       Hello guys and welcome to Its About Makeup Time with ya girl L_lish here!!! Today I am revealing a sneak peak at the upcoming video of the week. This week I am going to be showing off a new Buy It Or Skip It Review on ColourPop Cosmetics. Colour Pop cosmetics can be found online and in their California store Website Here, check them out!!!     Even though I'm not going to technically review these item on my website, I am going to talk about the company. ColourPop is an amazing company. They treat every customer with resepect and get packages shipped out in a timely manner. Like most beauty brands they have a Instagram , FaceBook , and Twitter . I personally enjoy their cosmetics. ColourPop Cosmetics offers LippieStix, Lip Pencils, Super Shock Shadows, and Pigments. The best thing about ColourPop is that EVERY SINGLE PRODUCT IS $5, well except for sets. I would keep going and talk about swatches and quality, but you'll have to watch...

CoverGirl Ready...Set...Gorgeous Concealer!

Image
     Hi guys and welcome to Its About Makeup Time with ay girl L_lish here!!!! Today's review is all about Cover Girl's "not so new anymore" Ready Set Gorgeous Concealer. I was holding back on reviewing this concealer until I tried it for quite some time, but I seem to still have the same opinion on it.....Blah! This product retails for about $6 at Walmart but it can be found at any drugstore.      I had never tried any UNIQUE products from Cover girl, and when this Ready Set Gorgeous line came out I was all for it. Basically the pink packaging reeled me into this product because if I was going off of past experience I would have passed. Lets take a look at this concealer: Packaging of the Product The 3 stages of the product      As you can see the packaging makes you thing this is going to be a pretty good concealer, right? WRONG! Once you twist the cap open, the doe foot applicator is revealed. Most concealers...

Ulta Addicted To Eyes Palette

Image
     Hello guys and welcome to Its About Makeup Time with ya girl L_lish here!!!!  Sorry for the lack of post, my main concern has been YouTube and basketball lately. With school being over I am wearing vibrant colors for the Spring/Summer. I recently was on Ulta and noticed they launched a new palette, which is not sold online anymore, The Ulta Addicted To Eyes Palette.      Left to right: Brow wax, light powder, medium powder, Bone, Sun-kissed, Key West, Elegance, Seaside, and Plum Nior     The packaging of the palette is a strong, heavy duty cardboard. It has this beautiful purple marble effect just like the Tarte Be MATTnificent palette. For $12 you get way..Way, WAY more than you pay for. As far as quality and quantity this product is a must have. This palette has six eyeshadows and three brow products. I absolutely love these eyeshadows for a fun pop of color. They are vivid, but yet have a sultry effect to th...

Maybelline Baby Skin Pore Eraser

Image
     Hello guys and welcome to Its About Makeup time with ya girl L_lish here and today I am going to be reviewing the new Maybelline Baby Skin Pore Eraser. This is sort of a dupe for the infamous Benefit Porefessional, which I have had and will be doing a comparison later in the review. First lets talk about cost..... This particular product cost about $5- $7 for 20 mL, depending on where you live and where you get the product. Here's a look: Maybelline Claims: "Insta-blur technology visibly smoothes pores away. Can be worn alone or under makeup. Non-comedogenic and fragrance-free     Texture is really important in pore minimizers because the texture of the product is how your pores are actually "vanished". As far as the Baby Skin, it is a clear gel-like formula, which makes the skin smooth and refreshed. I love it! This can be used as a primer and can be used alone or with your makeup. Compared to Benefit Porefessional: ...

    Hello guys and welcome to Its About Makeup Time with ya girl L_lish here!!!! Long time no read huh? Sorry, finals, long days, editing, and other important events got me tired. LOL anyway, lets get on with the review!      Today I am going to be showing off my Maybelline Vivids Lipsticks. These are amazing and you can get them at any drugstore. Retail value is about $5-$7 which is a steal for the quality of the product. Here's a picture: Sleek red packaging that is different from any other Maybelline Lipstick  Pink Pop................Shocking Coral         On these pictures you can see the packaging and swatches of the Vivids Lipsticks. On the left is Pink Pop. It is a satin light pink that has a very faint purple undertone. On the right is Shocking Coral. It is a reddish coral color. The texture of these lipsticks is phenomenal! Maybelline really killed the formula and made them feel comparable, if not be...

Too Faced Chocolate Solei Bonzer

Image
           Hi and welcome to Its About Makeup Time with ya girl L_lish here!!!!Before I start with the review on the Tan Without Winkle set, I would like to apologize about the lack of post. I am currently experiencing technical difficulties. My computer about a month or so ago shut down. It completely stopped working, then we tried fixing it and the internet stopped working. After that I had to get a new modem and the internet access still didn't work. I am currently having problems typing this review, but enough about me lets get started.           I bought this set from Ulta. It was $15 and I thought that was reasonable considering the brand. First off lets talk about the amazing and beautiful packaging!!!!! I love it!! Its so.....Too Faced. This set comes with two items, the Chocolate Solei Bronzer and a Flatbuki. They are both adorable and compact. You can carry this anywhere becaus...

MAC Mineralized Skin Finish Natural

Image
     Hi guys and welcome to Its About Makeup Time with ya girl L_lish here!!!! Yay I'm so excited to be back on blogger because I have a ton of new products to review!!!!! The first I have though is a very popular product, the MAC Mineralized Skin Finish Natural(MSFN). This product cost about $31 on the online store and in-store.   This powder is my new favorite. It screams natural because when I put it on the only difference I can tell is coverage. Usually when I'm going to school I'll just swipe this on my face. THATS HOW GOOD IT WORKS. If you've followed my post, you'll realize that I used the Maybelline Dream Matte Powder, this is still good but my MSFN is better. This powder is smooth and it is domed(baked) with the finest particles in it. I have had this powder for about 4 months and It has shown almost no sign of wearing out. If your looking for a good, natural, everyday powder, this is your best friend.....   XOXO L_lish

Quick Tip

Image
Hi and Welcome to Its About Makeup Time with ya girl L_lish here!!! Today I have some quick tips!!! The first one has to do with your brows. As a girl who loves makeup, my brows are always groomed. To make sure of that, I get a cheap mascara and clean the wand. This then creates a spooly I can use for combing my brows for only $1 and I can bend it.

Covergirl Eye Enhancers!!!!!

Image
  Hi and welcome to Its About Makeup Time with ya girl L_lish hereeeeeeeeeeeeee, again. Yes, I am in the blogging mood. This means that you will see multiple post throughout the day!!!!!!!! I have been loving Covergirl ever since I started to do makeup, so while I was cleaning I though "Hey Covergirl reviews anyone"? So this brings me to my next review which is about Covergirl's Eyesahdows/ Eye Enhancers. Champagne.............Mink(DD Alert!!! All That Glitters Dupe)     I bought mine at Walmart,but you can find these eyeshadows at any drugstore for about $3 a piece. At first do not swatch theses eyeshadows!!! I don't know if it was me or what but sometimes that shiny residue will appear and make your eyeshadow hard to load up on brushes. This even happens with MAC and Too Faced :( But other than that the consistency is nice and creamy-like. Lets see some swatches shall we????? Marvelous :0    These are my favorite drugstore eyeshadows.... HANDS ...

Coastal Scents Brush Review

Image
 Hi welcome to Its About Makeup Time with your girl L_lish here!!!!! I have been thinking... What if I change my review style? Sometimes it might be hard to understand the thoughts that I have written... I know! I am going to start reviewing in a category style!!!!! YAY!!!! The first review in this style will be about my favorite brushes by Coastal Scents. Picture from Coastalscents.com Texture These brushes feel amazing! To give you a feel of what I'm talking about they feel like human hair after its been washed. Do you get it?  Smell There is a slight smell in the brushes when they are brand new. Just was them, it will go away! After Wash After I washed these brushes for the first time and actually used them I did experience a little shedding in the powder brush. This was just because of washing it though because after that first wash there was no more shedding. The 12 Piece set comes with 4 face brushes, but I don't use the concealer brush for co...

Olay Pro X Advanced Cleansing System Limited edition Pink!!!!

Image
     Hi, long time no see. Welcome back to Its About Makeup Time with your girl L_lish here!!!!! Today I have two reviews the first one ,which is this one, is about the Olay Pro X Advanced Cleansing System in Limited edition Pink. I originally had the regular cleansing system from Olay on my Christmas/Wish List. I have to say, I made a pretty good pick here. The price of this system is reasonably good considering it is suppose to be a dupe for the Clarisonic. I found my System at Walmart for about $30 but you may also find it at Target.    This is the box of the system.      First of all, let's just talk about this cute packaging! I love pink and this is pink. I don't know exactly how long this color will be available, but if you like pink you might want to get your hands on it. Olay claims that this system cleanses 6 times better than regular cleaning. This is true for me, but it does not maximize the moisturizing effects of my moist...

Cream Shadow Showdown with Bonus Bases.... Finally

Image
 Welcome back to Its About Makeup Time with ya girl L_lish here and today will be the last post of Cream Shadow Showdown with Bonus Bases. In this post I will be announcing the winner of the Showdown. I will have a winner for high-end, high-end runner up, low-end, and low-end runner up. High-End Winner The best High-end Base/Cream Shadow goes to MAC's Painterly Paint Pot. This is the most versatile Cream Shadow because it can also be a base or primer. High-End Runner Up Of course I only have two High-end items but this would still be my runner up. I like the Too Faced Shadow Insurance because it primes my eyes while giving me a matte finish too them. Even though I have tried Urban Decay's Primer Potion, I still don't say it beats this primer. Low-End Winner Of course you might have guessed it.... Okay maybe you didn't, but the Revlon Illuminance Cream Shadow Quad won for low-end I like this quad because again you can use it a  base and primer. You also ...

Hello, today I wanted to tell you all what I bring in my travel makeup bag when I am going to a theme park(and water park). When going to a park like this, pack light.
