Today officially marks the beginning of my one month makeup no-buy! It’s going to be hard but I can do it! I’ll just have to busy myself with other things… but on to the ColourPop Ultra Matte Lip in Solow ($6.00). On a good day, this lippie works for me. The key is not to be lazy about it. This one…

Happy Labor Day! It’s quite appropriate to talk about ColourPop Ultra Matte Lipstick in Mars because it has been very laborious to get this lipstick to work for me. Eventually, I gave up on it. Which is a shame because the color is fantastic. You will see from the lip swatches how terrible this experience was for me. It reminded…

I have appeared on my Instagram many times with the Kat Von D. Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in Double Dare ($20.00) and figured it’s probably time to give it a review! Kat Von D. Everlasting Liquid Lipstick Double Dare

I don’t typically like surprises, but I do like happy accidents 🙂 ColourPop Tulle from their Ultra Matte liquid lipstick line is one of those happy accidents. Out of the batch I ordered, I thought I would like this one the least, but I have literally been reaching for it more than any other lippie this past week or so. …

ColourPop released a line of liquid lipsticks about a month ago ($6.00). Silly me thought I could just go on their website and stock up on the day of release, but I was met with very slow and unresponsive servers. After about 2 hours of trying to check out, I gave up. The next morning I woke up to check…

I have been eyeing the shade Ayesha from Kat Von D’s liquid lipstick line ($20.00). The color (described as a rich lavender) is so unlike anything I would have ever thought of wearing, but the more I looked at it, the more I wondered if I could pull it off… Sooo I went to Sephora to test it out. What do you…

These babies are part of the Birchbox x Stila collaboration, in a kit called Stila Look at Me ($20.00). I have wanted to try out the Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipsticks forever, but the Summer colors just looked so bright, I was kind of scared to invest in them. So when I came across this little Birchbox trio, it was like…

I was so excited for the launch of the new colors of the Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks ($20.00). After careful examination of the colors on the Sephora website and stalking the Kat Von D Beauty instagram, I decided on Mother and Double Dare (review to come). Mother is described as a dusty mauve pink but on me it’s…

The Kat Von D. Metal Crush Eyeshadows ($21.00) are brand new, highly pigmented, metallic eyeshadows. I was so distracted by the launch of her newest shades of liquid lipstick, I had no idea eyeshadows were accompanying them. I went into Sephora to see what I could see, and was very surprised when I saw these. A single rub of this…

I’ve found it. The perfect nude lip. Yes, I said it; perfect. For someone my skin tone, of course. All nude lips are not made equal. For me, they usually have to be a pinkish nude to work, but this here just blends right in to the rest of my skin without looking brown. My gosh… all hail MAKE UP…

On my liquid lipstick binge, I happened to come across this here Lip Couture in Summer Bliss from a company called LA Splash Cosmetics. After really trying to make this work, I wish I had better news.

The Ciate Liquid Velvet Lip Slick in Smitten ($18) is exactly similar to it’s sister I recently reviewed, Swoon in quality and I thought I would show you all what this looks like. This color however, did not go on streaky to my delight and showed up quite vividly on my skin. I certainly had to apply then blot to…

There’s a saying that goes, “do one thing and do it well.” Well that certainly doesn’t apply to Ciaté. When I found out they were releasing a line of makeup at Sephora, other than nail polish, which included a liquid lipstick (my current obsession right now), I got excited. So excited, I ordered right away! I chose the Liquid Velvet Matte Lip…
