Review: Loreal One Sweep Shadow + Double Extend Eye Illuminator Mascara

The quality that i usually expect with loreal just wasn't there. It one sweep shadow would have been an excellent idea if it had been properly executed. The colors were nice but there was no pigmentation and the applicator was a no go firstly because no 2 eyes are shaped the same so to have a universal shadow applicator was ridiculous. I attempted to use this with my regular makeup brushes but the strips of color are entirely to thin to make that work. 

I almost enjoyed the mascara. It was a great formula on the black base coat but the shimmer eye enhancer could use some work. 






FYI; I received these products for free in exchange for my honest review. Im a bzzagent. All opinions are mine and mines alone.

Face Candy Couture

I recently stumbled across a new to me cosmetics brand called Face Candy Couture thanks to Kayotic Makeup. I contacted the lovely owner Shantle and was able to sample some eyeshadow pigments from Face Candy Couture. The pigments I received were Clarissa, Nicole's Green, Chill, Pretty, and Damask Grey. *they Are swatched in the same order below* They are all pretty colors and highly pigmented and super easy to apply. The samples came packaged in little baggies. Though the note included claims this is enough for one application I could easily do a couple of looks with these samples.

So instead of just swatching the colors I did a look incorporating all of the colors. And because you all know my camera is sucky I included several pics.

Im really liking these pigments and definitely plan on making a purchase after the New Year. My favorites are Pretty Clarissa , and damask grey. You can find out more about these and everything else Shantle has to offer at Face Candy Couture or

Wet N Wild Palettes

Hey chicas. I hope all is well. I know Im always promising to show you guys some makeup so here it is. As you all well know I love a bargain and I dont feel I should have to spend a mountain of cash to look good so here are some staples in my makeup arsenal. Ive always loved Wet N Wild for their nail polish and lipsticks and now their eyeshadows. I purchased these about a month ago and havent put them down yet I used these palettes like everyday. All of the colors are super pigmented I usually use them over a shadow primer so they stay put all day. I swatched all without a base so you could see how pigmented they really are. I believe these retail for about $4.99 at Rite Aid or other major drugstores.

So yes dont walk run to the store and snatch these up they are so worth it. And rumor is that the LE holiday "Night Elf" palette has like 3 or Mac dupes. So I hope you guys enjoyed this post I plan on doing more cosmetics post and reviews in the future. I will be doing more FOTD and potentially some tutorials on how to get the look or at least what products I used to achieve said look. Toodlez
