I'm back! I figured out my camera issues, thank god. So I'm here to show you some stuff I've bought at the drugstore over the past couple weeks. Some hits and some misses in here! Click below to see :)

Easy Bright Blue Liner

 

Hi there! It's been so long since I've posted an actual eye look, and I've really been anxious to! I went to Sephora to exchange a product the other day and walked out with the same product and this new bright blue liner. It's Urban Decays 24/7 liner in Electric. It. Is. Beautiful! I know this look has been done so many times by so many people, but I'm really enjoying it and thought you might like to see how I did it! It includes a mini review on the liner too :) I didn't take pictures of the actual steps, but it's very simple. So here we go!

Products used: Urban Decay Naked Basics, 24/7 Pencil in Electric & Maybelline Great Lash in Teal Appeal.

I'm sure most of you are familiar with these liners, they're some of my favorites! I use Perversion everyday. Electric is a bright turquoise/teal color with a slight sheen to it. It glides on so easily. It stays put it my waterline, but regardless I always set it a powder on my lower or upper lashline.

 

Please excuse my brows, dear god.

- I started with a primed lid and blended Naked 2 above the crease.

- Next I took faint and blended it right over Naked 2.

- I applied crave all over my lid, then took a tiny bit on the tip of a blending brush and blended it into Faint.

- Highlighted with a matte white shadow. I could have blended this a bit more, meh.

- I heavily lined my lower lash line with Electric, bringing it into my inner corner also. I set it with a translucent powder.

- I applied falsies and black mascara to the top lashes, and Teal Appeal to the bottom lashes!

And that's it! easy but bold and fun! I really love this liner. I've only ever owned zero, perversion and whiskey 24/7 liners but now I think I'll venture out into the other colors! I picked mine up at Sephora for 19$.

I hope you all liked my post, and thank you so much for reading!!

Maybelline Color Elixir Review- Hibiscus Haven

 

Hi everyone! I have another lip product review for you, the new Maybelline Color Elixir by Colorsensational in Hibiscus Haven. Again I've let a few days slip by me without blogging and I don't like that! Time just gets away from me and I had all intentions of being super productive this morning and then a migraine struck! I told it to get lost I have an awesome review to write, and it put up a fight but I won. I'm rambling now because it's 1am and I should be sleeping.. Any way back to the product, I'm kind of obsessed with this. If you want to read my review on it, please click below!

Review: Maybelline "The Falsies Black Drama" Mascara

 

Hey lovelies! Today's post is a review on a new mascara, Maybelline The Falsies Black Drama. I am running low on my current favorite (L'Oreal Telescopic Shocking Extensions) and decided instead of repurchasing, I'd pick something new up.

Halloween FOTD

 

Hey ladies! Halloween was yesterday, and I didn't do anything. I rarely do on the actual day because I work. BUT, I always do some festive makeup look. This years is a little more tame than last years, I was really feeling the color purple. I've been posting a lot of face of the days lately, I just haven't had a ton of time to write up great posts. I'm hoping to have a couple reviews up in the next week! If you want to see the products I've used for this look, click below. :)

Maybelline Baby Lips Dr. Rescue Review.

Hi everyone! Today I wanted to do a little review on a product I've been loving lately. The new Maybelline Baby Lips Dr. Resuce Medicated balms. I own a ton of the other baby lips, but these are different.

Coral Crave

Just Peachy

Too Cool

These are the three that I own. I will probably end up buying more. These are a medicated lip balm that contain Menthol. So if that feeling or smell bothers you, I do not suggest them. It is quite strong. I love the cooling feeling the menthol provides and smell is comforting to me as well. Staying Power: I find these last just as long as the other baby lips do, about an hour. That may be a negative for some people but I reapply my lip balm constantly anyway. As far as pigmentation goes, Coral Crave is a sheer coral color. Just Peachy is a more opaque, nudeish color. Too Cool is just a clear balm.

During this cooler time of year, my lips get crazy dry. I always like to use a medicated lip balm. These are cute, which is always a plus. But they also work well for me too. I've been using them for just over a week and my lips are definitely a lot smoother and softer than before.

I know some people have mixed feeling on Baby Lips but I really enjoy them. For about 3 bucks a pop it's worth a try! These Dr. Rescue ones are by far, my favorite! I hope you enjoyed this review! Have you tried these?

Thanks so much for reading!
