- Urban Decay Naked basic palette
Biore Makeup Wipes:
I've had these wipes now for about 6 months but just recently I started using them because I ran out of my Maybelline ones which are my favorite. I bought a few makeup wipes and this was my last brand I was going to try out. My first impression once I opened it was the smell I really liked it. I can't really describe it but it's not an over powering scent its very soothing. Once I used it I felt like the towelette was a bit dry I don't know maybe that could be because I've had it for a few months now but I just felt I couldn't take out all my makeup. What I do like about it that it takes off waterproof mascara and eyeliner which I do like.
Overall I think its a good product but I still enjoy my Maybelline makeup wipes. I haven't found wipes that could beat them but maybe I'll give the Biore wipes another shot and do another review if they turn out good.
St.Tropez Gradual Face Tan:
I actually received a sample size bottle in my June Ipsy bag and I was happy I did because I have been really wanting to try it but wasn't sure if it would be good. That's why I love Ipsy you can try out sample size products before actually buying the full size.My first impression was it didn't smell great which I find most self tanners have in common. Another thing is I didn't really find a big difference in color, maybe I have to use it more than twice but I didn't find any changes. I'm not going to give up on this product because it has great reviews so I will give it another shot.
Pro FX Top, Base Coat and Strengthener:
If your like me you probably like to change your nail color once or maybe twice a week depending on your mood or what not.
For the longest time I've been using "Seche Vite" as a top coat and "Seche Base" for bottom. Don't get me wrong these products are amazing and are really good, but are kind of pricey for such a little bottle. I was in the search for a good top/base coat and on a trip to Sally's I found the Pro FX product. It had a 3 in 1 protector which I was happy about and it was a pretty big bottle for the same price as a bottle of Seche Vite.
Glamoflauge Concealer:
The reason I bought this was I was watching a video from "PinkSparkles" (she's a beauty guru on Youtube) and she mentioned it. She spoke very highly of it and I was in the search of a good concealer at the time so I gave it a go.
For a drugstore product I think it works really well, I haven't tried any high end ones but I have tried other drugstore ones and this is the best one I have found soo far. It's a pretty big tube and since you don't need much it's going to last you for a very long time. It definitely covers my blemishes very well as well as brightening under my eyes.
I definitely recommend trying it out if your in the search of a good and cheap concealer.
Urban Decay Naked Basic Palette:
The pigment of each color is beautiful and shows up really well with or without primer. I absolutely love this palette and its small enough to put in my makeup bag. I'm really glad I bought it for one it was cheaper and the colors are matte which I like. And I found out 4 of the colors have never been seen in any other Naked palette which is a plus.
Keep smiling :)
