Revlon Lip Butters

I was both excited and hesitant when I heard about Revlon Colorburst Lip Butters. Hesitant because this is something that's been done before with meh results and excited because maybe this would be better than past products. Revlon's Lip Butters are a balm with a tinted base, both moisturizing and full of color. After testing out Peach Parfait and Lollipop I can say I am very impressed and happy with the results! As a side note I originally bought Cupcake but the color was so gross, it looked like dried lip skin, that I had to return it!

 Peach Parfait, a warm orange base with gold shimmer. Lollipop, a magenta.

I found the packaging to be pretty cute as well. The cover is see through, the color matching the lip butter, with a criss cross quilt design. Revlon Colorburst Lip Butters retail for $7.99 at Walgreens and I believe Revlon will be on sale buy 1 get 1 50% off this week.

As another side note I work at Walgreens and today was truck day. After rummaging through the cosmetic totes I saw some of the new Milani nail polishes and took a few pictures!

Aren't they pretty?! Enjoy Bloggerettes!

I mean my, my, my, my you're like pelican fly!

I was fortunate enough to pick up the OPI Nicki Minaj collection a couple weeks back. I think this is the first full collection of anything that I knew I NEEDED to have! It's made up of three cremes Pink Friday a baby pink, Fly a dark dusty teal, and Did It On 'Em a chartreuse yellow/green. Also 2 glitters Metallic 4 Life a black jelly with silver big hex glitter and small square glitter, and Save Me a blue and holographic bar glitter with small silver glitter in a clear base. And to wrap it up Super Bass, a bright magenta shatter. Save Me is the whole reason this collection stood out for me. It truly is lovely. I couldn't wait to use them but didn't want to do skittles. So I decided to do a water marble with the three cremes, a layer of Save Me, then a layer of Super Bass, and to finish it off an accent finger in Metallic 4 Life.

It was so hard trying to get a good picture of this mani. I was so proud of it! I really enjoyed this collection and Nicki Minaj is my guilty pleasure. I purchased my set online via a Facebook friend so I'm not sure if this collection is currently at Ulta. But I suggest getting it asap bloggerettes!

I Love Matte

Wet n Wild came out with a 2011 holiday Walgreens exclusive palette called I <3 Matte. It's an 8 pan palette and entirely matte! Some stores may still have it in stock and if so it retails for $4.99. Shadows are swatched over Too Faced Shadow Insurance.

Shadows are swatched left to right exactly in the order they are in the palette. Build up was surprisingly easy and smooth. I have yet to use this palette in a look but I can't wait to use it. The only matte shadows I have are my Inglots and most palettes come with a black. It's nice having some new colors to add to my matte collection. Were you able to get this palette? What are your thoughts? To get off topic for a bit, I love Disney! My old tv has a built in VCR player so I'm watching 101 Dalmations. I have found my spirit animal, lol. Rolly, the chubby pup who's forever hungry! What's your favorite Disney movie? Mine is a tie, Beauty and the Beast and Alice in Wonderland! Have a great night Blogerettes.

Duped

Zoya did some amazing flash promos for the month of December and I was one of the many who could not catch a break, lol. Though I love the brand I typically don't purchase from their site unless they have an amazing deal. One of my biggest lemmings is Ivanka, a beautiful green sparkle. I decided to play around with my stash to see if I could either layer or franken a dupe. After some practice I found the perfect layering combo! One layer of OPI Gargantuan Green Grape Matte with two layers of Orly Halley's Commit. To make this even more obnoxious, lol, I added a layer of Essie Shine of the Times.

This combo was very bright because of GGG being a base while Halley's Commit brought the sparkle. I think this combo was a great way to end December 2011. I hope everyone isn't too hungover today. I was way to sick from my flu to do anything more than take my cold medicine and eat soup. More napping is definitely in my future, lol.
