Almay Lip Vibes Looking A Lot Like Sephora Lipstories

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

Almay Lip Vibes Lipstick ($7.99) launches in 24 glorious shades for Fall 2018 but why am I feeling like they look a lot like Sephora #Lipstories Lipstick!? Maybe the colorful barrels? But unlike Sephora’s version these lipsticks are destination inspired but more about motivation. Each lipstick has a colorful barrel with an inspiration quote like, “Worry Less!” and “Be Fearless”.

The lipsticks are available in matte and cream finishes as well as two shades which act as lipstick toppers. What these topper shades do is unknown! Do they morph colors? Make them darker and lighter? Add shimmer? Who knows….! I’ll have to see these in person and see what it is exactly the toppers do.

It’s pretty amazing that they launched these in such an extensive shade range! I guess they are around to stay and will be part of the permanent collection. In other news, they are damn colorful for Almay who typically plays it packaging safe. Obviously, like most drugstore brands lately, they have their eye on a younger consumer with this launch!

Either way, I’m willing to check them out and see if they are worthy of your money!

What do you think of the Almay Lip Vibes Lipsticks?

Almay Velvet Foil Cream Shadow for Fall 2018

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

Almay Velvet Foil Cream Shadow ($7.99 on sale for $4.79) are a new cream metallic eyeshadow that launched in 12 shades for Fall 2018 this morning! And the best part is they are on sale as well thanks to the Ulta Fall Haul Sale!

This new long-wearing cream eyeshadow has a velvet texture that provides intense, metallic color with a formula that promises crease-proof, smudge-proof, and fade-proof wear.

I’m actually very excited to check these out and the sale price is pretty awesome! I’m going to pick up a few shades. I used to hate cream eyesahdows but I grew to love them as they are just so easy to use without a ton of know how. A little dab, a quick blend, and you have a perfect eye look in seconds. No brushes needed!

Well, that is, of course, if the Almay Velvet Foil Cream Shadow has a good formula!

Almay Velvet Foil Cream Shadow are available now!

Any shades you’re liking?
