Bonita Colors Haul/Review!

Hi Dolls,

I hope everyone is having a great weekend! I went to my local Rite Aid this weekend and discovered this new cosmetic line called Bonita Cosmetics . This is a really cute line and the prices are amazing!
The products that I picked up are the Velvet Lip Creams and the Nail Polishes. See Details Below:

The display for the Velvet Lip Creams 

I picked up the Lip Creams in Hot Damn! and Barbies Muse.

The formula for these lip creams are creamy and the color is very pigmented. 

These dry down to a matte finish. Unfortunately these did not work for me because I have very sensitive skin. These left my lips itching minuets after I applied these to my lips. The prices for these is $2.99.

Hot Damn! is a bright pink red color.

                                               The black and gold packaging feels expensive.

Barbie's Muse is a True Florescent Hot Pink this color very bright and vibrant.

The Displays for the Nail Polishes are really cute.

The display for the nail polishes collection " Sweet Ever After" these are pastel colors.

The display for the nail polish collection " Wanna Get Away?" these are summer brights

 The Nail Polishes I picked up. 

(Left to Right)Sweet Cheeks, Once Upon a Time, Shark Bait, Sexy Me.

I fell in love the the formula of these polishes. You will need about three coats to bring out the true color. The quality on these is amazing for the price. Prices range from $1.29- $2.49.

These are available at Local Drug Stores and www. BonitaColors.com

Anastasia Beverly Hills Liquid Lipstick Review!

Hi Dolls,

So I finally found the Anastasia Beverly Hills Liquid Lipsticks at their booth at Imats! My local Macys don't carry these and my only option is to order online. So when I saw these at the booth I jumped at the chance, and boy am I glad I did!  I picked up the shade Party Pink. See Details below:

The Beautiful Packaging

The brush is a doe foot applicator. It goes on very smooth and easy.

This is a swatch of the liquid lipstick.  Party pink is a very bright pink. Its really pretty and vibrant.The formula is thick and highly pigmented so a little goes a long way. The Liquid Lipstick is unscented which is nice so the smell is not overpowering. These last for a long time this will last for a hours with out having to reapply.

Here is swatch of it rubbed into my skin

I really love this liquid lipstick it is very rich and pigmented. I would totally purchase more colors.  These are available at Macy's.com and on the Anastasia Beauty website.

These retail for about $20.

XOXO,

Christina

TOM FORD LIPS AND BOYS COLLECTION REVIEW!

Hi Dolls,

So I went to my local Nordstrom to pick up a couple lipsticks from the Tom Ford Lips and Boys Collection. I'm so happy that I was able to get my hands on these as they are limited edition. I picked up "Rafael" a pretty deep orange color and John a deep fuchsia pink with shimmer color. See Details below:

The formula on these is very creamy and the are highly pigmented.

John can be a sheer wash of color or you can build this shade.

Rafael you only need one swipe and the color is very pigmented and vibrant.

                             
                                   

I feel these were a great addition to my collection. They are were worth the money since they are limited edition.  The price is around $35 at Nordstrom and the select retailers.

XOXO,

Christina

                           






































                                        

First Impression: Revlon Color Burst Lacquer Balm!

 I picked up two Revlon Color Burst Lacquer Balms during my recent trip to the Drug Store. The looked pretty cool so I wanted to try them out. I picked up 145 Ingenue and 115 Whimsical Fantaisiste.

I picked up 145 Ingenue and 115 Whimsical Fantaisiste.

145 Ingenue is a dark nude color 

The gloss is like a retractable crayon. It it perfect for precise application.

A swatch of 145 Ingenue 

The formula is smooth an moisturizing but not too shiny. I would describe this color as the perfect nude for my skin tone, it isn't too light or too dark. These balms have a slight peppermint smell which is nice.I find this color to be more like a moisturizing lipstick. So this balm can be worn alone or with a little gloss on top of it.

A Swatch of 115 Whimsical Fantaisiste

This balm is a  true berry color. 

The texture of this balm is more moisturizing than Ingenue, and this one has specks of silver glitter. 

There is great color pay off for these balm which makes them a great value.

Available at Local Drug Stores $8.99

Too Faced Chocolate Palette Review!

I received the Too Faced Chocolate Palette for Valentine's Day and I couldn't be more excited.

The Palette comes in a gorgeous box that looks like a chocolate bar wrapper. 

                                         The Palette it self looks like a giant chocolate bar. 

The eyeshadows are named after sweet chocolates, with names like White Chocolate, Triple Fudge, Semi Sweet and Milk Chocolate. The are satin, matte and shimmery shadows in this palette. The most amazing thing about this palette that each of the shadows are made with Cocoa Powder and smell like Chocolate!!
