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.

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.

Hey loves! I am trying to get all caught up on my posts before I leave to SoCal for IMATS! I am super excited! Last year was really crazy so I am going with a list and a game plan this time around. I really hope to see you all there! Please stop me if you want to say hello! I would love to take pictures with all of you and post them here.

I am really happy to post this smoky gold eye look that I did for my birthday this year.

Eye of The Day - Edgy Emerald





Hey loves! I just wanted to do a quick post on a look I did a few weeks back using another Mayebelline Color Tattoo. This one is called Edgy Emerald. I love how vibrant the color looks. I did not pack on a ton of layers either. I really hope they release more colors because these are amazing!

I'm so excited I just received a package filled with OCC Lip Tars I ordered. Time to go play around with them. Expect a fun post of swatches coming right up!

Totally Loving - Maybelline Eye Studio Color Tattoo




Hey loves! I am super mega ultra late on trying out the Maybelline Eye Studio Color Tattoo 24HR Cream Eyeshadow. Whew, that was a long one. I took advantage of the sweet deal that Ulta has which is buy one get one 50% off. They have amazing staying power. I wore them without primer and they did not budge. I bought Bold Gold, Fierce & Tangy, Painted Purple and Edgy Emerald.



Here is a look that I did using Bold Gold. I am also obsessed with orange lips for spring so I mixed OCC's Lip Tar in Banjee with MAC's Viva Glam Gaga 2. Excuse le messy hair. =)
