NEW!!! Maybelline Color Molten By EyeStudio

Maybelline Color Molten By EyeStudio

PACKAGING:





-Comes in a plastic black/clear round container 

-Each one contains 2 eyeshadows 

-Contains 2.1 g total of product 

There are about 6 duos in this collection and retails around $8-9 each depending where you purchase.

FORMULATION:

306 Rose Haze

Right: Burgundy Plum 

305 Plum Fusion
Left: Silver
Right: Dark Purple Plum


I am in LOVE with these eyeshadow duos! I don't think I have ever loved an eyeshadow product as I love this one. The texture feels like a Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush and applies so smooth and effortlessly. Once you apply it to your eye it blends like a powder (Applies like a cream works like a powder). All the shadows in this collection have a semi-matte finish.

Top: Rose Haze
Bottom: Plum Fusion


The color payoff is also pretty great and it stays on your eyelid without any trouble with or without primer.

Tarte Holiday Kits

More holiday madness! These 2 sets are great for trying out Tarte's most popular products without paying the hefty price tag. Tarte is an all natural and cruelty free makeup line. Their products are phenomenal and keeps you looking good with good ingredients.


Tarte Thoughtful Treasures Deluxe Best Sellers Set ($19 for all three products retail if purchased full sized $90+)




1.) Amazonian Clay 12-hour blush in the color Thankful 1.5g- Amazonian Clay 12-hour blushes are very pigmented and easy to blend. They last a really long time on the skin with or without primer. This particular color in Thankful is a beautiful matte peachy pink. It gives a natural looking flush to the cheeks that is not too overwhelming. The retail price on this just by itself is $26.

Thankful

2.) Pure Maracuja Oil 7mL (Purple bottle to the right)- A nutrient rich oil that contains vitamin C and essential fatty acids that help hydrate sensitive, dry, and acne prone skin. It leaves the skin nicely toned and soft without the greasy feel that most skin oils leave. It also has anti-aging and healing properties that give the skin a firmer texture, smoother brighter looking skin and most importantly does not cause any breakouts. It is truly a miracle all in one product. I been using this on myself for awhile and it has kept my breakouts at bay and made my skin smoother and a lot more brighter. This is recommended mostly to people with dry skin however because it has thinner consistency than other skin oils and easily absorbed into the skin it also works well on oily skins (no it will not make your skin more oily). The retail price on this just by itself is $46. 

3.) Energy Lip Surgence Skintutive Lip Tint 1.75g (Pink packaging to the right)- A lightly tinted balm that feels very smooth and hydrating on the lips. The product responds to your skin's natural pH and energy giving you your very own personalized pink shade just for you. Like other Tarte Lip Surgence products this one also has a menthol scent to it. The retail price on this just by itself is $24.


Tarte Stop and Stare 6-piece eyeliner and lash set ($39 for all 6 products retail separately a $115 value)



1.) Full size 3 Skinny Smolder Eyes Amazonian Clay Waterproof Liners in the colors Onyx (black), Purple Garnet (brown with a bit of purple undertone), Azurite Green (forest green)- This is a follow up product of the original Smolder Eyes Amazonian Clay Waterproof Liners but in a skinny form. These liners are nicely pigmented and do not budge whatsoever. They have a very creamy texture which enables you to just glide these liners on your eye effortlessly. They can also be blended out for a smoky effect. Each liner on its own retails for $19 without purchase of this kit. Certain colors like Onyx for example are vegan.
Left to Right: Onyx, Azurite Green, Purple Garnet

Left to Right: Onyx, Azurite Green, Purple Garnet


2.) Full size 2 Smolder Eyes Amazonian Clay Waterproof Liners in the colors Rose Gold and Taupe- A versatile product that can be used either as a liner or cream eyeshadow. These pencils are very smooth and easy to blend and also very waterproof, Personally I do not see these as eyeliners due to the size but they work really well as eyeshadows either on their own or under another eyeshadow. They are also very pigmented. These liners have a smudger at the end to blend out the liner if needed. These retail on their own for $22 each.

3.) Deluxe sample size Lights, Camera, Flashes Mascara (Gold Tube in package)- A lengthening mascara that curls and magnifies your lashes by 752%. This mascara does lengthen very well and gives a bit of volume as well. Overall it is a decent mascara the only problem I have with it is the brush. For a mascara brush it is very hard and the bristles tend to poke the eye while applying. If you don't mind hard brushes and aren;t as klutzy as I am this mascara will probably do you very well. 

DISCLAIMER: WORKING IN THE BEAUTY INDUSTRY AWHILE BACK I WAS FORTUNATELY ENOUGH TO DEVELOP GREAT RELATIONSHIPS WITH COSMETIC BRANDS. I WAS SENT THESE PRODUCTS FOR CONSIDERATION. I AM NOT BEING PAID OR FORCED TO WRITE ABOUT THESE PRODUCTS. ALL OPINIONS AND PHOTOS ARE MY OWN.

Eyeshadow Dupes

Don't you ever wish that there could be a dupe for the products that we most desire in life. Something similar yet more affordable and easier to access. Well unfortunately life doesn't really work that way however in the cosmetics world there is hope. Over the years I been looking into some high end products to see if there are any alternatives to that product. So far here is what I found. Most of these dupes are pretty dead on even though they may not all look like it at first, but I assure you on the eyes you can't tell the difference. Not only you will be happier but so will your wallet.

DISCLAIMER: ALL PRODUCTS ARE MY OWN AND PURCHASED WITH MY OWN MONEY. I'M NOT PRESENTLY AFFILIATED WITH ANY OF THESE COMPANIES MENTIONED.

MAC eyeshadows are probably one the most lusted products however they are also one of the most priciest. While the general masses of people love to purchase MAC products do keep in mind the prices are high because MAC is a makeup artistry company which means its products are usually used on a professional basis like on movie sets, commercials, magazines etc...  Here are some alternatives that are not only cheaper but maybe even a little better.


MAC Eyeshadows retail for $15 in the pot packaging, $11 for their depotted version, or $5-10 for pro card holders. All Wet n Wild Trios retail for $2.99 and a plus side they also do not test on animals.

1.) MAC Eyeshadow in Satin Taupe- Dupe Wet n Wild Silent Treatment Trio Palette (Last color in palette)

Left swatch: MAC Satin Taupe

2.) MAC Eyeshadow in Amber Lights- Dupe Wet n Wild I Got Sunburned Trio Palette (Last color in palette)

3.) MAC Eyeshadow in Naked Lunch- Dupe Wet n Wild Walking on Eggshells Trio Palette (Last color in palette)

4.) MAC Eyeshadow in Shroom- Dupe Wet n Wild Walking on Eggshells Trio Palette (First color in palette)


Right swatch: Wet n Wild Walking on Eggshells
Left swatch: MAC Shroom

5.) MAC Eyeshadow in Woodwinked- Dupe Wet n Wild Comfort Zone Palette (3rd color down on left side of palette) 


Right swatch: Wet n Wild Comfort Zone

6.) MAC PaintPot (cream eyeshadow) in Bare Study ($20)- Dupe Maybelline Color Tattoo in Barely Beige ($6-7)


Right swatch: Color Tattoo
Left swatch: MAC

7.) Makeup Forever Aqua Cream Eyeshadow in #15 ($23)- Dupe Maybelline Color Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze ($6-7): Not a MAC dupe however Makeup Forever is another very expensive makeup artistry brand.

Right swatch: Color Tattoo
Left swatch: Makeup Forever
The Makeup Forever one is slightly darker here however once you put it on the eye and blend it out it is very similar to the Color Tattoo one. 

You can purchase all the products mentioned above down below at the sites. Wet n Wild is also available in all drugstores nationwide.  

Hope y'all enjoyed this post I will be posting more dupes to high end/makeup artistry brands later on. :D xoxo
