Drunk Elephant favorites and real life reviews!
Read MoreMy love for hats continues! I am obsessing over the snake print band on the one below 😍
I have linked a few of my current favorite beauty products and a few I want to try as well as bags and accessories!
Happy Shopping!
Everyone including me loves a good deal, especially when it comes to beauty products because I know you all have like 2-3 lipsticks MINIMUM in your purse right now! Haha I can't be the only one! I do wear a lot of lip color because I love it and it is the easiest way to look put together when you are feeling like a hot mess. So I went to Target...like every other day 🙄 and decided to do a post like this for you guys. One because it was fun and also so I could just buy more lip color! I just walked through the isles and picked up colors based on what I like! Here is what I ended up with.
COVERGIRL Melting Pout Matte-Current Nude $6.99
I love the color but the smell kind of bugs me. Smells a bit like plastic or something. It is soft and goes on fairly easy, but does not last very long. VERDICT: Wouldn't buy again.
COVERGIRL Melting Pout Gel Liquid Lipstick-150 Raspberry Jelly $6.99
I did not love it the first time I put it on but after you wet the sponge applicator it goes on so smooth and the color is bold and so pretty. It makes your teeth look so white which is always a win in my book! The color lasted about 2-3 hours for me and that was eating and drinking! VERDICT: I would buy it again if I wanted to find an inexpensive bold color!
REVLON Ultra HD Metallic Matte Lip color- 680 Glam $7.99
Love this one too! Smells like something yummy/fruity and goes on so smooth! This color is the perfect shade of pink too. It doesn't last very long, like maybe 3 hours or so, but it's texture, smell and color make up for it! VERDICT: Love it and would buy it in several colors!
L'OREAL Infallible Paints- 314 Spicy Blush $7.99
This one for me was the most moisturizing one! Went on really smooth and made my lips feel and remain soft. Pleasant smell too. It doesn't claim to be long lasting so I did have to reapply throughout the day. VERDICT: I like it and would buy it again!
NYX Lingerie- 02 LIPLI $6.99
I dislike this applicator wand. It is too skinny and hard. It is a matte color and I do love the color and it stays on really well! Mine lasted about 5+ hours with no problem but it is a tad dry/sticky if that makes sense?! VERDICT: I would not buy any more but I will use the one I have.
NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream- 18 Prague $6.49
Obsessed with this color! So bright and bold, stays on fairly well but does not claim to be long lasting. Has a yummy vanilla smell to it. VERDICT: I would totally buy this again!
MAYBELLINE Vivid Matte Liquid- 02 Grey Envy $6.99
Super thick and creamy, goes on smooth and drys matte. Great neutral color. I do not love it but it does keep your lips soft as well, but it left mine a tad numb/tingly without the plumping. Which is did not indicate it did. Pretty non-descript. VERDICT: I would probably not buy this again.
MAYBELLINE Super Stay Matte Ink- 65 Seductress $7.99
My favorite. I do not love the wand to apply it with but it stays on my lips forever! Which is what it claims to do! I wake up with hot lips as I call it! Haha. I am in love with this neutral color. VERDICT: I am looking forward to scooping up more colors and actually went back and bought the color lover 😉
If you have any other favorites that I didn't scoop up let me know! I am always down for another trip to Target! XO lovelies!
Snow day or shopping day? You choose! Haha. I am not very good at sitting still so we may venture out later if and when the roads clear up a bit....maybe just to get a coffee or a treat!
Most of you wanted to see my newest beauty obsessions from my Instagram stories, so here they are! This is what I am using right now on my face! I also love the contour slide from Maskara Beauty in the color Olive, and the eyeshadows: Sabrina and Penny. ( I can't link them but have a gal off you need one).
I also picked up some great lipstick organizers and clear lids for my MAC lipsticks....game changer! If you have something that I need to try, let me know!! XOXO
