Designer Brands Chubby Lipstick Crayon in Enchanted Rose

I have always wanted to try the Clinique Chubby Sticks but never wanted to pay the high price tag. So thank you Designer Brands for coming up with your own version for me to try!

There are four shades in their wind-up Chubby range - Dollface, Guava Kiss, Kiss and Tell and Enchanted Rose. I purchased 411 Enchanted Rose.



 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 







Colour: It is a dusty pink colour.

Pigmentation: Covers like a lipstick, 7/10.

Application: It is easy to apply - much easier than applying a lipstick. It's more like you are applying a lip gloss.

Texture: Smooth, creamy and hydrating.

Longevity: It was 4 hours before I had to re-apply.

Packaging: Standard DB black packaging with silver writing.

Price: $7.99.


Overall: I really can't fault anything about this product. I love the colour, easy application, texture and its longevity. I was also pleasantly surprised by its pigmentation.

Natio Tanning Wipes: The Best Thing Since the Invention of Sliced Bread!

Are they?! Yes, they are bloody awesome! With these, I save time and I also save my white bathroom tiles! Who would have thought of such a simple thing? I wish I did.

Simply put, each tanning wipe is the size of a baby wipe. And, for me, one tanning wipe does both legs.

They are fast drying, give a natural even looking sunless tan and tan is buildable so you can achieve your desired shade.

To use just apply onto the skin evenly. Takes 3 hours for tan to develop.




 
 
 
 
 
 



Natio tanning wipes come in a pack of 6 individual wipes for (if I recall correctly) $7.95.

Ulta3 Nail Colour Mojito Review

If you like green and all things bright then this is the colour for you. This colour is just as vibrant on the nails as it is in the bottle.  It is especially trendy right now with all the brights available this season. Think of this nail colour as a cheap thrill for this season :)

The photos's taken inside don't do this colour any justice. Put it this way it's a tree frog green but the photo's make it look like an aquamarine. Take a look at the last pic for a wow moment!

Clarins One-Step Facial Cleanser Review





The first time I tried this cleanser it was a gift with purchase but I have bought it since. And though it's not one of my favourite cleansers I do love its simplicity of use. I use this cleanser on the nights I am too tired to cleanse my skin properly. All you need to do to remove make-up is to apply it to your face using a make-up remover pad, with no need to rinse.

The downside to this product for me, I have to admit, is that it can leave the skin feeling like it has an oily residue and it doesn't always remove all traces of make-up. So in this case I recommend following with a toner just to be sure.

Conclusion:
Can leave skin feeling like it has an oily residue and doesn't always remove all make-up however it is simple to use with no need to rinse.

Nail Polish Colour Review: O.P.I Uh-Oh Roll Down The Window

I borrowed this O.P.I colour from a friend. Well, we switched my O.P.I Stranger Tides and her O.P.I Uh-Oh Roll Down The Window for a week just to try different green nail polish for ourselves.

This Green from O.P.I, depending on how you look at it, looks likes green olives, sewage or pureed seaweed. Forgetting all that, it is a pretty green colour and something a little different.

Two thick coats on each nail achieved this look.
