DRUGSTORE GOODIES

I've been searching for the new Milani Matte lipsticks and blushes for a while and finally found them at my local Walgreens the other day. Milani is one of my favorite brands so I was excited to see some new  products from them, especially if they're matte.

First up are the Matte Lipsticks. There were 8 to choose from but I just grabbed three for now. These lipsticks are creamy and feel amazing on the lips compared to other matte formulas that I've tried in the past.







I also grabbed two of the new Matte Blushes as well. There were three in the display but i only purchased two. These have such great pigmentation to them and they blend like a dream. They are a tad on the powdery side but nothing that can't be fixed. I think these are one of the better formulas of blush at the drugstore and I hope they come out with more colors in the future.








Have you picked up any of these products?

I found these bad boys at Target the other day and I just about jumped for joy. I absolutely love matte lips and I'm glad we bow have more drugstores options.  I restrained myself from buying the whole collection and limited myself to three.


Retail: $5.49 at Target

HIGH END QUALITY AT THE DRUGSTORE?

I love the brand Milani, but one of the things that has never done it for me was their eyeshadows. I just have never found a formula that has worked well on me and with there being so many other great shadows at the drugstore I always gravitated towards other brands. But I saw on NouveauCheap (who I adore) that Milani had released new Gel Powder Eyeshadows. This sparked my interest so I ran to my local Walgreens and I spotted the whole untouched display. I ended up purchasing five shades in total and I am OBSESSED. These shadows feel like nothing at the drugstore currently. The formula kind of reminds me of the MAC In Extra Dimension formula, how it feels creamy but the product itself is a powder. The pigmentation of these products is insane. One swipe and you get intense color. Let's get to the pictures!








Are you as excited as I am about these shadows? 

Let's be honest, I will probably have them all soon. 

Retail: $4.29 at Walgreens/CVS

NEW LOREAL GOODNESS

There have been so many new releases from the drugstore lately that I have been struggling to keep up! I found two new displays from Loreal at my local Walgreens the other evening so I picked up a few products and I am in love with them.

First up is the Glossy Balms. These are Loreals version of the ever so popular chubby lip pencil. I love these pencils. They are super creamy and moisturizing on the lips while delivering a beautiful pop of color. I had for restrain myself and only pick up three but I am so impressed with these that I definitely see myself purchasing more in the future.  These pencils last about 3 hours on the lips before a touch up is needed but they feel so good that I don't mind applying more. the gloss lasts throughout the whole wear and there is no stain left behind, at least with the colors I've tried. There were so many beautiful shades for this fall but I picked up three of the more summery shades to try first. 
Retail: $5.99 at Target and drugstores. They will probably be a little more pricey at drugstores.





210 Ginger Candy
A beautiful peachy nude.







240 Pink Me Up
A beautiful pinky magenta color.







220 Innocent Coral
A punchy orangey coral color. 
This will be my summer staple.







I also found the new Visible Lift Blur Blushes. These are fabulous! They have that silicone primer feeing on the skin but they deposit the perfect flush of color that lasts all day long. This product makes your skin feel so soft and it kind of blurs out your imperfections and gives the skin an airbrushed appearance, as the name suggests.
Retail: $11.99 at Target and drugstores

501 Soft Peach






503 Soft Berry
This gives that perfect rosy flash to the cheeks like you been running around outside. Love it!






I am very impressed with the new offerings from Loreal lately. 

Have you tried any of their products? Let me know what you think!
