Small Revlon Haul

So I decided to check out CVS because I've been reading about the 50%-70% sale going on. It seemed like nothing was on clearance but I did find a few with that bright orange sticker (all Revlon cosmetics!) so I thought I'd share them with you. I also saw 2 new Rimmel displays. One for the lipsticks that Kate Moss chose colors for. I only saw I think 5 or 6 shades. They come in a sleek black case. I might have to pick one up and try it out. The second was for their new eyeshadows. I was tempted to pick one up but the way they were packaged turned me off. It seemed like it would be difficult to get a certain color on the brush because it was a small space and not all the colors were the same size.

Anyways on to the three make-up items I picked up.

This foundation might be a little too light for me. I'm not sure yet as I haven't tried it on my face. It seemed very liquid-y. I had to shake it quite a bit but then that causes the top to get dirty. But it does have SPF 20 which is always a good thing. The shade I got was Cool Beige.


Not even too sure what this is? I'm gonna use it as a highlighter though because I THINK that's what it is for. It's a pretty light pink pearly color. Note every time I click it on it squirts out and can get a little messy. This has SPF 18.




I made a post yesterday about how much I love the Colorburst lipsticks so when I saw this color on sale I picked it up. The Pink Sugar and Icy Nude was on sale also but I didn't really love the colors. I'm pretty sure they wouldn't go with me so I declined them.


Savings! (I also picked up a free pack of gum)

Bonus: I reached over $50 for the Beauty Club and have $5 ExtraBucks!

Collection: Revlon Colorburst Lipsticks

I absolutely love this line of lipsticks. They are nicely pigmented and apply so smoothly. I was at Walgreens yesterday and saw that Fuchsia and Raspberry were on the "last chance sale" and I thought that meant that maybe those colors are getting discontinued or something. I always wanted these two colors so I thought it's better to buy them at a sale price then have to hunt them down later. These are definitely lipsticks I would recommend.

New Find: L'oreal Balm

So I planned on doing a blog post every day in December but the weather got crazy here and I guess the wind messed with the wifi and I was without internet for a while :(.

But back to some blog posts. I found L'oreal Balm display at HEB and I decided to pick up a shade because 1.) I can't for the life of me find Revlon Lip Butters and 2.) L'oreal cosmetics were $2 off. I picked up the shade "Tender Mauve". Where I purchased this it was originally $7.95 (but it MIGHT be a few dollars more at Walgreens or CVS). For almost $8 I feel like there isn't that much product (picture below shows how much comes in the tube). I do like the feel of this balm. It's not a really long lasting balm. I found it to last about 2-3 hours. It's not a completely matte color but when applied the shimmer isn't overpowering. The color payoff is pretty sheer. I actually kind of like that for a balm because then I won't have to be so careful applying it. It also has SPF 15 in it which is always a plus.
