Wet n Wild Megalast Lip Color Lipsticks in Just Peachy, Mauve outta here & Think Pink

Hey Everyone How are you all doing :) 
I bet you are wondering what is in this bag eh?? 
Well its actually items I received from a swap with the lovely Shirley from Superhipmama :)  
I befriended Shirley through the bloggers world and we hit it off straight away.  She is a mum herself but loves everything beauty related she has just started making videos of her own and doing brilliantly with them.  She is also a certified Makeup artist.  So we got chatting one day after i posted up a review with some Catrice Make-up and she really wanted to try it out as Catrice is not available in America.  So we arranged this swap in which I was so happy to do as i had a few items on my wishlist that I cant get over here.  So we agreed to a price and got to work on getting the products.  This was about 3 months ago and now I can finally review all the items for you.  I am going to do separate posts as I dont want the post been too long and they deserve a separate post hehehe :) 
Shirley will be doing a review on the items I sent her too :) 
So the first Items I am going to review Is the Wet N Wild Megalast Lip Color Lipsticks
Oh i Love Wet n Wild Its an amazing brand and i hate the fact that its not available here :(  I love their eyeshadow palettes in which i have reviewed The Trios and the 8 Pan Eyeshadow  Palettes.  
I have had the pleasure of experiencing this lipstick before around the time i first started blogging I did a mini review on the shade and still to this day i love it it was the shade "bare it all" which is a fantastic nude lipstick. 
So i just had to try more shades.  
Lips take center stage! This 4-hour, longwearing lip color leaves a semi-matte, crème finish in one stroke. Glides on easily with rich, velvety color that doesn't cake, feather, or bleed. Made with hydrating skin-care ingredients: Hyaluronic Microspheres provide extraordinary adhesion to lips, an exclusive polymer complex offers cushion-like feel and texture, and natural marine plant extracts Coenzyme Q10 and Vitamins A & E help smooth lips.
Imagine there are 26 different shades to choose from so there is bound to be a shade for every skin tone isnt that amazing and whats more amazing is that these lipsticks cost about $2.99 depending on what store you get them from thats 2.30 euros each BARGAIN!!!!
Lets Start off with the Shades I Got 
This is the one I was most excited about trying as i seen quite a few reviews on it :) 
This shade is bright and cheerful.  Its a warm toned Peachy/Coral shade.  The finish is a Matte finish. 
Next up is.......
Now this shade is perfect for Fall/Autumn I Love it.   This is alot cooler toned than Just Peachy :) Its a stunning Pinky/Purple shade and I found this had more of a satin matte finish.  I love this shade and I found it worked brilliantly with my skin tone :) 
And Lastly......
This one i am afraid is my least favourite out of the 3.  Its a little pale so anyone with a pale complexion might find it a little light.  Its more of a bubblegum pinky shade.  i have found this to be very very pigmented and works better on my when applied lightly it looks stunning.  Another thing i found with this shade is that its quite thick compared to the rest and a little powdery looking as its matte but with a little gloss on top or balm underneath this shade works wonderfully 
I Absolutely love these.  The fact that these are almost matte they are amazing.  They are creamy and very pigment a little goes a long long way with them.  Ok the packaging isnt exactly what you can fantastic but what do you expect for the price its more about the product anyway.  They claim to last 4 hours well its true i found they did last but to be honest i prefer the lip balm before applying rather than wearing them on their own.  If you have dry lips the lipstick will surely emphasis that if you dont moisturise your lips.  
I love the Just peachy and the Mauve outta here.  The Think Pink is a little hard work but worth i at the end of it all.  
If i was to pick out a con for these I would say the packaging will get messy.  The fact that the lipstick is creamy you will find yourself making a little mess while applying to your lips but a little wipe of tissue and its al fixed :) 
All i can say is you got to try them really for the price they are the best Lower price lipstick i have ever tried thats for sure :) 
I will certainly be purchasing some more shades in these for sure :) 
here is swatches of them on my lips pictures taken in natural lighting 
See how i can make Think Pink work for me "ye baby" I love it :) 
So that is it for part 1 of my reviews on my items from my latest swap 
Have you tried these little beauties yet?
What do you think of them :) 
Until next time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter 







I love love love hearing from you all :) I make it my duty to read each and every one of you comments and every time i get a comment from you it highlights my day thanks so so much to you all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Catrice New Defining Blush in Rose Royce and Think Pink Review

Hey my beauties how are you all doing today :) 
Wow the sun is shining today again I love it I love Autumn. 
Today I am reviewing A new range of blush that Catrice Cosmetics only released in September along with other new permanent products to their collection.  I was excited about the blushes in particular as I was fond of the older "Duo Defining Blushes" especially in shade "Pink Grapefruit Shake" which had half blush half highlighter.  I still to this day find myself reaching for it alot.  I was dissappointed when Catrice decided to discontinue them :(  
Here is a picture of the old Duo Defining Blush if you do come across it grab it as it is beautiful 
So instead of getting rid of the blushes altogether Catrice decided to just get rid of the Duo and make it 1 :) To be honest i prefer that as i found i was using the blush more than the highlight anyway 
Catrice release 5 new blushes altogether.  So far i got 2 of the 5 .  You are getting 5g of blush for about 4 euro which is brilliant as these will last a while.  The packaging is plain and simple but sturdy, I like that!!! Not only that but you can depot these easily into your own empty palette :) 
According to Catrice:  The ultra-fine, highly-pigmented powder blush with vitamin C and E spreads easily, sets fresh accents, emphasizes your cheekbones and models the contours of your face. Top marks for a perfect finish.
First up is 020 Rose Royce :)  This shade is a perfect shade for anyone who has fair to medium skintone.  What i love is the name Rose Royce lol how do they do it :) 
This is a really pretty nuetral pink.  A perfect blush for every day use.  I find this nice to give me just a nice natural pretty healthy flush.  It can be a little sheer on me and i have to build it up but it is buildable.  
Next up 
040 Think Pink:  This is my favourite out of the 2 so far :)  you can even tell just by looking at it that its going to be pigmented.  This is a beautiful bright pink with a little orange undertone to it. Oh this is really really pigmented ok its a little powdery when swatched but nothing too crazy and you dont loose alot of product.  This is perfect for any skintone and gives a fantastic flush of colour to your cheeks I even see myself wearing this alot in the winter :) 
I am super excited about these blushes.  I think they are even better in pigmentation than the Duo Blushes they used to do.  They are easy to apply.  They a silk smooth and feel amazing on the skin.  They last a good part of the day you will get at least 6 hours out of them before you notice a little fading.  I notice i get a beautiful natural glow from these especially from Think Pink.  I highly recommend these to anyone as they are super affordable and well worth every cent.  
Here i am wearing a light sweep of "Think Pink" 
Believe me when i tell you ladies i have no natural flush on my cheeks unfortunately :( I wasnt blessed with it.  
Have you tried any of Catrice's Blushes?
Until next time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter
