Lip Monthly! Subscription Review

 

This review for today is going to be all about another Monthly Subscription Service. The one I will be discussing with all of you today is called Lip Monthly and this is a company I have worked with before in the past. Incase you missed the past review about this subscription service allow me to explain how it works for only ($12.95) you will receive 4-5 full sizes lip products in a makeup bag that is valued to be between $35-$55 which is crazy! They also have deals on their webpage if your interested in subscribing for a few months you can get a cheaper rate which is awesome. I think lip products are my favorite beauty products and I use them daily so really I can never have enough of them and I am such a huge fan of trying new stuff out too so this is perfect for me!

 

 

Each month inside your bag there will be a card that looks similar to this one that will list all the products that came inside your bag along with a price for the value of each product you received as well. I always check with this back at the end because I really like being surprised to see what's in my bag each month. So let's take a peek and see what I got!

 

 

The first product is a lip-gloss and this is by the brand Camilla which is brand I have never heard of before this product retails for $14 so just right here you already have your bag paid for just by the first product!

 

As you can see this a gorgeous color. This is probably my favorite color, as far as lip products go. I also tend to wear colors that are really similar to this one. I am super excited to try this one out and tell you all what I think about it. This gloss smelt amazing. It smelt just like fruits and it did smell pretty delicious to be honest lol.

 

Next up we have another product by the same brand which is Camilla. This product is a lipstick and this one retails for $14 as well. I must say I am a fan on how both of these products come inside little boxes. It makes it look a lot nicer.

 

This is the same color as the lip-gloss and it is gorgeous! I am really loving this color. I am really excited to see what this color is going to look like on. I must say the packaging for this lipstick is pretty nice as well. I love the chrome accents on the tube. It adds a lot to this product.

 

Next we have a product by the brand Cargo, this is another brand I have never heard of before but I am excited to try it out and see how I like this product. I love the packaging for this one. It comes in a small tin which is adorable. This product retails for $10

 

 

Well this product caught me completely off gaud. I was expecting a lip balm to be inside but nope they decided to switch it up a little. This a blush and bronzer in a duo. I love how tiny this product it. this makes it perfect for travel or even for just putting it in your purse.

 

The last product in my bag for this month is by the brand Ecolips, this is their ecotints lip balm and the one that I received is in sugar plum. This product retails for $3.49

 

 

As you can see this product looks a little different then your average lip balm. I love the shape of this product as you can see its not round like most lip balms are. I would say this is a little on the oval side. I must say this makes it a lot easier in applying sense your lips are more like this shape, compared to round. I thought this product smelt amazing, it really has a nice mint scent to it.

 

I decided to include some swatches for you all you can see what the lip products look like once they are applied to the skin.

 

The first swatch is the gloss, as you can see this is the most pigmented product that I got. This was just with one swatch of the wand on my hand. I was quite shocked to see how well this showed up.

 

In the middle is the lipstick which you can see is pretty as well. I would say this is a lipstick you could easily build up if you want a more dramatic look or you can just leave it like this for more of an everyday look.

 

The last swatch is the lip balm. As you can see this is a darker color. I would say this is a good tint to your lips and would be perfect if you don't really want to wear much. I was kind surprised to see that this product had some color to it. For some reason I was expecting it to go on clear, but this just makes it better lol.

 

As you can see I really got my money's worth in this months bag. I am highly impressed with this bag and I love all the products that I received this month.

 

 

Make sure you check this subscription service out for yourself. I am sure you will be in love with it just like I am.

Coastal scents! Review

 

For today's review I will be reviewing some makeup products from the brand Coastal Scents. I have heard some amazing things about this brand before, but I haven't had the chance of getting around to trying out any of their products before. The people over at Coastal Scents were super generous and let me pick out some products I wanted to try out and review for all of you today. I am super excited to share all these products with you.

 

I will be reviewing the following products for you all today:

2 eye shadow palettes

1 eyebrow palette

2 lipsticks

& 1 lip-gloss

 

Lets get on to the review!

 

For the first product I will be reviewing today I will start with the jumbo eye shadow palettes. When I think of Coastal Scents this is the first product that jumps into my head. These products have everyone talking and it made me curious to try one of these out for myself. One their site they have so many to choose from so it was a little hard in making my decision. I decided to go with the original 88 color palette. They also offer this same palette in a shimmer palette too. I decided this one would be the best for me and I am so glad that I picked this one. As you can see this palette contains ever color of the rainbow. This is a palette that would be perfect for anyone just because look how many colors are on this palette. If crazy colors isn't your thing you can always just use the more neutral colors which are also included on this palette as well. I think by using this palette the number of eye looks you can achieve are endless. I am so excited to experiment more with these.

 

This palette is amazing quality and super sturdy as well which is somrthng I was a little worried about. On the lid of this palette there is mirror, this is really helpful for when your on the go. That will be one less thing you will need to remember to bring. On each side of the palette there are those little sponge makeup brushes. I am not entirely a fan of these types of brushes so I will not be using these, but that's okay! If I ever lost my brushes it's nice to know that I would have some backup!

Retails:($14.95)

 

 

Here is a swatch I decided to include of some of the colors in this palette. I didn't swatch all of them (obviously) because then we would be here for ever lol. I swatched some colors that I know I would use the most. These are truly gorgeous shades this is just from applying it to my finger then rubbing it across my arm. As you can see these colors are super pigmented. A lot of these colors seem like they would be really buildable which is also really great as well. I am so excited to play around with this palette.

 

The next palette that I received from costal scents is the Think Pink palette

http://www.coastalscents.com/products/think-pink-palette

Retails:($12.95)

 

There are 12 different eye shadow shades in this palette. Pink is my favorite color so I'm constantly wearing it so I am totally in love with this palette. I think they did an amazing job at picking out the shades for this one. You can create so many different looks with this palette. I also love how some of the shades are shimmer, and some are matte at well. As you can see you get pretty much every shade of pink you can think of, from dark pinks to light pinks. You also get white, grey and black too which helps to making these pink shades stand out. You can have a very dramatic eye look with these shades or you can create a simple look too which is perfect. I have already used this shade twice, and both of my looks were so different.

 

 

The next item I have next is called Brow set which is a brow palette

 http://www.coastalscents.com/products/brow-set

Retails:($8.95)

 

Inside this palette it comes with 4 different eyebrow shades, along with a mirror and a dual ended brush. The eye colors in this palette are pretty versatile as well. I think the shades in this palette pretty much anyone can use these. I don't think if anyone else is like me but sometimes I like wearing darker eyebrows and other days I like having them lighter. I have blonde hair so I think I could either way with my eyebrows. I love playing around with makeup and this is going to be the perfect palette to do so.

 

 

 Here is a swatch of three of the colors, and this is just with one swipe as well. These are easily buildable as well, if you are trying to achieve more dramatic brows then this is for you, and if you want more natural brows this is for you as well.

 

I think my most favorite thing about this palette has to be the brush that is included. Most of them time when I purchase any type of palette I usually just end up tossing the brush but that isn't the case with this one. The brush include is an angled brush, which is what I use for my brows anyways. I actually lost my regular eyebrow brush the other day and ended up using this brush instead and I thought it was amazing. It totally did a great job, and now I might just end up using this as my regular brush because it's going to be a little more difficult in loosing and I love how it has a place inside this palette.

 

 

 

The next few products I will be sharing with you all are lip products, which are my favorite as far as makeup products go!

 

I received a lipstick from the line in the color 08

 

http://www.coastalscents.com/collections/makeup-lips/products/lipsticks?variant=12426512388

Retails:($3.95)

 

As you can see this color is a darker purple color. These are my favorite shades to wear I think it goes good with my skin tone and my eye color as well. I just love the pop of color you can create with wearing a shade like this one. I have to say the packaging for these lipsticks are pretty on point lol. I love the shininess of each one, they are truly gorgeous.

 

 

 

Up next we have another lipstick, this one is just in a different shade. This one is in the color 02

http://www.coastalscents.com/collections/makeup-lips/products/lipsticks?variant=12426512004

Retails:($3.95)

 

This shade is totally different then the previous one that I shared with you all. This one is a mauve pink color which is perfect for spring. This color can go with pretty much anything which is really great when pairing your looks with all your outfits. I think my favorite thing about these lipsticks are the fact that they don't have a point to them. Most lipsticks are cut on an angle which I hate because it makes it a lot more difficult to apply in my opinion. The way these are I think makes them really easy to use. They almost make me think of lip balm just a lot more pigmented.

 

 

Here are the swatches of both the colors I received. As you can see both of these colors are extremely pigmented. I also found that both colors are extremely buildable especially the lighter shade. I have to say this is probably one of the best lipstick lines I have tried. I am amazed with the color payoff and I love how these make my lips feel. They are super hydrating and make your lips feel great instead of dying them out, like a lot of lipsticks are notorious for doing. I just can't get over how inexpensive these are.

 

 

The last product I have to share with you all is a lip gloss. There lip glosses go by the name of Smacks. These come in a wide range of color so it was extremely hard to pick out the perfect color for myself sense I loved pretty much the entire line of these lol.

 

http://www.coastalscents.com/collections/makeup-lips-gloss/products/smacks-lip-gloss?variant=12426397252

Retails:(3.95)

 

I decided to go with the color "Sweet Anna" which is the ultimate pink color. I have been looking everywhere for a color like this because I am in love with it. I think this color is great for so many looks and it compliments so many eye colors too. I think this is the perfect girly pink color and I am pretty obsessed with this gloss that's for sure. It has been my go to gloss sense I received this in the mail.

 

 

I have never tried any of these glosses so I was just going to assume that this was going to just have a little light pink hint of color to it. To my surprise I am so wrong! These are so pigmented, it almost reminds me of a liquid lipstick, or a lip stain. I was so shocked to see the color pay off of this product. The swatch down below is just with one swipe of the applicator. This color is extremely buildable and if you are trying to achieve a more dramatic effect, this is perfect for you. If you don't really care for wearing lip sticks, and love the look of them. Then this is also the perfect product for you. I am so beyond impressed with this lip-gloss. I will definitely be checking these out in the future.

 

 

That's it for this review! As you can see there are so many amazing products from this brand it's crazy. This isn't even all of them. They even have a lot of other  products such as concealer, foundation, brushes, blush, eye liner, and even soap! This brand is probably one of my favorites now. I am impressed with everything that I received and I highly recommend checking their site out and trying some of these things. I'm telling you, you will be in love with all of them and there is no doubt in my mind.

Love Beauty Outlet! Review! And Coupon Code!

Today I have a very awesome and fun review for all of you from an online shop by the name of Love Beauty Outlet!  The name is just music to my ears lol. Who doesn't like discounted makeup?! I know buying cosmetics online and be a little scary especially when they say discounted. It just makes you wonder how the quality will actually be! I am hear to share my 100% honest experience with you about this company. The reason why all of these cosmetics are so cheap is because  they buy in wholesale and they buy cosmetics that might be discontinued. Sometimes brands just discontinue certain colors of a product, or they discontinue it because it wasn't a big as a hit they were hoping for. I can assure you all the makeup that I got from this website came perfect! Stay tuned to the end up of review for my coupon code that was made for all of you guys so you can get some amazing deals on some makeup products for yourself!

 

 

The first group of products that were sent to me are the Elf lipsticks. They sent me 6 of these total, which are in 2 different colors. If you have never heard of Elf you should! Elf is an amazing brand that is pretty cheap too, but there products work amazing! I usually buy these at Target and they are $1.

 

 

I love how these are packaged up so you don't need to worry about them exploding when they are being shipped to you the two colors that were sent to me are Posh and Nostalgic.

 

This is what they look out of the packaging and I do have to say that I like both of these colors, and I don't have either of them which is a huge surprise to me lol. One is a really nice nude you could wear with pretty much anything and the other is a nice deep red which I think would be perfect for wearing out on the town.

 

Here are some swatches of the two side by side. Please ignore the other colors on my hand from other makeup products lol. As you can see the darker color posh applied really nicely with lots of pigmentation in this one. I like this color. I think I like the color better when it is applied. The nude color you can barely see, but that's okay I think this might be a good color as a base.

 

 

The next group of products I almost fainted when I seen these in the package from them! These are the color whispers by Maybelline, and these are my all time favorite lipsticks ever! I have so many of these it's not even funny lol. I have spent so much money on these in the past. I wish I would have discovered this website a long time ago. I would buy these from Target and Walmart for around $7-$8 a piece.

 
 

 

They sent me a pretty big variety of all of these lipsticks which makes me really excited lol. They included 5 of them, and 4 of them are different shades. They really did an amazing job at including a wide range of colors for me!

 

Below is a picture of some swatches that I did so you can see for yourself how amazing these lipsticks are. They included a dark red color, two lighter nude colors and a pink color. I think my favorite is the pink one. I will be sure to get all kinds of use out of all of these and I am so excited! These apply so nicely and easily it's almost like applying a chapstick and color pay off is incredible.

 

I'm sure you all have heard of these before. The infamous BabyLips! I am pretty sure I have this entire collection plus a few more lol. I was obsessed with these when they came out, and I have no shame for that lol. If you have never tried these before you are missing out! These are super hydrating and they smell amazing, they have made so many different kinds of these and now they have some that have a little tint of color to them.

 

The two that they sent me are in peach. Let me just tell you these smell amazing! I think that is my favorite thing about Babylips and the adorable packaging lol. I normally get these from Walmart, Target, Cvs and other places for around $3 and on this website they have them as low as $1.50 which is incredible.

 

L'Oreal is up next! They sent me two of their infallible lip glosses. They sent me two of the same color which is perfectly fine with me! I'm not even going to lie when I seen this color I thought it was going to look just like this on my lips, which I wasn't to excited for lol. I was wrong though after I applied this I was glad to see what it really looked like. I did make a picture o a swatch but then realized it was pointless sense you could barely see this product. It just has a nice shimmer to it, it doesn't really give off much color. I think this would be perfect on top of any lipstick, or it would also be good alone too!

 

I have 4 more L'Oreal products up next and these ones didn't have the name written on it, so I apologize in knowing this name.  They sent me 4 and 2 of them are different colors. The two colors sent to me are Lilac ever after and Pink resistance.

 

 

To be honest with you I don't think I have ever tried these before or have actually heard of them either, but I could be wrong. I like trhe shades that they sent. They are pretty similar but these are shades that are very easy to wear and I'm excited to use these. I really like the formula of the glosses of these ones. I think these will have amazing wear, which is nice because I hate to re apply lip products!

 

 

 

Sadly I am at the last product to review for all of you and that is some Maybelline nail polishes called color show. They sent me some awesome colors! All of these which I would definitely wear! I remember seeing these in the store and wanting to try them, but not buying them because of the price. I remember them costing around $7 a piece which can get expensive especially if you want to get a few to try out.

 

 

I decided to show you all what these look like too on a white piece of paper, with one gentle swatch. As you can see these have pretty good color payoff too. I don't even think you would need to apply two coats either which is awesome! I love the colors that they sent me. I think the silver one is pretty opaque but would make an awesome top coat on any other color. I think they other colors are amazing and would be great alone.

 

 

I am super obsessed with this website and I really hope to work with them again! I think the deals they have on their website are truly amazing. This is the place if your looking to try out some new makeup and not break the bank! They have a wide range of awesome beauty products and I hope you take advantage of this amazing coupon code they created for me so all you guys can use!

 

"Dani15" will give you 15% off your entire purchase! How awesome is that you will really be scoring with this deal!

 

I also want to thank everyone at Love Beauty Outlet so including me in reviewing your shop! I hope to feature you again soon!
