L.A. Girl Cosmetics Glazed Lip Paint

Hey loves,
I found out about these glosses on Instagram, by the way, you should be following me on there,  anabelogb. When I first saw them, I instantly thought about the Too Faced Melted Liquid Lipsticks, which I already love. Each of these glazed glosses are ($4), compared to the Too Faced ($21), I thought it would be worth a shot to test them out! 

Top to Bottom: Pin-up, Coy, Blushing, Bombshell, Babydoll, Hot Mess 

Too faced on the left and La Girl on the right
you can definitely see the similar packaging

Besides the packaging, these are far from being alike. Too faced's formula is a lot easier to work with. They are easy to apply, while the la girls' formula is pretty messy. I do like the la girl glosses though, I was pleasantly surprised. They are really pigmented and shiny. I think they are a great buy for the money. If you think about it on the money standpoint, you can basically get all 6 glosses for the price of one melted liquid lipstick. The melted lipsticks dry on your lips, making it more of a stain than a gloss. I don't think these two products are comparable at all. I love them both for what they are claiming to do.

top to bottom: Hot Mess, Babydoll, Bombshell, Blushing, Coy, Pin-up

you can see how glossy these are.

My faves are bombshell and pin-up

top colors are too faced, bottom colors are la girl 

When I tried coy on, I immediately thought about Dose of Colors in Purple Fusion. Purple fusion is a little bit darker, but they swatches very similar!


Too faced melted lipsticks are available at Toofaced.com, Sephora, Ulta
La girl glazed lip paints are available at lagirlusa.com

It Cosmetics Naturally Pretty Palette

Hey! 

I have here the it cosmetics eyeshadow palette, named naturally pretty. I've been eyeing this palette, but kept telling myself I didn't need it. I was originally going to use my 20% off at ulta to get it, but then I seen it cosmetics had a 25% off, so I immediately ordered it.  You can still get this on itcosmetics.com until tomorrow April 8th for $31 with promo code :celebrate! Originally $42.

All the colors are matte then the bottom larger shade is called the transformer shade. With this shade you can change the finish of the shadow. You can place this color under or over any color and it will make it look shimmery or tone down the shadow! 

The shadows are so creamy and easy to blend. They are a little powdery because they are so soft! 

Top Row

Bottom row

On the left I have the eyeshadows on their own, then on the right I added the transformer color on top. I don't really notice a difference. Personally I like matte colors, so I would use the transformer shade as a brow bone highlight or inner corner shade! 

It's a great deal ladies! 

Limecrime Lipsticks

Hey lipstick junkies,

I love limecrime! They have really cute packaging, as you can see. Who doesn't love purple and unicorns all in one?? They are super pigmented and creamy. They remind me of mac lipsticks, but way more unique colors! They are around the same price range as mac too. You can purchase directly for limecrime.com or at urbanoutfitters.com! 

Ladies, you need these in your life! 

Too faced a la mode eye palette

Hey ladies, 

So too faced has a great spring 14' collection out, that I'm obsessing over. The melt lipsticks are amazing! 

But this is post is based on the a la mode palette, Anabel, get it together! Lol. 

($36) exclusive at ulta! They have a different version at sephora! 

I think there is missing a good transition shade to blend everything, but you can use any brown you already have in another palette! 

YSL Lipstick

Hey Lipstick Junkies,




YSL has the most beautiful packaging of life. Yes these babies are on the pricy side, but they are worth it! I would take advantage of the 15 percent off sale going on at sephora now until April 11th to try one of these lippies. The lipstick itself is so creamy and packs a lot of color. They are easy to work with, you don't need a lip liner or gloss over it, its perfect on its own! I use my sparingly on special occasions, they are so luxurious! In total I own 4, I think I have a good range of colors, nude-y pink, peachy, purple, and deep red. Well I'm missing a bright pink one, maybe that will be my next one, eeeek!

#12 Forbidden Burgundy, #19 Fuchsia in Rage, #13 Peach Passion, #1 Nude Beige

Do you own any or which ones are on your wishlist ?

Makeup Geek Eyeshadows

Hello makeup geeks, 

I love this brand! Especially love their eyeshadows. This brand was created by a YouTuber Marlena. I didn't know much about her before purchasing these. I found out about this brand through other youtubers (Jaclyn hill) who raved about how pigmented and blendable these shadows were, and very comparable to mac shadows. I knew I needed to try them! I actually got to meet her at imats LA, she's so sweet and down to earth! 

This was a recent purchase, paid with my own money! I also placed another other to try some brushes and an eyeshadow named "chickadee", which was out of stock which seemed forever. 

Packaging is super cute! Each pan ($5.99)

You can also purchase each shadow in their own compact, but I like storing mine in these z-palettes to save space and have them all in one place! 

Z-palette sold separately ($13) ordered mine from amazon. 

Top to bottom: 

Cosmopolitan, Mango Tango, Burlesque, Shimma Shimma, Vanilla Bean 

 

Below I have some shades I already owned. I loved these neutrals, therefore I placed an order for more shades. 

Left to right: Cocoa Bear, Latte, Frappe, Mocha, Peach Smoothie, Creme Brule

You can also purchase a kit as a whole. It comes with a small z palette, like the one above, with 9 most popular shadows. You can check their website to see more information on that. 

These shadows definitely a thumbs up for me!
