Riri hearts MAC Lipsticks in Talk that Talk , Nude, and Riri woo

Talk that Talk (Retro Matte)

Price $16.50

Available: October 3,2013

Overall grade: C

Talk that Talk is a deep plum when applied, it is not as deep as it looks in the tube. Talk that Talk was very Patchy and uneven when applied. It really accentuated the dry areas of my lips and my lines. It was a bit drying being that its retro matte , there is no moisture in this lipstick. If you want to wear this lipstick  you will need to layer a lips with a lip liner then apply talk that talk. 

Nude (Matte)

Price: $16.50

Available : October 3,2013

Overall grade: A

Nude is perhaps not the nude lip color suitable for my skin tone(medium/olive) , But I give it an A anyways because it performs very well. If you are a woman of color this is the PERFECT nude for you .If you are my skin tone/or fairer you will have to play with lip liners a bit to make this lipstick suitable for you. But never the less this color is very pigmented .

Riri Woo (Retro Matte)

Price: $16.50

Available: October 3,2013

Overall grade: B

Riri woo is Rihannas remake of  MAC's "Ruby woo" but Riri woo is much brighter. The formula of Riri Woo is very dry. Much dryer than Talk that Talk in my opinion. But the pigment is great and smooth , its very even.

Riri hearts MAC "Hibiscus kiss" Powder Blush duo

Riri hearts MAC "Hibiscus kiss" Powder Blush duo 

Price: $29.00

Available: October 3,2013

Overall grade: C

Hibiscus kiss is a Bronzer and Blush duo , The bronzer is a matte medium toned brown , and the blush is a bright coral with gold frost. Ill be honest , I only really love the packaging and presentation of this blush duo. It was not as pigmented as I have expected. I wish that the blush and bronzer is 50/50 ; The amount of blush in this compact is so minimal. 

Riri Hearts MAC "Diamonds" Cream color base

Riri Hearts MAC "Diamonds" Cream color base

Price: $22.00

Available: October 3,2013

Overall grade: A

"Diamonds" in my opinion is the most universal product in this collection. Cream color bases can be used as Highlighters, Eye shadow bases , and as a lipstick/lip shimmer. I enjoy the texture of diamonds in particular because it dries to a powder finish. It is not sticky or tacky at all ,It feels really light. But the pigment it nothing short of amazing ! I like that this is a champagne color , because it makes it wearable for all skin tones !

Anastasia Beverly Hills Lavish Palette

Anastasia Beverly Hills Lavish Palette 

Anastasia has released her holiday palette called "Lavish" properly named with the right packaging illustrations. This is a medium sized palette with a magnetic closure . I love the attention to detail that was put into creating the design for this palette , Its dripping with gold which in my mind is the definition of Lavish ! read more for swatches .

Anastasia Beverly Hills Eye Covet

Anastasia Beverly Hills Eye Covet waterproof liners

Anastasia has released her fall 2013 eyeliner collection recently with 7 liners in a variety of finishes. In this set there are 2 mattes and 5 shimmers. These are not the standard eye liner size's , I would say these liners are about medium sized. All of these colors are jewel tones and neutral , but in my opinion I wont be using most of these colors. There is a black which I will get a lot of uses from. But apart from that , im not so sure about the rest of the colors . I have a huge appreciation for the formula of all the liners, matte and shimmer alike . The formula is very soft and pigment , the shimmer liners were not gritty, I did not feel the shimmers rubbing onto my skin. I would agree that these liners are smudge-proof , but not all that water proof. When I apply the black or brown liner on my water line the liners would still run on the outer eye corner. read more for swatches and more info!

Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz 

Raved about on YouTube and Beauty Blogs , and numerously claimed to be a "Holly Grail" eyebrow product Anastasia's Brow Wiz is one of her top sellers. This is a duo ended brow product , on one end you have a retractable brow pencil and on the opposite end you have a very thin/detailed spooly.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Perfect Brow Pencil

Anastasia Beverly Hills Perfect Brow Pencil

My first impression of this pencil was that for 23$ this product may not be the best , being that it requires some sharpening. But once I swatched the Perfect Brow Pencil I noticed that It was not too pigmented (Good thing ! you don't want a TOO pigmented brow pencil) . With that being said , you wont be sharpening this pencil too often. I like the amount of pigment this pencil gives off , because it makes your lash hairs look more natural. The spooly on the opposite end is very soft , I appreciate that because it blends out the pencil beautifully.

And get this , they are dirt cheap in price ! But expensive in quality. This review will be all about Sephora's cream lip stains and just how much of this brand much your missing out on.

OVER ALL GRADE: A+
