OCC Lip Tar Test Tube x3 Set Review, Picures, and Swatches

Hey guys! I'm here today to review the OCC Lip Tar Test Tube Set in Pink Prism. This product comes with 3 mini tubes of Lip Tar and a mini lip brush. A full size lip tar contains .33 fl oz and the three deluxe size samples come with .08 fl oz. Now, I know that sounds like there is barely anything in there compared to the full size, but you barely have to use any product to fill in your lips. There is no way I'll be able to finish one of my full size ones, so maybe I won't waste one of these babies! Anyway, the three colors that come in this pack are Pretty Boy, Lovecraft, and the primer. Pretty boy is claimed to be a matte fuchsia, but when it dries, there is still a sheen there. That doesn't bother me at all to be honest, the color stays there all day. Really. All day. It lasted through eating, drinking, touching my mouth all day. It's amazing. This would be the one that I would use up completely. Lovecraft is a metallic blue based pink. And man, it has some shimmer. Since it's honesty hour, I would never wear this by itself. It sinks into fine lines, shows everything you don't want to show on your lips, and slides everywhere. I was really sad because the color is so so pretty.

 But the great thing about lip tars and that you can mix them. They come in squeeze tubes with very small openings so it is very easy to control how much you want to squeeze out. So when mixed Lovecraft with Pretty Boy it created a light pink with a little bit of shimmer. It almost looked like Pink Nouveau lipstick from MAC. And lastly, the primer is the same consistency as the lip tars, which is somewhat of a semi thick lip gloss. You are supposed to apply this before your colored lip tar so it will last longer, but I really do not think it does anything. I tried it with regular lipsticks too,  and it just makes everything a goopy mess. But I guess it would work well as a regular clear gloss on top of lipsticks as well. I really loved this set and thought it was a great deal. I just might have to but all the other ones also. If you would like to try this, you can for $19 here.

LANCÔME Lip Lover Lip Gloss Review, Pictures, and Swatches

Hey guys! I'm here today to review Lancome Lip Lover in Casse Noisette, which is Russian for Nutcracker. This lipgloss comes in a silver bottle with a clear window to see what color you have. There is a little button between the cap and the bottle and you can press it and it will pop the lid up so you can take the wand out of the bottle. It really is cool. The wand has a standard doe foot applicator on the end. The gloss itself is very pigmented and glossy. It's hydrating and stays on for a few hours before reapplication. It's not very sticky, but hair will definitely stick to it :/ The color is a pinky nude. It goes with any eyeshadow. I might purchase a few more colors, I would love to try the darker shades and see their pigmentation for myself. If you would like to purchase this you can for $23 here.

Bee Naturals Lip Gloss and Luxury Lipstick Reviews and Swatches

Hey guys! I'm here today with a review of Bee Naturals Lip Gloss in Fig and Luxury Lipstick in Chaste. I already gave a mini review of the company on my post with the Blemish Lotion and Oil-Free Moisturizer which you can read here. So lets get started with the reviews.

Lip Gloss in Fig - $6.95
This product comes in a squeezy tube which some people don't like, but I prefer this packaging. I feel like applicators waste the product. The color is a very neutral brown red. It can be sheer but buildable on the lips. But here is where things start going wrong. The consistency is like grape jelly. When applied to the lips is was so streaky and would not blend no matter how much was applied. My lips looked patchy and sad. I really wanted this product to work because I love the color but I couldn't. If you would like this product you can purchase here.






Luxury Lipstick in Chaste - $24.95
Lets start of this review by saying I LOVE this lipstick. It is so creamy and the perfect color. It is a neutral pink and matches my lips perfectly.  It comes in black packaging with gold in the middle. It looks very gorgeous. This color is also sheer but can be buildable. It looks very natural on the lips and wears very well and doesn't smear. I seriously need every lipstick in this line. If you would like this product you can get it here.








I really love every product I got from this brand and would love to try more! If you would like to purchase any of their items head on over to http://www.beenaturals.com/.

My Eyebrow Routine

Hey guys! Today I'm here with a tutorial on how I do my eyebrows. I'll mention the products throughout the tutorial so keep an eye out for those. Always remember that eyebrows are sisters, not twins. Let's get started!

P.S. I'm wearing eyeshadows from the Naked 3 palette, so if you want a tutorial on them, let me know in the comments!

First start with a clean brow (duh) and I fill in the first little part of my brow (you can see where I stop) with a lighter color than my brows really are and make sure the lines are nice and sharp. I used Make Up For Ever Aqua Brow in 15 and an angled liner brush.



Then I fill in the brow to the arch with a dark powder. I make sure the lines are straight and pretty, then I blend with the first part of my brow. I used Sexpresso from the Too Faced Natural Eye palette and the same angled brush.


Next is pretty simple. I just fill in the 'tail' part of my brow with the same dark brown shadow and brush.



Finally I set it with a brow gel. I used Elf Wet Gloss.

Sephora Glossy Gloss in Pink Macaroon Review and Swatches

Hey guys! I'm here with a review of Spehora's Glossy Gloss in Pink Macaroon. It's a milky light pink and goes on sheer. It comes in a squeezy tube and  is not sticky. Barely feels like you have lipgloss on. Also, it smells really good. Like something sweet. It lasts longer than a lot of my other glosses which is awesome. I can't wait to buy some more colors. They're only $12!  If you would like to purchase this you can here. Now for some pictures.
