MAC Haul!

* I purchased everything in this post with my own money. I am not being sponsored or paid to share this. Thank you!*



It has been a hot minute since I purchased anything from MAC! I had a hard time not going to crazy... So I only bought three things and I wanted to share swatches of those with you all!


MAC Pro Longwear Concealer in NW20

I was in need of a new under eye concealer and I really like the other MAC concealer that I have so I wanted to give another one a try! The lady at the counter suggested the Pro Longwear Concealer for my oily skin. I have only tried it once, so I can't really tell you too much about it. Although, on first impression, this provides really great coverage and you only need a little bit. I do think that NW20 is a little dark but NW15 was way too light!

MAC Amplified Creme Lipstick in Impassioned

This color is a really beautiful. It is the brighter color of the two I bought. It is just a really pretty bright, almost coralish?, pink! I haven't ever heard anyone talk about this color and to be honest I don't know why! It is so pretty!!



MAC Cremesheen Lipstick in Pink Pearl Pop

This color is the lighter shade and will probably be more of an everyday wear for me! I love it. I a perfect bright/light pink. I think the name really helps to describe it!


These are swatches of the colors built up to what I would wear them as.
(In both pictures Pink Pop Pearl is on top and Impassioned is on the bottom!)


& These are just one swiped of each color!

I hope you found this helpful and informative! If you have any questions please feel free to ask:)

I will also be sharing a Chanel Haul soon! (When it comes in the mail!)

Thank you for stopping by!

Revlon Lip Butter: Review and Swatches


Wow, I'm not sure where to start on these! I held off for such a long time, more like forever, on these lip butters. I never thought that they would be worth the money. Even though these are relatively cheap, I just thought that I wouldn't get the pay of that I wanted. 
Well let me just tell you, I sure did!!


My first purchase from the collection was the shade Cotton Candy ( the middle color above). Shortly after trying this on, in the car on the way home lol, I discovered that I must try more! I was in love.


Shown above is just one swatch of the color. You can already see how pigmented the colors are with just one swatch! I usually swipe it a few times across my lips, I am a sloppy applicator lol, so the color builds up a bit. These are just amazing for drugstore products! I get more moisture from these than I do my Chanel Coco Shine balms. These lip "butters" actually feel like butter on your lips. Weird? Ok, maybe a little. But you get the point, they are moisturizing!    


The color pay off is impressive. To me, this is just my opinion, they remind me slightly of a MAC Creamsheen lipstick when the color is built up. Now, I wouldn't stop by the MAC lipstick and replace it with these, just because I really like the Creamsheen lipsticks. But I can see a slight resemblance between the two. My favorite shade is by far Strawberry Shortcake it is just a beautiful pink that goes great with my skin tone. The shade Juicy Papaya is a new color. I really love this collection and will definitely be purchasing more from it. My last rave about this product is the size and range of the colors.   Revlon provided a huge selection of colors in great shades! So Thank you Revlon!

I hope that you found this post helpful, If so please share it with someone you know!
Have you tried this collection? What are your thoughts and your favorite colors?
