REVIEW: L.A GIRL GLAZED LIP PAINTS

Hi Guys,

Remember i said i wanted to try a lot more shades of the L.A girl Lip glaze paints? Well the Makeup gawds whispered into the ears of the sweethearts at TheBeautyBoon and they included these in my lastest order from them. THANKS GUYS!!!

Okay so i am really excited because these shades are righ tup my alley. Blushing is like my everyday shade and Pin Up is just so bright and popping on the lips.

I already gave some gist about the lip glaze in an earlier post. To view that post kindly click HERE. I'l just go straight into the colors and how they wear on me.


BLUSHING: This is a mauve rosey tone lip color. This color is so pretty and very wearable on a lot of skintones. I like how easy it is to work with. It will look great with a simple eye or a smokey eye or even with no makeup on. Seriously! I love colors that are very easy to use. 


PIN UP: Now pin up is a bright true red color. I always wanted a red lip color that wasn't matte and i applied lip gloss untop when i want to achieve that effect. Well now i dont need that because this is great. It isn't drying and lasts a good three/four hours before wearing off.

WHERE TO BUY:THE BEAUTY BOON
PRICE:N950(cheapest i have seen so far, grab it when you can guys)

REVIEW:BLACK UP FULL COVERAGE CREAM FOUNDATION HC05

Hey Guys,

I've been on a major foundation kick recently. I have always used my trusty studio fix from MAC (NC45) and my Black UP fluid foundation(FL04). I recently decided to expand my foundation collection and see what other brands have to offer my skin.

Honestly, when it comes to foundation i like to spend my money on the good stuff. I'm not big on the drug store foundations and i always have problems with shade matching. Its either too dark or too ashy or the staying power is just wrong. I realized the high end brands cater to a wider variety and shade of skin tones. Now this gives me comfort because i don't have to mix two foundations to get my perfect shade.

I had earlier  reviewed the mattifying fluid foundation which i loved as well. To read my review on that, kindly click  HERE.I was introduced to this foundation by my sister. She swore by it and i just had to get one after trying her's out.

What Black UP says:Dark spots, scars, flaws and blemishes… This new foundation hides the most severe imperfections to create a flawless complexion without caking. Its innovative formula and creamy texture perfectly conceals flaws and blemishes for a totally smooth looking skin. Enriched in extremely fine, micronized pigments, the Full Coverage Cream Foundation offers an even make up in extremely pure and vibrant colors. 
15 new shades. Oil Free and Fragrance Free. 

DazzleBeautie: Now when i say Black Up does not play with their foundations, i mean that with all seriousness. This foundation is the best foundation i have ever used. I have been using this for over three months now and the coverage is fantastic and it is surprisingly lightweight for a full coverage cream product. With this ,you do not need a lot. Start with little amounts and build as desired. If you know how to work this well into your skin, you may even skip your concealer by applying more products over the areas where you may have a lot of acne and dark spots.

This baby slides on like a dream and it COVERS! Now... if you do not like full coverage you may have to check out the fluid mattifying one because this is the business. It will not let your skin peek out a little like a medium coverage will. I personally love a full coverage when i go out at night or go to weddings and parties so i have no issues with this. This product also matches perfectly!  There are 15 shades to choose from with this line so there is a shade for every one.

This product did not break me out and it is not as oily as i expected it to be being that it is a cream formula. 

PRICE:N7030

L.A GIRL COLOR POP NAIL POLISH IN TEMPTING


Hey Guys,

I don't do a ton of nail polish reviews because i'm not  a big nail polish buyer. I do oogle at a couple O.P.I glitter polishes when i see them but i never really buy any. I do have a few sally hansen ones that i haven't even used in a while. Boohoo!!

I was sent this and i did like the color at first sight. I have seen the L.A girl polish stand at the poise store and i eyed a few colors so i was all smiles when i got this.


What L.A Girl says: Add a pop of color to your style with bold shades that delivers rich coverage and intense shine. This collection of a trend-based colors, themed to compliment your mood and style.


DazzleBeautie: I like the dark color of this. You need a good two to three coats to get great color pay off. Now let me go off on this polish. The formula of this nail polish is horrible. It left little bumps on my nails and it just looked terrible. I thought i had forgotten how to apply nail polish(i mean is that even possible?? Even a five year old can work the brush) but nope it wasn't me. I don't know if it was this bottle or it is a general problem with the L.A color polishes.

If you look at the nail swatch you can see the surface of my nail is rough. That was right after a fresh application. I searched up some reviews of this product and i didn't find any complaints. Hmmmmm, anyway i will try another color and review it to make sure it wasn't just a bad batch.

Did anyone experience something similar? Let me know what you think.

Thanks for Stopping by!

REVIEW: BOLWIN COSMETICS LIPSTICK IN BAR CRAWL

Hello Guys,

I have a lipstick review for you all from Bolwin Cosmetics. In my previous post i already gave a little information about the company.  If you missed it , kindly check that out HERE

 I noticed i have been either purchasing or getting gifted a ton of berry, purplish lipsticks lately.I used to think i had a lot of pinks but now my makeup stash is a serious dark lip zone!! I'm not complaining though. :D

This lipstick is named "Bar crawland it is a deep berry color.The formulation of this is also matte. I wore this lipstick yesterday and the day before and i must say the staying power is great. It is not as creamy as i would like it to be before settling into its matte form but i guess that helps it stay better. It doesn't settle into my lips and the color is very rich in tone. It wore for about 4-5 hours and it left a pretty little stain on my lips.

* Be sure to moisturize your lips always before applying any lipstick. This helps for an easy application.

PRICE:N2000
WHERE TO BUY:JUMIA
