At Gen Beauty 2017 I got a few minis of the Ciate Liquid Velvet Lipsticks. I know Ciate mostly from nail polishes, but they have been breaking into the makeup world in a BIG way. Have you seen their glitter flips??? They are definitely on my to-buy list! Anyways, I thought I would show you how these liquid velvet lipsticks perform!
First Impressions: Kat Von D Everlasting Glimmer Veil
Hi folks! I have a quick first impression of the new Kat Von D Glimmer Veils which were recently released online at Sephora. These puppies aren’t in store yet and will be released at Sephora on September 8. At IMATS last weekend (recap and haul can be found here), I managed to get my hands on two of the colours Rocker (described as a copper with gold glimmer) and Razzle (magenta with pink glitter).
Review: Esqido Mink Lashes and Companion Glue
Hello folks! It’s been a bit but I’m back! Work’s been busy and then I was on vacation (which I hope to have a post up soon about). Anyways, today I have a review of Esqido Mink Lashes and their companion lash glue.
Let me just say my lashes ain’t cute. They are thin, point straight down and don’t hold mascara. A trifecta of terrible proportions. I was excited when Esqido reached out just because false lashes are literally the ONLY way for me to get any definition in my lashes. With this being said though, I’m not an expert at application so I was curious to see how they would work out.
Review: THEFACESHOP Chia Seed Skincare Line
Hello!! I’ve had so much skincare I’ve been trying out lately, and here’s a collection to add to that! THEFACESHOP has a couple of collections, and months ago I was sent the Chia Seed line to try out. I was very excited to try this because it’s made for normal-oily skin!
Review: Love, BITE Lip Kit
As many of you know, BITE is my jam. I LOVE BITE! They recently shared one of my photos on Instagram (I think mistakenly twice) and I died. The photo was of the Love, BITE kit which contains two Multisticks, a Prismatic Pearl Creme Lip Gloss, and a mini mirror. Someone asked for swatches so here we go!
First Impressions: Lancome Matte Shaker
This is a bit of an unexpected post as I was planning just to use this on Instagram. On the weekend I redeemed some of my Shoppers Drug Mart Optimum Points for the new Lancome Matte Shaker in Pink Power. I’ve been hearing so many great things about this and was excited to finally give it a go!
Review: Moor Spa Skincare Items
With summer weather arriving with a wham, season changes always makes me want to change up my routine. Or at least add a couple of items here and there to mix it up a bit. Moor Spa recently reached out, giving me the opportunity to try out a few of their products! I decided to pick a couple items that either seemed ‘different’ or ones that I didn’t have a lot of (aka no face masks)!
First Impressions: Full Face of Foil Samples
Hi friends! Anyone else have an ever expanding collection of foil samples? Mine are definitely getting unruly, so I thought I would try something fun. I noticed that I had the right samples to do a full face, so I thought I would give it a try. When I use foil samples I usually use them one at a time (when I remember). This seemed like a good way to cut down on my samples but also try some new products all at once.
Review: Mary Kay Beauty That Counts – Baked Cheek Powder
Mary Kay recently came out with two limited edition cheek powders in support of their Beauty that Counts campaign. Both powders are super cute in a heart-shaped compact. I’ll show you some swatches along with a bit about the charity that these products support.
Brand Collection: Maybelline New York
A staple brand in the drugstore is Maybelline New York. They carry everything and are well known for their foundation and mascara. I mentioned recently that I really need to get back to the drugstore and try out some products. ChickAdvisor must have heard my calls cause I recently got chosen to try out a Product Review Club opportunity with Maybelline.
