FACEatelier Lip Glaze Swatch in Shiraz- Perfect for fall

I have received a good amount of requests to see swatches of my IMATS haul. I'm going to start out with one of my favorite lip glosses right now- FACEatelier Lip Glaze in Shiraz.
This glaze was picked out for me personally by the President / CEO Debbie. After our talk about their gorgeous lipstick in Revenge, she suggested a glaze to compliment it or wear alone. Click here to check out my lip swatches of Revenge.

Isn't Shiraz such a fab color! This swatch is on bare lips

This is Shiraz layered over a Berry lipstick

So ladies if your searching for a great plum gloss check out FACEatelier.

What do you use to condition your lips?

Fall is officially here! 
For Canadians like myself.. Fall is a precursor to that lovely Winter is approaching.
Canadian winters are intense.

MAC Lustrewhite Lipglass is perfect for all skin tones!

At the last MAC sale I stumbled upon MAC Lustrewhite Lipglass. 
In the bottle it looks intimating but  after swatching I fell in love!


As you can see from my lips its a clear gloss with minimal shimmer. 
Gorgeous.

The Gloss was one of  the goodies in the TBB swag bag. Not only is this gloss formulated with 100% natural and 85% certified organic ingredients BUT it`s totally appropriate for day or night!

The gloss made me look like I put an effort into my look when I really didn`t LOL.

I used the gloss on the far right.. for reference of it`s true color.


Here`s a close up of my lips just to show you guys how moisturized & glossy my lips are :)

FOTD + Annabelle Volumelip Lip Plumping Gloss Review

This look is pretty simple but Fab in other words.. sexy librarian...joking:

Annabelle smudgeliner in Ohmygoth!
Marcelle Volume Precision Mascara in black
Annabelle Volumelip Lip Plumping Gloss in Cherryoke
I was recently sent two Annabelle Volumelip Lip Plumping Glosses to try out!
  • The lighter color is Sweet Tweet and the darker color is Cherryoke. 
  • The applicator is clear and slanted. 
  • The tube is hard, so pushing out the product is difficult. (But they currently are changing the tube..woo!)
  • The consistency was not thick but moisturizing.
  • 5 vibrant different shades.
Annabelle Volume Lip Plumping Gloss in Cherryoke is the lip swatch shown here.

I love it because it's the color of my glasses :) Also it out of my comfort zone... aka not a clear gloss or neutral nude.

If your a WOC who is lost at finding lip shades try a berry tone like this one. Berry tones can easily enhance your complexion!

 The other gloss Cherry Tweet is to light for me.  I could either mix it with Cherryoke or use it as a highligher on my lips.

Overall I like these glosses but I would stick to the dark shades in the collection like Metro Mango, Cherryoke or Vivid Volume. Click here to check out the shades.

I was sent these products to review by Annabelle/Marcelle cosmetics.

Balmshell Beauty Bloggers Event

Last week I attended Balmshell's Beauty Bloggers event. By now you should all be familiar with Balmshell because I have done a review of their glosses in March. Click here to read it.

Quick Facts about Balmshell:
-Developed by Twin sisters Jennifer & Fiona
-A Canadian product
-Paraben Free

This was such a fun event. We were able to swatch the products, give suggestions and mingle! Some girls I haven't seen since February, so this was a great opportunity to connect with them again and meet new girls. The Balmshell squad were really friendly, sweet and fabulous!

I'll be swatching some new goodies from the party soon :)
