Swatches: Maybelline Colorsensational Lipsticks

So many people have reviewed these and loved them so I decided since I had some coupons and it is BOGO at Rite Aid this week, I would go get some in addition to the two I got for free during Fashion Week. It came out to $2 each, such a great deal since it was retail for $7.19 each! Sorry for the swatches if you think they are bad, I haven't learned how to do them as great as other girls do. Enjoy!

E.L.F. Haul

So I ordered from E.L.F. sale I mentioned to you last week Thursday. Tracking actually said that they went to my house on Friday (one day shipping!) but the hard working U.S.P.S. (pfft) are liars because I was home and they did not leave me any notice nor rang my doorbell. So I finally had time to go to the post office that was far away to pick it up. Here are all the stuff I got for a total of only $41.25!




Here are the eye shadows and blushes/bronzers in the compacts.
1st compact (clockwise): Bronzed, Flushed, Shy, Glow
2nd compact (clockwise): Periwinkle, Pink Ice, Wisteria, Truly Pink
3rd compact (clockwise): Dusk, Ivory, Moondust, Mocha


This is the Mineral Eyeshadow Primer and Eye Primer & Liner Sealer. The sealer part doesn't make sense to me because doesn't it get contaminated by each color you use? Also, the liquid inside comes out of the container very easily.


This is the travel mirror and Candy Shop lip gloss (free gift).


These are the concealer, foundation, and blush/bronzer/blending brushes. They are very soft!


Lastly, these are the mineral lipsticks which is why I ordered in the first place.


Colors: Bare Brown, Barely Bitten, Cool Coral, Fiery Fuchsia, Natural Nymph, Nicely Nude


Colors: Party Pink, Pouty Petal, Prime Plum, Ripe Rose, Rosy Raisin, Rosy Tan, Runaway Pink

Swap Packages & Requested Swatches

Some swap packages came as I mentioned in my last post, don't you just love opening envelopes even though you know what's in it? Swapping is a great way to get rid of what you don't want without throwing them away while at the same time having the chance to try other products you want but don't need to spend money on.

This package contained Rimmel's Lasting Finish in Celeb, Airy Fairy, Pink Champagne, and NYX's Black Label Lipstick in Bling.



This one contained NYX Round Lipstick in Mars and Avon's Ultra Color Rich in Instant Mocha.



These two were other swap packages.



These swatches were of the N.Y.C. lipsticks I got from the last post.
First pic: 401A, 402A, 418A, 339A, 313A
Second pic: Lilac, Peach Ice, Velveteen, Plum Rum, Truffle



These are swatches of the Victoria's Secret Wet/Dry Eyeshadow. I tried to do them wet too but I don't think they came out right so it's just the normal swatches shown. The colors are so pretty! The colors are Bronzinger, Crystal Ball, Espresso Lane, Gold Rush, Hot Ginger, and Smokin'.

Avon Ultra Color Rich Lipstick: Swatches + Review

This is a review on Avon Ultra Color Rich Lipsticks. I bought these a while back when they were on sale for $2.49 each (I believe retail was around $6). I see on their website now that they updated the packaging a little and have new colors. I find that whenever I feel like wearing lipstick, I reach for these because of the nice colors they put on my lips and the moisturizing feeling that lasts a long time. If I want an extra shine, I can just easily add lip gloss on top and go! I would definitely purchase these again!

U2: Wink

U105: Cozy Mauve
