Revlon Lip Butter Swatches & Review

When Revlon came out with their original Colorburst Lipsticks, I was all over them. They are one of my favorite drugstore lipstick formulas. When I saw that Revlon had come out with Colorbust Lip Butters, I was so excited to try them out. I am absolutely in love with the formula and pigmentation of these lip butters. I hope you guys all try out these lip butters and fall in love with them as well! (:

MAC Me Over Haul

Over the course of two days, I drove myself about 30 minutes to my local MAC store to buy the latest makeup from MAC's MAC Me Over Collection and to also get a "makeover". The girl who gave me a makeover was gorgeous, but she was trying very hard to sell me eyeshadows because when I told her that I already picked up all the shadows that I wanted from that collection and that my collection of eyeshadows was pretty large, she would pick out colors and asked if I had them. When I said I did, she would go back and pick out another color. Anyways, here a photos and swatches of what I picked up from this collection.


From Left to right: Runaway, Oh Oh Oh, and Offshoot Lipstick,

L-R: Creamy Bisque, Moleskin, Mythical, Carbonized

Back To School: 5 Easy Hairstyles

I know many of you are dreading going back to school or some might already be in school. However, just because you’d rather press snooze then get up early to get ready for school, don’t let your hair style suffer because of it! Each of these styles in this video should take you less then 5 minutes, except for the fishtail pigtails, which would take longer. You can always shorten the time by only doing one braid. Anyways I hope you guys enjoy this first edition of my Back To School mini series! (:
