(Left to Right) Heavenly Pink #70, Mint Dream #30, Turquoise Breeze #55, Lilac Cloud #50, Bronzer in "Medium" #25



Suede Sensation #20

These are awesome! Super whipped texture, and smooth to apply. They last a long time and hold on to shadow well. Each color has a sparkly duo tone, but not overly glittery. There is sparkle but not big chunks. I can't believe I found these at my Dollar Tree, so I made sure to get every color. These are really great buy for only $1.00. I'll be more likely to try more of these in the future for good eyeshadow base.

Loreal Colour Fresco in "Shivering Vine"

This color green is gorgeous in person. It looks more olive green in the natural light, but comes out more evergreen in pictures. Also a shade stick I highly recommend these for bases. I get asked a lot how I get my eyeshadow to pop, I tell people to use all types of bases. Bases really do help for long lasting wear as well. I find when I go to the club, the better the base the better it stays in the dancing sweat. lol!

Maybelline Unstoppable Shade Sticks
(Left to Right) Continuous Cashmere & Steadfast Suede

Wooo these are my favorite!! when Maybelline says on the packaging "Unstoppable" man, they sure do mean it! I had these swatched on my hand, washed dishes and they were still there. It was amazing. I had to use a makeup wipe to finally remove from my hand. I'm very very impressed by these shadesticks, and hopefully I'll be able to find more.

Date Night Look and Sally Hansen Swatches & Review (Dollar Tree!)

I did this look to go out on a date with my honey to see Ninja Assassin. Movie was ehh. I love martial arts movies, but this didn't impress me. We still had a nice time and had some goood nachos lol.

I recently went to the Dollar Store with my honey who pointed out these beautiful Sally Hansen lip glosses. They are quite larger than most lip glosses and for a dollar...pshh don't have to ask me twice lol. I wasn't sure what to expect but I have heard in the past that Sally Hansen lip glosses were very pigmented. I can honestly say that these lip glosses are amazing. The pigmentation are way better than any MAC lip glass I've purchased. The red is so gorgeous in person. Each totally multidimensional in color. The pink (Orchid) has a gold shimmer to it but not like glitter clumps like MAC dazzle glass. The nude rose color (Ginger) is my favorite after the red. It's sooo beautiful in person. I need to go back for a second purchase, because I can't get over how great these are. I will be probably trying more lip glosses from Sally Hansen. I know you guys will love these and more important they are affordable! I mean for $1.00 they really really shine.
