eos lip balm

this is my review on the eos lip balm i bought myself at cvs this was 4.99 i hardly ever buy things at full price this i did and sadly kidof disappointed as i thought i would be y it took me so long to give into the hype and buy one this one is in passion fruit .....



first lets start off with the package as i knew when seeing it in videos ect it would be award and for travel would not be in one of my favorites... well it is hard to handle and u cant throw into ur pocket like how i would when i like a chopstick u want to have it with u and easy to get to


this is round and wide and don't get me wrong i do think the package is cute but little extreme there are 2 grooves on each side for easy open and i like that idea ! snap lock thats nice too ! but u would have to put in your purse to take along with u and idk if u are like me but if it goes in your purse good luck finding it in a timely manor who wants to have to dig around for a lip balm ?


the lips balm is also round /: cute idea bad idea for applying .. this goes on clear no real shine or ne thing does moisturize well but the lasting isn't that great ! u have to re apply all the time! on the good hand this isn't sticky, great smell, nice product, works okay ! but i think all your money is going into the package !!! you can get a better lip gloss for 5 dollars i would go for brurts bees !!!!! in my mind it is way better !!!!!!

better view on how big and round this gloss is LOL when u try to apply u get it all over the place well u will get it on ur lips and all around ur lips sometimes ur teeth and i would think when it wears down will be harder to apply as the big dome will get wider the more u wear it down

all together i would give a 4 out of 10 i do like it and i am using it but keep in my bathroom i wouldn't take this with me or ne thing i like my gloss ect in my pocket and no way u could do this unless u want ur pocket hanging out like 2 inches /: lol not attractive ! i think they hype on this lip balm is wayyyy over rated its just not that great the product is nice just not anything i would recommend or repurchase sadly eos u let me down change the package then it would be ok but still not great a lot like this and idk y package yes is cool but idk fail in my mind all over ! but one good thing is it is not a over powering sent but if u have it tried it or want it let me know ur thoughts leave me a comment and as always thanks for reading my thoughts (:

alma one coat dial up

the pictures are not that great and im sorry but wanted to get this review done as it was requested


bottom is my lashes with no mascara on ...



this i know is blurry but this is one coat of the alma one coat dial up i had it on 3


i got this at the dollar tree for one dollar it is worth that ! is it my favorite not really i now use on top of my lash blast and the 2 look amazing ! i have tried this on 1 2 and 3 and never noticed a difference think it looks the same either way but package it nice until u turn the lid and when u are screwing it off it clicks to all the different settings annoying ! i wouldn't pay more than a dollar for this but is okay i would give a 6 out of 10 most of the score is because it was only a dollar ! but would use with another mascara if u are like me and like thick dark lashes ~!

thanks for reading check out my youtube videos xoxoamandakisses

maybelline lipstick review

found at dollar tree they always have some sort of maybelline lipstick and always a lot of maybelline products !

this one i found is a nude ( as u know i love my nude lipsticks ! )
here it is with flash



shade is in 550 sand


this is in a bit of a darker nude but a great summer nude on darker skin tones or a nice tan ! this is creamy and u wont need a gloss with this lasts okay but will need to reapply after eating or drinking (: like with most for being a nude its not too soft goes on nice and smooth

new la color 3 pan pallets dollar tree !

found at dollar tree and yes are a dollar ! unreal and on my must haves !!!!!! these are amazing soft ( not chalky ) and so pigmented !!! the only thing i was worried about was the shadows staining but after using for 3 days or so they have not stained smeared and all have stayed on !! i watched my hand with all the shadows and went about my day being on the hand the color stayed amazing !!!!!!! comes off easy with makeup whips tho with no really having to rub ! but last all day no fade and as a base i would recommend painterly by mac !!! you will love these shadows with no worries and come on a dollar ? below are swatches and total number of pallets are 8 ! they all have shimmer or sheen to them but no way overpowering more color than glitter and shimmer and that is the kind of shadows i love ! all really easy to wear you can go dermic or neutral with all these ! here is my review on each pallet .....


all the pallets




BELOW the first swatched pallet is in the shades below grassy knoll thee are pigmented !!!! and i love green shades i didn't have a problem with staining or wiping off ! if you love greens a must have !

BELOW pallet #2 is in shades boardwalk and these are great colors and pigmented these colors i don't wear too much as not a huge favorite for me but if u like yellows and oranges again each and every one of these pallets are great ( i don't say too often !


BELOW pallet #3 is in tiki punch ( THIS IS THE ONLY CHALKY ONE !!! ) pinks tend to be chalky but its workable still just as pigmented as the rest and love the shades all work amazing together




BELOW pallet # 4 southern belle these are great pigmented super fun for spring and summer !!!


BELOW pallet #5 in moon rock this would be my favorite as i love blues and navy and grays for shadows ! this will be my daily grab for a shadow blends great !!!



BELOW pallet #6 in shades sand dune i love the middle shade ( well all but this bronze is amazing ) super great for tan skin in the summer (; this pallet reminds me of fall for some reason as all super pigmented

BELOW Pallet #7 in colors lemon grove so summer super fun and bright i will be rocking for summer for sure !!!! the yellow impressed me this is so bright as it is so hard to find a yellow to stand out ( not having to build up ) and last all day with mac paint pot as a base !!!


BELOW last pallet in #8 shooting star if you find all the others and not this one don't worry these colors are all found in the others but they added these 3 shades into one but super pigmented love the pink !!

all of the pallets with flash


all of the pallets no flash

THE COLORS ARE GREAT PRICE IS AMAZING AND I SAY THEY COULD SELL FOR WAY MORE THAN A DOLLAR A PALLET I WAS SO IMPRESSED WITH THESE AND HAPPY I BOUGHT THEM AS I ALMOST PASSED CAUSE I HAVE SO MANY SHADOWS BUT FOR SURE TO BE IN MY DAILY USES !!!! IF I HAD TO SAY THE ONE I WOULD DISLIKE IT WOULD BE SO HARD BUT WOULD SAY THE TIKI PUNCH LOVE THE COLORS BUT IT IS A TAD CHALKY BUT STILL WOULD BUY AGAIN !!! I HAD TO GO TO 2 DIFFERENT DOLLAR TREES TO FIND ALL OF THEM AND I THINK THERE ARE 8 TOTAL MAY BE MORE BUT ALMOST 100 % ONLY 8 HOPE THEY COME OUT WITH MORE THE SET UP AND PACKAGE PUTS ME IN MIND OF THE NYX AND THE DRUGSTORE DUPE I WOULD SAY THEY PUT ME IN MIND OF ARE THE COLOR IKON PALLETS JUST AS PIGMENTED BUT WOW LOVE THEM LEAVE ME A COMMENT IF U GOT THEM LEAVE ME YOUR OPION THANKS FOR READING AND HOPE THIS HELPED !!!

limited edition revlon fashion night pout

what to keep a eye out for (;

i was not able to find this around me yet this is what the display will look like ... my friend thankfully sent me this one and i love it and so thankful she did i was on such a search for this and will buy a backup when it hits my stores !!! these go fast so i see and when u see it i would grab it as u can see they are already all off this display ! the lipstick package is the same as all the color burst lipsticks the quilted package sleek black container and has revlon engraved into the lipstick ( not a huge fan of that ) but its nice sleek package and love they give a color block of the shade on top easy to store and easier to find the shade u are looking for also written shade is on the bottom



fashion night pout ! love this shade however it is similar to soft nude as shown in bottom picture but looks different on lips ! a lot say this is a dupe for lady gaga lipstick


above are the 2 lipsticks out of the same collection the left one is the soft nude from revlon permeant collection the left is limited edition fashion night pout very similar but i like the formula of the fashion night pout better and it is more of a true nude as soft nude has a orange undertone


i would have to say my dupe for mac creme d nude would be the fashion night pout the formula and color is the same nude lipsticks are my favorite and mac lipsticks are always a win for me but must say revlon came super close with this one !

as of now fashion night pout is limited edition and as fast as it is selling out i would say will be back in stock a few times if not made permant line but as of now i would say grab one when u can u wont be disappointed i would give this shade a 4.5 out of 5 and wish the color wasn't quite as sheer but nice great sumer shade light easy to wear doesn't fall into the fine lines of ur lips like a lot of nudes will do and some are dry this isn't and you wont need a gloss for over top of it and i love that lips will look hydrated not dry nice formula hope this helps let me know if you have it and your thoughts thanks for reading i will do a live video review for this !
xoxo
