Review: Revlon Matte Balm

Hello Everyone,

I hope the  new year has been good to you all. So I have a few things I wanted to review today for you.

I purchased the Revlon Matte Balm in Shamless, Shewy and Elusive.

Product  Information :

Plush matte finish balm that's comforting. Triple butter shea complex

Thoughts:


I find the matte balms to be very pigmented, it is rich and velvety. I don't  find them to be moisturizing although it has the Shea complex.  It has the light minty sent and I feel a bit of a tingle as I am wearing it.

I like the price of these balms- the cheapest I found them was at Target.

I also like the color ranges that they have available, although there are only 10 colors available currently.


Okay so on to the colors,

Elusive - I would describe this as a coraly pink for those of you who know it think Mac Viva Glam Nicki 1 only matte

Showy - This one can be described as bright pink, think Mac Candy Yum Yum

Shameless -  Is a deep plum the closest color I can think of is Mac Smoked Purple

Elusive

Showy

Shameless

As always if this is in your budget, get it.

Enjoy

Urban Decay Revolution Lipstick

Hello Everyone,


So today I have a couple of the Urban Decay Revolution Lipsticks that I picked up. I have only really worn one so far, but I do like what I see.


Product Information :


Revolution delivers the pigment rich color. It is creamy ,long lasting, hydrating and nourishing. It offers 22 shades that works on any skin tone.


Thoughts:

I find the lipstick to be very pigmented.The color is true to what is in the tube, which as we all know that sometimes is not always the case. I find it to be full coverage, and buildable to make a bold statement.  I wouldn't say that it is long lasting, but it does have good wear time. The packaging, is also  neat, so what we are looking at is a gunmetal tube outside; when you open the tube it has a dark purple.  The only thing I didn't care for was the price, at $22 a pop you have to really consider the one you want.

Okay so on to the colors I got.

So the color I have been wearing most this summer is Anarchy, which a bright fuchsia color

The other color that I purchased was F-Bomb, I got this for 2 reasons the name and the color- this is described as a classic red.

Also as we are heading into the fall months were the darker, warmer lipsticks come out to play.

I got Shame which is described as a deep berry and Venom which is described as a bright plum.

The Gunmetal packaging.

Anarchy, F-Bomb, Shame, Venom

As always if this is in your budget get it.

Avon Clearskin Blemish Clearing Treatment

Hello Everyone,

So today I wanted to talk about the Avon Blemish Clearing 2-in-1 Hydrator.

The product is supposed to help with clearing blemishes on the face while keeping it hydrated.

While I didn't personally see any changes in the blemishes I already had on my face, I noticed that I did not get any new ones. I did also find that my face had a luminous glow to it.


It does not have any SPF, so I use additional face lotion over it. This product was light weight enough where I didn't feel like my pores were drowning.

I would say that if you are prone to breakouts this would be good addition to your routine.

This is available from your local Avon person.

Have a nice day everyone.

Maybelline Colorsensational - Vivids

Hello Everyone,

I hope you are enjoying your weekend, well I happened to pick up the highly discussed Vivids lipstick. I purchased 3 of them.


Hot Plum- Bright Pink, Vibrant Mandarin - Orange , Brazen Berry- Purple


Thoughts:

I like the price , the were less than $6 at Target. So if you picked up more than one it would be the price of 1 lipstick from the department store.

The pigmentation is awesome, they do stay very true to color. This would be a good lipstick to start with if you are new to lipstick or if you are wanting highly quality lipstick without the high prices.

I also find that the color does last a very long time and the lipstick was moisturizing so it did not feel very drying.

The lipstick has the nice fruity smell, not waxy like some.


If you are able to pick up a couple go ahead and do so.

Hot Plum, Vibrant Mandarin, Brazen Berry

Hot Plum

Brazen Berry

Mandarin Orange

Let me know if you get any of these.

Until next time.

Revlon Lash Potion

Hello Everyone,



As you all know I am always on the hunt for the best mascara.  For a  mascara to meet my standards they have to be no clump, lengthens ,and add volume. 

Product Information:


Transforms Lashes to lush, long and lustrous. A potion with strengthening proteins drenches lashes for volume. Triple- groove wand combs through for clump free length.


Thoughts:


I find that it does lengthen and adds volume, don't think that you will somehow magically look like Emma Stone in the commercial. Try not to use to many coats though as it does flake off. I do like that I was able to darken my lashes and it does make it look as if I have them. The brush size may seem intimidating, but you are able to use it on both the top and bottom.

This is an inexpensive option of mascara, this can be found at your local drugstore.


Hope this was helpful,

Have a good day,
