Jessica Rabbit Collection from Ciate London!

Hello lovelies!, I'm not sure if you all have heard of the Jessica Rabbit collection from Ciate London. I happened to stumble across the collection announcement on Instagram. Once I got a look of the packaging I knew I had to have it! Then I looked at the pricing of every thing and decided I would only get one thing lol. I decided to get the Jessica Rabbit palette! I ordered it from their site and got in the mail less than a week ago. I hadnt had time to play with it or do swatches because of #momlife But the other day I finally had some time for myself and took some pictures of it! There is also a red lipstick ($22) and a highlighter ($32) in the collection. The packaging for every product in the collection is so beautiful! Especially if you're a fan of Jessica Rabbit like I am lol. I didn't get the other two products because everything together is a bit out of my price range and because I couldnt convince myself I really needed another highlighter an...

COLOURPOP HAUL

Hello lovelies, I haven't posted in a while. Today I thought I would share a recent COLOURPOP haul. I bought their new "Yes Please" eyeshadow palette and the lip products from the iluvsarahii x colourpop collection. Here are pictures of the products. 1. YES PLEASE palette. ($16) This palette immediately caught my attention because of all the beautiful bright colors! A lot of people say it's a good dupe for the Natasha Denonna palette which retails for over $100! Colourpop is WAY more affordable. Here are all of the colors swatched. P.S. You can't really see the first color swatched because it's literally my skin tone! Lol. 2. ILUVSARAHII X COLOURPOP LIP PRODUCTS I bought all 3 of the ILUVARAHII X COLOURPOP lip products in the collection. First is the Ultra glossy lip gloss in "CURVII" 2nd is the Ultra matte liquid lipstick in "MAMACITA" 3rd is the Ultra satin liquid lipstick in "951" Here ar...

NEW L'OREAL COLOUR RICHE LIP PALETTE

Hello loves. I recently made a trip to the drugstore and took a look at the new makeup displays. I came across this new lip palette by L'oreal. It's called Colour riche "La palette/Lip" It has 8 lip colors. 2 are matte, 5 are cream, and 1 is a highlight. The palette I got is in the shade "03 NUDE" They also have one with different shades of pink and another with different shades of red I believe. Here are pictures and swatches! The highlight shade is the last one all the way at the bottom. It's very pretty. I don't exactly remember the price of the palette. I believe it was around $10-$15 I got mine at Walgreens. P.S. It also comes with a lip brush. I haven't tried any of the colors on my lips yet but I plan to very soon! Once I do I'll be posting lip swatches on my Instagram! My Instagram is : LoveXConnie That's going to be all for this post! I'll have another new...

NEW WetNWild Metallic Liquid Lipstick!

Hi lovelies! Yesterday I posted a drugstore makeup haul. I got one of the new WetNWild metallic lipsticks! Today I decided to try it out. Here is my lip swatch and hand swatch of the lipstick. The lipstick isn't drying it actually feels nice when you apply it. Its not very long lasting though but I expected that even though it says its a liquid lipstick. Overall I like it, and I like the way it looks. I'm not sure if I'll be purchasing any more colors though. This was the only color that caught my attention. Here is a short video clip of the swatch. Thats it for my thoughts and swatch on the new WNW metallic liquid lipstick! These aren't as hard to find as their new highlighters. I found mine at Walgreens but I've also seen them at Rite Aid! Thanks for reading! Don't forget to follow me on Instagram! @BeautyWithConnie xoxo

Covergirl - Katy Kat Matte lipstick. Milani Amore Mattalics liquid lipstick. ELF contour brush. Jordana lip liner.  Can't wait to swatch everything and start using it!

NEW DRUGSTORE MAKEUP! Milani, Jordana, WetNWild, Etc.

Hi lovelies, It's been a while since my last post. I bought a few things from the drugstore the other day so I thought I'd post about them here. First i'll start with the Jordana "sweet cream matte lip color" lipsticks. These are the whole reason I went to the drugstore. I only managed to find 2 colors out of the 4 I was looking for. Here they are and swatches. P.S. They were only $2.99! The purple color is called "Mixed berry soufflé " The orange/red color is called "Mango sorbet" These are pretty good for the price. They do have a strong scent to them when applying. It smells kind of like play-doh to me lol. They're definitely matte and actually a bit difficult to remove (if you're using makeup wipes like I did) They also leave a stain on the lips. Overall I like them though, I'm currently on the hunt for 2 of the more "natural" colors. OK. Next I bought one of th...

NEW RIMMEL LONDON SCULPTING PALETTE BY KATE MOSS + Swatches

Hi everyone, I recently made a trip to Walgreens and noticed this small palette in one of the displays. I was immediately drawn to it. It's the new Rimmel London sculpting palette designed by Kate Moss. I only picked up one and got the color "003 Golden Bronze" It cost me $6.99 at Walgreens. Here is the palette:  Here are some swatches! This palette looks very promising and I'm excited to try it out on my face. On the display it said this particular one was for "Medium to Deep" skin tones. I only saw two more options there  "Fair to Light" and "Light to medium" There could be more but I'm not sure since they're fairly new to me. Anyways that's it for this post! Feel free to follow me on Instagram for more beauty/makeup posts! @BeautyWithConavi xoxo -C

New drugstore lipsticks!

I picked up a couple of lipsticks from Walgreens yesterday. They're from the brand "Circa".  I've never tried any of their products before but decided I'd get a couple of their lipsticks to try. They were a bit pricey.  I believe they were about $10 each. The packaging is nice and sturdy though and the lipsticks swatched nicely. The two colors I got are "Natalie" (on the left) and "Brigitte" on the right. After I swatched them I realized how similar in color they are. Unfortunately the color of the bottom of the lipstick was a bit off. Anyways here are pictures of the lipsticks and swatches on my hand :) I haven't tried them on my lips yet. However they seem to be very smooth. I wouldn't mind buying a couple of darker colors. They do have a bit of a scent to them, I'm not sure how to describe it, but it doesn't bother me. I might update this post once I have...

Anastasia Beverly Hills Shadow Couture "World Traveler" Palette And Swatches!

Here are a few pictures of the eyeshadow palette I got in my last Sephora haul. This is the Anastasia Beverly Hills Shadow Couture "World Traveler" Palette. This palette has some of my go to colors as well as some new colors that I don't wear often but wouldn't mind experimenting with. (That blue and yellow) I have another Anastasia Beverly Hills palette and I absolutely love it so I decided to get another one. This palette was only $30 compared to the Urban Decay Naked palettes that cost about $54. Here is a closer look at all the colors and their names. And of course. Here are the swatches of all the colors. These are the top 6. And here are the bottom 6. All of the swatches were applied dried and with no primer. I am pleased with the palette so far not to mention I love that it also comes with a nice brush. I know I'll be using it a lot. If you're in search of a nice quality pal...
