Review: Kathleen Lights x ColourPop Dream St. Palette

Hey Guys,

Today I am going to share my thoughts on one of the most beautiful and unique palettes that I own. It's the Kathleen Lights x ColourPop Dream St. Palette! I honestly overlooked this palette when it first came out. It looked kind of boring to me and the blue didn't interest me at all. A few of the colors looked similar and I just really didn't give it much thought after the initial reveal. Since then, I started seeing a ton of pretty looks created with this palette. I decided to pick it up once ColourPop released their new Lux Lipsticks. They had 20% off Kathleen Lights palettes so I figured why not try it out for myself. Keep reading to hear my thoughts on this palette.

Kathleen Lights x ColourPop Dream St. Palette $16.00

Here is what is said about this palette on the ColourPop site:

"Don’t blink, even for a second! You don’t want to miss our dreamiest palette yet. Super versatile warm toned nudes with rich pops of colour can take your look from heavenly to out of this world in only a few swipes. Mattes, metallics, satins - every shadow is buttery soft and so easy to blend. Think you can find a better palette? Dream on."

February Favorites & Flops

Hey Guys,

Today I'm going to share my favorite products for February. I have been trying ALOT of new products. It's hard to narrow down just a few so I have a few more than normal this month. I am trying my best to get reviews banged out so you will see a lot in the coming weeks. I am super excited that spring is almost here. The warm weather and longer days just put me in a better mood. I don't really have any big plans for the spring or summer but I am hoping to plan something fun at some point! Check out my video below to see the products that I was loving this month!

Review: ColourPop You Had Me At Hello Palette

Hey Guys,

Review: New Tarte Products*

Hey Guys,

I wanted to share some fairly new products from Tarte. They have come out in the past few months and I am ready to share my thoughts with you. One will definitely be a game changer for some people! Keep reading to hear about these products!

Tarte Limited Edition Tarteist Quick Dry Matte Lip Paint in Park Ave Princess $20.00

Here is what is said about this product on the Tarte site:

"A quick dry, full coverage, transfer-proof matte liquid lipstick in the iconic park ave princess™ shade for a radiant, warm nude lip look, dressed up in limited-edition rose gold packaging. Smudgeproof, longwearing liquid lip paint glides on evenly & dries in seconds to an ultra-opaque, wearable matte finish that doesn’t dry out lips. The comfortflex formula means it moves with your lips, so no cracking or feathering."

 

On to my thoughts:
I already really love the Tarteist Quick Dry Matte Lip Paints in general. However, when I saw that they came out with this Park Ave Princess shade I knew I had to have it. Most "nudes" look like concealer on my lips. This shade is a warm nude that is more light brown than tan. Those are the nude shades I prefer and the ones that look best on my lips. The formula is pretty consistent with all the other shades I own. My two tips are to make sure your lips are hydrated and instead of layering, wipe it off and reapply after eating.  The lip swatch is more true to color when it comes to how it looks on the lips. However, I wanted to show you an arm swatch as well.

Review: BoxyCharm February 2018

Hey Guys,

Today I'm going to share my thoughts on my BoxyCharm for February. I'm going to take a break filming unboxing videos for these because they just don't get enough views to continue to spend the amount of time filming and editing on top of these blog posts. For those of you unfamiliar with BoxyCharm, it is a monthly beauty subscription box. You receive 4-5 FULL SIZED products each month. The subscription is $21.00 a month and usually has a theme.  The theme for February was "Galaxy Glow".  After being blown away from our January box I wasn't too excited about when I saw the spoilers for this month. Keep reading to hear my see what I got and to hear thoughts. Also, make sure to check out the discount codes for Feb!

Review: Tarte Shape Tape Matte Foundation vs Hydrating Foundation*

Hey Guys,
Today I'm going to share my thoughts on the new Tarte Shape Tape Foundation. As many of you know, the Tarte Shape Tape Concealer is my holy grail concealer. It covers my dark cirlcles unlike anything else and doesn't look or feel cakey and thick on my skin. When I heard that they were coming out with foundation I was so excited! I was able to get PR samples of both formulas and wanted to share my honest thoughts about each. Keep reading to hear how each foundation worked for me!
