Arbonne: Smoothed Over Lipstick - SWATCHES

I know that I'm behind on swatches but please forgive me! 

When I heard that Arbonne had some new lipsticks, I really wanted to try them. 

I really LOVED Arbonne's eyebrow basic brow combos so I had high hopes for the new lipsticks.

I'm so used to wearing matte lipsticks that when I get something hydrating- I'm so shook up! These babies have the attributes of a balm but with the power of a lipstick. I know it sounds odd but wait until you see the swatches. One word to describe them: SMOOTH.

tarte Kiss Bliss Tarteist™ Creamy Matte Lip Paint & Crayon Set Swatches

I'm continuing my matte lip obsession into 2017.
 Right now, I'm a playing with the tarte Kiss Bliss Tarteist™ Creamy Matte Lip Paint & Crayon Set (SALE $46 CAN).
This 10 piece kit is perfect for someone like me who want to try multiple colours.

In the set you get: 5 tarteist Creamy Matte Lip Paints & 5 lip liners. FYI- If you want to get the most out of your matte colours, a lip liner is NEEDED. Every time I quickly decide to skip the liner with the drier shades it ends up being a MESS.

Arbonne's Holiday Sheer Glow Highlight stick duo

I'm currently going through a phase where I don't mind spending money on a highlighter.
If it’s pretty, I must have it! I just love glowing! Especially if it's the Holidays!
Doesn’t mater whether, it’s liquid, powder or stick-I'm a fan!

Currently Obsessed: Mary Kay® Perfecting Concealer™

Its been a while, since I have completely fallen in love with a new concealer. I have a few products that have run out and I have not replenished yet. Before I stumbled on this one, I was actually using foundation (which is a waste) as a concealer. I received a Mary Kay package and seen the first 5 shades and was bummed out... but then I realized that one had dropped one: Deep Bronze.
Literally, it is the perfect colour for me.

Im extremely proud of Mary Kay! 

This product is very comparable to a something that I tried at Sephora for over $30. 

The Mary Kay® Perfecting Concealer™ is only $17.50 CAN.

My simple everyday look with Make Up For Ever Aqua XL Waterproof Eyeliners + Swatches

Eyeliner has been a part of my daily routine for the past 15+ years. It's one product that I am always trying. I have tried so many brands. A good 50% of them end up smudged on my lower lid halfway through my day.It's so annoying. For me, I need products that don't budge. I don't have time to touch up throughout the day so I need one application to last hours. 

I look for liners that I can literally they check off my "everything I'm looking for" a list.
It sounds dramatic but hear me out.

• Long lasting
• Ultra pigmented 
• Easy application that does not drag your eyes 
• Creamy 
• Safe for your waterline
• Water resistant

Personally, I'm not use to wearing bright colours like this which draw attention to my lips. But it was fun to play with them. If you asked me which colour would I work into my "every day" routine- it would definitely be Night Spot.
