STAR WARS: The Force Awakens COVERGIRL The Super Sizer Mascara

 

I was super excited when I stumbled upon the STAR WARS Limited Edition COVERGIRL section at my local CVS about three weeks ago. I got so caught up in the packaging and decided I must get my hands on this stuff and the first thing I grabbed was my beloved The SUPER Sizer mascara in very black. This mascara has become one of my favorite mascaras this past year and the STAR WARS packaging made it even better! COVERGIRL has compiled a collection of ten different packages, but of course the one I had to buy said: “INDEED YOU ARE POWERFUL” on the back of the tube.

Oh, so you want to know more about the mascara itself?  Well,  I love this mascara for many reasons. It makes my lashes look super thick and lush, doesn’t flake off and I love the style of the brush. It is definitely my go to mascara. It is also easy to take off at the end of the day. As far as drugstore mascaras go, this is my favorite. It’s one truly amazing mascara that is a FORCE to be reckoned with!

NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer

 

I’m always on the hunt for a super moisturizing but highly pigmented concealer. I haven’t been sleeping well for months and with the sudden death of a good friend, which has made getting a good nights sleep even worse (and has entailed a lot of crying) I needed the BEST concealer known to man kind. I had purchased this NARS concealer a few weeks back and because of a super hectic schedule, I have been having a really tough time getting caught up on my blog posts and reviews. I APOLOGIZE! With that being said, it wasn’t until this week that I truly realized how fabulous the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer is. I purchased mine in the color Vanilla (I’m an NC25 in MAC for color reference). The color is perfect and the texture of this concealer is the best I have tried in a long time. It’s hard to find a moisturizing concealer that doesn’t settle in fine lines AND covers up those super dark circles. This concealer does both beautifully! It definitely brightens my entire eye area and stays virtually crease free for hours. So ladies, if you’re tired eyes are getting the best of you like mine, pick up this little gem, you won’t be disappointed-

Wet n’ Wild Megalast Lipcolor in Sugar Plum Fairy

 

Sorry folks for the hiatus! I have been extremely sick over the past few weeks. So pardon the gaunt look. I could barely swallow, no less eat. But thankfully I’m on the up and up now! Whew- Well, It’s that time of year again to pull out your favorite rich hues. I’m madly in love with Megalast Lipcolor in Sugar Plum Fairy by Wet n’ Wild. It is the perfect cross between a rich burgundy and a plumish violet. The color is so rich and pigmented, people won’t help but notice your smile! I love paring a plum lip with a gold metallic eye. There is something about the combo that just warms up this look without going overboard. I used my basic clear lipliner (as I always do) and then layered on this rich lip color that lasts for hours. What I love about Wet n’ Wild lipsticks is they never dry out my lips and you definitely can’t beat the price. For $1.99 why not pick up one in every color?
