My Favorite Makeup Collections on Youtube.

0

Sometimes the only thing you can do is watch someone else's makeup collection and drool.


There are a times when you just want to shut the world out and watch some amazing makeup collections. aka errday yall. So i have a list of some of my favorites to watch. 

MakeupNeverSleeps

This one from Rachel is hands down my favorite of the bunch.  A little known (widely known and acknowledged) is that I have a mild (severe) case of OCD. All teh pretties in a row, matching, in pristine condition..... give me just all the lyfe. so buckle your seat belts for 40 mins of makeup heaven. 

SO the XX-Large Collections.

TotalMakeupJunkie101

Eshani has just errthang. wow. The thing that i like most about Eshani's collection is that she has a mix of drugstore and department store makeup. Which is something I myself struggle with. 


ShadesOfU

What kind of collection will you acquire after years of beauty blogging?? Well Aileen gives us a little glimpse! She also has some non-traditional storage (those cute little buckets to start with). I honestly kinda want to metaphorically roll around in it. 



MaggiesMakeupTV

Maggie embraces her love of makeup palettes.....and i like that. We have that in common. She also has an interesting way of storing her makeup by brand, and by product. so for example all the companies under the Estee Lauder brand are grouped together, by product. 








TaraBayZ

just yAsssSssssS honey child theres 3 parts..... TaraBAbyZ. No words... can i come over for a playdate?


My Boo-Thangs...



DustyOHunter

I feel like ive been watching Dusty for days, no no for years. Makeup Artist, Musician, long lost  blonder skinnier funnier twin.....ya know whatevZ. Bottom line if your not followin Dustin Hunter you dont know what up. POINT. BLANK. PERIOD.



MekaMeeks

A lovely friend from IG. Meka has a great collection has a good mix of drugstore and department store. She is beginning to dip her toes into the luxury brands. AAaaaAAANNNddd she has a connection to Tennessee, so.... you never could tell, we could be related.


AshTagMakeupLove

And finally one of my best friends, Ash!! This sweetheart is so kind and caring, and loves her some makeupZ. She is kind of new to the youtube game but she id definitely leaving her mark. She is moving right now, but will be filming another collection soon, so check this one out in the mean time.!!

DrugStore Gems: Maybelline Color Elixir Lip Color

2


Maybe its Maybelline, and maybe it doesn’t suck!!!!


Shocker, Surprise, Hell  just might be experiencing a frost. I like them!! I orginally only picked up one (as you should always do when trying out new formulas from any brand at any price range). I got Vision inViolet 040 (obvs there really wasnt any other option). And I really do like it. 





The formula is smooth but thick. When im researching products to buy I often turn to the the all knowing internet, and I saw one review say that these where water thin..... What was she trying ‘cause these babies is THICK. Thick but not sticky, kind of cushy similar to Fresh Sugar Lip Balm if it was a liquid, which its so soft it almost is.... #tangent Sorry.





The thickness is understandable considering how these are marketed as a lipcolor balm, with concentrated pigment. I also found these deceptively moisturizing, yah know what I mean?? Yes, no, Maybe?? What I mean is that they feel great on, very comfortable but after they wear away there is not true lasting moisturizing feeling. 


The texture on these babies does lend itself to a downside.... Or 3. The thickness can (hmmm how could you describe it....) thin out once it warms up so there is a tendency to bleed, and pool in the corners of your mouth #seXXXy. As moisturizing as they feel, they don't last long 30-45 mins MAX. Like also did I mention that they is THICK..... theres no way you can forget that you have these little babies on, There is obviously something on your lips.


So I went back and got 2 more. This time I picked up Rose Redefined 090, and Raspberry Rhapsody 030. I might pick up Dashing Orchid 035, but im not to sure I have a lot of lip products. 






What Maybelline Says:

Fall under the spell of the elixir effect
Hyper-saturated color, ultra cushiony feel
The new hypnotic lip sensation
Why You'll Love It

A trio of concentrates delivers the color of a lipstick, the cushiony care of a balm, and the glass shine of a gloss
Our exclusive smoothing angora brush delivers a polished , even application and smoothing sensation to lips

For Best Results
Apply lipcolor with applicator wand starting in the center of your upper lip. Work from the center to the outer edges of your lip, following the contours of your mouth. Then glide across the entire bottom lip.



If your looking for a drugstore option of a true to color moisturizing lipgloss give these a try I actually (and I cant believe im going to say this....) really do enjoy them, they are just lovely.

XOXO

HaulView: Recently Acquired Beauty Items and Initial Thoughts

1

Stuff, Thangs.....





I have some accumulated haulage to share today. This has been over the last few weeks and maybe a month or more, and while i've played with them, i am not ready to give a full blown, in yo face review yet.

The Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blushes. $35



I got Dim Infusion and Ethereal Glow. Hourglass is really going all in on this Ambient Lighting thang, aint they? So far im loving these just as much as i love the Ambient Lighting powders. Which is a good thing. 

What Hourglass says:
A groundbreaking hybrid that combines the customized lighting effects of Ambient Lighting Powder with a spectrum of breathtakingly modern hues for seamless, soft-focus, and multidimensional color.



Bite Beauty Matte Creme Lip Crayon. $24




I picked up Satsuma and Grape.

Oh My God Becky, look at this pigment.... These are Limited Edition, i mean obvi err good thang is. So get'em while you can!! The down side is that there are only 6 colors and i only liked these 2 (Which this could be considered an upside to some, just not to me yall)

What Bite Beauty says:
A moisture-rich, matte-finish lipstick with a delicious citrus scent. 



Bite Beauty Luminous Creme Lipstick Duo. $12






I got the Vivid. (like for real yall have we met before? This was obviously the ONLY choice yall) This is a duo ended lipstick, i kinda feel like this is a deluxe deluxe sample, if that makes sense. IT contains Violet and Palomino, 

What Bite Beauty says:
A bite-sized lipstick duo of contrasting shades. 








Sephora Collection Rouge Infusion Lip Ink. $14

I got Magenta Ink, Fuchsia Concentrate, and Cherry Nectar. i Will be doing a full review on these definitely. I started with one, and went back for more yall.

What Sephora says:
A zero-texture lip ink that leaves the lips soft, bathing them in intense color. 



Benefit Girl Meets Pearl. $0

There was a 500 point perk at my local SiJCP, that included a full size of Girl Meets Pearl, a deluxe sample of Benetint, and a sample size Badgal (which btw'Z if you havent tried, get on that yall). I hoard Sephora points like i'm preparing for the zombie apocalypse yall. So i usually only trade them in when theres something amazing, or something full size. 

What Benefit says:
For a delectable glow, fancy up with this golden-pink liquid pearl luminizer. Its sheer, light-reflecting formula in a fresh, raspberry scent glides on smoothly for a breathtakingly radiant complexion. Wear it alone for a youthful dewy glow, or over makeup for lustrous "pearlessence."


What are your last acquisitions? Is there something that you love so much that need to run out and get it like right..... NOWWWW!!!!?? 

XOXO
