Buxom Lips Off Leash Set


I was able to get my hands on the Buxom Lips Off Leash Set of 15 minis at such a great deal. I just couldn't pass. Each mini is .07 fl oz. It comes in two different finishes. A Lip Polish which has a glitter-iridescent finish(my favorite of the two). And the second finish is a Lip Cream, it has a nice color pay off but it's more of a traditional lip gloss, a little on the thicker side. 

I had never tried Buxom products before. There sleek, glamours with a sweet, candy-vanilla scent to them. The strangest thing, once you apply it has a minty taste to them. I was a little surprised, in a good way. They also have a slight tingly feeling- hence lip plumper.

Swatches of the eight Lip Creams. 

Swatches of the seven Lip Polishes. I will be repurchasing Clair in full size. 

Overall this set was such a great value, I really am happy with my purchase. They're not sticky, thick nor uncomfortable. This was a Holiday set, so I'm not sure how much longer it will be available. But the shades are not exclusive, you can find them full size at Jcpenny, Sephora and Ulta.

Julep Cushion Complexion

 
Julep Beauty came out with these beautiful Cushion 5 in 1 cushion complexion. They are wonderful and blend like a dream. I use them multiple ways and they are travel freindly.
My favorite way to use these are for my dark under eyes. But I do use them to highlight, cover blemishes, as an eyeshadow primer. And there great for a natural, quick everyday foundation look! 
I have these four and I absolutely love them. They are so versitile and I will be purchasing darker toned for contouring! So excited to try them as contour as they blend wonderfully.
 I recieved these complimentary from Crowdtap for testing purposes. I highly recommend and love how they have tumeric, they are so many wonderful benefits.

Marc Beauty

The love of my life, Marc Jacobs Beauty About Last Night Style Eye Con No 20. eyeshadow palette. Oh, how you've easily become the star in my eyes. Yes I'm being a little dramatic, but I can't help myself! His line of makeup does not disappoint. It's a little on the pricier side but you get what you pay for. High quality, luxe makeup, creamy and very pigmented beauty products. Now I am in no way affiliated, sponsored, these comments/ reviews are my own. I wish I were though, wink wink.
This limited edition eyeshadow palette is back in stock at Sephora, so if you need it run! It features 20 eyeshadows, yes 20!You get shimmery metallics, beautiful buttery mattes and sheens. They're highly pigmented, long lasting shadows. Can be used as an everyday look or a glamorous evening look. All in all you get everything you need in just this one palette. I am very pleased and happy to have this in my makeup collection. It is very well made, comes in a sleek gold case with a huge,beautiful mirror. I take it with me whenever I travel. It's the perfect palette. 


Top row swatches, here are some perfect base and under eyebrow shadows.


Second row swatches, beautiful pigmented colors. The last one is a pink shimmery one. It goes perfect on top of another or a simple look on it's own. Very pretty.


 Third row swatches, by far my favorite row. I just love plums and greys. Such a beautifully made palette.


The last and final row of swatches, the fourth black shimmery, glittery eyeshadow is soo bomb! It's beautiful, the glitters actually stay put! 

It Cosmetics

My It cosmetics collection keeps growing. I love how it's not just makeup, it's makeup with a bonus- skincare! Works wonders on my face. One of my favorite brands! 

Laneige Voxbox

I was so excited I received an Influenster box. My first box ever!!! I was jumping with joy and it was for skin care! Now Influenster is a program where you sign up, you can use my link on my page, or not up to you. And you review, review, review. It's very fun, I've made friends and it's my go to for looking up products. You get chosen at random for voxboxes or virtual voxboxes. They have many ways of treating you with rewards. It is very exciting. I received the Laneige Water Bank Voxbox. I have dry/dehydrated skin, so this was right up my alley Laneige water bank is a moisturizing cream. It is formulated with 6 moisturizing minerals zinc, manganese, magnesium, sodium, calcium and potassium. This cream claims instant hydration, relieve dryness and leave skin hydrated and glowy. I've been using this non-stop for 2 weeks, day and night.


 First off it comes in a beautiful, heavy glass jar very luxe I may say. It looks so pretty on my vanity. It came wrapped, sealed, with a lid inside the lid and a cute small spatula. I instantly fell in love! It is very moisturizing, it does soak right into your skin. Seriously my skin drank it right up, a little goes along way. I feel very cool and refreshed after I apply. Has a slight scent to it nothing overpowering, just a nice clean, fresh scent. I don't mind it at all and it goes away as soon as you apply it. This has easily become a staple in my skin care routine. I will be purchasing it in the future. Living in Minnesota we get cold, below zero winters. It's horrible for my skin and this will be my life saver. As you can tell this product was a win for me and if you have dry or somewhat dry skin get it!! I highly, highly recommend. You can purchase this at Sephora *I received this product complimentary from Influenster for testing/reviewing purposes.

Sephora Favorites

I get so excited when Sephora comes out with there favorites bundles, and a lot of the time they are of good value. Swatches and thoughts below. 

Personally I'm a lip junkie...you get one full size and five deluxe sizes. Give me some nude lip is a mix of liquid lipsticks, glosses and a lip crayon.

Too faced lip injection in Spice Girl. Right of the bat this smells bad, stings and it didn't plump my lips. I had to dip into it at least four times to get pigmentation. This was my least favorite.


Marc Jacobs Hi Shine Lip Lacquer in Sugar Sugar. I was very excited for this gloss, not very sticky has a minty smell to it. Way to nude for me maybe will work great on top of lip liner or another lipstick. 


Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Gloss in Kristen is very pigmented and a really nice formula. Really no smell to it, which I like. Not kiss proof, but this was another one I was excited to try.


Nars Velvet lip glide in Bound, oh my goodness this formula is so beautiful. I've found my new favorite liquid lip. It's not long lasting, but it reapplies wonderful. No smell to it, non sticky. I just fell in love with this. I will be buying more of these. 


Tarte lippie lingerie matte tint in Revealed, this is another newbie for me. And a hit! It's a chubby stick not very matte, and has a minty smell to it as well. It's creamy and very pigmented. 


Urban Decay Vice waterproof Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick in Trivial. Whew that was a mouthful, this was the full sized item you get. It's shimmery I don't like shimmery lips, it is long lasting not too drying. Has a light chemically smell to it. If it weren't for the shimmer I would of loved it!
Over all I liked two deluxe size products not much of a hit for me. I wish they would have given us a lipstick, or more of a variety of nudes.

Biobelle

 Hello Biobelle masks, these beauties got my attention on Instagram. I talked myself into purchasing them. The packaging is very pretty (I'm a sucker for pretty packaging), the names are cute as well. They're made with botanic fiber, parabens free, gluten free, no Gmos. There wonderful, have a great variety. I have yet to try them all, I've dived right into Happy Hour it smelled amazing. Happy Hour left my face feeling refreshed and moisturized. I see why there so popular, I can not wait to try the rest. I hear there's a unicorn mask yet to be released. Laugh out loud, I'm excited as I love face masks and anything magical. You can find these in stores or online at Ulta.
