Revlon ColorStay Moisture Stain


This product is great, it is like a weird hybrid between a lipstick and a gloss. It goes on thick and with shine when you initially put it on. Although it is thick their is no stickiness that you get with a gloss, although it still looks like one. You will get about 2 hours of the lipstick/lipgloss look till you are just left with the stain. I am not a huge fan of the stain that is left behind, it fades strange. After a couple hours I end up looking like I lined my lips and forgot to do anything else.
Cannes Crush
Barcelona Nights
Barcelona Nights has more of a berry undertone than Cannes Crush which is very pink.
Parisian Passion
Parisian Passion was a little hard to put on; it got a little patchy, and it took a little working with but once it was on it looked great!

Maybelline Leather Effects Tattoo Eyeshadows

Maybelline just released their new Leather Effects Tattoos, they appear to be a permanent collection; so no need to rush out and buy them all at once! I bought 2 of their 6 shades at Walgreens, Deep Forest and Creamy Beige. This collection is supposed to be a matte alternative to the metals or their normal tattoo eye shadows. I really love the Tattoo eye shadows, Bad to the Bronze is one of the best drug store colors out there, so I was extremely excited that they were launching new colors.


Deep Forest comes off darker then in the pot, and when swatched, it can be a little patchy when putting it on but you can work around it. This would look great as a base under a smokey eye.


Creamy Beige actually has a little glitter/shimmer to it, even though the “Leather effects” are supposed to have a matte finish. It is a very nice medium taupe color with a bit of a sheen. ($6.99 for .14oz)
