Urban Decay Revolution Lipstick - Swatches & Review

Hello Beauties <3

I know I am late to this Urban Decay party, but better late than never. I have a bunch of these mini lipsticks but no full size. Who can pass up a good deal, right? When I saw they were 50% off, I knew it was time to add to my ever growing collection of lipstick.

Rush - pink mauve

1993 - matte medium brown

Naked 2 - medium beige nude

Naked - nude pink

Rapture - dusty mauve

Turn On - rosy pink

Fiend - muted rose

Bittersweet - matte bright purple

After Dark - matte medium dark berry pink

Venom - bright plum

Jilted - deep fuchsia shimmer with blue shift

Shame - deep berry

A luxury lipstick that delivers intense color payoff plus creamy shine. These Revolution Lipsticks are rich and buttery with the signature Urban Decay pigment-rich color you crave. Plan to be addicted for sure. Revolution Lipsticks glide on without dragging or skipping and hugs every curve. Just one swipe gives you a big, gorgeous lay down of color. And with shades that range from gorgeous nudes to bold brights, there’s something for everyone. 

For me. the darker shades like Venom, Bittersweet, After Dark lasted all day. From early in the morning until late at night, these lipsticks survived eating and drinking and I still needed a makeup wipe to remove it before bed.

Sephora Hauls - April 2016

Hello Beauties <3

April was a heavy haul month for me. There were too many great deals that were hard to pass up. Sephora had their 15% off sale so I was able to stock up on my Too Faced Born This Way foundation and Wen Deluxe Healthy Hair Care kit. Then Sephora had some Urban Decay + Gwen Stefani products on sale. I picked up some Sephora Favorites sets as well as some pretty good promos.

I'm hoping there aren't too many more good deals for awhile (A girl can hope, right?)

Hip Hip Hooray....another Sephora Haul

Hello Beauties <3

It's time to share a few Sephora hauls from the last month or so. I always seem to take forever to take pictures and load to compete blog posts......but as I always say, better late than never!!

This is the time of the year when Sephora has some sort of deal going on that is too good to pass up, hence the many duplicates. A girl always needs beauty backups.

Here is a close up of this gorgeous lip set. Click below for full review and swatches
