Maybelline Color Sensational Lipsticks: coral gleam & pink quartz

The tubes they come in (:
Pretty packaging! Unique.







Coral Gleam. This lipstick is a light coral color, very pretty and has white shimmers in it,
but not over-done shimmers. This color is more for summer and spring , but it is still wearable
now. I still wear it now. 

SHADE NAME:
Coral Gleam
730

FINISH
Pearl Finish





Pink Quartz. Oh my gosh. How can I explain this lippie. It is the most unique
evvverrr! Okay , first off, its more fall-berry sort of color then pink. Mauve kinda color. 
I was looking at Macbarbie07's youtube videos and saw her inexpensive lipstick vid.
She mentioned this.
I bought it last night.
I am truly, in love.
It has not-overdone GOLD shimmer in it. Wow. It is natural, but noticeable. 
Gorgeous for fall!

SHADE NAME:
Pink Quartz
115







Excuse the duck face :/
Above is pink quartz. Lighting is off so.. 
it is way prettier in person!

Above is coral gleam.





Let me tell you, these lipsticks are so moisturizing. I don't need lipbalm with it! 
They aren't trying.. but not sticky.
I am the type of person that hates goopy sticky gloss, so I like lipstick more.
These are perrrfect.

Softlips Holiday Review

Hey girls... I got a chance to review the new Holiday flavors of Softlips Lip balm. I was sent 5 different balms from the company from the Holiday collection. I am not being payed to review any of these products. This review is my opinion, and is not influenced by the soft lips company.

As I review each lip balm, I will be applying it while I type to get a better description onto the review.

ENJOY (:





sugar & spice
winter mint
mint
sugar plum
sugar cookie




Mint
Pure original mint.
It left your mouth feeling fresh, like you just chewed a mint + brushed your teeth + flossed!
Hows that for a stick of lip balm?
Has a slight vanilla taste to it.



Winter Mint
Tastes of .. candy-canes.
Its an overall lovely taste, by far one of my favorites.
Like "mint" it keeps you feeling fresh, but this flavor
just feels slightly more on the Holiday side.





Sugar Plum Berry
Even though it is a Berry flavor, you can totally tell 
it is for the holidays. It has a slightly sweet over taste, light a sugary kind of
thing. Not my favorite of the five, but I stilled liked it. (you could slightly taste sunscreen)




Sugar Cookie
Tastes exactly like the name. Amazingly sweet (but not sickly sweet),
sugar cookie. I loved how made me so content for a bit, the yummy taste!




Sugar & Spice
This is by far the most christmas-y and as well the hardest to explain.
I loved this. Have you ever been into bath & body works during the holidays
and smelt all of the christmas scents mingled into one with a slight spice in the air?
Thats what this is. Sweet yet spicy.
Love it.




These all were very moisturizing, lasted me 4-5 hours (plus through & after lunch).
They all had amazing flavors that I could devour up (;
The only con was in a few sticks of lip balm I could slightly taste a "sunscreen flavor"
Other then that.. perfect.
They have a large amount of balm in the tube and have sturdy easy-to-use packaging.


I would def. to a re-purchase!



Any companies that would like me to do a review on their product , just send me an email and I will respond ASAP. Email in side bar ----------->

Haul posting.

Hey there everyone, today I am post a bit of a Haul. In the past October month I have purchased quite a bit of makeup. I am on a budget, I don't have cash to throw around so this may not seem like too much for a lot of you but it is a load to me ! (:

First ever trip to a brand new Ulta on its Opening Day. Me plus my friend? Only people in the building. Wow. Love it. Lets just say way better then I thought!

Its a STILA palette (:

I love Lame`.. It looked very yellow, more of a highlight.. but no! It was a gorg. golden with a tad bright hint of a sunny yellow color.

For ten bucks, its hard to beat.

Find it at Ulta or Sephora
