Review: Revlon Baby Stick in Tahitian

Hi beauties! I'm here with another product review but sadly this review is more of a rant. I usually try not to post bad reviews cause I don't want to cause bad press for brands, but I feel like this product was so cute that it sucked me in, but didn't deliver. Let me start of by saying, I love Revlon products. Normally, Revlon delivers in terms of great products.  I saw these baby sticks and thought "Oh, these are cute and will probably be a good dupe for the Nars Multiples." Nope...

It's so damn cute though, right? This product claims to be a cream blush that you can also use on your lips.  I thought it would be a great multi-use product, I'm always looking for stuff that will cut down on steps in my daily routine.  Revlon's website says that this blush stick will "give you the perfect flush of color and soft, dewy finish with a non-sticky feel". There's only one problem....this product has no color payoff!!

Can you see any color on my hand? I kept applying this over and over but couldn't get any color payoff.  I thought at first that it was just because I picked up such a light color but I looked up swatches of the brightest pink shade that Revlon has and other bloggers had the same result as I did.  Also, don't attempt to apply it to your lips, it feels very heavy and has a very, very bad taste :(

Alright, rant over. This will definitely be making an appearance in my next "Products I Regret Buying" video.  Save yourself the money and disappointment and pass when you see this cute product at the drugstore.

Heads Up: Lorac on Hautelook!

Hi beauties! I want to give all my savvy shoppers a heads up that Lorac is going to be on Hautelook today at 10 am Central time. If you don't know what Hautelook is, it's a flash sale site that offers name brands for a fraction of the price.  They often have flash sales of TheBalm, Stila, Tarte, Laura Geller and more.  They usually have some good stuff from Lorac so be sure to check it out. Also, be sure to get there when the sale opens because stuff sells out quickly. Happy shopping :)

Sally Hanson Pacific Blue Dupe!

Finally a dupe for the Sally Hanson Extreme Wear color in Pacific Blue. I haven't been able to find that shade anywhere and it looks like amarixe found a dupe. Visit her blog to learn more! amarixe: beauty and lifestyle blog: Nail of the Day: Maybelline Pacific Blues:

New Revlon Lip Butters: Swatches and Review!!

Hi everyone!! Last month, I picked up two of the four new Revlon Lip Butter shades that were released in the new spring collection. I didn't like the other two in the collection, so I didn't purchase them.  I really love the two I picked up though!!

Wild Watermelon is on top and Sorbet is on bottom.

First is Wild Watermelon.

Wild Watermelon is a pretty sheer pinky, orange, red color.  In the tube, it looks true to its name, like the center of a watermelon but it applies very sheer.  It's definitely buildable and I feel like the more wearable color of the two.  It's definitely my favorite of the two as well.

Next is Sorbet.

 



 

This is a really bad picture and I apologize, I took it in a hurry.  Sorbet is a repromoted color that originally came out when the lip butters were first released and Revlon decided to bring it back.  It's a very bright, hot pink color.  Due to the lighting, it appears darker on my lips in the picture but its much lighter and brighter.  I like to layer this with darker glosses to tone the brightness down.

I hope you enjoyed this post and thanks for reading!! More post to come.
