Collective Makeup Review




Hey all! Today in Cincinnati it's rainy and gloomy so I decided to do a review on some items I recently bought. I can't remember the exact cost of each item so I will try to update this a a later time. Also I'm gonna start my own rating scale by using a scale of 1 to 10 lip glosses. SO NOW.... ON WITH THE SHOW....


1.) Avon's "In A Wink" Eyeshadow sheets in look at me Lavender. RATING: 1 Lip gloss out of 10 *EPIC FAIL*. This product was my least favorite of everything I bought from Avon. You apply the sheets to your eyes and rub across it gently to apply the shadow to give the affect of a completed look. The sheet applies WAY to much product to the eye area. It doesn't fit to the contours of every eye shape, it's too powder like so it goes every where, and the pigment is really dull. The product comes with 14 sheets and I would not recommend this to anyone but if you do like it I would just apply the shadow with a brush and/or use Avon's True Color eyeshadow quad in Purple Haze which is a much better buy!

2.) Dior's Dior Kiss lip gloss in Sorbet Meringue. RATING: 5 lip glosses out of 10. Okay, so I will admit to any one that I'm absolutely obsessed with Christian Dior anything! Anyone who knows me knows this but I rate this gloss low just for specific reasons. The gloss is really pretty with a white pigment and lots of shimmer. I rate it low just for this reason and for the texture. It's not the kind of gloss you would wear daily and not the best for moisturizing the lips. The gloss however is great for adding high lights to the lips over a lip color and or to high light the cupid's bow of the lip. Oh yes! The scent is heavenly; smells like a dessert. All in all this is a great product if you use it in these ways and it'll last a long time to!

3.) Avon's Moisture Effective Eye Makeup Remover Lotion. RATING: 10 lip glosses out of 10! This eye makeup remover is one of the best I've ever used. After my disappointment with Avon's eyeshadow sheets, I needed something to wipe it off with. I was actually really surprised how quickly this product took off all my makeup and not only that, it moisturized my skin really well. I highly recommend this product because it does exactly what it's suppose to do and more. It's a great buy and you only need a little bit on a cotton ball to wipe your makeup off; this will make last you a long time.
4.) Maybelline's Dream Liquid Mousse and Super Stay 24 HR Wear Foundation in Cocoa - Dark 3. 10 lip glosses out of 10! Best foundations I've ever used. Really beautiful finishes for both products and they blend in really lovely with my skin. You don't have to use a lot in order to get full coverage. The 24 hour stay foundation is my favorite since it's getting warmer out because it stays on through sweat, rain, dancing and it doesn't transfer on to your clothes. This is a brilliant product and I completely recommend this. The Dream Liquid Mousse is another good one but I would use it in cooler weather and this one rubs off a bit more, so you just have to be cautious with your attire.
5.) Maybelline Eye Studio Eyeliner in Blackest Black. RATING: 10 out of 10 lip glosses....No actually this one is off the charts! OH MY GOODNESS! This Eyeliner gel pot is so amazing! It's another Maybelline product that last for 24 hours. I fell asleep with this on and I know I should not have but I did after a party I went to with a friend. The next morning I woke up and looked in the mirror and not an inch was out of place or smeared. This eye liner comes with a nice little liner brush and it's only 8 bucks! GREAT DEAL!
Well that's all for today kids but stay alert for new products to come!
