MAC Heroine ADDED TO THE PERMANENT LINE!

Hi guys! MAC's bright purple matte Heroine lipstick is a cult favorite.  Every time MAC launches it in some collection or limited release it sells out like nothing.  No worries if you haven't got one in your collection! MAC announced that this popular shade will be added to the permanent line and will be available online late December and in stores early January.  Snag one! 

My Sephora VIB Haul

So I purchased a few different items during Sephora's VIB sale. I'm just goo to post some pics below. I'm not going to go into details because I'm still 'reviewing' them. I will say that I'm loving the Hourglass Ambient Lighting palette and the NARS lip pencils.

I'm slightly disappointed at the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz pencil-- but maybe I'm not using it right. 

Tarte's Friends & Family Sale

Tarte extended their F&F sale and today is the last day! Use the code 'DECFF' at checkout. And shipping is always free if you spend $40 or more. Check it out and snag some blush ladies!

Colored Raine Haul

So on Black Friday Coloured Raine had a really good 30% off sale. I had been eyeing their lippies for a whole, and I had a little change in my Paypal account, so I decided to to give some a try. I picked up three colors, and I've decided to give my overall opinion of the lipsticks. 

I will start by saying that this is a really popular brand among make up artists and its a small business, so it isn't going to be as cheap as drug store lipstick and maybe not the quality of higher end lipstick. 

These lipsticks retail at $14, so a little cheaper than Mac and a little more than the drugstore brands. With that being said, my overall thoughts are this: 

1. The color range is the bomb. These lipsticks come in bold colors and neutral colors. I honestly love every single shade offered by CR. 
2. The quality is also impressive as it relates to color opaqueness  I can't say how long they last, because I haven't worn these for more than minutes at a time. They are non-drying and semi-hydrating in fact. 
3. The price isn't horrible I don't find it's bad, especially since I got a good deal, I paid about $9.30 for each one. 
4. I have to admit I'm slightly disappointed with the packaging. It's beautiful, it just feels soooooo light to me. But maybe because I'm used to MAC, which is heavy. One people might like this feature though. 
5. Lastly, the smell wasn't bad but it wasn't pleasant. It was slightly reminiscent of hair store lipstick. But that's no biggie. 

Overall, I'd purchase these lipsticks again. The colors are bold and fun, the price is good, and I LOVE CR's social media page! The owner seems like such a delightful person! 

Check out the pics below. I got three lippies, Socialite, Plum Fairy and Stalker. 

MAC's Black Friday LE Hautecore Lipstick

So, on Black Friday MAC released a matte black lipstick for sale. Only available for that day, and it sold out quickly. Fortunately I was able to snag one!! Too bad it didn't come out sooner since I had just ordered a black lippie from Make Up Forever. But I still bought this one because the MUFE didn't really have a matte finish IMO.

Anywho, if you missed out, don't feel bad.  This lippie will be rereleased in MAC's Punk Coutoure collection, set to be released December 26th. Don't miss out! I'm going to do a post on that collection this weekend too. 

Check out the pics below. I know black lipstick isn't for everyone, but don't knock it until you've tried it lol. Black can be worn alone, but it also looks great when coupled with other lipstick shades too. It's just a lot of fun! 

Riri Hearts MAC Holiday: Pleasure Bomb and Bad Girl Riri

Hi guys! As most of you probably already know, MAC released Rihanna's final collection online last week and in stores yesterday. I only picked up the Pleasure Bomb and Bad Girl Riri lipsticks. I have to admit that these are two gorgeous lipsticks. Outside of Heaux, these two are my faves. I've seen Pleasure Bomb dupes on the Internet, but Bad Girl Riri looks far less durable. Check out the pics below! I hope you guys were able to get these!

Sorry for the Lack of Posts!

Hey guys! Sorry for the lack of posts, things have been super crazy lately AND my computer is on the fritz! I've got like ten posts/products to review that I need to get up here, and I will be doing that over the next week or so.  Plus, my daughter's bday party was yesterday and now that it's done, I've got more free time.  Things have also been super hectic with my (day) job, so I'm slammed there as well.  Anywho, keep checking in this week for new posts!!
