New Maybelline Color Tattoo Summer Collection (Limited Edition)

Hey everyone!
I am really excited about this blog post only because I am obsessed with the Maybelline Color Tattoo's! I didn't even know they were coming out with a limited edition summer collection until literally yesterday! When I was shopping and saw these, I knew I had to have them! They make amazing bases for eye shadows or even look great by themselves.

This new summer collection consists of six shades, I picked up 5 only because I felt like I didnt need the yellow colored tattoo. I feel like these color tattoos are definitely more sheer than the fall collection or even the permanent line. Maybe Maybelline wanted a wash of color for summer to keep it light and fresh. Another feature about these color tattoos are the duo chrome. Every single color tattoo has a duo chrome. If you don't like shimmer, you wont like these new colors. Overall, I wish some of these colors were a bit more pigmented especially the mint, white and lavender but they are a quick and easy eye look for summer.

Maybelline Vivid Lipstick Swatches (on lips)

Hey everyone,
So I've really been loving this warmer weather and can't wait for summer....sooooo Ive been picking up some brighter lip colors! Maybelline recently came out with the Vivid lipsticks which as you can guess from the name are all brighter colored lipsticks. These lipsticks feature corals, oranges, reds, bright pinks, and brighter berry colors.

The colors I picked up were 1. Shocking Coral 2. Hot Plum 3. Brazen Berry

Overall, I have been really enjoying these bold lip colors for the spring. They are a glossy stain finish which I tend to love and stay on really well. Ive had no problems with transfer onto my teeth and have great staying power. YOU need to pick these up!

Review: Maybelline Mega Plush Mascara

So this mascara is Maybelline's newest edition to their mascara line and of course I saw it while in Target and had to pick it up. I had high hopes for this product but unfortunately did not live up to my expectations.

Pros:
Cute color packaging (seafoam green color)
Comes in waterproof and very black
Large wand

Cons:
Flexible stick-pulls on lashes (kinda hurts...what a shame)
Separates but doesn't thicken lashes/doesn't make lashes bold (con for me)
Didn't make my lashes extremely black
Not the most waterproof mascara I've tried, gave me minor raccoon eyes

Overall, I thought it was a waste of my i think $6.07 and wish I would have went back to my original mascara that I use everyday (Maybelline Falsies Waterproof in very black)

WOULD I PURCHASE AGAIN: DEFINITELY NOT.

xoxo,
Claire

December Favorites

Hey everyone,
I decided to start blogging about my beauty adventures since I am on the newer side of the beauty world. This first entry will discuss my favorite items from December.
1. MAC Mineralized Skin Finish Natural in Light Plus
2. NYC Sunny Bronzer (even though mine dropped and broke!)
3. Carmex Chapstick (my holy grail lip product)
4. OPI "Design de Better"
5. Orly "Royal Navy"
6. Sigma E40 Brush

These are just some of the products that have been used on a regular basis throughout December and are definitely considered on my favorites list. In addition I recently picked up some items at the Mall and Target in a recent haul that I am excited to tryout. On youtube, Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Foundation has been continuously talked about as an item to try; therefore, I decided to give it a shot. I'm hoping this foundation will conquer my complications with liquid foundation. Since I bought a new foundation, I decided to purchase the 3-step skin care line from Clinique since it is a new year and my skin isn't its best. I will most likely document my findings here on the blog about these products so be sure to stay tuned for those!

What are some of your favorite products for the month?
