Update: New Natured Beauty Products! πŸŒΏπŸ’„πŸŒΏ

Hi beautiful ladies! I wanted to stop by your feed to share some beautiful new products being sold by Natured Beauty, the wonderful Etsy shop I had mentioned a little while back. The owner Philicia, has been busy at work creating new products and shades to offer us!

Let’s get right into it- starting with the first new lipstick shade she sent me called “International Lover” a dusty, gorgeous pink.
* Looks a tad brighter in this picture than it does in person. *

I have already reviewed the actual lipsticks by Natured Beauty LLC for you in my last post about her lovely shop. But if you don’t recall what I said about them- they are seriously  SO creamy, smell wonderful and they are amazingly opaque! Just as good as my MAC lipsticks, no joke ❀ Her lipsticks hydrate your lips as well as making them look kissable & fabulous. Something MAC did the opposite for me- my lips always felt dry during & after wearing their lippies. 

Next let’s look at her new Buttercream Cupcake Scented Liquid Lip Creams & Hybrids!!! πŸŽ‚

Meet the “Sinful” hybrid, a gorgeous coral yet pinky-toned red that has been sprinkled with fine silver glitter. This is one my absolute favorites out of the shades she sent me! ❀️ It is just such a sexy, vivid color that would look so great on date night paired with a little black dress πŸ˜‰πŸ‘— If only I had a pair of heels in this EXACT shade…

Next we have the beautiful Yellow Liquid Lip Cream in Lemonade Pop- If you remember my last post I had reviewed a yellow lipstick by Natured Beauty called “Lemonade Pop”. This is basically the liquid version- maybe just a tiny bit more vibrant! πŸ’› I seriously just have a special place in my heart for bright yellow lipstick. Maybe it’s because I find it an appealing contrast with my deeply dark hair and eyes, or maybe it’s because I think it is the PERFECT festival lippie color, it radiates sunshine and good vibes! From inside your heart and from your lips! You can’t help but feel bright when you have this shade on 🌟🌞🌟

Now we have “Midnight Purple” Hybrid πŸ’œ This shade is such a rich, kind of galactic-spacey, indigo purple. It is just magnificent! Stunningly beautiful with the many multidimensional shifts of blue and violet. I have never seen anything quite like this shade before, not to mention the color payoff is great and it’s got a super creamy texture. You will feel like a true, sexy space explorer in this color! πŸ˜‰πŸš€πŸ’•

This one is DEFINITELY my other favorite, this is the “Grey Goose” lip cream. And by favorite, I mean I am going insane over it. This Liquid Lip Hybrid is sure to turn heads everywhere you go. Seriously, just look at this shade!!! It is a very modern, unique stone color. I know for a fact I am going to be wearing this 24/7, Lol! It is just an extremely sophisticated and well rounded shade, something we have yet to see from high end brands like MAC and JStar Cosmetics. If you are a fan of grey, greige, violet greys ANYTHING cool grey toned- you must try “Grey Goose.” You’re gonna be addicted to this one ❀️❀️❀️ Somebody call Alchoholics Anonymous! 😡

Here I am showing you her beautiful Black Liquid Lip Cream paired up with the Natured Beauty “Grey Goose” lip cream. This black shade is literally black as black as black can be! πŸ˜„ It’s an amazing formula too, because it DOES NOT stain or get stuck deep in your lip creases, like most black and dark red/purple liquid lippies tend to do. Anyways, I wanted to show you what creative things you could do with the black. Like a grey and black ombre effect! Or any color for that matter! The options are endless with Natured Beauty’s Liquid Lip Creams & Hybrids πŸ•ΈπŸŒšπŸ•Έ Love this color so so much, it’s a very easy black to work with which can be hard to find in liquid lipsticks. Easy to wipe away mistakes, hydrating to your lips and no dark staining at all! 


Please do go check out Philicia’s shop here: Natured Beauty LLC! Pick out something you like and try it out for yourself- you won’t be dissapointed! These products are beautiful, good for you and made with love & care πŸŒΏπŸ’„πŸŒΏ

Thanks for reading babes! I hope you liked this post, leave comments & thoughts for me πŸ™ƒ

Natured Beauty Lip Products Review! ❀️

Hi ladies! 😍❀️ Hope you all had a fabulous easter holiday.πŸ’πŸ° I am back to share with you all a brand a recently discovered on my favorite place to find new and amazing makeup brands, Etsy.com. This time the brand is called Natured Beauty. The owner Philicia was kind enough to send me some of her products to review and test out for her! She is such a sweetheart and so amazingly talented, you are just going to love her products. ❀️ Please keep reading if you want to know more about this awesome new cosmetics brand!

Let’s get started! Philicia has been quite the cosmetics scientist if you ask me. Her shop is full of a beautiful variety of lippies, glosses and laquers and even eyeshadow that are all humane/not tested on animals- which is so important to me πŸ‘πŸΌ We are going to be covering lippies and gloss/laquer today πŸ’‹β€οΈ I’ll have more products and more colors from Natured Beauty to show you in the near future!

  

First
: The Pastel Purple Lippie $3.00 USD ea.

  

  
When I saw this in my package the first thing I thought of was “Koala” by ColourPop Cosmetics. This is pretty much a dupe just not in liquid form. I am a huge fan of matte lilac lip shades, and this lipstick formula is PERFECT. It is so opaque and creamy, the texture of these lippies are comfortable and not over-drying like many matte lip products are known to be. Not to mention this shade is a perfectly balanced pastel lilac color, and I guarantee it would look fantastic on any complexion!

Second
: The Bright Lime Green Lippie $3.00 USD ea.

  
I adore all the bright and untraditional lip shades. They are so much fun and no doubt save the day when you have a costume party, concert or music festival to go to- or maybe when you’re just feeling bold & fierce and want the world to know it! (AKA my face in the pic above lol) πŸ’š This shade has all the same great qualities as her other lippies; It’s a tangy lime green tone that will compliment most skin colors & complexions, it’s super creamy and has great color payoff, not drying at all, velvety matte texture and it’s wearability is great. Stays put on your lips, and not on your teeth! β€οΈπŸ’‹β€οΈ

Third
: The Lemonade Pop Bright Yellow Lippie $3.00 USD ea.

  

When I first pulled this out of my Natured Beauty package, I was like, “How on earth is this going to show up on my light skin? I may need to use a lip primer first…” Boy, was I wrong! Philicia put a little extra magic into this one, since yellow is such a light color as it is, and she made it super opaque and bright as the sun itself! 🌟 I really love this shade, it is so fun and bright while being a lighter pastel at the same time. Perfect for clubbing, concerts and festivals and everything in between. Get your party on with this poppin’ lemonade yellow lippie! πŸ’›

Fourth: The Pastel Orange Lippie $3.00 USD ea.

  

In the tube, this shade looks like it would be a darker adobe/clay orange color when applied. But to my surprise, it is the absolute prettiest light peachy orange shade. I would compare it to MAC’s ‘sushi kiss’ or ‘sweet and sour.’ I just applied a tiny bit of gloss over this last lip swatch to show you that you can easily make any of these matte colors shine, with only a little gloss!

Lastly
: The Cosmic Purple Lip Gloss $3.00 USD ea.


These are so fun to use! πŸ’œ I would call these a hybrid between Lip gloss and Lip tars (if you are familiar with those), although they are called glosses in Natured Beauty’s shop. They are thicker/heavier than a traditional gloss and have extreme shine & hydrating qualities πŸ˜‰ They are also more opaque and show off the true color more vibrantly than a regular gloss would. Regardless, these are beautifully made and apply wonderfully with a lip brush! I also discovered that using the Pastel Purple Lippie beneath and applying a little Cosmic Purple Gloss on top, makes for a stunning galactic type of combination!

Check out some of these other gloss shades she is offering +more in her shop!…
  

My overall thoughts: Every product I reviewed for you today I really adore, honestly. I am always looking for new cosmetic brands that deserve to be recognized and this is another one of those awesome smaller brands! These lipsticks are just as nice as my MACs, but I honestly like the wearability of Natured Beauty’s lippies much better. I can smile, talk and drink without eating my weight in lipstick, which I really appreciate and enjoy more than anything. I have been in search of a lippie that stays put, looks great and is affordable and girls, I found it! πŸ˜πŸ’„The lip gloss is stunning, it makes my lips look like I dipped them in purple space honey. Just look at that picture above!! πŸ˜‰ So luxurious, all of it. Please, go check out Natured Beauty’s Etsy shop HERE!
Thanks for reading babes, hope you enjoyed! Leave comments and thoughts for me! Stay tuned for more reviews for Natured Beauty and other brands i’ve discovered as well! ❀️

New Series: Cokebottle Waist Training With Tami πŸ’•πŸ’–πŸ’•

Hi girls! Today I will be discussing a pretty popular trend going on in this day and age. Some/most of you have probably seen pictures on instagram, or heard of the fad in the magazines- Waist Training. Kim K started using the Ane Chery trainer not too long ago and now her and her sisters have been sporting them at the gym & while they’re out and about, snapping tiny-waisted pictures that have gone viral on insta. Some other celebs have fallen in love with the jaw dropping results as well.. Such as: Jessica Alba, Jwoww, Kylie Jenner, Lily James, Amber Rose, Snookie & Kim Zociak and more. Clearly these celebs have seen a difference after wearing the Β trainers, otherwise they wouldn’t bother forcing themselves into these itty bitty little things. And we have seen the differences for ourselves in those “too tiny to be true” photos all over the web! Guess who jumped on the bandwagon? That’s right, me! I’m gonna take you through a long journey consisting of what changes I noticed and how long it took to notice them, how I feel about waist training overall, the pros and cons, if it’s dangerous, what it baisically does to your body etc..! So ladies; if any of you have been or are curious to get to know more about training your waist, please do keep reading and feel free to ask any questions in my comments! 😘❀️ Also, I wanted to say that I personally think all shapes and sizes are beautiful. The reason I wanted to do this post is for people who have heard of this and may have been interested in it like I am so they can learn more about it. If you are uninterested in all of this please do not continue reading!

So I decided to go ahead and order the “Official Kim K Sport Three Row Hook Trainer” $70.00 USD HERE. by Ane Chery off of Bombshell Bunny Curve’s website. She has been spotted wearing this exact same trainer in the color blue, so obviously that’s the way to go to make sure you get one that is super effective & not a cheap chinese knock off that wont last and wont be as durable. They also offer a Sport Two Row Hook Trainer, which is giving you one less row to cinch your waist baisically. I chose the three row so I could get how you say, more bang for my buck.πŸ’Έ When it says Sport, it means the material is stretchy enough for you to wear to work, to the gym & even to bed. You can bend over and side to side with slight difficulty. Making this a great choice if you workout often or spend a lot of time on your feet at work/home. Β 


Now, above is a photo of me wearing my Purple Sport 3 Row Trainer on day #1. On their website, they have a size chart to help you determine the perfect size to buy for you. They say do notΒ order a size smaller because they run small as is. I ordered the size small, and was unsure after I had ordered it. Once out of the bag I was even more doubtful, but it fits perfectly despite how tiny it looked. I have extra wide hip bones and large breasts so cinching my waist will be extremley noticable if I continue to do it. If you can get it on with difficulty, and still be able to breathe it is the right size for you. I’m not joking about getting in on with difficulty, it’s gonna be tough at first. You may need another person to help. But you should not be in physical pain at all. I can just shove one finger in between my trainer and rib cage, I think if you can’t do that or if you can fit two, it mat be way too small or big for you to work effectively and safely. If you order from bombshell bunny curves, they allow one size exchange incase you buy the wrong size. Other sites do not offer exchanges.

Another option that Bombshell Bunny Curves offers you is the “Aggressive Latex Trainer.” $72.00 USD- HEREΒ This trainer is not considered Sport/Active, and will not allow as much free mobility as the Sport does. It is also slightly longer and covers more of your torso maing for a tighter fit. I did not purchase this one, so I cannot give you my honest opinion about it. What I can tell you is that it’s much harder to put on, it’s more uncomfortable to be in, you won’t want to wear it as often, but results are faster & more aggresive. (Gathered from extensive research) If you wanted to, you could go with their bundle package that includes one three row active trainer and one three row aggresive latex trainer HERE for $130.00 USD. But I did not see the point in this, from reviews and research it seems like the sport gives just as noticible & quick results. πŸ‘πŸΌ

Here is a sport trainer on the Left, and an Aggressive Latex on the Right. Sport comes in many colors/patterns (black, pink, purple, blue, cheetah etc.) While the latex comes only in black.

(Bombshell Bunny Curves Pics)

So now onto the typical FAQ’s about waist training…

How long do I need to wear my trainer each day to see results?Β 

It is stated that you should be wearing your waist trainer 6-8 hours a day. Some women will wear them when they sleep as well to get it to ‘work faster’, but I would not do this personally. I wear it mon-fri from 7am-4pm which is 9 hours a day. Then on weekends I will wear it for 4 hours each day. Also i’ll put it on for any and all workout time because it strengthens your core and tightens your stomache muscles while your exercising, making the noticable results more long term.

Will it harm my organs?Β 

No. Waist training will not harm or damage your organs so long as you take it step by step and you don’t try to force yourself into a size that’s way too small for you… You can’t rush this otherwise you can hurt yourself. Also, being cautious while exercising is important. You do not want to hurt yourself or push yourself too hard while wearing a trainer. Your ribcage and insides are being trained to sit in a more feminine, appealing, & tighter knit fashion. Not much different from corsets back in the day.


Depicted above is a trained waist on the left, and an untrained waist on the right.

I’m impatient, How long untill I will start to see the results?

Eveyone will notice a smaller waist once you physically put on your trainer at first. It gives you a cinched hourglass figure constantly while it’s on. Some will see results without their trainer off, within the first 2-4 weeks. Some in months. It depends on your body type and over health and condition when you first begin. It will take longer for really untrained tummies, and not so long for those who are already somewhat shapely and fit.

Can I wear this under a dress to make me look thinner for example?

Yes! The sport trainer I have is virtually undetectable beneath my clothes. I usually wear pretty form fitting items. You should have no trouble wearing it under a dress, it will give you a lovely curvy shape.

What is it supposed to feel like?

Putting on your trainer for the first time will seem like a difficult task. The sensation you should be feeling once it is all hooked up is: as if you were sucking in your stomache to the point of getting cramps. If you feel anything other than a cramping/tight held-in sensation, something is wrong and you could possibly harm yourself. There should be no light headedness, no rib, hip or back pain, no difficulty breathing, no bruises after removing it. Know the difference between discomfort and pain. Discomfort is totally normal, pain is not. After wearing it for the first 4 hours, your back/ribs may feel a bit restless or tense/cramped. Take deep breathes, feeling your ribcage expand, and arch your back while reaching up towards the sky into a nice strecth- this should help relieve that unusual feeling. Power through this because it is just the necessary adjustments/training your waist is adapting to. After the first week or so you will not experience as much discomfort after wearing it for long periods of time.

Am I limited to only standing & exercising?

Of course not! Many girls say they can drive, cook, clean house and shop till they drop while wearing their trainers. It all depends on your comfort level with said activity.

Why can’t I sit down normally while wearing my trainer?

Waist trainers force-fix posture. It is going to force you to stand and sit straight if you want to be comfortable wearing it. If your trainer is completely hooked, and you have real difficulty sitting down, unbutton the last three lower hooks and see if it feels better. 😁

Overall Impression:

I am in love and so enthused to continue this process. I have heard it helps back pain over time, which would really benefit me since I have 4 herniated discs in my lower back. It feels wonderful when it’s on, I like the seriously tight sensation it makes my tummy feel nice and flat and I can already tell it’s working. I am going to check back in with you guys about this series, with before and after photos when I hit row 2!

I hope you guys enjoyed this post, feel free to leave comments/questions for me! Love you all 😘❀️

Ipsy Glam Bag Review 2016! πŸ’–

Hi dolls! I missed you! I haven’t talked to you sweeties in a while. I am so sorry I have neglected my blogging, just started a second job and i’m working 40 + hours a week now and I just haven’t had time to come on here and type my fingers off.. πŸ˜₯ I truly apologize girls, and I am going to seriously get back onto my precious beauty blog and bring you guys more stuff to read and tutorials to try, new brandsΒ to fall in love with, all of that great beautiful stuff! πŸ‘„ I really hope you all understand and will keep looking into my blog every once and while to check for new posts! Today, I recieved my Ipsy Feb 2016 glambag. So it was a perfect way to motivate me to sit my butt down and blog.

Let’s get started!


The first two items I want to review with you beauties is the SMASHBOX photo finish primer oil & a gorgeous naked cosmetics mica loose pigment shadow in “Sierra Nevada” that I recieved.



The mineral eyeshadow from naked cosmetics has a beautiful shimmer and velvety feel to it. It is super easy to apply and shows up nice and pigmented on the first swipe. It is full of beautiful sparkels & shine that do not show up truly in the picture above.. But this is a very dreamy, earth tone, light catching mocha brown shade. I am in love. Perfect for everyday glam. πŸ’•


As for the SMASHBOX photo finish primer oil, this is pretty much a product based soley for dry skin. I have really healthy normal skin that is dewy- just mildly moist but not dry whatsoever, so unfortunately I can’t use this nice product. I can tell by the crazy slick & typical oily consistency that it wont sit well with my skin, so I am not even gonna risk it. Other women who have dry skin in need of some moisture; this product claims to reduce the appearance of fine lines caused by dryness, increase moisture in 4 weeks, and creates an ideal canvas for applying makeup as well. So this just might work perfectly for you! 😁

Next up, I was sent a mini Vintage by Jessica Liebeskind lipgloss in the shade “Pink Sequin,” and a pink Luxie flat definer shadow brush.


The gloss:Β 

  • Β Smells cheap
  • Tastes strange
  • Gritty texture

Other than these unwanted traits, it’s a gorgeous pretty light pink champagne color. It’s a shame I wont be using it becuase of it’s noticable cheap quality and scent.

The brush:

  • Gorgeous pink handle
  • Very precise flat tip
  • No loose hairs at all

This seems to be a really great quality brush, always love recieving new ones to play with! πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ’• Thanks Ipsy!


The last product I was sent is this Perfectly Posh- Best Face Forever Pepermint, Grapefruit and Aloe Vera Exfoliating Face Mask. This mask seriously smells minty and incredibly refreshing, it has large exfoliating sugar grains that definitely gets the job done when it comes to shaving off all those lame dead skin cells revealing new, soft and vibrantly healthy appearing skin. I like the combonation of the pepermint and aloe vera, it makes for a very soothing combination and spa-like experience! πŸ’†πŸ» I am giving this face wash product a chance, even though these normally turn me off.

Thanks for reading babes, missed you all so much! 😘 Leave me some comments and thoughts. I really hope to hear from some of you. Untill next time ladies! πŸ’‹

Quick Ipsy December Glambag Review!

Hello again all! ❀ I received my lovely little pink bag in the mail today, so you know what that means… Review time! πŸ˜€

The little card is so adorableΒ it has all the famous youtubers on it but in little cutesy drawings! I really don’t read these anymore though, because they always mislead me. So let’s just get right into it!

FullSizeRender (36)

FullSizeRender (24)

First off we have this sweet little teeny tiny Fomula X Nail Polish, in a gorgeous shimmery champagne golden shade called “Revved Up”. I’ve heard great things about Fomula X and i’m excited to try it because i do not own any colors byΒ this brand. I especially like this color for the upcoming Holiday ❀ Did any of you get a different shade?

FullSizeRender (27)

The next few items i’ll cover now. Starting off with the Anti Aging Lip & Hand Polish by Jersey Shore Spa in the scent “Vanilla Bean.”

Here i squeezed a little out for you to see the texture & consistency. It clearly has a very abrasive exfoliating quality to it, with large sugar crystals and also nice hydrating characteristics because of the jojoba oil you can see draining off. I have been in dire need of a great lip polish in these colder months here in AZ. So i was VERY excited to see this, and since i plan on only using this on my lips the deluxe sample size will last me FOREVER! I also love the smell, it’s more of a natural Vanilla Bean scent than the typical artificial vanilla cake smell. Thank you Ipsy! ❀ You saved my lips!

Next up we have the two lip products i was sent!

Left: Pacifica Power of Love Vegan Lipstick in ‘Nudie Red’

Right: Model Co Illusion Lip Liner Pencil in a Mauvey/Brown Shade

First off i would like to say if you want to see a lip swatch of these two products, check out my last post because i used them together to create a beautiful natural lip! I absolutely LOVE the texture of both of these, they glide on your lip and are super creamy and opaque. I usually would prefer if Ipsy sent me brighter colors, but these are the perfect nude duo, and i am so happy these were sent to me. Great lip products! ❀ These are both FULL SIZE also!

And lastly, we have the dreaded hair care sample:

IMG_0860

If you read my Ipsy reviews you know that i am never too happy when i get a heavy glambag only to crack it open and find a big ole’ tube of hair product or hand lotion 😦 I like coconut but i don’t need these types of samples as i already have a pretty religious hair ceremony. LOL. Passing this item off to a friend.

And that’s all for my Ipsy Glambag! I really hope you all enjoyed this review, let me know what you got in YOUR bag down below! ❀ Love you all! πŸ™‚ Remember to follow my instagram and youtube channel if you haven’t already!

November Ipsy Bag 2015! <3

Hi beautiful people! Back from vacation, and it was more than wonderful. Spent a lot of my time relaxing in the deluxe room, and also grabbed some drinks with Bae at the casino. They also had a big beautiful pool and a full service spa/nail salon ❀ But anywhooo, i’m back to blogging and i came home to an Ipsy Bag! So clearly i had to post about it, let’s get right into it..

IMG_0196

This month’s theme was Beauty Blast: “Your November Glam Bag is a universe of brilliant beauties. Twinkle, twinkle, darling. It’s time to light up the sky.”

The girls on this card are absolutely beautiful, both sporting super dramatic lip colors, metallic eyes, long lashes and winged liner. Once again, this card had me really excited to see what was inside. Now, the bag is so so so cute. I love science, space and nebula’s of all sorts, so this hit home with me before i even broke into it. πŸ™‚

FullSizeRender (12)

FullSizeRender (13)

The first item i picked up was this Jesse’s Girl Eye Shadow Primer. This was cool at first sight but when i swatched it, it felt way too liquidy for my liking. So unfortunately i wont be using this and will pass it on to a friend. Here is a swatch for you all to see..

FullSizeRender (9)

It is almost my exact skin tone, but like i said before i prefer thicker eyeshadow primers. I pretty much ONLY use Mally’s Base Shadow. I definitely recommendΒ trying that one out if you are in search of a good one.

FullSizeRender (11)

The next item i was SO excited about was this bright green lipstick. Fran Wilson MOODMatcher, is not a green lipstick but a clear one that adjusts to your body and creates a color by itself. I was dissapointed, i actuallyΒ wanted a green lipstick and i thought it really went with the outer space theme haha. So i’m not too happy about this one, it’s a neutral pink color which i have tons of. Here is a swatch for you all.

IMG_0203

This product is pretty nice and hydrating on the lips, it feels great and smooth so i probably will use this just as a moisturizer and for a little hint of color for a simpler look for work or going out doing errands etc.

FullSizeRender (10)

The next item was a simple sleek eyeshadow brush. I will definitely be using this, i can never have enough brushes! Especially shadow brushes.

Now we have be a bombshell eye liner in “wild child.” Which is just black haha. It is okay, the swatch wasn’t very opaque or bold but i might use this for my waterline. Here’s a swatch..

Mini Sephora HAUL & DETOX WATER! <3

Hi all of you beautiful people! πŸ˜€ I am here today to share with you what i just received on my front porch! A box from Sephora, filled with some nice goodies i have been DYING to try! Let’s get right into it ❀

IMG_0112

First up we have a birthday gift from Sephora, a NARS Satin Lip Pencil duo. I was so excited when they let me chose my gift, this obviously caught my eye and i picked this one without hesitation because i LOVE NARS! Who doesn’t? Let me show you the colors swatched on my arm πŸ™‚

Next up we have the Tarteist Clay Paint Liner & Liner Brush.

This was an impulsive buy for me, i was looking through Sephora’s “liner” section, because i am running VERY low on my usual Almay Liquid Liner that is pretty much all i use on myself. I looked up some reviews, i watched the application video, and i got super duper excited. This product is BEAUTIFUL, it applies extremely clean and smooth and the brush that came with it is PERFECT for this formula. Once applied it has the look of a liquid liner, very similar to the one i always use! It also dries just like a liquid liner, from the looks of my swatch, this stuff WONT be flaking, cracking, fading or smudging. Just let it dry completely before you sneeze hehe ;D

Let me show you my line…

This was with twoΒ smooth swipes of the brush. You can see here that it looks GORGEOUS, and very bold and black. Great pay off, I am so excited to start using this everyday, i may just never go back.. Sorry Almay! πŸ˜‰

Now we have an OCC Lip Tar-Stained Gloss set!

I was very excited to try these guys after hearing all of the wonderful reviews on them. I also heard they were quite messy during application, but i just had to purchase them. I have NEVER been into lip palettes, or any lip product that requires a finger/brush to apply. I definitely prefer lipsticks. BUT, i am super happy it’s a very cute little set and these shades are SOΒ me! So let’s try them out!

The first two i showed applied how i would have expected them to, judging by the bold pictures on the package and other peoples detailed reviews. Unfortunately, my favorite purple lip tar ended up being my LEAST favorite, because it was not opaque at allΒ and i wasted a lot of product trying to layer it on. SO, i would say go ahead andΒ buy this set on Sephora’s website while you can. Two of them behave really nicely on the lip and have great color pay off, only one was a dud. But even though the purple one wasn’t opaque, it still looks nice it just looks like a transparent/purple gloss. These smell very very minty.

The next item i bought was a pack of purple shade ombre bobby pins! I thought these were pretty cute and i loved that they did the shade transitions, you could put the different colors right next to each other wherever you are pinning your hair and it would be really cute ;D Pretty sweet and had different colors choices as well.

That’s all for the haul! πŸ˜‰ Now i have an awesome detox water recipe to share with you all, i used oranges, strawberries and limes.

I thought this really turned out good and tasted awesome the second and third day. I decided i should share it with you ❀

So, i started out by slicing up one orange very thinly, and saved about half of it to squeeze the fresh juice into the bottom of my pitcher. Next, i rolled a lime on my counter top to get the juices flowin’, then i sliced that up thinly and saved less than i did for the orange and squeezed it into my pitcher. After that i added most of that container of strawberries except for about 10, sliced thin. With long wooden spoon i lightly smashed the ingredients in the bottom. After that i added enough water to fill my pitcher not completely to the top. Lastly i mixed it thoroughly, added water and ice cubes, and popped it in the fridge! πŸ™‚ It takes a day for the flavor to hint the water, and when it does you will be pleased! I loved this and came up with it while i was at the grocery store shopping, super duper simple and good for you drink that has some awesome flavor. You should give it a go!

I am so unbelievably happy with these ultra matte lip colors and the super shock shadows, the lip colors are so pigmented and the doe foot applicator makes for super easy and precise lines, no lipliner needed for these guys. I wouldn’t even bother. 😁 The shadows formula is just too awesome, it feels like VELVET to the touch, the shimmer is so beautiful and sparkly in the light (very attention grabbing), a little goes a long way and the colors are just SO vibrant and long lasting on your lid! A+++! I have been wearing these shadows as a beautiful accessory.. πŸ˜πŸ’˜ I created a stunning strawberry lemonade type look today using the super shock shadows in “animal” (ft. in part 1) and “glowstix” (part 2). Let me show you really quick!

SO in love πŸ’žπŸ’žπŸ’ž They are so buildable and blendable! Let me show you the colors one by one.
