E.L.F. Review!!

As you all have seen my mini video hall (if not you could watch it here), I was sharing with you guys on some of the goodies I got while at K-Mart. Well, here is a little review blog on the items I have tried. I haven't tried em all, but this is what I've tried so far. And just as an update, I already placed my other order for the brushes and I've been waiting for 4 days. It still hasn't been shipped out. They take forever with their processing, it's quite annoying. Anyways onward with the reviews, in order here is what we'll review today:

$1 E.L.F. Brightening Eye Color in Drama 2007/81201
Their eyeshadow is a bit powdery and loose. However this quad is very dense. Not only is their black very dark, but their white is very very white!! This product is pretty true to color. However I lightly put this over my Too Faced Shadow Insurance and it still didn't stay on that well. I'd give this a 3/5.


$1 E.L.F. Brightening Eye Color in Silver Lining 2003/90302
Very similar to the Drama quad with consistency. However this isn't as dense. I'd give this a 3/5 as well.

The Brightening Eye Color in Drama swatches are on top while the Brightening Eye Color in Silver Lining is on the bottom. Again this was put over lightly applied Too Faced Shadow Insurance.

$1 E.L.F. Liquid Eyeshadow in Coco Loco 7403
$1 E.L.F. Liquid Eyeshadow in Green Machine 7405
$1 E.L.F. Liquid Eyeshadow in Sultry Satin 7401
$1 E.L.F. Liquid Eyeshadow in Misty Mauve 7406
Again, these swatches are in order from the photo and list above!!
I love love love this!! It's amazing!! I haven't put it on my eyes yet so I can't tell you about the creasing or smudging, however when I tried to wash this off with soap, I had to scrub pretty hard!! And wash it two times over!! The colors are so dense!! And it's very creamy!! I love this!! 5/5 so far!!


$1 E.L.F. Water Resistant Liquid Eyeliner in Black
This is a fantastic eyeliner!! It's very dense, dark true black. And it does not smudge at all!! It stays on so well!! The best liquid eyeliner I've ever tried!! The only down side is the tip is crazy hard and when I accidentally poked myself in my eye it hurt, however the good thing is that when the product went into my eye, it didn't sting!! Yippee!! I give it a 5/5!!


And although I didn't buy this at the time, I had previously bought it and thought I should share it with you guys:

$1 Gentle Lip Scrub
Eh, it's nothing fabulous. One light coat feels good, melts pretty well on your lips. but if you put more than one then your lips will feel so waxy you could scrape the wax off your lips. Plus even when it's stored properly it still dries out and makes it hard to melt on your lips. The scent isn't very pleasant either, smells very waxy. I'd like to see them make this product a bit more moist and also maybe cherry scented!! I give it a 2/5.


That's about it for now, I'll keep you all updated when the next package comes in!!

L.A. Colors Shimmer Loose Eyeshadow Review!!

Here are some L.A. Colors Shimmer Loose Eyeshadow. I got them in 5 colors! You could find these for about $1 at Forever 21, Love 21, and also many discount shops like Big Lots or even the dollar store!! As you all know, with all cosmetics no matter how expensive or cheap I do a little research to see how good the product is. If it gets an average of 3/5 then I get it. If it gets any lower than that, I pass on it good. The colors I got from left to right were:

-Sunshine BES402
-Honey Suckle BES401
-Snow White BES400
-Radiant BES404
-Lollipop BES403


And here above are the swatches of the colors in the same order shown in the first picture and also listed!! All I used was my Two Faced Shadow Insurance. My favorite color out of all of them was Sunshine and also Radiant. Would I buy this again?? Maybe the Sunshine and Radiant, and maybe even the Lollipop, but not the others. I'm planning on doing a video blog review for this, so keep an eye out everyone!!

My vote is a 2.5/5 for the Sunshine and Radiant, and about a 2 for everything else.

Candies Sunglasses for Only .99!!

You did *NOT* read the title wrong!! It's true!! I as I was looking around at dollar stores for some cheap vases to put my make up brushes in, I stumbled upon this at the dollar store!! Candies sunglasses which were originally sold at Kohl's (I know that because that's what the tag says!!). And this is great because I needed some new sunglasses!! Doesn't it make you wanna go out to your local dollar store??

Pandorum Movie Review!!

This was right up Rey's alley!! He loves futuristic type of movies. Eh, not so my style however I will say that this was a pretty good movie, especially for it being something not of my genre type. I was scared at least 2 times, hiding behind my hands, ha!! I don't want to spoil anything for anyone who hasn't seen it yet, but I will say... Why is it that the Asian character can never make it!? Gosh, come on now people!! Let an Asian character live!! Haha!!

The movie is a good length, not too long, not too short. It's got alright graphics. And it does make you think a bit, with a twist at the end. Over all a pretty good movie. Rey like this better than Surrogates, but I like Surrogates better than this movie. I guess it's because this type of movie his his genre and Surrogates is a bit more my style. This is def. a good rental!!

3/5 for me!! Pretty good for being a genre outta my box!!

Surrogates Movie Review!!

Good movie!! Bruce Willis is such a great actor!! This is a great movie with action and another reason why I liked it was because it had a good moral at the end of the story which is, humans are lazy!! Haha!! This movie is suspenseful, and makes you think throughout the movie (but not too much!!). I was tripping off the machines faces, the make up they did on the actors to make them look robotic was so neat!! But it's kinda funky how Bruce Willis' mouth barely moved in robot form. Haha!! You have to see the movie to understand what I'm talking about. Throughout the whole movie, I was laughing on how perfect the robots were!! The make up work was amazing!!

4/5 stars!! A very good rental!! Wouldn't be disappointed paying for a matinee!!
