Non Stop Lip Color by Col-Lab Review

Hi Aspirers,

If you remember in one of my previous vlogs I mentioned wanting to get Raven Elyse’s customized matte addiction liquid lip color. If you missed it check out the video.

I finally bought the lip color and what the sales person told me wasn’t completely true. I’m glad I decided to go ahead and purchase the lip color and decide for myself. I was hoping the color was similar to Guerlien 401 Parline Blop but unfortunately it wasn’t but I still love the color.

To be honest just wearing the color as is would of been too light for my skin complexion and I added a brown liner to darken up the color just a bit. The wear of the lip color was okay it didn’t completely smudge off as I was eating my food. I had to to only reapply it once. It’s really light weight on my lips which I love because I hate feeling like I have something on my lips. I will recommend using a lip balm as a base. It doesn’t make your lips dry but it looks dry overtime.

If you’re interested in purchasing Raven Elyse Non-Stop matte lip color check it out at local Sally Beauty store near you or order it on their website.

Review: Hourglass Concealer and Brush 

Hey Aspirers! 

Recently I’ve received a package from Influester to review a product by Hourglass. The package came the day I left for my trip so I couldn’t review it until now. There is a video below on my review plus some extras you didn’t get from my video. 

Again I want to thank Influester and Hourglass for sending me this product to review.

Below is a fact sheet on the Vanish Seamless Finish Foundation Stick. I love how there are so many shades so you’ll be able to find the shade you are looking for. 

Remember in the video I mentioned you dont have to apply concealer with this makeup? Well here is a comparison of my Bobbi Brown concealer and Vanish. You can tell how thick Vanish is next to Bobbi Brown.
