Top Row (left to right): Maybelline Eyestudio Eyeshadow Quads in Purple Icon 30, Give Me Gold 05, Pink Persuasion 80 - I absolutely love these! They weren't advertised well at all! I never even heard about it until I saw the new display at my local Walmart. I wasn't sure if they were limited edition so I picked up a couple the first time. They are very shimmery and pigmented shadows. Not glittery, over-the-top shimmery but iridescent like the swatches I see of Majolica Majorca eyeshadows. This is not something you'd typically find in a drugstore!
Second Row (left to right): Maybelline Dream Mousse Blush in Peach Satin 20 and Rose Petal 25. Peach satin didn't work for me because it was too light and all I could see was the silver glitter that made me look like a disco queen from the 80's. It was hot.... you should've seen me =D I didn't even give Rose Petal a chance after that. I prefer my powder blushes over these anytime.
Second Row (cont.): Maybelline Eyestudio Eyeshadow Quads in Sapphire Siren 20 and Green with Envy 40. Once again, I love these. Green with Envy is my personal favorite because all the colors are different from one another and they really suit my skin tone and eye color!
Third Row (left to right): Rimmel Professional Eyebrow Pencil in Hazel 002 - Filling brows with powder take time so when I'm in a rush, I tend to use pencil. Some people say that pencil looks unnatural but I believe I've mastered the art of achieving natural brows with pencil! Hazel didn't work though because it's too light for me and has a bit of a red undertone. I'll just stick to my Prestige brow pencil in Earth Brown. Rimmel Eye Twist Automatic duo liner and shadow - This comes in a champagne color eyeshadow and a brown liner. I got this on clearance and I can see why! The shadow stick is hard, much like MAC's shadestick! It takes a lot of effort to apply this but I use it as a highlight on top of my cupid's bow and it is perfect for that. Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Life's A Peach 110 - My favorite drugstore lipgloss. Love the texture and the color. This is my second one, the tube looks like a decent size but there's not much product in it. Maybelline Pulse Perfection Vibrating Mascara - I've always wanted to try this but I didn't think $18 for a mascara was worth it. However, this was finally on sale and I snatched the waterproof version for $10! I opened it to look at the applicator but I haven't tried it yet. Maybelline Expertwear Eyeshadow Quads in Designer Chocolates 40 and Chai Latte 22 - I've heard so many great reviews and raves on these quads and WOW, I can't believe how much I didn't like them. I guess what may work for one, may not work for another. The colors look nice in the pan but they barely showed up on my skin. I had to literally scrape the brush on the shadow to transfer it. I know I didn't get an old batch because these where in the new packaging. FAIL. Maybelline Stylish Smokes Eyeshadow Quads in Charcoal Smokes 04 and Emerald Smokes 08 - Guess what? I like these. The colors are pigmented, silky, and lustrous. I plan on getting one more in Natural Smokes.
That's it for now. It's pouring and chilly outside but my home is warm and cozy. I am so thankful I'm not out there sleeping in a wet cardboard box. We are too fortunate. Good night babes :)
