Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter - Cotton Candy, Peach Parfait, Sugar Plum, Berry Smoothie

Hey, Everybody!

Today I have a review & swatches of Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butters. I have them in 4 shades { Cotton Candy, Peach Parfait, Berry Smoothie, and Sugar Plum }

From left to right: Sugar Plum, Berry Smoothie, Peach Parfait, Cotton Candy

This week shoppers drug mart had them on sale, B1G1 Free so I decided to pick up a few and give them a try, and I am super glad I did, their great!!

They have the consistency of a tinted lip balm but they are very pigmented, and very hydrating as well.

The Balm cosmetics: Nude 'Tude Palette & Schwing black liquid eyeliner

Hey, Everybody!

I hope everybody is having a great week! I know I am.. I had my last midterm before the reading break AND i received 2 packages that i've been waiting on (1 more to come!!) an Elf package and my Hautelook package!

I'm sure a lot of you already know that about a month ago The Balm was on Hautelook and I just could not resist. I had heard such great things about the Nude 'Tude palette that I had to give it a try.

first off I have to say they are SO pigmented!! I swatched all on my arm about 30 minutes ago and they won't budge, even if I try to wipe them off with my finger.

Schwing liquid eyeliner & the Nude 'Tude palette


Isn't the packaging so cute?
This liner is very, very pigmented but did take some time to dry








'sassy' is a perfect highlight colour for under your brow bone and although 'selfish' looks very dark in the photo it would work great as an every day colour 


the colour 'serious' is such a richly pigmented black that it looks exactly like a pencil eyeliner when applied to your lash line 

Prices: 
  • Nude 'Tude palette - $36 (originally) I paid only $18 on Hautelook
  • Schwing black liquid eyeliner - $17 (originally)  I only paid $8 
Overall, I would definitely recommend both of these products, two thumbs up from me! 

Love,

Sigma Haul!!

I am so so so so so excited because my SIGMA products came!!! (as you can see from the title)

For the past few months i've been dreamingly visiting sigma's website and putting all of the things that I would love to have into the cart,  and constantly watching videos of Youtube guru's ranting about how great they are so last week I said, "what the heck, why not?!" and went for it. I bought two brushes; the F80 flat top kabuki brush, and the F40 large angled contour brush. And just let me say this.... I am never turning back! Both brushes are so incredibly soft, feel very durable, and look extremely professional.



 Before I ever used this brush to apply my Maybelline dream smooth mousse foundation I thought the foundation just wasn't too great, until I used the F80, it was like I was using a totally different foundation than ever before. The look that you get after using this brush is such a flawless and airbrushed look, it's unbelievable. 
The F40 is absolutely amazing for both contouring and applying blush, it is just the right size to fit into the arch of your cheek to contour, and the perfect size to apply your blush



When you spend $30 or more on their website you get a free gift with your purchase. My free gift was a cute little eye shadow from their Dare palette in the shade Grasp. The colour pay off is great and it's very blend able and feels really creamy

If anybody is thinking about buying Sigma brushes I would definitely suggest you do it because you will NOT be disappointed! 

Love,
