Jeffree Star Liquid Lipstick Review

Reccently I had the opportunity to try out Jeffree Star's Velour Liquid Lipsticks. I have only tried two of his lipstick shades. I know that in the past with other cometic lines sometimes the formula will vary from lip shade to lip shade. I am only reviewing the two lip colors I have tried.

First let's talk packaging. I personally really like it. The only thing I don't like, and I'm sad to say it are all the stars on the lid. I totally I understand why they are on the bottle and could get 2 or 3, but I just think all those stars almost make the lipstick tube or bottle look cheesy. Just my opinon. It doesn't effect the product. With that said, the bottles themselves are simple. No crazy shapes or designs. GOOD! I like it. I like the neon pink caps and clear wands. I also like that the wands are slightly curved to better fit the shape of one's lips. 

So the two shades I managed to get my hands on are Blow Pony and I'm Royality. Both of these shades are beautiful shades of purple. 

Blow Pony: "The pastel neon is a gorgeous shade of matte lavender." -Jeffree Star website
As it is said on Jeffree's website is it a beautiful shade of matte lavender. It is a real lavender shade and just as it is claimed it dries with a matte finish.



I'm Royality: "A Royal Purple for any diva that wants to make a statement." -Jeffree Star website
This shade reminds me of Prince. Haha. It is a wonderful shade of dark royal purple. This liquid lipstick dries with a matte finish as well. This is my perfered shade out of the two simple because of the color.



Over all I enjoyed both liquid lipsticks. They worked great and were exactly what they were made out to be by Jefree as well as other artist and reviewers. If you are interested in puchasing these liquid lipsticks you can find them at jeffreestarcosmetics.com. They cost $18.00 US each.

I will personally go out and seek more of these liquid lipsticks. I really enjoyed using them. They applied nice and smooth. They lasted a really long time, all day! Plus I absolutely love some of the shades Jeffree has to offer. If you have any questions or comments please leave them in the box below.

Nails... Dragon Scales, Mermaid Tails. Fairy Dust, Sparkly Nails

This month I chose to go with a some what more simply designed nail. With that said I am still in love with them. They remind me of dragon scales, no wait mermaids tails, no wait fairy dust, no wait... Theysparkly  and shiney nails are eye catching in any lighting. I love they way they sparkle and shine from any angle.

These nails were created by using a gel coat and them sticking the glitter peices to my nails by either dipping my nail into the glitter or tapping it onto the nail. She used a combanation of glitters. A super fine purple sparkle and some big chunky green glitter peices. The larger glitter has a duo chrome shine basically giving off multiple colors depending on the light and angle you are looking at it from. When you hold a few of these glitter pecies in your hand they actually look purple, so be careful when choosing a color. Looks can be deceiving. My nails were sealed and toped off with another gel coat to make them smooth and shiney.


As always my girl Lynn at Y2K nails in Brampton made these happen. She is fantastic and would recommend her to anyone, but especially those looking to try or do something new. These nails are super fun and really well done. They always last me at least 4 weeks. ( :( I know, I know. Get em filled.)

Next time we will be kickin it a little old school. I plan on getting some 3D art so make sure your looking out for that. If you have any questions or comments please leave them in the comment box below.

Nails... Purple Water Marbling

I recently got my nails done, which of course means a polish change. I decided to go with a light lilac purple from OPI called Do You Lilac It? (Unfortunately I do not have a picture of nails before the marbling design.)

After rocking Lilac nails for a couple days I wanted to jazz them up by adding a design. I choose to do a water marbling effect simply because it is easy & effective. I also wanted to create different layers of color, which can be done using this effect.

I hope to have a 'how-to water marble nails' blog posted soon.

 

To create this design I used the following polishes...
-Do You Lilac It? by OPI
-Berry Smooth by Avon
-Violet by Joe Fresh
-Beauty Secrets Clear Hardener Top Coat

Today's Look... Purple Smoke

Today was a beautiful spring Sunday. It was a relaxing at home day but still felt the need for a bit of color. I chose to use Purple because I haven`t in such a long time. Not too much of a story or theme today.

If you have any suggestions or requests for different themes, colors, or products you would like to see please comment below.

Nails... OPI's Do you Lilac it?

Today I got my nails done, and fell in love with a new color. It’s by O.P.I and called Do You Lilac It? Too cute!

This is only a quick post so I really didn’t take too many pictures. (I hit my nails on the way home anyways… Fail.)



After I rock these nails just the way they are, I am going to try my lilac-purple China Glaze Metals Crackle on them. I think it’s going to look really sharp with the petty light purple underneath. Can’t wait to share!!

Today's Look... Poison Plum

Today's look, like many of my looks recently is based off simplicity and time saving skills. In this look I really only use one color on my eye, however the way it's blended in along with liner and mascara gives it a finished look.

Here is what I came up with...

 

(I apologize for the quality of my photos ahead of time. Truth be told I wasnt even going to post this blog. I was having a horrible picture day. :/)

Bloggers Obsession: Nitro:licious2046, Caqui, & All My Purple Life...

A unique lip gloss available in a wide variety of colours that can create a high gloss, glass-like finish or a subtle sheen. Designed to be worn on its own, over Lip Pencil or Lipstick, Tinted Lipglass is the perfect product for creating shine that lasts. It's pigmented, very shiny and can impart subtle or dramatic colour. It contains Jojoba Oil to help soften and condition the lips. Tinted Lipglass is packaged in a convenient bottle with a sponge tip applicator that provides a quick, smooth, even application.

A little over a month ago I had written about a new collection MAC was coming out with. The Blogger Obsessions collection is now out, and splashing across the faces of people all over.

Unfortuanly because of the postal strike we were having over here, it took much longer to recieve packages. Today I finally got the two lipglasses I had ordered.

If you go back to my MAC's new collection Bloggers Obsession, you can get a full down low on the collection. I ended up going with Nitro:licious2046, Caqui, and All My Purple Life.
