Maybelline Super Stay 10 Hour Stain Gloss in Refreshing Red Review

I can't believe that two years ago I would not be caught dead in red. I felt like it made me look to "old".

Now that I reflect back, I think I was wearing the wrong shades. Since you all asked for my favorites I will start highlighting them. Maybe I will inspire someone to go out and buy their first red lipstick. Let's get started  with one of my favorites Maybelline Super Stay 10 Hour Stain Gloss in Refreshing Red!

The Maybelline Super Stay 10 Hour stain glosses comes in 10 different shades. Ranging from brown to red. The finish is very different compared to your typical lip stains because they are moisturizing and glossy.

Great for anyone who wants to try to find their perfect red because they are buildable.

Think about it this way: One swipe of color suitable for the office. While three swipes of color is suitable for a night out.

In this picture I was wearing three wipes of color. The formula is very light and has a pleasant smell.

 Overall this Stain Gloss is at the top of my list because of its versatility. You can eat, drink, talk you head off and the stain will still be there once the gloss is off. Perfect for someone like me who has to run to meetings and often forgets to apply before I go.

Are you feeling this red?

Lise Watier: Havana All Over Baked Bronzer + Swatch

For years I stayed away from bronzers because of my skin tone. I felt that because I was "bronze" I didn't need a bronzer. Years later, I realize that I was totally doing it wrong!

Now I know the capabilities of a bronzer/highlighter. I also know mattes or cool tones don't work for me.

When I get a good bronzer, I rejoice! Okay... I know the word rejoice is a little dramatic but trust me! This one is gorgeous.

 Lise Watier: Havana All Over Baked Bronzer!

The no-mess, no-fuss secret to getting that deliciously luminous summer tan in a flash? Ssshh. It's Havana All Over Baked Bronzer. These four gloriously marbled shades of the stone blend marvellously on your skin to imitate the sun's delicious kiss with none of its harmful bite. Marvellous!

I love this bronzer! 

It's a warm tone which compliments my skin tone. I apply it as a highlight on my t-zone and cheeks.

I could also add this to my chest and shoulders for a warm glow.

Do you have a favorite bronzer?

SB:What is your favorite must have product?

CM: There is a company called Revive sold at Neiman Marcus. Naomi Campbell swears by it! I think she uses it on her tights to prevent cellulite. The Revive face wash, toner and moisturizer are amazing!

SB: What are two beauty products can you not live without?

CM: The YSL liner is amazing. The navy blue is hard to find but it's great. Also there is a blush called Taj Mahal from NARS. It has a little bit of shimmer in it and it's orange, really great for woman of color. Highly pigmented so you use a very little of it.

SB:What is your signature style?

CM: My signature style is definitely sexy. A little bit of high fashion mixed with Caribbean cool.


I loved talking to Camile! She was sweet and definitely knew her beauty products. I wish her all the luck in the future.
