Quick Review: Kosas Wet Lip Oils in Jaws and Jellyfish

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 to tote
around. That sounds silly but hey, after all of the lip products I’ve bought, there’s definitely something
to be said for sturdy and stylish packaging. I have to want to carry it around with me, and I have to
trust that the packaging can stand a bit of wear and tear without letters fading off, metallic overlay
getting scratched or worn, or caps coming unscrewed.

As for the shades, Jellyfish looks like it might be a peachy nude, but it actually goes on clear.
Jaws is the sheer, juicy, bright  red of my dreams.

You don’t even need a mirror to reapply since they are gorgeously sheer. Which is a good thing…
because these don’t last long at all. I don’t expect them to because they are an oil, but it’s worth
mentioning. They last the same amount of time as the Dior lip oils, which is to say about an hour or
so. What’s good is that when they do fade, they fade evenly with no patchiness or bleeding.

The only reason I’d give this product four out of five stars is that I wish there was a little more
product- I’ve noticed that I’ve begun to run through it rather quickly. I’ve been wearing gloss for a
long time and I’ve never run through a tube this quickly with other formulas, even with shades I’ve
loved and often reapplied.

However, it’s an easy trade-off for me given how incredible this product looks and feels on the
lips.



Have you tried anything from Kosas?

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...

Products I've Hit Pan On!

Image
Whenever I look back on my instagram to see which posts were the most popular, it's always the posts featuring products I've #hitpan on. The panning community in general is awesome, so I figured I'd do a post showing all the products in my collection that currently have some pan going on! And I'm sure I'll have another post like this soon, because I have so many products, particularly eyeshadows, that are soooo close to hitting pan. Anyways- let's get into the good stuff! First up is this Too Faced Jingle All the Way "phone palette" that I've had for ages. It was my first foray into high-end eyeshadow- picked up for a measly 15 bucks when I went on vacation to Washington, D.C. I believe it was part of a holiday collection, and I grabbed it out of the sale bin the following spring. You can definitely see which shadows were part of my "signature look" with this palette- I would use the light matte brown in the crease, the bronze/cop...
