Swatch of The Day - MAC Cosmetics RiRi Woo

» Price -  $15

» Availability - MAC Cosmetics (Limited Edition) will return in June

» Overall Rating - A tad bit deeper than MAC's Ruby Woo. It has a retro matte finish and did not leave my lips feeling dry. Lasted a good 7 hours before signs of fading began to show. This lipstick will be launching again in June with the RiRi Hearts MAC Collection. The collection will be released in multiple installments throughout the year.

Swatches & Reviews

Love Affair (Top - No primer | Bottom - With primer)

» Review - It is a soft and delicate pink. It took some layering to get it to show up when I was trying to wear it on my lids. Also applied a tad bit streaky on top of the primer. I loved using this as a blending color along my crease. It allowed a soft buffed out look to my crease colors.

Electric Lemonade (Top - No primer | Bottom - With primer)

» Review - A bright yellow with a slight bit of shimmer. This color was easy to work with and did not require a lot of layering. Great lasting power. Perfect option if you want a yellow with some sheen.

Melancholy (Top - No primer | Bottom - With primer)

» Review - This color is amazing! Vibrant blue with a very small amount of shimmer. Very easy to work with and did not need to layer this color at all. Highly pigmented. I love this blue!! Perfect for adding a pop of color on your lower lash line or wearing it on your lids.

Lace Panties (Top - No primer | Bottom - With primer)

» Review - Isn't this color incredibly gorgeous? It is a purple-ish pink color with gold undertones. Very versatile, can be work on lid, crease, lower lash line, etc.. Easy to work with. This color is quite unique and I did not own anything like it in  my collection. Definitely a must-have.

Chocoholic (Top - No primer | Bottom - With primer)

» Review - Deep coppery brown. Great pigmentation and easy to blend. Perfect for everyday eye looks. Although it has a bit of shimmer to it this color still worked perfectly along my crease and gave me a lot of depth.

Super Nova (Top - No primer | Bottom - With primer)

» Overall Rating - Ok, let's all just take a moment to take in the awesome-ness that is Super Nova. How cool is this color? It is described as a matte black with multi-colored shimmer. This black is insane. I also used this color as a liner and the shimmer still shined through. Beautiful color, amazing pigmentation and the multi-colored shimmer just adds that extra bit of love. Very unique color with solid staying power!

Swatch of the Day - Khroma Beauty Joystick Lip Laquer in Shocking Pink

» Price -  $8.99

» Availability - Ulta

» Overall Rating - Infatuated with this color! Fantastic pigmentation. Glided on quite smoothly. Non drying. The fine tip gives you more control of your shape. Lasted 4 hours before minor signs of fading began to show in the center.

Review - Maybelline Clean Express Waterproof Eye Makeup Remover

Official Description - Go from Fierce to Fresh-Faced...Fast! Oil-free, dual phase formula leaves no greasy residue. Quick dissolving power with no harsh rubbing.

» Price -  Lowest price $4.97 at Walmart, $5.99 at Ulta

» Availability - Walmart, Ulta, Target

» Review - Maybelline has just released their new Clean Express! Line. This remover comes in a classic eye, waterproof eye, cream formula and wipes version. I opted for the waterproof version because my eyeliner is waterproof. With standard makeup wipes it takes a lot of rubbing and tugging to get my liner off. It's never a good sign when you see a few eyelashes on the wipe either. So I always have to have a separate product to remove my eye makeup.

I think it's a pretty good deal for 4oz of product! First you shake the bottle to mix the solution together and pour a tiny bit out onto a cotton round. I gently rub it around my eyes and it melts away all of my waterproof liner. It does smear it around a bit but after a few rubbings it wipes it completely clean. I love that it does not leave a greasy oily feeling that I get with other removers that I have tried. So far this has been the best price point and most effective eye makeup remover that I have used on my eyes.

Swatch of The Day - OCC Lip Tar in Clockwork

» Price -  $18

» Availability - Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics, LeCosmetique, Sephora

» Overall Rating - It is described as a rich terracotta with vivid orange undertones. This lip tar is part of OCC's Sci-Fi Lullabies Collection. It has a matte finish. This particular color was inspired by the book/movie A Clockwork Orange. I am in love with this color! Perfect for Spring & Summer. Not too vibrant and not too pale. My favorite lip tar from the Sci-Fi Lullabies collection.

MAC Fashion Sets Swatches - Ablaze & Heroine

Today MAC Cosmetics launched their new limited edition collection Fashion Sets. It had an early release online and it hit all MAC stores/counters today. I was impressed with the entire collection but I only wanted two of the four lipsticks that launched. I picked up the highly anticipated Heroine & Ablaze. I bought a backup of Heroine because I love purple lipsticks so much. After swatching Ablaze I regret not getting a backup of that color. It is stunning! 

Did any of you pick up goodies from this collection?

Swatch of The Day - MAC Betty Bright Lipstick

» Price -  $16.50

» Availability - Limited Edition - Sold Out MAC Cosmetics Try your local MAC counter or store.

» Overall Rating - Please excuse the delay in this post. I apologize that this lipstick is currently sold out. I decided to post up the swatch for anyone that needed a reference in how Betty Bright showed up. This is a lipstick with a satin finish. The color is a vibrant peachy coral. I was pleasantly surprised that it did not wash me out. I did need to layer this color quite a bit but that is the case for most lipsticks with a satin finish that I own.

Swatch of the Day - Tarte LipSurgence Matte Lip Tint in Exposed

» Price -  $24.00

» Availability - Tarte, Sephora

» Overall Rating - Amazing lasting power. I can eat and drink with ease, this color does not budge. It is slightly darker than my natural lip color so it gives the illusion of fuller lips. It has a peppermint taste to it that is not overpowering. I love that it is retractable with no need for a separate sharpener. Can't wait to try other colors!

Swatch of the Day - YSL Rouge Volupté Shine Prune in Fire

Hey everyone! This is going to be my first official "Swatch of the Day" post. I thought it would be a fun idea to have these posts so I could share with you all quick swatches of products that I have been using. I am going to try my hardest to post as much as I can through the week. I am going to start working on a better swatch archive! I know I am always searching for swatches of products before I buy them sometimes even when I am in the store browsing through my phone. I hope these posts help everyone out! 

» Price -  $34.00

» Availability - Yves Saint Laurent

» Overall Rating - Very hydrating. It glided on smoothly across my lips. It had a delicious fruit taste to it. It provided opaque coverage with shine. It did not feather and wore for 5 hours before signs of fading in the center began to show. My lips felt soft and hydrated even after I removed the color.

Mini Drugstore Lipstick Haul

Hey everyone! I wanted to share with you all today a few swatches of some new lipsticks that I have recently picked up. I picked up some of the new Maybelline Color Sensational Vivids and a Wet n Wild MegaLast Lip Color.

Maybelline Color Sensational Vivids - I picked these up at ULTA because they were having an awesome sale which was buy one Maybelline product, get one 50% off. I first bought Brazen Berry but fell in love with swatches of all of the other colors that I was finding. These lipsticks definitely have high impact color. I was expecting Brazen Berry to show up a bit more purple on my lips but still loved the final result. The other two that I picked up was Shocking Coral (Left) and Vibrant Mandarin (Right). Both of those color looked true to their color and applied smoothly. If you are looking for a vibrant lip color at a reasonable price I highly suggest that you check out these vivids!

Wet N Wild Megalast Lip Color - I have reviewed these lip colors in the past and instantly fell in love. When I found out that Rite Aid was having a sale which was 40% off different brands which included Wet N Wild, I took that opportunity to stock up! I love dark lip colors so I was immediately drawn to Vamp It Up. It is a deep plum color that makes a statement. I love how it glided across my lips and did not require any layering. The color lasted all day with minor fading towards the end of the night.
