ESTEE LAUDER ALL-DAY LIPSTICK IN ADL 19 AND ADL 39

I've been bad with shopping... AGAIN

I did have a reason though, Estee Lauder had ANOTHER gift with purchase with LILLY PULITZER so I felt like I was obligated to buy items just to get it! ^^

I love the rose gold packaging and the sleek looking tube. It's just so pretty! Good job Estee Lauder! 

The formula is great as well! It's nice and smooth and goes on the lips nicely and effortlessly.

Enjoy!

MY VERY FIRST M.A.C LIPSTICK IN VEGAS VOLT

So I FINALLY got myself a MAC lipstick! WOOHOO!

I went to a CCO (Cosmetic Company Outlet) a couple week back and I just had to get something there.  They have great products for 30% department prices because they were discontinued or overstock items. The CCO carries brands that fall under the Estee Lauder brand so obviously Estee Lauder, M.AC, Bobbi Brown and Clinique. Sometimes they have other little brands but those are the major ones.

Color: Vegas Volt (Coral)
Type: Amplified Cream

It was only $10.50! (US) There are more expensive drugstore lipsticks out there that aren't even as good! :O 

This is a really pretty pinky orangey color AKA CORAL! :D 

I don't know about you, but I AM OBSESSED WITH CORAL! Basically all of my posts have been about coral things because it's my fav at the moment! :) 

I think that M.A.C lipstick can speak for themselves and especially the cream ones. They are just so luscious and pigmented! This isn't a discontinued color so I'm sure there's still more of this elsewhere! This is a great Spring/Summer color!

KOREAN COSMETICS: TONY MOLY CAT CHU WINK LIPSTICK

My name is Leenie and I am a makeupholic! :S 

Anyways, lately I've really just been loving lipsticks! They're just so great! Props to who ever invented lipsticks because I swear there are millions of shades and brands and tubes out there in the world of LIPSTICKS! Does anyone feel like a new obsession coming on? I DO! 

So. I love Korean cosmetics and everything that has to do with cute packaging so I ordered two of the Tony Moly Cat Chu Wink lipsticks. Wow, that was a hand full to read/say in my head! :P

I got it in TWO colors: Coral POP (because I'm OBSESSED with anything coral) and Pink Wink 

Let's just take a moment and admire how adorable this packaging is! LIKE WOW! SO CUTE! ^^

REVIEW TIME 

Aside from the adorably jaw dropping packaging, the formulation is pretty great for these lipsticks. I would consider them more of a balm type lipstick like Revlon Lip Butters but the Tony Moly ones are less greasy feeling. They have light color pigmentation so it's not really BAM! in your face coral or BARBIE pink. I feel like the colors are really subtle and looks natural. They enhance your lip colors a little big and leaves them feeling moisturized. I think that all Asian cosmetics are very subtle has this Dolly look to them. This is not for you if you enjoy the super dramatic clubbing makeup but this is DEFINITELY for you if you're more into the sweet summer dress out and about look! :)

SMASHBOX CAMERA READY BB CREAM

HEY YA'll!

I don't know why it took me so long to jump on the Smashbox BB cream wagon but I got on and I'm NEVER leaving! 

I picked this up the other day because one of my friends got this and was raving about it! As a person that can be easily influenced by other people's opinions, obviously I had to try it out for myself. I see a lot of Youtubers rave about this but I don't know why (actaully I do know why, it's the price) but I haven't gotten around to purchasing this until now. (Sorry for the crappy phone pictures, I get lazy sometimes, actually ALL THE TIME) 

There is 5 shades in the collection and I got the middle shade which is LIGHT/MEDIUM. I have a warm undertone so I thought I would be in MEDIUM but I am not which is fine because that one was too dark for me anyways. 

Side note: I am in the shade MEDIUM for the Maybelline BB cream so watch out. 

REVIEW: I ADORE this product. It's much better than all the other bb creams I've tried not including Korean ones which is the Maybelline one and the Garnier one. This beats them all HANDS DOWN! This leaves my face looking matte and has more coverage than all the other ones. This one is NOT runny and as liquid as the Maybelline one which once upon a time I used to love and enjoy before this BAD BOY came around. Now, I think that this is my favorite Western BB cream. I really like light coverage face makeup like BB creams and tinted moisturizers because they are lighter for my sensitive skin and don't feel heavy. 

BLAH BLAH BLAH, bottom line, this is a great product for people who are on the OILY side of the spectrum and want a good coverage BB cream! 

Swatch of it on my hand before blending. Notice it's not runny in consistency? LOVE THAT! 

All blended and matches me perfectly! :)

KOREAN COSMETICS: THE FACE SHOP CUSHION BLUSHER

My orders came for some awesome Korean Cosmetics! I'm really excited because these are so so CUTE (packaging wise)!!!

Let me introduce myself first! Hi, I'm Leenie and I am a blush addict!!!

I love blushes of all shapes and colors and I definitely don't discriminate!

The Face Shop is a Korean cosmetic brand that makes anything from BB creams to lipsticks and everything in between. I'm not too familiar with Korean cosmetics that much but I have seen a lot of the products online so I just went ahead and got the cutest packaging because I am a SUCKER for packaging of course! :P

I got two of The Face Shop Cushion Blushers: Rose Cushion and Coral Cushion (because I am OBSESSED WITH CORAL)

SWATCH: Left: Rose Right: Coal WITH FLASH 

SWATCH: Left: Rose Right: Coral NO FLASH

REVIEW TIME 

DESPITE the fact that these blushes are in the cutest packaging, these were not my favorite blushes because they are not very pigmented. The swatches took forever for me to do because they just could not show up. The lasting time for these blushes are really short because they're really chalky so it rubs off really easily. 

10/10 for CUTE packaging! 

5/10 for the quality of the blush...

CLINIQUE GIFT WITH PURCHASE AT SEARS MAY 2013

IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN WHEN CLINIQUE HAS A GIFT WITH PURCHASE! 

This is also my FAVORITE time of the year! Haha! :P

These are the gifts: 

You get to choose if you want violets or pinks. I obviously chose pinks because it's for summer! 

So I got an eye cream to get my gift and the eye cream was CAD $37.00. 

RANT: You know what's upsetting? In the states the eye cream is only sold for $30.00. Does Canada really need the prices to go up $7.00 for the stuff to get here? Come on people, this is just so sad because I live so close to the US! GAHHHH 

Anyways, hope you all get a goodie bag with your purchase! Mooahhhh (My attempt at the kissing noise... ) <3 font="" nbsp="">
