Hello my loves today I wanted to share with you all some goodies I picked up over the last few weeks. Some have been raved about for a bit now so I am sure you all have heard all about them .
As you can see quite a few goodies.
Will begin with these awesome new L'Oreal Colour Riche Caress Lipsticks. They retail for $7.99 which I will admit is a bit steep n my opinion for drugstore.

These are great on the go for me. I like being able to put on a lip product on the go without having to worry about finding a mirror to apply. It deposits just the right amount of color for me and very moisturizing. There is something about L'Oreal Lip products that attract my attention and I think it is the scent. I love the scent of there lip products and these smell so fruity and yummy to me.
So I know how crazy most of you have gone over these Revlon Kissable Lip Stain things:

These were such a mission to find in my area and had to hunt them down for a bit. These have been compared to the Clinique Chubby Sticks which go for $15
If you were a lover of the Lip butters you will love these too. When I 1st tried these I will say I was like "what it the big deal?" The one shade I had tried just wasnt working for me and took me some time to get use to the smell . There is a lingering mintiness to these that just threw me off for a bit. After some playing around and trying different shades, I found the ones that worked for me and I fell in love.
These sell for a little over $6 and come in a variety of shades.
My nifty little storage for them on my vanity lol. Test tube shot glasses. From 5 Below. Filled the tubes with filler and fits makeup brushes lip glosses and just loved the print on them.

These twist ate the bottom to get more product and leave a subtle stain on the lips after.
By now you should all know how obsessed I am with the L'Oreal Infallible Eyeshadows. I have done a few posts on them in the asts and if you havent checked them out be sure to click here and here to see the other posts. I just love these pressed pigments and how long wearing they are.
Now for some ELF goodies. Now you know I love me some budget friendly makeup goodies so I had to check these out after my good buddy Tammy from Not a Rich Girl tweeted me that they had a blush named.......
Yup thats right!!! As much as I would like to think it was named after my lil ol bloggy, I am sure the color says it all.
These retail for $3 each and are baked products. Now I will say with baked items I find it is best to use them with a damp brush to get the true color payoff. With ELF items can be a bit hit or miss but these are actually ok and even better when used wet.
This shade will serve me best as a highlight due to the shimmer of it all.
Passion Pink
Peachy Cheeky
Rich Rose
(This was an interesting name considering there is nothing "Rose" about it.)
This was swatched wet so you can see how much of a difference the color shows up.
Los Cabos
Last but not lease the Befine Food Skin Care
I am in love with this Exfoliating cleanser. Leaves my skin so clean and soft especially around my nose. I get a lot of blackheads and oily in my T-ZOne so I am always cleaning and exfoliating. The smell is refreshing with Sweet almond, brown sugar , and oats.
No artificial colors, No Animal testing, Safe for all skin types.
I am pretty picky when it comes to bronzer . I prefer matte and this has a hint of a shimmer. Doesnt seem too crazy so will give it a whirl and see how it goes.
Over all think the ELF Blushes are ok for the price Nothing out of this world to be honest.
The L'Oreal items I absolutely love love and find myself always going back for items from this brand.
Revlon always wins my heart when it comes to lip products. I rarely have luck with there foundations so will stick to what I know and love.
