Colourpop X Hello Kitty Ultra Matte Lip (Ribbon)

This color is beautiful and I love it so much I bought a back up for that reason and also because it was part of the Colourpop X Hello Kitty collab, when the color was released it was released in a bundle and I didn't want to purchase the bundle which included a eye shadow and a blush that I knew would not be flattering on my skin. So when the finally released the lippie as a separate I jumped on it. The formula is Ultra Matte, however I am going to say that that this formula feels more like their Ultra Satin's as far as texture and wearability, and because it transferred onto literally everything. Because of this you will get 4 to 5 hours max if you don't get frustrated and remove it first. On the upside the product goes on opaque with one application. Paid $6.00USD

Too Faced Sweet Peach Palette

 The Too Faced Sweet Peach palette has been the most sought after palette in recent makeup history. With a limited release back in April 2016 which sold out in record numbers. Too Faced promised a restock in December 2016 and delivered. I purchased it the night of it's re-release and I am very happy I did. This palette features 18 eye shadows that are 0.95grams a piece. The palette colors range from pink to deep purples. The eye shadows have a soft peachy scent which is not over powering, and the colors are pigmented and buttery. $49.00 USD

Swatch Out! Anastasia Beverly Hills Ultimate Glow Kit

This Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kit features six metallic powder highlighters for intense luminosity. Each highlighter pan 4.5grams of product. And the palette has a nice size mirror. Personally I feel like these highlighters are a bit chalky and have a lot of fall out. But the colors are beautiful. Use wet if your using a brush for better application as it is hard to get product on your brush from the pan, because the pigments are pressed so tightly together. Also these highlighters contain a lot of glitter. Paid $45.00USD
Pros 
Lots of sparkle and glitter
Cons
A lot of fall out
Hard to blend
Patchy application

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Androgyny Palette

Swatches shown above with no eyes shadow base or primer.
This is Jeffree Star Cosmetics second palette from the product line and just like his first Beauty Killer Palette it features 10 large extremely pigmented eye shadows of varying colors to play with. This Androgyny  palette features dramatic shades that can you can use to create some beautiful theatrical or advanced makeup looks at best. The palette itself is sturdy and well made and has a nice large mirror. Even if the colors are not your cup of tea there is no denying that a lot of thought and time went into producing this beauty. The Jeffree Star Androgyny palette is $45USD (which is approx. $4.50 a shadow) and is vegan and cruelty free.

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Skin Frost (Dark Horse)

This is the third Jeffree Star Cosmetics Skin Frost that I have purchased. I love them because they offer a lot of product for what you pay and also the skin frost can be used literally anywhere, face and body. I initially passed on this color, because I have similar looking highlighters from Colourpop Cosmetics. But there was a Black Friday sale and I could not resist. The large pink compact is sturdy and features a large mirror. The color is a beautiful golden bronze, suitable for tan to dark skin tones. A little goes a long way so use a light hand when applying. $29.00USD

Lena Lashes Liquid Matte Lipsticks Slayage and Michael

Review
 Baby matte liquid lipstick in Slayage (deep burgundy) and more matte than matte liquid lipstick in Michael (sienna). Slayage does try down fast and matte but it does transfer and rub off when touched, so it is not kiss proof. Michael however takes forever to dry at least 8 minutes, but does not transfer once dry. But colors suitable for all skin tones. $6.99
