Best Lipstick Shade Ever AND Less than $2 to boot??

So I'm Back!! I can explain where I been but you will have to follow me to my personal blog...https://shinningstarxiomara.blogspot.com . In any case, I'm HAD to write about this lipstick I can across at the drugstore. ( And no they are not paying me to say this) I have already bought 4 backups of it just in case. It's the Wet'n'Wild Silk Finish Lipstick in 560B & Secret Muse is the color. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!  I have been wearing it almost every day since I got it. It's a better than your lip color shade with a rosy/ mauve undertone. It goes with a lot of makeup looks. And depending on where you go it's less than a dollar. I went to Walmart and it was less than a dollar. I went too Walgreens and it was 1.19 there. I also just checked Wet'n'Wild's own website and it's .99 cents there. It's creamy not drying. When I eat most of it stays on. When it wears off it doesn't look weird it just fades. In any case, if you been looking for a good better than your own lip color lipstick, this one is it!

Ruby Kisses Cream Licious Triple Butter Matte Cream

So I'm loving these kiss lip creams I found at the beauty supply. I saw that they say they have three different types of butters so I wanted to give one a try. I loved it so much I went crazy on my birthday and bought the rest of the line on a website. So here are the swatches. I hope you like them but the ones that I have tried so far I like a lot.  They are not as drying as other matte lipies I have tried and they were a super nice deal @ $ 2.99 each. Also, it takes a few minutes to dry so if you get it somewhere you don't want you can wipe it away. The applicator is one of those pointed triangles felt tips so its good for getting into the cupids bow and to outline the lips and then filling them in(Judy's observation ). I have been using a matching lip liner which makes the last a bit longer but much like most matte lipsticks when you eat or drink its best to take it all the way off and reapply because they look really dry and patchy. But most definitely give one of them a try. In my opinion, it's well worth it.

My current favorite mascara!

OMG so I was at walgreens about a month ago and I happened to walk by a wet n wild display. So when I saw this I was like I HAVE to try this. I must say for a wet n wild mascara I thought it was a bit prisey because as we all know wet n is one of the most affordable brand out there it was 7.99 at my walgreens but it was WELL worth it. I have pretty long lashes as it is (a gift from my dad ) but as time has gone on...age I have noticed the density of my lashes has changed. Anyways this mascara makes them look like they are fake I LOVE it. So the first black tube is a very wet formula and also its a desent brush because it also seperates. Then you do the white tube which are these fibers which are white in color. The last step is to go back in with the  black tube and it just adds thickness and lenth. They look amazing! So a while back I had done a review on a product from essence that was just a pot of fibers you could use with a mascara provided and I did like that prodct but this one is better in my opinion for the simple fact that its pakaged better. If you have any quetions please feel free to ask me, I will do my best.

Thanks !

* out of 5 Review: Maybeline eye studio dou felt tip eyeliner

 

Are you F****** kidding me? Oh HELL NO!! Just when I was trying to give felt tip eyeliners another chance. As you may recall one of the last blogs I posted was of the review of the Loreal super slim eyeliner, which I love. Well that opened the window for me to think that I might get lucky again and find another felt tip eyeliner to love. I decided to get this one because I saw on the commercial in which it says it is supposed to be versatile and be able to make two lines, one think one thin one. I thought was a cool concept... I should have not even wasted my money on this one cause it was awful! To tell you that I never got it to come out to any shade that was dark enough for me to even try it on my eye!  When I first opened it I tried it on my hand and it was so see through  and watery that I didn't trust it to stay where I  put it. The back of the packaging says to shake well, so I did what it said. The shaking helped a little but not really that much. I can't post the pic cause I think in a rage I might have thrown it away- but trust me the whole back side of the packaging was filled with failed attempts. I spent about 8 bucks at Wal-Mart for it and if I would have found the receipt I would have took it back. But the good thing is that I can now tell you guys about it. Don't waste your money, it was not worth mine. If you have gotten this eyeliner and loved it, kudos to you but for me I will not be purchasing  this again. EVER!

New Jordana Best Volume extreme Mascase brush Vs Benefit Bad Gal brush

 

So in the video I did today I happed to mention as soon as I opened up this new Jordana best volume mascara that it reminded me of a Benefit mascara (in the video I said They're Real but I misspoke it's the Bad Gal mascara I was thinking about-I do not own They're Real mascara) In any case as you can see from the picture the Jordana is BIGGER and also has a slightly different shape. The Benefit is easier to work with because of the taper at the end and also the angle of the taper of the brush is better in my opinion. I will go on record to say that I don't see myself repurchasing the Benefit or the Jordana best volume mascara any time soon just because the original Jordana Best Lash Extreme is my favorite and it's only $2.99 @ HEB. That's it for today. Let me know if you have any questions, as always I will try to answer the best I can. :)

Ask yourself...(push yourself)

 

So I'm on vacation this week from my "pay my bills job", and even though I do have things I have to do that are set in stone, I'm trying to prove to myself that I can and want to this makeup thing everyday of my life. I have committed to making  a video a day for my channel everyday this week. So far I have done two videos in two days and I have three days left. I'm happy because if I can prove it to myself then I know that I can do it. Three more days to go. If I can do that will be a great start for me. You know how they say that the harshest critic might be yourself for me that is the case sometimes so here's to proving it me that I CAN DO what I want to do because life it short. You have to do what makes you happy, right?  Makeup makes me happy. :)

Milani Uptown Mauve Swatches

 

Swatched on the hand

 

On the lips

 

My first impression of this lipstick is that it is very moisturizing and pretty pigmented as well. I have only wore it once or twice so that's all I can say for now but so far so good. Full review on this product is pending after I make up my mind. Let me know if you have any questions. TTYL,
