Rimmel Stay Matte Powder Review





I absolutely LOVE this powder! It feels great on your skin and never looks cakey. It's so affordable and really sets your makeup well! As the second product I've ever tried from Rimmel, I'm so impressed! I heard so many raves on youtube that I had to try it out for myself, and it's just amazing. I can't go on enough. Ah. My goodness. It has minerals in it, and it's completely matte, and just amazing. I have nothing else really to say, besides the fact that it's AMAZING.

Maybelline Line Stiletto Review





Holy grail product found! This eyeliner is so easy to apply (and I'm terrible at liquid liner) and so pigmented! It stays all day and has a great color. I absolutely love this and recommend it to everyone! The applicator is a sponge tip and it's so easy to use. I now wear liquid liner daily! Mine is is black/brown, although its more brown than black. I can't rave enough about this eyeliner! It's a great product!

Holy Grail Hair Products

Today's post is about some holy grail hair products.
On the left is my Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Nutrient Spray
This makes your hair so soft and shiny, and it also smells really good! I like using it as a finishing touch when I style my hair. It makes your hair look so sleek and smooth!
On the right is my Tresemme Tres Two Spray
This hairspray is the best I've ever tried. It doesn't make your hair hard and it holds so well! It can even resist humidity. I have the kind of hair that will fall out of style as soon as I get outside, but with this, it never does! And it's so darn affordable!

Hope you enjoyed my holy grail hair products :)
I have 8 reviews coming up... this month will have a lot of reviews!

New Found Love: Naked

Oh my goodness, this is the most amazing thing I've ever tried EVER. I'm in love.

I'm sure most of you guys have heard of the Urban Decay Naked Palette, and I have been wanting to buy it for MONTHS. I know, I'm a little late on the bandwagon, but the Naked Palette was already out when I first discovered the beauty community on youtube. I actually returned a pair of shoes for this palette. 

As you probably know, it has 12 eyeshadows, a brush, and a mini UDPP, and costs $50. 






 If you don't already have the Naked palette, GO BUY IT! This palette is so amazing and perfect for everyday. You can get natural looks, smokey looks, dark looks, light looks, golden looks, brown looks, what ever you want! It's totally worth the $50. Now my new question is, should I buy the Naked 2 Palette?

Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream Review

Hey guys! So today I have a review for a new product from Maybelline, their dream fresh BB cream! I know I'm excited about BB creams hitting the drugstore, because I don't like the heavy feel of foundation and I don't need much coverage, I just have redness on my cheeks and I do have pretty dry skin. That's why I love tinted moisturizers and BB creams, they're perfect for me!  I picked it up right before I went to the beach, so I could test it out and use it at the beach. Mine is in the shade light/medium and costed $7-8.

Claims:
Enhance skin with eight benefits in 1:
Blurs imperfections
Enhances
Brightens
Adjusts to skin tone
smoothes
hydrates
SPF 30 protects
0% oils and other heavy ingediants

I think it mainly lives up to its claims. It does have light coverage which blurs your imperfections, and doesn't cover them. Also I do think its smoothing, hydrating, brightening, and does enhance your skin. It gives you a dewy look. Although, it can get a little greasy feeling when it's extremely hot outside. If you have oily skin, this product might not be for you, because I have dry skin and it does give a very dewy look which can look oily when there's too much of it. As to the adjusting to skin tone, it does match my skin very well and doesn't look like I caked anything on. So I guess that means it adjusts!

My overall opinion: I really love this. It's a drugstore product so it's inexpensive and easy to get, it gives the perfect sheer coverage, and it doesn't feel heavy on the skin! I would recommend this to anyone who doesn't want or need heavy foundation with extreme coverage, especially to those with drier skin!

Walking On Eggshells


Recently I picked up this Wet n Wild Trio in Walking on Eggshells, which is extremely popular around the beauty community. It was $2.69 at Giant. It comes with 3 eyeshadows that tell you exactly where they go. emilynoel83 on youtube (Beauty Broadcast) Talking about all three of these colors being dupes for mac eyeshadows!
This is perfect for everyday, school, work, whatever you do on a daily basis because it's pretty natural and easy and quick.

I took the eyelid shade and put it all over my lid and then fluffed the crease shade into my crease. I put a tiny bit of the browbone shade on my inner corner.
 I really love these eyeshadows, they're extremely pigmented and have an amazing price. Definitely my favorite drugstore eyeshadow brand!

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!
