Maybelline Master Duo Review

    A couple weeks ago I went to Walmart and I bought the Maybelline Master Duo and I posted a blog immediately after I bought it showing the results of the brush and I was really surprised on how accurate it was. I bought the 500 Black Lacquer. This is literally my new favorite drugstore liquid liner. I was really impressed when I bought their gel liner and I just was in love with it and I used it all the time and then when I saw this come out in Walmart I just had to try it immediately because I was so in love with their gel liners. The consistency of this liner is great it's not to liquidy and it last all day and I bought the non waterproof liner but it still act as if it's a waterproof liner I cannot rub it off with just my fingers I have to take a makeup remover wipe to get it off. I do have to put a black shadow on top of it just to keep the color because I have oily lids and it would turn the black into silver so I put a black shadow on top of it just so it won't affect the color. So I went back to Walmart to see what other products Maybelline put out and I noticed that they put not just a black liquid liner out but multiple colors they have blue, green, purple, and many other colors so I decided to buy 520 navy gleam. I do have to be honest and say that I do not like the liquid liner by itself because it's to liquidy and the color is not very pigmented you have to put several strokes on it several layers to get the actual color that is on the sticker and it's just way too liquidy for me but the black liner is not liquidy at all it's a good consistency so it's weird it's like their formulas changed maybe I just grabbed a bad one but I'll try again. I do love using the navy blue liner mixed with chaos in the Vice palette it's just so beautiful I love it it's such a beautiful blue liner. I do have a tutorial going up about the blue liner so I'm so excited to show you guys. But overall I really enjoy using that these products they're not the best liquid liners but I do really like them. And I do recommend them if you're on a budget I think I bought mine for 7 dollars each and I totally recommend the black liner I just I really love it I probably used it several times since I bought it. I'm kinda iffy on the color liquid liners just because mine is really liquidy and the colors seem not so pigmented when I put it on the first time so I suggest if you're buying one of the color ones get a matching shadow to go with it just in case so you can put it on top. Maybe I just got a bad liner and that's the reason why it's so liquidy but if that is the case then just buy a matching shadow.


I love you guys and I hope you have a beautiful beautiful day!

Ew... Oil.

I have large pores so I struggle with very oily skin. I use powder and other products to help stop the shine. I know how it feels to shine like the sun. I wanted to try some products that prevent shine and I picked out this one. I tried it several different ways the first way was with make up and the second was without makeup. Now the instructions say that you have to apply this after you cleanse your face and before your moisturize.  I did that and then applied my makeup and it helped a lot but I was also wearing setting powder. I tried it again without my makeup and it worked for a little bit but it did not last for the day which was kind of upsetting. Now your welcome to try it for yourself it did not work for me because I have very oily skin. I also have very sensitive skin so when I applied it I was very cautious but it felt very heavenly on my skin and it did not irritate it at all.

I hope you guys enjoy!Happy December!!

Velvet mineral liquid foundation review

When I bought my 3 eyeshafows from urban decay I also got 3 free samples and one of those were the Velvet mineral liquid foundation.
I did not like how it looked on my face. First it came out of the package really cakey looking. I was not a big fan from the start. I gave it a try anyways and i put it on my face with my applicator brush. I know I do not have the best brush but it was not my brush because I also applied it with a sponge and it still did not look good. I applied it on my face and it did not blend well it just sat on top of my skin. It just felt caked on my face and it low coverage to i applied it twice and it made it even worst. Throug out the day I knew people could tell I was wearing makeup. This foundation did not look natural at all. I was not happy but I was glad it was a sample.
