Maybelline Vivid Matte Review

Hello my loves!

Today's post is a review of the Maybelline Vivid Matte Liquid lipsticks that I received from Influenster. I was so excited when I got this product in the mail because I've been interested in trying them out myself for some time.

Inside my Voxbox I received a card with all the necessary information as well as two shades. A nude in Nude Flush and a red in Rebel Red. I have swatched both (in video), but I've only been wearing Nude Flush because it's my absolute fave (lip swatch below)!

The main statement for this collection is "sensuous feel, saturated color." I definitely agree that you get both saturated color and an sensual feeling on the lips. There are 10 shades available retailing for $7.99 USD.

First Impressions: L'Oreal and Maybelline

Hello my loves!

Today I'll be doing a three-way first impressions post on two L'Oreal products and a Maybelline product. I have been doing a ton of beauty shopping and barely any hauls, but I did want to start jumping in to doing some first impressions posts and videos. Lately I've been on a primer and foundation kick so I purchased a ton of foundations and priners, drugstore of course, that I've had my eyes on for a long time. Hopefully you all enjoy these posts and get some helpful info from it as well.

This first impressions post is on L'Oreal RevitaLift Miracle Blur, L'Oreal True Match Lumi Foundation and Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer. Decided to try out these products first since summer is almost at it's end. I do have a video below showing my thoughts as I applied each product for your viewing.

**Just as a quick sidenote: I'd like to also mention my skin type. I have normal semi-sensitive skin. It gets slightly oily in the summer and slightly drier in the winter. I am pregnant so I have noticed that my skin sucks up moisture really fast, feels a bit more dry at times and that my pores are larger and a bit more noticeable. Overall my skin is noramal and semi-sensitive.**

Just for your noting the products I used are:
- Freeman Feeling Beautiful Facial Moisturizing Cleanser in Kiwi & Yogurt
- Dickinson's Original Witch Hazel Pore Perfecting Toner
- Vaseline Total Moisture Aloe Fresh Light Feeling Lotion
- Avon Elements Moisture Boost Eye Cream
- Blistex Lip Medex
- L'Oreal RevitaLift Miracle Blur
- L'Oreal True Match Lumi Foundation in W6
- Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer in Honey

Now on to my first impressions and final thoughts...

Maybelline Lipstick Collection & Swatches

Hello my lovelies!

I've been wanting to share my ever growing lipstick collection with you all, but I have over 100 lipsticks, so I figured I do this by brand. The first brand was Revlon which was split into two videos because I have a ton of Revlon lipsticks. I've been asked via blogger and youtube to share my collection (complied of mostly drugstore with 4% high end lippies) and I said I would so here it is!

This is the second edition to my lipstick collection and it includes all of my Maybelline lipsticks, including the permnant Color Sensational line, The Jewels Collection (limited edition collection), The Vivids (both permnant and limited edition shades) and the Color Whispers as well.

*there are no picture swatches as I have swatched every lipstick in the video*

During the entire video I used my Nivea Lip Butter in Caramel Cream Kiss to keep my lips moisturized between lipsticks.

Review | Maybelline Color Whispers

Hello my lovely readers and beauty bloggers,

*Keep in mind, these items were purchased prior to me doing the 100 Day Spending Ban....now with that said, back to the regularly scheduled blog post*

Today I will be doing a review on the Maybelline Color Whispers which is another extension of Color Sensational line from Maybelline. I was and still am in love with the Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butters, so I figured I should give these a try since I didn't try the L'Oreal version.

Maybelline says:
Dare to Whisper. Get truly translucent gel color from Color Whisper by Color Sensational from Maybelline. Pure color pigments suspended in a weightless gel deliver sexy, soft, see through color with a touch of shine, without the heavy waxes & oils found in traditional lip color.

The Color Whispers are a huge extension to Color Sensational line with 20 shades to choose from. A range of bright colors to transparent ones, you'll find a color fit for you.

Price point ranges anywhere from $5.70 to $7.49 USD depending on where you purchase it from.

Orange Lip Lovin'

Hi my loves!!!!

Here's a quick kiss for you all!

I know it's been forever, but I am still waiting to get a router in the new apartment so that Wi-Fi can work a bit better. Thankfully, I'm at my boyfriend's this weekend so I'm able to do this post for you all. I am joining another beauty blogger, Leticia - Cosmetics Aficionado, for a blog hop she just started based on Orange lipsticks called:

 

You can read her blog here. Me being a fan of bright, bold lipsticks I just had to join in. I decided to make a "Get Ready With Me" video using one of my new favorite orange lipstick... Maybelline Vivid Lipstick in Electric Orange #880.
