Shaaanxo x Colourpop Eyeshadows

Hey guys!!

I have been trying out lots of products that I want to review and these products I am talking about today it was only a week and a half, but I am so obsessed with it that I HAD to talk about it ASAP! 

I had seen Colourpop allllll over YouTube and Instagram so I had been interested in trying them out. When I was in NYC I went to my friend Krystelle's place and she has a few of the Colourpop eyeshadows. I swatched them and I was dying on how amazingly they swatched! They were so PIGMENTED! I knew that I was going to need to get some soon.

When I saw that Shaaanxo had collaborated with Colourpop I had to get the eyeshadows she created with them. I knew I wasn't going to be disappointed, but I did have a little doubt I don't know why. This foursome is $20.


I was excited when it came in the mail. I like the fact that they included a card with a quote. 


I adore the packaging so much that I am going to keep it in there the whole time till I use it up if I ever do haha.


Here are the shadows that came in this foursome.

(Top: Deluxe. Middle: Xo. Bottom: Rebel and Selfie)

These eyeshadows have a very interesting consistency and texture. I had heard these feel kinda wet when you touch them, but when applied on the eyes its feels like a powder. I agree with that statement! These apply good with your finger if applied on the lid. These are highly pigmented with just one swipe.

(Left to Right: Rebel, Selfie, Xo, and Deluxe)

Rebel is a pretty matte khaki green, Selfie is a pretty matte peachy brown, Xo is a pretty pearlized champagne color, and Deluxe is a pretty pearlized warm bronze shade. Xo reminds me a lot of the Makeup Geek eyeshadow in Shimma Shimma. I honestly don't have a favorite shade I LOVE all of them and that is rare for me. (I got shade descriptions from website)

I use my fingers like I said for if I am applying on my lids, but I also use my Real Techniques Deluxe Crease Brush to apply the color Selfie to apply on my crease. I would have thought that with the consistency of the product that it would either crease or even be difficult for me to blend. Glad to say that I was so WRONG! These shadows blend like a DREAM! One thing I LOVE is that there is no fallout with these shadows. Just remember if you buy these shadows close the lid tightly so the product won't dry out.  

Overall I am now obsessed with these Colourpop eyeshadows and I highly recommend you guys to try them out. If you don't like these shades in this foursome you can always choose single eyeshadows for $5 each. They have unique shades that I don't have in my collection and I need them in my life. I will definitely try some more out hopefully soon. I am on a no buy right now unless it is things I NEED. Wish me luck guys because it is so hard! 

Have you guys tried Colourpop shadows?? What are some of your favorite shades??

Whitening Lightning Color Your Smile Lighted Lip Gloss

Hey guys!!! Have you guys heard of  Jaclyn Hill ?? If not you have been missing out. She does the best make-up tutorials and recently she had a brush set with Sigma which I missed out on cause I couldn't afford it at the time. Then she announced she came out with her own lip gloss through Whitening Lightning and decided to go ahead and get this one even if it was a little pricey, but I saved up money for it. See how pigmented that color is?? This is the color Rose Hill and the website says it is a romantic and feminine hue. It is a beautiful rosy red color and I love it!! This gloss is amazing because first it has a mirror on the side. Just remember to remove the sticker that is on top of the mirror, but I haven't done that yet that's why it looks dirty on the picture. Secondly, when you open this gloss it lights up. So if you need to reapply when you are out and you don't have a mirror and/or you are in a dark place you are covered. Last but n...

Pssssst! Instant Dry Shampoo

Hey guys!!! I love love love the Batiste Dry Shampoo , but before I traveled back in October I had ran out and I didn't have time to buy more. I went into a drugstore and the only thing I found was a Pssssst! Instant Dry Shampoo so I decided to go ahead and try it out.  I honestly do not like this dry shampoo, but I don't hate it. This dry shampoo will get the job done. It sucks up all the oils in your hair and it will stay like that till the next day. I hate the smell of it. To me it turns me off to a product if it doesn't smell good. Also a couple days ago I sprayed some in and someone told me that one side of my hair is white. This is definitely a product that you need to brush it out after a few minutes of applying it to your hair. The white cast that it leaves behind also turn me off to this product. Overall this is an okay dry shampoo. I will be going back to Batiste as soon as this is done haha. Have you guys tried this product?? What do you think?? ...

88 Original Palette by Coastal Scents

Hey guys!!! When I first Started out with make up at 15 I got make up as birthday gifts that year. I was glad I didn't have to purchase any of it myself. Once I got a job a couple years later I wanted to get more and start experimenting with make up a little bit more. It was a low paying job so I was on a budget. I was looking for an affordable eyeshadow palette because I wanted to play around with colors on my eyes. I decided to purchase the Coastal Scents Original Palette:    I actually heard about this palette from my friend Nikki also known as Nix92585 on YouTube.* She was talking about it on her Facebook and I thought "that's a pretty palette" so I decided to go check it out on the website. I love that everything on there is very affordable and I have had this palette for a couple years now and I barely hit pan on one color. It lasts you a long time for such a reasonable price.  Here are swatches:  As you can see these colo...
