Products not worth buying


 I am not a person who likes to do negative reviews, but I have two lip products that I have gotten, that I just do not care for no matter how I use them or what I do with them. These are things that I got with my own money and kind of sad about them not working out.
  The first lippies is from a web site called The Body Needs. It is their lip luster in Tokyo Pink. The packaging is simple and that is one of the reasons why it is a cheap price. I would have really loved for it to work because the color is so pretty. The site says it is a dupe for MAC’s St. Germain, having not used or seen St. Germain in person I cannot say yes or no to that. For this is that the lip luster is super soft and gooey. It is in a very thin lipstick tube, and I would have thought that is would have stayed like a normal lipstick, but it is nothing like it. I cannot twist it back down because it is so soft and yucky. It goes on your lips like a gooey, sloppy mess. It does not go on smooth; it is super hard to get a smooth coat on your lips. Once you put your lips together it is all over the place again. It is just a greasy mess that never sets or stays in place. I have tried it with lip liner, concealer, anything I can think of to make it stop bleeding and stay put. I did get a sample of MAC’s Candy Yum Yum from the site which was great. The shipping took around two weeks, but there were no problems at all with that, or ordering from the site. I would think about ordering more samples from them, because I cannot see spending the price on a full tube of MAC that I will never use all of, but I will shy away from their lip products. Within the next two weeks, I am going to look into ordering some of their eye products so I can share what I think of them with you. They have amazing colors at a good price that I would love to try.



   The next product is the Wet n Wild megalast liquid lip color. The only color I have is Click on my hyperpink ,924A, I am very glad it is the only color that I have. I LOVE this color to death and wished this was not a negative post about the product.  First thing I noticed was the scent; it reminds me of old burned plastic and just makes me want to put it away as soon as I open it. It goes on smooth and even with no problems. The problems come into play once it starts to set. It gets so dry on my lips I cannot stand it. It settles in every line of your lips so it makes them look dry and yucky too. When I put it on I put lip balm on first, then apply the megalast and top with a lip gloss. I am still not sure if I like it how it looks this way. The lip color still settles in the lines and makes it a little blotchy. I have not tried to see how long it lasts because I am not happy with it and just take it off again. Overall the color is gorgeous and very pigmented, but it is so drying and settles into lines so it makes me not want to wear it. It also leaves nasty pink on everything from cups to food.

Maybelline Dr. Rescue Baby Lips!!!

OK ladies, I will admit it I am a lip junkie and a Maybelline lip junkie at that.  I have been hunting high and low since I heard that there was a new Baby Lips coming out. I have almost all of them that have come out. I LOVE them and always have at least one in my bag. I looked high and low in my town the last few weeks trying to find the Maybelline Dr. Rescue and today I sort of struck gold. I honestly forgot that we had a Rite Aid in town because I never go in to it, but I had time and saw it so I went in. BINGO, they had them, but they only had one color left. That made me sad, but happy because I could at least try one. I got the pink one and of course I forgot to save the package to get the real color name. I have been using it since I got it this afternoon. It is a menthol lip balm and I love that so much. You put it on and it tingles and cools your lips. It makes them feel soft and refreshed.  This one gives your lips just a soft hint of pink, which is great for on the go. This is great because you never need a mirror to put a little on. I put it on twice in an eight hour period and it lasted both times and kept my lips feeling great. I highly recommend these and there will be more added to the review when I find more colors and get some more use out of them. I was just too excited to wait and share that I found them.

Cover Girl Outlast Lipstain

I gave the Cover girl Outlast lip stain a try, so I thought I would share with you. The one I used was number 400, unfortunately since I took the package off I could not find the color name. It is a magic marker form with the felt tip. This type of lip product is one of my favorite because I think it goes on with so much control. It goes on nice and smooth with lots of color. It is very wet when first applied and dries in seconds. The only time I smelled anything is if I smelled the marker its self.  Once it dries it is not to drying on the lips or sticky at all. I personally like my lips very moisturized so I did swipe on a little bit of baby lips before I walked out of the house, if I did not have that I would have been ok with just the lip stain.

  I put it on around 1:30 before work and went about my day. I had it on until I got home at 10:30 without touch up. I saw around 6:30 that I still had color. It was not as dark, but there. I also did not have to put on any more lip gloss. It was not over drying the rest of the day. When I got home at 10:30 there was a tiny bit of color left. Overall I really love this stuff. I will be going out to get more colors. They are not over drying and lasted for hours through eating, drinking, smoking, and lip licking. I really have no cons for this product. If I find some I will update on them.
