NYX Soft Matte Lip Creme VS. E.l.f Studio Lip Stain

When I fist heard of the NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams I could not wait to try them,but time passed and I forgot about them until last week when I stopped by Ulta and NYX was BOGO 50% off so I decided to pick up two.By the time I was back in my car my lipstick had worn off so I decided to pop on one of the Lip Creams to try it out and as I applied it I could not help but to be reminded of the E.l.f Studio Lip Stain the texture of the the color side is identical on the lips.The questions now are whether they are comparable and ultimately which one is better.

Favorite:Coastal Scents Shadow Worx Matte Eyeshadow Primer

As most of you know by now using a primer is something you need to do if yo want to make sure that your eyeshadow last all day. We all know that primer is basic but it can be hard to find a primer that is reasonably priced and that actually works. In my search to try to find the primer of my dreams I tried the usual and all popular Urban Decay Primer Potion but to my surprise it did not work for me, it creased within an hour of wearing it, it look streaky on my lid and it just was not what I expected for twenty dollars.I also tried the Laura Geller Eye Spackle but it was too drying and did not work well for me and at twenty-five dollar not worth the trouble. I decided to go the complete opposite route and tried the E.L.F Eye Primer from the dollar line, this worked amazingly but it sometimes looked a little powdery around my brow bone area when my skin was dry, so I was not completely satisfied.
When I first hear that Coastal Scents had a primer I did not feel the need to try it right away but when they had a sale on their website I decided to pick it up.

Physicians Formula Nude Eyes Liners

Recently I was at CVS and found the newest collection of Physicians Formula Lines and Shadows called Nude Eyes; an expansion of a previously released collection. I had seen some pictures of the liquid metal liners online and really wanted to try them so when I saw them there I could not wait to get home and try them. But sadly when I was home I was so disappointed and here is why:



Coastal Scents Brush Haul

Coastal Scents has one of the best Black Friday sale, 50% off their entire website. So when the sale came around this year I could not help myself.I ordered 6 different brushes but nine brushes in total because I ordered multiples of some. The brushes came packaged in the a really cute wrapping paper.


New Wet n' Wild Pallets?... Not Really

As I walked through the aisles of the drugstore my eyes could not help but be drawn to a selections of pallets that look oh so similar to my beloved Wet n' Wild 8 pan palettes but they were not in the Wet n' Wild section of the store, I was intrigued. Upon further inspection I realized that these palettes were from Black Radiance, I as read the back of the palette I discovered that they are own by Markwins, who also happens to make Wet n' Wild. Black Radiance is a line of cosmetics designed for women of color, but I though that when it comes to eye shadow your skin color does not matter.They had three different palettes, I decided to pick up one of the palettes that seemed different from what I already had and a color that I would actually wear.
