As I mentioned in my previous post, I went to visit my twin sister this weekend. Being the generous sister that she is, she surprised me by handing me a gift bag from Urban Decay! Inside was a gift set called the Show Pony Palette (or something like that!), which came with a palette of six eyeshadows, a mini 24/7 eyeliner in Zero, and a mini bottle of the original Primer Potion. She also included a berry colored lipstick called Vinyl.
The packaging is so cool! And the shadows are awesome, they are super pretty and pigmented and glide on easily. I've been wanting to try the eyeliner and the original primer potion for awhile now, so I'm happy they were included in this set! I'm somewhat new to Urban Decay, so I'm not sure when this came out.
Isn't this the coolest lipstick packaging ever? It's really sturdy and heavy! The color is super pretty too, it's a deep rich berry color, which is nice because I don't really have any lipsticks this color
We stopped by CVS because I knew they were having a sale and she wanted to get some new things. She bought me a few things along with her stuff ( she spoils me - she knows I'm a poor college student with no job at the moment! )
I got one lipgloss, three lipsticks, and one of the Loreal HIP eye crayons ( the green crayon and the Loreal HIP gloss I bought myself awhile ago but forgot to do a post on them). The MAC MSNF she bought herself awhile ago but wasn't really using it, so she passed it along to me-score! It's a tad dark for my skintone (shade: Medium Dark), but not so much that it's not wearable, it just makes me look more tan, which is fine since it's summertime! :)
These are the Maybelline Moisture Extreme lipsticks and they were both 50% off, which was awesome because I've been wanting to try the pink shade for awhile now! The pink one is Born With It, and the other is Cool Watermelon. OMG, I am in love with both of them! They are super pigmented and reallly moisturizing! Now I see what the hype is concerning these lipsticks!
I am in love with both of these lipglosses too! Especially the Revlon one, it's the perfect shade of nude peach, and it's not sticky at all! Definitely gonna have to get more! And I got another Wet n Wild Mega Last Lipstick in Coral Something (that's not really the name, the Coral part is but I can't remember the second part!). This color is super bright but a gorgeous shade of coral. Swatches left to right: Loreal HIP Lipgloss in Precarious (coraly orange with gold shimmer), Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Life's a Peach (nude peach with shimmer), and Wet n Wild Mega Last Lipstick in Coral-(bright matte coral).
Lip swatches, these are pretty close to the real colors, I think the Revlon is a bit more nude and Born with It is a little lighter, but the rest are pretty close.
Haha, how do you like my cheesy smiles? :P
So I hope you enjoy all the swatches and stuff....man I have been obsessed with lip products lately, and especially coral ones! I don't know why, and it's weird because I always thought coral wouldn't suit my skintone, but I actually think it kind of brightens it a bit...or maybe that's just wishful thinking. :P
Here's a quick FOTD. I used the bronze colors from my new palette, and I think I am wearing Cool Watermelon on my lips.
Anyways just wanted to share my new stuff, let me know if you guys want reviews of any of it. Actually, I was already planning on some reviews...but let me know anyways in case there's something that I wasn't actually planning on reviewing.
I guess I might as well throw in my NOTW too, since this is already pretty long, one more picture won't hurt (hope you guys aren't bored yet!) I actually have no idea what colors I used, first I used a blue metallice one, don't remeber the name or brand, and then layered this Wet N Wild glitter one on top. In real life this is suuuper pretty! Looks very celestial. Please excuse the messiness, I took this picture right after I was done. And two of my nails broke, so they look pretty crappy : (
Okay, I'm finally done blabbing, sorry this was so long! Oh, be sure to show some love to my sister's blog! Love ya sis! :)
