Custom Creations Review

Hmm..I was kind of happy with this at first, but then I went back the next day and wasn't so happy.  I feel like I wasted most of it trying to find the right color. It's not an instant color match, you have to pump out the old stuff first before the new color comes. I realized the color that was my match was actually a mix between the old color and the new color coming out :( . Bottom line, I would suggest buying two colors and mixing them.

Today's finds..

So I usually use Makeup Forever HD foundation (175), but I'm trying to save money, it's about $40. So I decided to try Revlon's Photoready. I've heard good things about Photoready, but there's not much of a color selection. I picked cappucino, knowing the next one was too dark. Capuccino would have worked if it didnt have such an orange tint to it! I can get away with it, but I can tell the difference when I put it on. Here's a picture of it...

So today, I went to target in search of a couple of things. I looked at Revlon's foundations again, hoping that the Colorstay line would have more colors, but no luck, not in the store at least. But I found this Revlon Custom Creations. It has two shades and you turn the knob at the top to make the foundation color lighter or darker. I'm excited to try this one, wish me luck!

Also I found a purple eyeliner and a pink pigment eyeshadow...Here's a picture of the eyeshadow, it's by L'oreal HiP. It also comes with an application brush.

I'll have to make another post  with swatches and product reviews :)

Maybelline Eyestudio

I went to the store the other day because I needed a new gel eyeliner. However, the one I usually use, the L'oreal Hip one was over 10 bucks, so I decided to try something new. I settled on Maybelline Eyestudio. The brush for this gel eyeliner(as seen in the pic) is a lot better than the brush that came with the L'oreal gel liner. Although this brush is better, I still prefer the eyeliner brush I got from the Clinique kiosk. It seems to pick up more which makes it come out a lot darker. As for the gel itself, I think it goes on a little smoother than the L'oreal.

Purple Pleaser

This is one of the nail polishes that I got from my elf mini haul. I like it a lot actually, this is the first time that I'm using it. So far I like the elf nail polishes, they seem to go on pretty smoothly.
For my base coat I used Sally Hansen's Maximum Growth Plus, it's a base and top coat that includes soy protein and vitamins A,C, & E.

I'm only showing my thumb nail in the pic because its the best looking one lol.
