Get Your Dose of Heroine Now!

Hey everyone!
If you're a makeup fan especially a fan of MAC then you may have heard of the ever so popular matte lipstick Heroine. This lipstick has appeared in a few limited edition collections to my knowledge but has recently been made permanent!
If you want to pick this up check out the MAC website here (currently sold out online while I'm writing this). ALSO I read in multiple places this was available in stores early January 2014 BUT check out your MAC store/counter now as it seems it's starting to pop up now.

I picked up mine, will you be hauling this bold beauty as well?



ps. I don't condone actual druguse!

-Love & Luck, Felicia

New Essence Cosmetics LE Metal Glam Collection & Swatches

Hello again everyone!
Have you come across this cute little brand called Essence Cosmetics?!
Now here in Canada where I am you can find this brand in your local Shoppers Drugmart (& I believe in Ulta or CVS in the US). They don't carry a line that's as huge as some of the bigger names here like Cover Girl and Revlon but they do have a wide variety of products.They are very inexpensive & I think great for teenagers and younger tweens starting to play and experiment with makeup.

Every once in a while you can find a limited edition display in store, more recently I've seen a LE Justin Bieber display (check out my instagram for photos of that collection) but today I spotted a new Limited edition collection: Metal Glam!


What did I purchase...?

Maybelline 24Hr Color Tattoo - Fierce & Tangy

Hello everyone!

I recently picked up a few of the Maybelline Colour Tattoo cream shadows, read about my first impressions and see swatches HERE! and because I liked them and they were a great price I decided I'd try something fun and go for a bold, look at me colour!

I picked the beautiful Fierce & Tangy, a lovely and fun orange colour.




Just like the other three shades I previously posted about the pigmentation is great and you certainly get the colour that you see in the pot! Although Fierce & Tangy may not be a colour to wear everyday I feel that it is a nice pop of colour for the summer or for when you're feeling a bit bolder! Just a lovely unique shade.

Remember CC is always welcomed and I hope that this helped you!
Love & Luck

NEW! L'Oreal Paris Colour Riche Products + Lipstick Swatch

Hello all you lovely people!
Today I wandered into my local drugstore, as I often do and found myself in front of the new display for the new L'Oreal Paris Colour Riche Made for Me Pink collection. I snapped a photo of it and even though it wasn't in its proper display spot yet it had been very slightly picked over and a few of the new gorgeous shades had already been scooped up!



'I Pink You're Cute' was completely gone before the end of the day, I also noticed that there was only one of the 'Miss Magenta' shade left (which is what Freida Pinto is wearing in the display photo) and since it was one of the colours that first caught my eye I picked it up before it was gone!

So what do you say, want to see a close up and a swatch?

Nail Polish Haul & Current Mani

Hey everyone!
So I was recently at the drugstore (okay, so I go in there almost everyday truthfully, so what?!) When I saw nail polish after nail polish on clearance. Loreal, Essie, Quo by Orly and even more just waiting for me to take a peek at. These polishes were all older collections but you know what? They were $2, yes $2 how could a girl resist? I ended up buying 6 polishes (see below for a picture of the haul) that are just as good now as they would've been if I bought them sooner. Take a peek below if you'd also like to see my current mani that features 2 of the polishes I purchased!

Enjoy!

Budget Buy

Hey there!

Today I have for you lovely readers/passerby's a great deal!
I was recently at Wal-Mart and decided to pick up a Wet N Wild Silk Finish lipstick which was just under $2! What a great price, am I right?

Wet N Wilds Megalast lip colour has a lot of buzz online because of its pigmentation and stay power but it is a bit drying so I skipped it and decided to go for one of the Silk Finish lipsticks and they can pack quite the punch too!

On to some swatches, want a peek?

Maybelline Master Duo By Eye Studio- Bronzed Shimmer/Color Whisper Coral Ambition

Hey everyone!
So! As the title says todays blog will feature Maybelline's Master Duo by Eye Studio in Bronzed Shimmer and Color Whisper Lip Color in the new color Coral Ambition.

This month Maybelline Canada is having a contest all month long on twitter where a lucky winner will score a Maybelline Lipstick each day! So day 3 (I think it was) I tweeted a photo of myself with the other requirements and I was lucky enough to win for that day!

They sent me this awesome new colour in "Coral Ambition".This colour was very different than most of the colours I usually go for since I usually get bold colours but I really liked that about it.


HEY YOU! You know you want to take a peek ;)

Drugstore Blush Swatches


     

Hey everyone!
So this week I picked up a few drugstore blushes approximate value $10-15CAD each (a little high for drugstore blush IMO but they are suppose to be a higher end drugstore product, I think).
Anyway! I have a bunch of photos here of packaging as well as some swatches at the bottom of the post and so far I've been liking both blushes.

                                              Almay Smart Shade Powder Blush in Pink
                                                                     

                                Physicians Formula Happy Booster Blush Glow & Mood Boosting Powder

MAC Rebel

Hey everyone!
So I havent posted here in a while, my laptop broke, I had no internet, lots of work, etc, etc
Anyway! This past week it was my birthday and I decided to reward myself by buying my first ever MAC lipstick in Rebel. So I have a few photos here, the casing and swatches!



First off you get your lipstick in a nice little black box which when I think about it I really do like because it makes your purchase feel that much more...luxurious? Indulgent? Like you're getting your moneys worth.




  On the bottom of each casing you have the name of your lipstick along with some other info, where it's made, etc as with many other lipsticks.






Now onto the good stuff!

Wet N Wild Megalast Nail Polish- "2% Milk"

Here's a look at the Wet N Wild Megalast Nail Polish- "2% Milk" (that I previously posted in a haul), its a lovely, natural nude-pinkish colour. So glad I picked this one up. Great for under $3!


If you're looking for a nude colour or something that is great when you don't want to go all out on your nails but still gives them a little something then I suggest this, I know it makes me feel just a bit more put together.

Until next time loves!

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain Review

Hey everyone, I have a review for you tonight on the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain, as you can tell by the title.
To see what colour I picked and for some photos click here!


The Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain is just what its name says it is. It combines the gloss and moisture of a lip balm and the lasting power of a stain.
Some pros of this balm stain are as follows:
-Comes in just over 10 different colours
-Easy to apply and handle
-Retractable
-Has a pleasant smell (its sort of a peppermint type of smell but its not overwhelming which I find some others like the Bath & Body Works balms to be)
-Great staying power and will last for hours, I find that after the glossy effect wears off and I'm left with just stained lips it's still a nice colour and there's little to no transfer.

The one con I have is the price which at drugstores is about $8-10 or you can get it at Wal-Mart for $6-8 which isn't too bad but I can get decent drugstore lipsticks (i.e Rimmel) for cheaper. 

I will definitely purchase more of these in the future and would recommend them to others as well!

-Til next time!
