Yo.
Your girl’s been busy. You know when you’re running around and you don’t have time to collect your thoughts. This is where I am right now, but it’s all good.
The regular schedule will be back next week, but to let you know that I haven’t forgotten you, I wanted to share.
I like makeup. I am not a makeup artist or an expert, but I try a ting every now and then. I went to a Sephora makeup event with my sister for the launch of Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty line and launch of all the holiday makeup sets for the season.
I got samples of the Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Foundation and will purchase it–but right now, I need more foundation like I need a slap. Anyhow, I am a lover of eyeshadows, so I bought a Tarte Limited-Edition Treasure Box Collector’s Set ($77 CDN). Included in the box was a lip paint and, y’all, I fell in love with their lip paint.
Oh my goodness. I ❤ it–the staying power was amazing. I hate having to reapply lipstick every two minutes. You chew a piece of gum, you reapply. You lick your lip, you reapply. You sip from a straw, you reapply.
It’s annoying.
When you find something that works, you work with it, right? So, when I saw the Tarte Limited-Edition Posh Pout Quick Dry & Glossy Lip Set ($47 CDN), I jumped on it.
Can I say I squealed when I opened the lovely Sephora box. I saw this:
Of course, I couldn’t wait to test them out. I’ve only gotten to two of them, but they are so nice and moist. Even the matte lip paint. I tend to have dry lips, so I reject matte lipsticks because my lips look like graters…and I have full lips.
Not a good combo.
With the Tarte lip paints, they looked soft, moist and the colour was really pigmented. Not to mention, I didn’t have to reapply 16 times during the day. Even after drinking my Starbucks’ Peppermint Mocha (which was great by the way).
Overall, I’m super happy with the Tarte brand. I’ve liked all of their products that I’ve tried. So, I will be buying this brand again.
So, what’s your favourite makeup brand? Are you a MAC girl? Or is it Urban Decay? Has Fenty Beauty stolen your heart?
