Wet N Wild Liquid Catsuit

This blasted liquid lipstick will be the death of me...Let me give you a little story on this before I begin my review. I went to EVERY SINGLE Walgreens in my area trying to find this lipstick!! CVS of course doesn't carry it right now...That would be too easy... I finally after 4 days of searching found 3, yes 3 sades of this liquid lipstick. 2 were thankfully the colors I wanted, 1 was not.


Rebel Rose


Give Me Mocha
So here are the bad boys that cost me a tank of gas...I purchased the shades Give Me Mocha & Rebel Rose. 
They are beautiful colors. Honestly Rebel Rose, would look beautiful on just about everyone. 
Now these are a matte liquid lipstick. Yes scary right??? I have had the worst luck with liquid lipsticks. Every single one I have tried, have made my lips look like a hot mess. Just dry and cracked, and just wow...But these...These are beautiful. My lips look normal and full of life...Yeah a bit exaggerated but still, they looked good. 


Rebel Rose on the bottom & Give Me Mocha on the top
Now these go on very shinny and you only have about a minute to fix any screw ups, like I call it...Before they dry down to their matte. But once these are on. They really do stay put for a good few hours. 
Now of course if you eat or drink, your lips will show some wear but it's not drastic. I noticed around the middle of my lips, is where I saw the most wear. 
Now I have dry lips, always have and seem to always will...I did think these felt a bit on the dry side, but not like some I have tried. I could live with the little bit of dry I felt. 

Needless to say, I have been wearing Rebel Rose, non stop since I found it! 
Have you picked up any of these liquid lipsticks?? What shades have you gotten and what do you think?? 

By the way~ Happy Valentine's Day!

Marc Jacobs Highliner Gel Eye Crayon Eyeliner < Mouth Full

Ahh let me count the ways I love you....Am I being a little over dramatic??? Yeah maybe a bit, but I really do love this eyeliner!

This is Marc Jacobs Highliner Gel Eye Crayon Eyeliner..That is a mouth full! So let's just go with eyeliner, shall we...

This "Eyeliner" is seriously bad ass. <--- Yep you read that correctly, I said Bad Ass!

This bad boy is waterproof, smudge proof, and just Good. I might be having a love affair with an eyeliner...Humm.....But it's sooooo good! I even wear this in my waterline. Let me quit for a minute and actually tell you something about this eyeliner.

So like I said, it is Waterproof, Smudge proof, Highly pigmented, Creamy, and just Long wearing. I will apply this first thing in the morning and I will have to use my superduper makeup remover to get it off at night. It really lasts all day long.

If you want to get technical, this is A gel pot eyeliner in a crayon (Thanks Sephora). 

I don't know about the rest of you, but I have had seriously zero luck with gel pot eyeliners. They just seem to smudge, gunk up my brush, and make a horrific mess! But with this product, all you do is take off the cap and apply. It's so smooth, and just beautiful...Ok I'm shutting up now...My dramatic butt is off to bed.. Do yourself a favor and hit up Sephora and pick up a few of these beauties. YES they are expensive! At $25 a pop (Yes Ouch!!) they are so worth it. And I don't say that often! And yes I might have 3 of them. But in my defense, two were Christmas presents.  

Too Faced

I'm sure you have heard all about Too Faced Sweet Peach Palette....Yeah I know I'm late...But in my defence, I haven't been able to find this palette ANYWHERE in this Town!! And I was rather iffy on ordering it online...It's always been my luck, I order a palette online and it arrives broken into a million pieces...Anyway...Drum Roll Please....


So here it is the Sweet Peach palette. It's so pretty isn't it...
So let's just skip all of the usual crap, and let me tell you what I think about it.

Yes it smells like peaches. But not your fresh fruit peach, it's more of an artificial sweet smelling, peach ish... <Wow I'm amazing at describing smells...

Over all this palette is nice. There are some major fails in some of the colors..Some have pretty bad fall out, and the lighter colors are very very lite. You have to do some serious build up to get the color even visible. 

Am I happy with purchasing this palette..YES...I wanted it the first time it was released and my stupid self didn't buy it! I do think it's a tad expensive, but hey it's Too Faced...And I hate to say this, but the colors are all pretty much the same in every other pallette. Come on Too Faced, give us a different range of colors!

Starbucks March 2016

Oh Yeah I'm Wayyyy Late posting about this subscription box. Wayyy late! Sorry guys...Anyway...This month, well March's box was Papua New Guinea


Ahh this was Really Good! My husband and I have just about finished this whole bag. This blend was very smooth and just all around yummy! I'm not a coffee connoisseur, so you will have to forgive me for not being all fancy about the flavors. I taste no hints of chocolate, or fruit, or what ever your suppose to taste. But if your anything like me, it's coffee. It's either really good, or really crappy. This one has my vote! Really Good!

Fab Fit Fun Spring Box 2016

So I finally received my Spring Box! I've been looking forward to this box, since I got my Winter box. Honestly I was a bit disappointed. Let me get into the box first.



So Inside I received 7 Items

1. Kitchen Herb Garden DIY Kit
Ok this is fun. I love trying to grow herbs, well anything for that matter.

2. Hello Legs
This is a shaving cream. It smells nice, kind of a perfume floral scent. I'm game to give it a try.

3. ISH Contour Kit in Light/Medium
This is nice. But honestly I don't do anything with contouring. I end up looking like some idiot who doesn't know how to wear makeup...Humm I think I need some kind of class on how to do this ugh...

4. Jus D' Amour Bath Bomb
This box has 3 different bath bombs.
1. Love Potion which is Jasmine, Rose & Sandalwood Essential Oil Blend
2. Wake Up, which is Peppermint & Lime Essential Oil Blend
3. Deep Breath, which is Lavender, Chamomile & Ylang Ylang Essential Oil Blend
So far my favorite is Wake Up. It's not an over powering scent

5. Bodipure Keratin Gloves & Socks
Eh I'm not so impressed. This is only 1 pair of gloves and 1 pair of socks. And you also have to keep these on for 20 minutes. With a 5 month old, I do Not have time for that!

6. Merrithew Mat Strap Plus
I'm really not impressed with this. I honestly have zero use for this. I do not do yoga, so I will never be carrying a mat with me. But apparently you can use this for a gentle resistance workout. My luck though, this will fly off of my feet and hit me right in the face.

7. A Happy Necklace
Ok I totally lost the paper that says who this necklace is by. Opps...And of course I can't find it online! But I guess my neck is too fat. It's a choker on me. So not something I will be wearing...I'm really disappointed!

Over All I'm not as excited with this box as I was the Winter Box. I liked a couple of things, but really just disliked a lot. Bummer....What did you guys think?? Did you enjoy your boxes?? Let me know!

Prospurly March 2016

Fhew what a Crazy couple of weeks this has been! My father has opened his own business, so my husband and I have been down there helping get everything up and running..Say some prayers for us please! This is a very exciting and nerve wracking time for us!...Anyway...Let me get onto The Box...


Spring Has Sprung! 
This by far is my favorite subscription box! Let me tell you what I received in the box this month. 

1. Good Morning Essential Oil
This is a blend of ginger, pink grapefruit and ylang ylang. It is suppose to support digestion, and encourage a healthy body. I don't know about all of that, but I do enjoy the smell.

2. Enchanted Story Spa Bath Bombs x2
These smell Sooo good. I'm bummed though, I dropped one and it just shattered :( Me and my butter fingers...

3. Enchanted Story Spa Cherry Blossom Body Butter
I actually liked this body butter. Years ago I was totally into the Cherry Blossom scent, and I ended up getting really burnt out on it. But this has made me remember how much I enjoyed the smell. This body butter is made in small batches, and you really can tell. I'm happy

4. Menagerie Charcoal Face Wash
So I'm really into the Charcoal masks right now. They have really helped my face look more vibrant and help with the dryness. So I can't wait to give this face was a try! PS keep an eye out, a charcoal mask review is coming up shortly.

5. Tops Malibu Flying Magic Butterfly
Seriously...Just Seriously...You wind this butterfly up and put it into a book, and it will fly out. I'm going all dork over here with this. If only my phone would take a video! You guys would love this.

6. Crystals Crafty Beeswax Candles x2
Ok sorry to say but this is the only thing I don't care for in this box. It's just me has nothing to do with the quality of the candles. I'm just not into beeswax candles. But I have a friend who LOVES and I mean LOVES beeswax candles so I will be passing them on to her.
(Side Note: My friend said these candles were awesome, great burn quality. She plans on ordering some.)

7. Nuun All Day Supplement x2
This is a supplement meant to help you stay hydrated and keep your boxy feeling fresh and fit. Hey it's worth a shot!

8. Bonus: MadeCasse 
Yumm...I received a peppermint chocolate bar...Ahhh peppermint and chocolate, is just so crazy good...

And by the way 1857 Trees were planted in partnership with Trees for the Future.

Ipsy March 2016

First off Happy St. Patrick's Day! Yes this whole post will be in Green! Yep I just roll that way...

Anyway

This Month's Ipsy bag is Hello Spring.
I received 5 Items


1. Beau Gachis Paris, Eyeshadow Brush
This brush is ok..Honestly feels a little on the cheap side. But hey it's a brush! I'll take it

2. Starlooks Luxe Longwear Eye Pencil in Jet
Yep...Another...Starlooks eye pencil. But this on is in black, so it will do.

3. Marc Anthony Nourising Argan Oil 3 Day Smooth Blow Dry Cream
Ok I'm seeing a pattern here...I've already received this before as well...

4. Nudestix Lip + Cheek Pencil in Mystic
This is a nice lipstick. But there is No way I would use this on my cheeks. It is very creamy and smears very easily. So if you do happen to use it on your cheeks, make sure you set it with sometype of setter. 

5. NYX Cosmetics, Liquid Suede Cream Lipstick in Kitten Heels
This is more of a lipgloss. It's nice, applies very smooth, and seems to stay on. 2 complaints, NOT MY COLOR!! And this will Stain your skin anywhere it touches.
