Recommendations
1. Use a white or light eyeshadow base underneath to help colors pop. (You can use concealer as a substitute)
2. Use an eyeshadow brush not sponge applicator to apply.
3. Do not rub onto eyelid, pack onto the eyelid to build up color.
4. Do not put glitter directly onto eyelid if you have sensitive eyes, always apply a primer first. 

Ruby Kisses Ultra Matte Super Rich Lipstick: Dark Plum Scene & Blue Lagoon

 Review
I purchased both of these colors because they looked the most interesting to me and I was just plain curious. I can honestly say I love the feel and how these lipsticks look on the lips. The formula is awesome,creamy, matte, non drying. Dark Plum Scene is the perfect dark vampy fall color and very sexy. And Blue Lagoon is a fun color for spring and summer.  The coverage is amazing. 1 to 2 applications. Yes these are as ultra matte as a Beauty Supply $2.99USD lipstick can get.

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Velour Liquid Lipstick: Redrum

 
 Review
I really like this lipsticks color and formula. It is easily to apply because of it's large applicator and the color dries quickly. Does not rub off or smudge. Not as bright a red as Lime Crime's Red Velvetine, but still pretty non the less. My favorite part is the packaging of course, the shipping was fast and everything was packed nicely. $18.00 USD +jeffreestar Buy It Here

NYX Butter Lipsticks: Big Cherry, Razzle, Lollies

Review
 These are suppose to be full coverage hydrating lipsticks. However I found them to be patchy runny and easy to rub off. In other words this review has already been compromised, but let me explain. These Butter lipsticks got rave reviews and I read as many of them as I could even looked at swatches. But for some reason I could not get these to work for me. My favorite out of the three is Razzle, it leaves a nice pink tint on the lips. I was hoping for more pigmentation and less formula, which is far from hydrating, and only dries my lips out more, so I have to wear a lip balm underneath. This could be because there are a lot of products put into making these lipsticks. $6.00USD
