A Few Of My Favorite Cosmetic Things Lately

Here are a few of the things that I currently cannot get enough of of at the moment. All vegan and cruelty free - duh!

Lolita: I know - not purple! Shocking! However this is a pretty color that is in the neutral range making it work for a lot of people. This color sells out fast and I was floored when right before the holidays I saw Sephora have a handful in. This is the newest version of Lolita which is a brown-pink rose color and i hope it stays this way because I have been wearing it almost every day!

Makeup Revolution Blush in Nude: . It is hard to find blush that suits my skin tone. Most stuff is to pink or light for me. So this is a nice shade that goes on well and blends nicely. The blush is very pigmented and a little goes a long way. it looks a lot more brown in the photo and pot and I initially bought it to contour but it has a lot of pink once on the face. Also it only $5! Score!

Nag Champa incense roll on perfume oil by Tattooed Geek Boutique: Right before I got this I was burning incense and after being in the same room with it my clothing/hair became softly scented. I was thinking how it would be nice to have it in perfume form. This roll on captures it perfectly - like hanging out for a bit in your fave new age shop. Lightly scented and not overwhelming.

More Kat Von D Lip Colors

Susperia (liquid lipstick) on my lips. I wanted something fun to balance and not compete with my brows. It is a nice muted medium purple shade.

I had to go get Homegirl lipstick. The color is a nice dark burgundy. It reminds me of my junior high go to  WnW with black eyeliner as lip liner days. However like with the other dark colors in this line it gets blotchy after a few hours and wear away clumpy. Also it applies patchy - darker in some spots. I seen this happen in swatches - I thought it was bad lighting - nope.

I got a mini Lovecraft with my beauty points. It is a nice nude and wears better than the darker shades in the line.

I am not really great with the selfies-thing but want to share some makeup looks and I hope you dig them. If your bank account only allows one lip color product I would go for a shade in the liquid lipstick range. They wear better and do not fade into a clumpy mess. I plan on getting a few more colors in the liquid lipstick range when I get a chance until then I have plenty of colors to play with!

Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick Review

I am in love with Kat Von D's Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks. I have two colors and want to get more.

I bought L.U.V. first - because it stood out being dubbed a 'rich violet' color. Right now I am all about the purples!

I really liked L.U.V. so when I had a Sephora return a few days later I bought Ayesha because I have been wanting a lavender color that stood out (most have been pale).

After trying KVD's lipsticks and finding them a bit drying I was hesitant to try the Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks. I am glad I did because they work out (for me) better than the lipsticks. The wand applicator makes them easy to apply. The formula is wet letting you apply it smoothly and dries to a matte finish. You have about a minute window before the color sets into place. The colors stay on a long time and the slim lip gloss container is super portable. Bonus they do not have a funky taste or smell - important for me!

I have a few more colors on my wish list that I will pick up as soon as my wallet allows me to. A tip is to order them directly from Sephora - all the Sephora locations I have been to have super picked over displays.
