Reviews on Smashbox Photo finish light face primer and Too faced shadow insurance...

Hey everyone! I hope y'all are having a great Saturday morning! I just wanted to share with you all a long overdue review of Smashbox Photo finish light face primer and Too faced shadow insurance.

I'll start off with a review on Smashbox photo finish light face primer. I love this primer! I bought the travel size last year, so I could just try it out and see if I liked it. The travel size cost me $15.00, but it was worth it! This primer claims to be great for people with acne-prone skin, oily skin and sensitive skin. It is oil-free and it's 60% water based so when you apply it, it refreshes on contact and the little oil absorbers provide a smooth, matte finish all day. So those are the claims and I think it lives up to those claims. However, I don't think it keeps your face matte all day. I put this on in the morning around 8am and by the time I get home around 9pm, my forehead looks and feels like an oil slick. I have oily skin in my T-zone, I'm acne prone and my skin is sensitive. So by the middle of the day, my skin feels oily.

So that would be the only con to this primer, everything else about it I love. Accept for the $15.00 price tag. The full size of this product costs $36.00 and I'm not willing to pay that much. But anyways, this primer has lasted me for a long time. I purchased this in August of last year and I'm just now starting to run out of it. So overall, I love this primer! There are just a couple cons that I have, but otherwise it's great!

Ok, moving on to Too Faced shadow insurance eye primer. This is amazing! I use this every morning to prime my eyes before putting on my eye makeup and I have to say it keeps my eyeshadow on all day! It keeps it looking fresh and my shadows don't crease. Again the only thing I would have to say that I believe is a con, is the $18.00 price tag. I mean, for a good primer I think its worth it. But I know that some people are on a tight budget and can't fork out those $18.00 for a primer, me included. So I would love to find something thats a low cost alternative and I have yet to find something. But again, its lasted me an incredibly long time. I bought this the same time I bought the face primer in August of last year and I still haven't run out yet, though I think I'm getting close unfortunately. And also if you're wondering, it does come in a tube. Which I think is very helpful, because when you start getting low you can make sure youre getting all the product out with the squeeze tube. The same thing goes for the face primer, it is also a squeeze tube.



So thats my review of those products! I think they're great products I just think that the price could be less. Please let me know if you've found a low cost alternative to either of these products, I would be so happy! Thanks for reading and I'll be blogging again soon! I actually will do another eye makeup tutorial I think later today, so keep your eyes out for that. Have a great day!

Wet n wild's vanity eyeshadow palette review....

Hey everyone! I hope you're having a great Monday afternoon! I just wanted to share with y'all my review on Wet n Wild's eyeshadow palette in Vanity. This is a 6 color palette and I actually really, really like this alot! The reason being is that one side has three shades that are totally matte and the other side has three shades that are shimmery.

You can refer to my latest post for a tutorial I did using this palette. The shades in this palette are very pigmented and rich, they blend super easy and the color pay off is excellent! I applied my makeup on Saturday at about 12pm and didn't remove it until about 11pm that night. And all the shadows stayed perfectly fine and still were really rich in color. So I'm very pleased with that. You can pick this up at Walgreen's for around $4.99. I think for the price and the quality of these shadows, every woman should have at least one of these palettes in their collection! If you pick one of these up, you won't be disappointed! Well,  thats it for my review of Wet n Wild's Vanity palette. I hope y'all have a great night! Keep your eye out for more reviews and tutorials using the wet n wild eyeshadow palettes coming soon! :)

Wet N Wild Vanity Palette Tutorial....

Hey everyone!! I hope you are having a great Saturday morning! I just wanted to share with you a look I created using Wet N Wild's Vanity palette. This look is a very sexy, sultry look that I feel is for a night out. I'm going to a concert tonight and I wanted something a litte darker and sexier than a nude eye look, so I came up with this! Orginally, I was going to use wet n wild's blue had me at hello palette but it didn't turn out how I wanted, so I went with the vanity palette. So lets get started...

I'll show you my full face makeup and what I used as well.

Ok, so here's what I used for my face makeup:

FACE:

• Smashbox Photo finish light face primer
• Sei Bella Tinted moisturizer in Fawn
• Milani Multi-tasker face powder
• Benefit Hervana Blush

And here's the products I used for my eye look:

EYES:

•  Too Faced Shadow Insurance Eye primer

• L.A. Girl FineLine liquid eyeliner in black
• Covergirl professional all in one mascara in Blackest Black

Also, here's what I used on my lips:

LIPS:

•  Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Pink Truffle

Ok, so there's the list of products I used. Now lets get into the tutorial:

So using a flat eye shadow brush, I used the shimmery brown shade on the right of the palette and I placed this all over my lids. Next, I used my L.A. Girl fineline liquid liner in black and I lined my upper lash line. Then I went back to my vanity palette, and taking the same eye brush I used the matte brown on the left side of the palette and I placed this shade close to my lash line where I just put the liner. Then I took a fluffy crease brush and blended everything out. I finally finished the look with my covergirl professional all in one mascara in blackest black, I placed this on my top and bottom lashes.

And thats it! Its pretty simple, but yet I believe very put together. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial! Please feel free to try this look out using whatever products you have.
