LipShine By Nicka K New York

Nowadays it's hard to find a lipstick or lip gloss that is affordable. But I can understand why, because some people think more expensive equals higher quality. Although that may be the case, it's not always true. Surprisingly there are more affordable ones that are still made of good quality. Lip Shine by Nicka K (NK) is a brand I never knew existed. But while at the beauty supply store I saw the brand. I'm starting to be open minded, when it comes to trying out beauty products. These lip glosses were on $2 so I brought 5 of them. The glosses are not matte, so they do not dry. But I love how they stay shiny, so I can deal with that. These glosses are very creamy and pigmented, so I only have to apply 1 to 2 times. 
 
A75 Sheen
Sheen is one of my favorite colors! I know it's a clear lip gloss, but you can never go wrong there. My lips are glossy and it stays that way for awhile. I don't feel sticky with it on and there's no greasy feeling either. 
 
A80 Matrix
Matrix is my second favorites. I have mentioned this one is my "current beauty favorites post". Here's the link for that: Top 5 Current Beauty Favorites. When applied to my lips it looks like a nude/mauve color. I am actually surprised I like this one. It wasn't in my comfort zone but, it's not extreme. So I really like it a lot it almost blends in with my lips. 
 
A84 Bossanova
Although its like a purple color it's lighter. I lean more towards dark purples but, surprisingly it's not bad at all. Besides this is way out of my comfort zone more than the color matrix but, I'm glad I brought because it's a pretty color. 
 
A85 Woody Brown
I almost like it more than matrix. So this may be my new second favorite, we'll see! It's like a chocolate color and it's so gorgeous. 
 
A87 Payne's Gray
I honestly didn't think I would like this one at all, because of the color. Even though it's gray, it looks like purple is mixed in as well maybe that's why I like it. I didn't expect this gloss to be a gorgeous but I was wrong. 
 
Overall I love these glosses and I will definitely be buying more of them. Like I've said before these are very affordable at $2 each, especially if you're on a budget. I hope you enjoyed reading and if you want to check out their site and the direct page to the Lip Shine glosses click the links below!

  2. I love those shades not sure if I could find the brand where I am from though. I agree higher prices don't always mean higher quality. I liked Bossanova on you

  3. These colors are fabulous! They look great on you. I think my favorite is Bossanova though. I've never even heard of this brand and to get them for $2 is amazing! It's always hard to find a good quality product that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Thanks for sharing this! (:

My Thoughts While Watching Makeup Tutorials!

I love watching makeup tutorials so much that, three hours have literally passed. I remember watching my first ever makeup tutorial. It was from Dulce Candy and I was thinking wow if only I was that talented. The title of her video is called "Makeup For Beginners"! Now lets be honest I am not a makeup artist nor do I have the talented of creating nice makeup looks. I don't even where makeup except the basics. So I decided to share with you the things I think about, while watching YouTube videos and looking at makeup pictures. You will probably be surprised and hopefully you'll have a little laugh. If not then I really made a fool out of myself with this one! I actually laugh at myself for this, which means I'm probably weird now! Anyway, here's my thoughts while watching makeup tutorials.  "That Highlight Though." "Wing On Point." "Girl you better work it, wing on fleek. Is that word still in?" "I Wish I Could P...

Self Love Is So Important!

  Has there ever been a time where you felt unworthy? Unworthy of someone loving and caring for you. Have you ever disliked yourself so much, to the point where you would go into a dark place? I ask these questions not to necessarily get an answer back, but to let you know this happens to a lot of people. Self love is so important and everyone should feel good about themselves. Unfortunately in today's world that isn't the case at all. Society puts a label on what people should and should not look that. People judge one another 24 hours, 7 days a week and it's wrong. I've wanted to write this for a while now, but sometimes it's difficult. You don't want to offend anyone, but you also want to bring awareness to this topic. I'm not an expert on how to love yourself, but I do know what it's like to not have confidence. I know what it feels like to not think you're good enough, even when people tell you that you are.    I use to think I was I wa...
