Blogmas Day 19: Holiday Lip products!

 
 
With the holidays here, I'm sure everyone is celebrating all month long. You know with holiday parties, decorating and baking! Everyone has their own way of getting into the holiday spirit. Some dress up and others wear makeup. As I have said before I am not really a lipstick person nor do I regularly use lip products. Unless it's one that I really love. A couple of years ago I talked about the Kate Moss Rimmel London Lipstick. If you want to check out my first review on this click here Rimmel London: Kate Moss Lipstick. Trying this lipstick for the second time was a much better experience for me. Although I really liked it the first time, applying it was difficult for me. If you're laughing at me I get it, it's pretty funny. I was clueless when it came to applying lipstick. Compared to the first time this color does not intimidate me as much. It's still bold but it's more subtle than I thought it was. This lipstick is very pigmented and it applies on the lips very easily! If you're going to a party and you want to make a bold statement, this lipstick is great for that. If you're simple like me, a neutral eye look would be gorgeous paired with this. But if you're some who like dramatic and wants to go all out, pairing this lipstick with a smoky eye would look fierce. A winged eyeliner would also go great! The color is Rossetto and this is not matte, which means it doesn't dry. 
 
The other lip product is simple, but it's a two for one deal! The e.l.f. lip and cheek duo stix comes in the color Rose and it's a matte and shimmer finish. The colors are pretty and although you can use this on the lips by itself, I would recommend pairing it with a more bold lipstick or gloss. The Lip and cheek duo is not glossy or shiny. The shimmer side does not show up well for me, I can't really see the shimmer at all. In certain spots there's a little, but not really. If you tried this you will probably get better results because everyone is different. Overall I do like this product, it's not one that I love by itself but it's good. Again for a holiday party simple look, I would leave it as is and pair with a simple eye look. If you're dramatic add on a bolder lipstick or gloss to this product, so it can be shiny and a smoky look. 
 
I hope you enjoyed reading and let me know your favorite festive lipsticks or glosses!

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...
