definitely enhances the experience of this product for me. I love the packaging too- the thin doe-foot makes it easy to reapply and they’re fun pieces t...

Review: Maybelline Brow Drama Pomade Crayon

Image
Hey guys, long time no post! I'm here today to review the new Maybelline Brow Drama Pomade Crayon. This is an interesting product for sure- one of the many new and exciting things Maybelline has put out for us this spring. The crayon is a short, chubby pencil that is supposed to be a brow pomade in crayon form. There are obviously drawbacks to this design- while it's a cool concept, frankly, the thing is huge. Maybelline definitely should have gone with something a lot less thick. I got the shade Dark Brown, I believe. As you can see, while the product is sharp now, it doesn't take much to run it down and I fear for the day this becomes too nubby to use (I've been using it on an angle so far). The formula, however, is pretty gorgeous. It's soft and emollient, but amazingly pigmented. It gives a soft effect rather than a harsh line. Here are my brows with no product in them. And here is the Maybelline Brow Drama Pomade Crayon applied to them. I ...

May Favourites 2016!

Image
May went by so slowly for me, but it was a month of excitement for sure! Eurovision happened and I got a job! Let's see what I loved through this month. A lot of oldies in here! First I've got some Makeup Geek shadows to talk about, and for once, I'm not waxing poetic about their Foiled eyeshadows. Makeup Geek's matte shadows in Chickadee (left) and Cocoa Bear (right) are deserving of all the hype they get. They pair together perfectly to create a warm crease. I'd never actually owned a warm medium brown eyeshadow before this, and let me just say- where have I been?! I've been wearing them all month and the only complaint I have is that now I'm in a bit of an eyeshadow rut because I don't want to wear anything else! Here's them both in my crease with Makeup Geek Foiled eyeshadow in Center Stage on the lid. Every few months or so I fall back in love with my Urban Decay Electric Palette- however, it's usually the shimmers I love. This...
