Rimmel Magnif'Eyes Mono Eyeshadow

Rimmel Magnif’Eyes Mono Eyeshadow ($4.99) are a new single shade eyeshadow that Rimmel launched in the UK a few months ago in nine shades. Magnif’Eyes Mono Eyeshadow are finally finding their way into drugstores here in the US and I couldn’t be happier as I’ve been wanting to try these out for a while.

Single eyeshadow pans might be a hit for Summer 2016 as I’m seeing more and more brands focusing on single shades versus the palette craze we’ve been going through lately. L’Oreal has an entire range of new Colour Riche Mono Eyeshadows they just recently launched and I hope to see Maybelline make some improvement on their singles line as well soon.

I like palettes as much as the next person but sometimes picking and choosing shades you want versus getting a palette full of colors (some of which you might not like or might never use) is sometimes much, much more fun!

Hit or Miss: Lorac Nude Necessities Eyeshadow Palette

hitmisslorac

The Lorac Nude Necessities Eyeshadow Palette released at the start of January and was one of the first Spring 2016 Collection pieces we saw from Lorac. This palette contained 12 gorgeous nude, neutral shades and had me swooning on first sight.

Did you get it?

Was it a hit or miss for you?

I thought it was a miss.

The colors in the palette ended up being too light, too frosty, and I also had a hard time contrasting with any of the shades since they ended up all looking the same on my eyes.

Was the Lorac Nude Necessities Eyeshadow Palette a hit or miss for you?

Flower Color Proof Long-Wear Lip Creme Review & Swatches

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.

Flower Color Proof Long-wear Lip Cremes

Flower Color Proof Long-Wear Lip Creme ($7.98) are a new creamy lip color with a satin finish that launched for Spring 2016 in five shade selections. These caught my eye because they seemed like a nice break from the matte liquid lipsticks we keep seeing every single brand launch. I’m not really all that into satins but creamy, pigmented satins sounded like a refreshing switch up from all the matte.

Let’s take a look!

Too Faced Melted Matte Liquified Long Wear Matte Lipstick Review & Swatches

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.

Too Faced Melted Matte Liquified Long Wear Matte Lipsticks

Too Faced Melted Matte Liquified Long Wear Matte Lipstick ($21) launches in 16 shades selections recently for Spring 2016 at Sephora.com. This formula promises the staying powder of a stain and the color payoff of a liquid lipstick with a matte finish as well as avocado oil and vitamin E to keep lips moist.

I didn’t really love the Too Faced La Matte Color Drenched Matte Lipsticks so I was kinda sorta on the fence about Melted Matte Liquified Long Wear Matte Lipstick. Add in the fact, that Melted Matte Liquified Long Wear Matte Lipsticks aren’t getting the best reviews around plus I dislike liquid lipstick in general and I was a little worried about this purchase.
