MAC Pro Longwear Concealer Review

Hi Everyone! 
Today I wanted to share with you a review on a concealer I've been loving the past few months and has quickly become popular in the blog and YouTube world!
NC20

What MAC says...
"A liger that provides medium to full coverage with a comfortable, natural matte finish. Colour-true formula lasts up to 15 hours. Helps conceal and correct the look of under-eye circles, and discolorations. Comes in a clear glass vial with a matte black pump."

 
When they say long wearing they're not lying! Even when my skin is having an oily day this concealer doesn't budge, it literally lasts all day!  Another amazing thing about this concealer is that it has such great coverage and is great for covering up acne and dark spots. It's extremely pigmented and a little goes a long way so I know this little bottle will last me a long time!

The texture is nice and creamy and blends out so well. Another great thing about this product is the packaging, its in a glass bottle that has a pump which is great so you're not getting any bacteria back in the bottle when using it.

Overall this is an amazing long wearing concealer with great coverage and I will definitely be repurchasing it again. 

Have you ever tried this concealer? What did you think?

Happy New Year to you all!

Review: Cover Girl Jumbo Gloss balm

Hi Everyone!

I was at the drugstore the other night and came across these new jumbo gloss balms from Cover Girl. As soon as I saw them I new I had to give one a try because they reminded me of the popular Clinique Chubby Sticks.
On the display Cover Girl claims  claims “sheer color, soft shine, soft feel” that create “petal soft lips". I have to say I really agree with them! 
The one I got was " Blush Twist", it's a very natural blush colour and I really love it! These remind me a lot of the revlon lip butters but not as thick. They leave your lips looking moisturized and give a great pop of colour. They're also very lightweight. 
I purchased this for $8.90 but I'm sure at Walmart you can get them for around $7.00 

They have a good variety of colours and I will definitely be back to pick up some more!

What do you think? Have you tried these out yet?

Review: St Tropez Bronzing Mousse

Hey Everyone!
Today I wanted to share with you guys one of my all time favorite self tanners. I thought this would be the perfect time to show you this because the winter months are coming which means you won't be getting very much sun and if you're like me and still want to keep a nice natural glow I would definitely check this product out!
This Bronzing Mousse from St.Tropez is great because it will never give you that orange colour like most self tanners do. This will give you a really nice natural golden glow and it's also very build-able. 
It come out in a very pigmented mousse but don't be alarmed because once you rub it into your skin it isn't nearly as dark. When I first bought this at the start of the summer I got the mitt that they recommend to buy with it. I found that because you have to work fairly quickly with this product that after a few uses the mitt starts to rip and fall apart. I eventually just bought a box of disposable plastic gloves from Walmart for $4.00( half the price of the mitt) and I found that the gloves worked so much better than the mitt! They gave a very even coverage and made it so much easier to apply.

I usually apply this at night before I go to bed and then just wash it off the next morning, because you want to leave it on your skin for as long as possible to get the best results. 

I really would recommend this self tanner but I would suggest getting disposable gloves instead of the mitt and save yourself some money. It's really a great product and you'll never have to worry about it giving you a orange colour.

Have you guys ever tried this product?
