ColourPop UltraMatte Lipstick

I am so excited to try out the Colour Pop Ultra Matte Lipsticks. First off I never actually believed in the packaging of a tube and a wand. I have always just purchased lipsticks. Another thing although it was so big was the actually believing a gloss like cosmetic can actually stay matte. Opening the package it came in a bubble envelope so the lipstick package was squished, no big deal nothing was broken. You get a few cute little items like the postcard and flyer for the collection you ordered.

My lipsticks were (top to bottom):

Beeper: Taupe

Lumière 2: mauve pink

Tulle: mauve burgundy

Rooch: red wine

Avenue: yellow red

LAX: vampy red

I have to say that my favorite is LAX and Avenue. I love red lipsticks I think they fit my skin tone the best. I have used all of the lipsticks already and I love all of them except Rooch. I don't know if it is because its from a collaboration or if there is anything different with it but this one dries and feels like sand. It did not look good and most of it came off really quickly. I loved the rest of them. When applying you have to make sure that your lips are dried and I lined my lips first then applied for the best look. You also have to work quickly since they dry within seconds. I ate, talked, drinked a couple of beverages and my lipstick was still there. You don't need to reapply if it is something light or non oily. They last at least 6+ hours. Im not sure if they all do but I wore Beeper to school the other day which was basically half a day. They leave a light stain if you do not wait for it to completely dry.

There are a few tricks or tips that you can follow to get the best results:

1. Don't reapply or over apply.

2. Using lip liners.

3. Exfoliate your lips.

4. Lips should be completely dry before application.

I love the color variety they have, they are affordable plus I believe you get free shipping on your order of $30 or more. They are always coming up with new products, colors, and collaborations. I definitely recommend these lipsticks because of the quality. I am looking forward to trying on more of their lipsticks. Compared to high end brands these are pretty close to quality and for the fraction of the price! Who can beat $6.

Have you guys tried anything from Colourpop Cosmetics?

Enjoy Review

Hello Ladies, Like many of us, we value the importance of treating our hair. It is one of the great things that makes us unique. In order to get my hair that smooth feeling and shine I love using products that I can trust. I got the opportunity to try out the Enjoy Hair Moisture Plus Trio. This is great for damaged hair and you know you need this when the weather is changing. I have to say this is one of my favorite hair products so far. I love the Enjoy Hair Mask. My hair has never felt better. Though I do not have perfect hair and I use a flat iron and curler on my hair on a regular basis using this trio has made me feel like I can wear my hair down without using any heat. It gives my hair volume and it has a clean smell, if that makes any sense. My hair feels clean throughout the day and that makes me happy. The shampoo and conditioner are thick and silky so you don't have to use a lot of product to feel the difference. Overall I think these are great products, they are o...

Beginner's Green Recipe

A couple of months ago I watched a documentary on Netflix called "Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead" and I was motivated to change my lifestyle and eating habits. When I was younger, around 12-13 I believe I ended up in the hospital for a very bad ache on my stomach. I couldn't move and I fainted. I ended up staying in the hospital for about 3 days with IV's on my hands. I was very skinny less than 90 pounds. All I had eaten was a bag of Hot Cheetos and a Pepsi. I was dehydrated. I pretty much learned my lesson, I couldn't eat any meat for years, I stopped drinking soda and it took me 6 years for my stomach to be able to handle things suck as steak, or even a hamburger. Ok, I have to admit I did not eat healthy all throughout my college years because of time and money. Now that I am done with school I am trying to go back on track and change my eating habits. After watching the documentary I decide to try these juices they are talking so much about. I had never like...
