REVIEW! An interesting make-up remover!

A few weeks ago my mom introduced me to a make-up remover she has been using for quite some time now.

I have been pretty interested in beauty balms and I was thinking of picking one of from Clinique that I have had my eye on for a while. I was telling my mom about it and she whipped out this little jar of magic for me to try.

It's called Albolene. I have never heard of this product before but she said it's been around forever.
Albolene says that it's a moisturizing cleanser, which I find to be true. It removes your make-up so easily and quickly and leaves your skin so soft afterwards.

How you use this product is, you get a damp towel and simply dip the towel into the jar and wipe away your makeup. The first time I tried this I got my whole face wet and try to lather up the product onto my skin which did NOT work! It honestly scared me a little bit! haha. The second time I tried it I used it with the damp towel and my make-up just dissolved (even waterproof mascara!). You can leave this product on your face to double as a moisturizer, but I have a daily cleansing routine that I'm religious to so I cant imagine just leaving this on my skin, but my mom leaves it on and she loves it!

After the first time I used this product it took my make-up off so well that when I used my toner right after, there was no dirt or make-up on my cotton pad!

The consistency is a little jelly like, and fairly oily so thats why I was having trouble with it when I used it with water.

My mom bought this at Walgreens for about $12, I haven't checked it out myself yet but I take her word for it :) It's a 12oz tub so it lasts absolutely forever. I'm sure you can find it at CVS, amazon, etc.

I'm dedicated to this product now and it's such a great drugstore find, and hopefully you'll love it too!

Have fun!

Best of the Best! Lipsticks

I think it's pretty obvious that I'm a huge mascara junkie! But after mascara, I think I'm a pretty huge lipstick junkie! I just think lipstick is one of those things that you can't have too many of. These are my five favorite lipsticks ever!

5. Revlon Pink Sugar
Pink Sugar is a really nice mix between a nude and a pink. It's pretty shimmery, so I usually wear it on its own, rather than with a gloss, but you can do whatever you want!

4. Milani Flirty Fuchsia
I love a hot pink lip, and Flirty Fuchsia is by far my favorite pink in my collection! It's really bright, but yet blue toned so it makes your teeth look whiter! I think this is a pink that any skin tone can pull off.





















3. MAC Rebel
I guess I should let you know now, I LOVE bold lips. Rebel is the perfect mix of a dark, yet bright lipstick. It's a dark plumy-pinky color that I love to whip out when the weather cools down.

2. Milani Dulce Caramelo
This is the most perfect nude shade. It's pretty much a "my lips but better" color but with a hint of gold shimmer!



















1. MAC Ruby Woo
Ruby Woo is by far my favorite lipstick of all time! It's such a beautiful red color that is so flattering on everyone. It's a blue toned red, so it'll make your teeth look white also! But it's also matte, which is how I like to wear my bold lipsticks!

Just a tip! If you ever want to make your lipstick matte, or more matte just use some powder over your lips or the same shade eyeshadow on your lips. For example if you are wearing a creamy red lip, if you have a red eyeshadow, or cranberry eyeshadow around simply press it onto your lips and it will give your lipstick more dimension and matte! If you don't have a matching eyeshadow, just use a translucent powder or simply your face powder onto your lips!

If you're scared of bold lips, hopefully you'll try these because they honestly look so good on everyone! Have fun!

Best of the Best: MASCARA!

I've decided to start a new little series on my blog called "Best of the Best!" I decided to start it out with Mascara, so I'll be telling you five of my absolute my favorite mascaras that I always go back to! 

5. MAKE-UP FOREVER Smoky Lash Mascara

This mascara is a fairly dry formula, so you can either have a natural lash, or build it for a pretty dramatic lash with this product. I really love this mascara because all you need is a few coats to really achieve a great looking lash. This mascara is a volumizing mascara, but will hold a curl very well if you  use an eyelash curler. 

4. Lancome Hypnose Mascara

I feel like this mascara is constantly hyped up, but for a very good reason! This mascara is such an all in one mascara. It volumizes, and lengthens in just a couple coats, and isn't too difficult to take off! 

3. Maybelline the Falsies Mascara 

This mascara is so cheap, and gets the job done so well when it comes to mascara. Is is a fairly wet formula, so it takes a couple days to dry up a little bit and really gives you the effect you want. It takes me a few coats to get the lashes that I like with this mascara, but the effect it gives is so worth it!

2. L'Oreal Shocking Extensions Mascara

The Shocking Extensions mascara is one of those make-up items that I cannot live without. It makes my lashes so long with just a couple coats. It holds a curl all day, and is easy to wash off!

1. L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black Mascara

This is seriously the best mascara that I have ever used. I think I started using this mascara when I was about 14! It gives you the most voluminous, and thick lashes in just a couple coats. It feels like a high-end mascara, and gives better results than some of my expensive mascaras. This mascara really reminds me of the Bobbi Brown Smokey Eye Mascara, it's a pretty good dupe! L'Oreal Voluminous is always in my make-up bag!

I hope you found this helpful, and encourage you to try out some new mascaras if you haven't tried any of these out before! 

Merry Christmas Y'all!
