NEW MILANI LIP PRODUCTS

I love Milani Cosmetics so when i saw there was new products releasing for 2014 ofcourse I had to check them out. 


Lip Intense: Pink Rave 
$6.49

"Satisfy your craving for shockingly intense, super-shiny, full lip color with Lip Intense Liquid Color. Lip Intense applies like a highshine gloss, but has the longevity and wear of a lipstick.  The sponge-tip applicator allows for a fast,easy, and precise application. Paraben-free."








This color is amazing. It feels comfortable on the lips and lasts all day long. 


Power Lip: Raspberry Tart, Mango Tango, Macaroon & Pink Lemonade
$6.49


"Power Lip Lasting & Moisturizing Gloss Stain combines the shine of a gloss with the long wear of a stain. When first applied it goes on like a high-shine gloss, and then wears to a rich stain that lasts. Formula cushions lips and provides a non-drying, comfortable wear.  Get the power of a bold lip in just one click! Paraben-free."


Mango Tango









Macaroon







Pink Lemonade 







 Raspberry Tart






These are great lip products as well. They stay glossy for about four hours until they start to fade. When they do fade it is evenly and definitely leave a stain behind. 

Brilliant Shine Lip Gloss: Luminous
$5.49

"Experience lip gloss that has rich color, extreme high shine, and comfortable lasting wear. Brilliant Shine Lip Gloss is moisturizing and non-tacky. The flexible sponge-tip applicator makes application easy. Paraben-free. "





This color is such a beautiful pinky gold duochrome. You NEED this. I can picture this on top of many different colors to add a beautiful sheen. 


All these products are available at CVS and wherever Milani is sold.

Swatch & Review: Too Faced Sweethearts Perfect Flush Blush: Something About Berry

This blush is so adorable and perfect with Valentine's Day coming up.


"Three perfect swatches of ultraflattering blush allow you to either swirl the colors together and apply or use more of one shade for a custom flush or highlight. This blush was developed with easy application and a no-fail color palette to take the guesswork out of creating a sweet, romantic flush. With a baked color formula— the same technology that allows it to truly work on all skintones—the blush can be applied as a beautiful buildable finish. "









This blush is beautiful when applied to the cheeks. It has such a stunning sheen to it so I like to use this as a blush topper on top of my matte blushes. This also can stand alone. 




The three colors swatched separately. 



And Together. 




If you have the Ulta %20 coupon that would be a great reason to get this gem. 


Retail: $30.00 at Ulta / Sephora

A DAMN GOOD NORDSTROM RACK FIND

I don't normally go to Nordstrom Rack on a regular basis but i always hear people getting good deals. So when I was close to one the other day I decided to pop in and I'm glad i did. There was a fairly large beauty section with brands like NYX, Stila, Essie, OPI, Ardell, and Urban Decay. I've had my eye on the Urban Decay Brow Box for years but always thought that $29.00 was a little more than I wanted to spend. So i was just browsing and I happened to rummage through a basket with some products and behold, I found the Urban Decay Brow Box in Honey Pot. So i looked at the price and it was $13.97. I gasped and scooped it up right away.





The packaging is so cute. I feel like I'm opening a treasure box each time i use it. The brow powders are the perfect colors for my brows. The combination of the powder and the wax makes for a brow that lasts all day. I am so excited about this find and I know i will be using this bad boy everyday. 






Get to your local Nordstrom Rack, they may just have this deal for you!

Swatch & Review: NYX Infinite Shadow Stick: Rose Gold

You know I can never turn down a product with the name rose gold. I knew i had to have this when I saw all the new NYX displays at my local Ulta this week. The color is absolutely beautiful and I can see this working well with all the gold and copper shadows in my collection. The shadow stick is very pigmented and once this color dries it's locked in place all day. I just might have to pick up more of these beauties.






Retail: $8.99 at Ulta & www.ulta.com

Swatch & Review: Mally Beauty High Shine Liquid Lipstick: Life is Fuchsia

I've seen Mally Beauty products on QVC now for years and they've always intrigued me but I just never pulled the trigger. I've always wanted to see the products in person before ordering so you can imagine my excitement when I saw a full display of Mally Beauty products at my local Ulta.
The first product I decided to try was the High Shine Liquid Lipstick. I chose the color Life is Fuchsia, a beautiful pink with shimmer.







This color is a little more sheer than I'd imagined for a liquid lipstick but I think it will be the perfect topper for all of the bright pink colors for spring/summer. Overall I am very happy with this lip color and I'd like to try another more fuller coverage color.


Retail: $20.00 at Ulta & www.ulta.com
