Sally Girl Shadows

So today i went to Sallys Beauty Supply and got 3 of the Sally Girl Eyeshadows. They were CHEAP and i mean CHEAP 99 cents!! I have a membership so they were only 89 cents =D Anyways i picked out a couple beachy looking shades just because haha. I picked out one that reminded me of sand, the ocean, and seashells. I wasnt really expecting much color payoff put i was really impressed! The color is great, they have a nice smooth texture to them also! They have 40 somthing shades and i plan on getting a few more that i liked. I really really like them! Almost forgot, you can attach them to make a palette type thing too! As i get more ill update this post.

Revlon Matte Shadows

Okay so I've heard good things about these new shadows. I'm not necessarily a fan of matte but it was my choice haha, i got them for Easter. I was impressed with the pigmentation of the blue but on the "lime" color it turned out extremely pale. I was disappointed but it still works on the days i don't feel like wearing heavy makeup. I plan on getting Aubergine which is a deep purple and Vintage Lace, a Mac dupe of vanilla in matte form i think! Now i just gotta find a way to wear the blue haha its BRIGHT!!!
Venetian Blue Luscious Lime

these are 4.99 at ulta


***EDIT***



So i finally got the shades i wanted! The Riviera Blue and Aubergine shadows are stubburn when it comes to blending it just takes some practice, but i love them nontheless. Vintage lace on the other hand im not extremely impressed with. I was expecting more color payoff but it still works as a nice matte highlight and blending color.


Over all Ratings:
Pigmentation: 4/5
Blending:4/5
Packaging: 4/5
Price: 5/5

Mac l/s swatches

So today i went to a Mac counter and got two lipsticks!! I wanted more but i was paying so yeah haha! XD
It was between lollypop loving and Sandy B..... i chose Sandy B! i could really tell a difference swatched on the end but there probably would be a big difference on the lips. The Pigmentation is pretty good =]

Which of these two do you like better?!
Do you have any lipsticks you recommend?


Sandy B(1st) is a Frost and Viva Glam V(2nd) is a Lustre
