Sugarpill Liquid Lip Color in Doll Up

March 16, 2020 | Beauty, Sugarpill | 21 Comments »

Every time I see a new Sugarpill sparkle infused matte lipstick I get excited thinking I’m going to get another Trinket. I absolutely love their lipsticks and their sparkle infused mattes are my favorite! So of course I would buy Doll Up.

Sugarpill Liquid Lip Color in Doll Up is described as a rose with baby blue and gold sparkles. I did have to build up my swatch quite a bit to get the color to show. I’m not sure if I received a bad batch or what, but this thing was completely dried out. After lots of work I was able to get it to apply somewhat evenly on my lips. However, it was very uncomfortable. It was dry and gritty. The shade itself is absolutely beautiful, but unfortunately it’s nothing like the other sparkle infused mattes I have tried. You can see Sugarpill Liquid Lip Color in Doll Up in action below.

Overall, I’d have to say that I’m pretty disappointed in this shade. Which is a shame because it’s so pretty! But for $18.00 I expect to get at least a few uses out of it. However, with the last 2 shades I’ve tried I was barely able to get just one use. It has honestly put me off of trying more shades. And I had my eye on a few of the newer ones.

Have you tried any of Sugarpill’s sparkle infused matte shades? What are your thoughts?

Bad Habit Rose Highlight Collection

March 9, 2020 | Bad Habit, Beauty | 17 Comments »

I feel horrible sharing this now that Bad Habit seems to have fallen off the face of the Earth. But I’ve been using the Bad Habit Rose Highlight Collection palette a lot lately and really wanted to share it. I believe it was a dupe for the Anastasia Beverly Hills Nicole Guerriero Glow Kit which I hear is making a comeback. So at the very least maybe you can grab that.

The Bad Habit Rose Highlight Collection contains 6 highlighters including some beautiful rose gold shades, a platinum, and a few golds. They are silky smooth and apply and blend beautifully. For $10.00 this truly was a bargain. I reach for the shade Shine more than anything. It’s the perfect neutral highlighter that compliments just about any look. You can see the Bad Habit Rose Highlight Collection in the shade Shine in action below.

Overall, I’d have to say this is a great palette. It’s a shame the company is no longer around. I wonder what happened? I know some frown upon dupes or exact copies, but I found many of theirs to be better than the originals. I wouldn’t say that is the case with this palette though. While it’s a very beautiful dupe, the Anastasia Beverly Hills palette was much better quality. But if Bad Habit was still around and you wanted a more affordable option, I think you’d be very happy with this palette.

Have you ever tried anything from Bad Habit? What highlighter are you loving at the moment?

ColourPop Blush Crush Palette

February 24, 2020 | Beauty, ColourPop | 19 Comments »

The moment I laid my eyes on the ColourPop Blush Crush Palette I just knew I had to make it mine. It’s full of beautiful pinks and mauves. It’s definitely my kind of palette.

The ColourPop Blush Crush Palette contains 9 eyeshadows in 3 finishes including matte, metallic, and even a super shock! A few of the mattes have sparkles which I absolutely love! I feel like you get the best of both worlds. It’s not too shimmery and not too flat. They’re all nicely pigmented. Lovesick and The One are a little on the sheer side. I like to use those as a base or brow highlight. They all applied and blended beautifully! Even Blush Wine. Those deeper wine shades can be tricky to work with, but I didn’t experience any issues with this one.

You can see a look I created with the ColourPop Blush Crush Palette below. I also used Made U Blush as my blush. And let me tell you, it made for a beautiful blush shade! I can see Cheek2Cheek being used as a blush shade as well. I’ll have to try that one next.

Overall, I’d have to say this is a great palette. Easily one of my top 5 ColourPop products. And I have a lot of ColourPop in my collection!

Did you purchase the ColourPop Blush Crush Palette? What palette are you loving right now?
