Lipstick -Revlon - Colorburst Lip Butter
rated 5 of 5

Obsessed, obsessed, obsessed. I will eventually have every shade because I love them so much! 1) Great color pay off 2) So moist and hydrating on your lips 3) Wears really well 4) Easy to apply on the go without worrying about precision 5) Very affordable! **DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE YOU DECIDE WHERE YOU'RE GOING TO PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT** I live in the Midwest and I have seen Revlon Lip Butter for anywhere from $5.99-$8.99. I have found they are the least expensive at grocery stores. Avoid purchasing at CVS, I have never seen Revlon Lip Butter for less than $8.60ish there! If you can save $2-$3 on one product that you can to towards another product, why not?!

Lips -L'Oreal - Colour Riche Balm
rated 2 of 5

I bought this product so that I could compare it to my beloved Revlon Lip Butters. I bought Colour Riche #418 in Caring Coral hoping for a beautiful pink/orange shade for the spring -- I have mixed feelings. I love that the product is very moisturizing and hydrating on my lips however, there is little to know color pay off/pigmentation in the balm itself. I am obsessed with Revlon Lip Butter and was simply curious to try L'Oreal's response to Revlon. I would re-purchase this product again BUT I am going to try some of the more mauve-like colors to see if there is better color pay off. In all honesty, this was an un-researched purchase, which I rarely do, and I think that the product wears well, just lacks pigmentation.

I love this gloss!!!! It is beautiful & stays on for hours! It isn't tacky or too sticky, which I like. You still get a lot of coverage!

Mascara -Maybelline - Volum' Express The Falsies

I love this mascara. I have naturally long lashes and I really feel like this product pumps up the volume on my lashes! I use it in combination with another mascara because Falsie's doesn't give me a lot of length but it does give me tons of volume!

I adore this blush. I bought it for $8 at Cosmetics Company at an outlet mall. I loved the sparkle and bright, peachy color of the blush. I 100% agree: this is an AWESOME dupe for NARS Orgasm. It is just a bit darker (rather than peachy) but I love it to death!

Love this lid primer. Cheap, wears well, and gives me a longer wear when I have on eye makeup. I love primers in general so I really, really like using this product. I also really like how light and easy to apply it is!

Primer/ Corrector -Revlon - PhotoReady Color Correcting Primer (color 002)
rated 4 of 5

I love this primer! I read reviews and was scared to try it but I did it anyways! It doesn't smell beautiful but I promise, if you have combination skin that tends to be oily, this makes such a HUGE difference in the longevity of your make up. It's not cheap but it's still less than Smashbox, Urban Decay, and other high end primers. If you are looking for something that mattes your complexion, helps your makeup wear longer and prettier, try this product! Love the pump. Easy to apply and control the amount you use.
