Favorite Winter Lipstick No. 1:: MAC Rebel

Hey Guys!
Continuing with my Winter Favorite series, I wanted to introduce you to a lipstick I reach for when I want a dark, bold color.







Rebel is a deep berry color and has a satin finish. The formulation makes it very comfortable to wear for long periods of time. BEWARE this lipstick stains tremendously which helps with the color lasting on your lips. Wear time minus the staining is 3-4 hours with minimal drinking. This is apart of MAC's permanent line and retails for $15.

Do you own this lipstick? Thanks so much for reading!

Winter Blush Favorite No. 1: Black Radiance Warm Berry

Hey Guys!
I don't know about you, but I usually change up my blush colors during the colder months. I normally go for that "playing in the snow"/"Snow White" type of look. My first favorite is actually the rookie of my blush arsenal, Black Radiance's Warm Berry.



I purchased this baked blush from CVS for around $5 on a whim. I love the pigmentation and it doesn't take much effort to get nice rosy cheeks. The name is the perfect description of the color, which to me looks like a brownish-red. 




I was hesitant at first to buy this blush because most baked blushes are pretty shimmery and I do not like shimmer on my face but I was surprised this blush only had the slightest sheen. A mostly matte, highly pigmented, easy to blend baked blush from the drugstore?! Sign. Me . Up.



I do want to try some of their other colors very soon. Have you tried any blushes from Black Radiance? 
Thanks for reading!

::Top 5:: Fall + Winter Lipsticks

Hey Guys!
It's finally getting cold down here in the South and I've been pulling out the dark lipsticks. My favorite brand, as you will be able to tell, has definitely been Wet N Wild. Their Megalast  lipsticks are the bomb.com with the pigmentation and lasting power. They are definitely my favorite drugstore lipstick brand!

I think dark lips can be pulled off with all skin tones, it's just about finding the right undertone and color for you. You can also make them more wearable by adding a lip liner or a gloss of a different color.


My Top Five Are ~drum roll please~::

Ravin' Raisin | Cherry Bomb | Sugar Plum Fairy | Vamp It Up | [MAC]  Yung Rapunxel



SWATCHES:











Be sure to check out the video to see lip swatches of these colors. What colors will you be trying in the fall time?
