Small MAC Haul


The items I got are all lipsticks. I'm always on a hunt for lipsticks that are "different" from the typical ones out there. These are all $15 each. I used the Macy's gift card that my uncle gave me on my birthday. Thank you Rose Family! <3
I got:
-Film Noir (Satin): Deep brownish-burgundy
-Vegas Volt (Amplified): Coral-pink
-Lady Danger (Matte): Reddish-orange


**I will do individual reviews to go more in depth about the finishes**

Current Obsession: Summer Lipsticks


 I really love bright, in-your-face lipsticks for Spring/Summer and I wanna show you all my current lipstick favorites. I usually throw on some mascara and a bright lipstick when it's really hot. It really makes a whole outfit. That pop of color on the lips could really make it seem like you worked on your makeup for a few hours. If you're looking for a lipstick that really screams fun, here are some shade ideas you might enjoy:
(Left to Right):
- MAC Morange
-Kat Von D in Underage Red
-Maybellin Vivids in On Fire Red
-MAC Viva Glam Nicki
-MAC Candy Yum-Yum
(Left to Right)
-Maybelline Vivids in Brazen Berry
-MAC Rebel
-Wet N Wild Vamp It Up

I'll try to make a makeup look that shows how I use these lipsticks. I know there are a lot of girls that are scared to try very bright colors. I suggest to just try it once and just have fun with it. Don't be afraid to try something new. Thank you all for reading <3

MAC Fix+ Skin Refresher/Finishing Mist


ABOUT THE PRODUCT:
This products is available at MAC counters and stores and retails for $20 (100mL/3.4oz) or $10 (30mL/1.0oz). This product is meant to refresh your face before makeup application and can also be used to set makeup.

I would rate this 4/5

Don't get me wrong, it's a great product! But not for what it claims to be good for. When I use this to refresh my face or set my makeup, I get really oily by the end of the day. And my face isn't even oily in the first place. It makes my makeup seem thicker on my skin.

HOWEVER, this is great for intensifying powder eye makeup. For example, you spray this product once on your brush, dip it into the jar of pigment and sweep it onto the lids. It intensifies the color of the pigment, makes the application a lot easier and makes it last a lot longer on your lids.
I recommend this only if you work a lot with pigments.

Here are some swatches of pigments with the product:
The Balm Overshadow Sexpot in "If You're Rich, I'm Single"
L'Oreal High Intensity Pigments in "Famous"

Top 7 Favorite Red Lipsticks



 I've been really loving red lipsticks for this fall and this is just top 7 of the lipsticks I've been loving to wear. Not only because they have pretty colors, but also because of the quality of these lipsticks individually. The list below is not in order.


From Left to Right:
1.) NYX in Eros - This lipstick has a creamy finish and only needs at least one touch up to last the day.
2.) Kat Von D in Underage Red - This is the epitome of red lips. It looks great on every skin color, lasts long, and looks great with Pin-up looks.
3.) Wet N' Wild in Red Velvet - Has a matte finish and lasts all day. The color is very pigmented and pops on the lips.
4.) MAC in Russian Red - Matte finish and lasts all day. When I wear this, I never had to re-apply. This is MY FAVORITE out of all the red lipsticks I own.
5.) L'Oreal in British Red - Very creamy and pigmented
6.) Milani in Hot Flash - Most pigmented foiled lipstick I've ever tried. Pencil form makes it easy to apply.
7.) ELF in Rich Red - For the price, this definitely surprised me. Amazing quality! Gives a nice matte finish and lasts all day.

M.A.C Viva Glam Nicki (Review)




*I know I'm very late with this but another opinion doesn't hurt right?

I shake when I spend over ten dollars on a lipstick but, this is totally worth it. There's nothing like it. I have natural tan skin and when I saw how pink this lipstick was, it scared me. Usually, pale pink lipsticks changes the color of my skin tone and make me darker. But, the Viva Glam Nicki doesn't change your color but ENHANCES it.
I was looking for a great pink lipstick when I visited the M.A.C store a couple of months ago and the lady at the store recommended the Viva Glam Nicki. I was like "Heckkkkkkkk no! That's too pale!". Thank goodness she forced me to try it on. I put it on and I told the lady "OK, I'm so buying one". It's extraordinary! Not the everyday pink you see on a normal person. It definitely reminds me of BARBIE!

In each lipstick, you get 0.1oz/3g. These are $14.50 each. Satin Finish.


I would rate this product 5/5
