elf Single Eyeshadow Review

I have 3 of these elf single eyeshadows, so I decided why not do a review on them? (Sorry about posting so much about elf! Since I had that huge haul I've been working with those products) I have them in oatmeal, pebble, and saddle.

Left to right: Oatmeal, Saddle, Pebble

Oatmeal is hard to see because it's such a skin-toned natural color. It's my favorite out of the three. Oatmeal has sparkle, while saddle has more of a sheen, and pebble is matte. I personally love these eyeshadows because for $3, you get a pretty good amount of product. A lot of elf products are hit and miss, but I think these are hits.

July Favorites

So I'm finally back! I got my camera early, actually I got it today, and I was so excited I decided I had to do a post immediately! So I decided on july favorites!

Walking on Eggshells Wet n Wild Trio: This is amazing for an everyday look and the eyeshadows are so pigmented and easy to work with. I'm in love!

ULTA Tinted Lip Balm in Sweet: This looks so pretty on the lips, it's a light pink with sparkle and it's very sheer but gives your lips the prettiest sheen!

elf Nail Polish in Champagne: This color is the prettiest light pink that's perfect for everyday.

Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition 3 Minute Undo Dryness Reversal Treatment: This makes my hair soo smooth, but it can be extremely nourishing, so using it on the roots can make you a bit oily. I love to use it on my tips to keep them healthy!

Tresemme Tres Gel: This gel works really nice, I bought a travel size for the beach because I needed something to scrunch with, and I really love it!

Break from Blogging!

So, my birthday is coming up in August and I picked out a camera that I really want that will definitely improve my blogging skills with clearer pictures and better quality pictures that show the colors and products muuch better. Anyways, when I get my birthday money I'm going to go out and buy it, but I'm going to take a break from blogging until then, because I don't feel that my posts are good quality if the pictures aren't good. So, I will continue blogging after August 11th. (my 15th birthday!!) I'll be working on blog post ideas so that when I come back I'll have some great stuff to post!

Products I Regret Buying

So today I'm doing a post about products I regret buying. These are products I definitely wouldn't repurchase. I do have a lot of things I regret buying, but I felt like they all needed to be included. These range from nail polishes, to makeup, and a hair product. I'll put why I won't repurchase them also.

ULTA Nail Polish in Peach Parfait: too streaky

Funky Fingers Nail Polishes: streaky, messy, terrible quality

L.A. Colors Shimmering Loose Eyeshadow: inconvenient packaging, hard to get to the product, the brush it comes with gets smashed and messed up

Covergirl Lipstick in Sugar Almond: too much shimmer, shows the lines in your lips 

NYX Lipstick in Vitamin: too much sparkle

Wet N Wild Lipgloss in Cherish: basically pure shimmer

aussie anti-frizz cream: didn't do anything

Maybelline ultra liner waterproof: I don't like the brush, crumbles when you wear it too long and gets stuck in your eyelashes

elf liquid liner in silver: too liquidy, doesn't apply well

NYC pencil liner: hard to get any color on your waterline, too waxy not creamy enough

elf clarifying pressed powder in ivory: too powdery, too much fall-out, makes you look cakey, you can see the powder on your face

ULTA extreme wear cream eyeshadow in Creme Puff: I have one of these in tiramisu cream that I love, but this one doesn't have as much pigmentation and is hard to find uses for. It's light pink in the packaging but turns to a extremely sheer white shimmery color.

elf duo cream eyeshadow in butter pecan: barely any pigmentation, feels sort of greasy

covergirl quad in pure romance: don't use it much, pigmentation isn't great, shadows aren't easy to work with

revlon quad in neutral khaki's: pigmentation isn't great, lots of fallout when used to much, kind of powdery and messy

elf stipple brush: bristles aren't dense at all

So those are all of the products I regret buying, keep in mind a lot of them were inexpensive, and that's really what you could expect out of some of the products. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this post! 

NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss Review!

I'm always up for trying out new lipglosses, and since I have 3 of these, I figured I could review them! These are the NYX Mega Shine Lip Glosses! They can be found at ULTA, and NYX has prices similar to drugstore brands. You can also find them online at cherryculture.com for great prices! I don't have a picture on here that shows the lid, but the packaging is adorable! They have cute little bows on the top! I have them in 3 shades, and I love them all!

top: french kiss, a natural berry color with sparkle

middle: nude peach, a lighter pink with sparkle

bottom: beige, a matte natural berry  color (basically the matte version of french kiss)

Pro's: a little goes a long way, smells like candy, inexpensive, not too sticky but stays on for a good amount of time, good color selection, good pigmentation

Con's: some have too much sparkle in them and if you use too much it tends to gather around the edges of your lips (as I said, a little goes a long way!)

Overall rating: 4.5/5
I totally recommend these!
