$20 Makeup Challenge Tags and Response Videos!

Hey everyone!

So when I saw the $20 Tag going around, I was really excited!  Since everyone knows that I am into good and affordable makeup, I knew I had to do this challenge!  I don't do that many tag videos, and I don't think that I have ever tagged anyone before.  Well now that I am starting to get to know a few wonderful fellow YouTubers, I thought I would tag them for fun!  And to my surprise, quite a few of them responded with their own $20 Makeup Challenge videos!  And boy are they wonderful!  I will start with mine first, and see all the rest below including such awesome Youtube divas emilynoel83, MissBecky0207, GlowMyWay, AprilAthena7, airahmorena08 chicachew, and cosmeticcouturier

Enjoy!!

 Left to Right: Lovesick, Charm, Cherish, Rendez-vous

 OK I instantly fell in love with these when I saw someone blog about it.  I was like, I HAVE to get these.  And I finally spotted these at Rite Aid and I grabbed them so quickly!  I got four colors.  Here's my short review.  To see a more detailed review, please see my video below!

Pros:
-Great Pigmentation
-Buildable Color
-Smooth Application
-Wide Range Of Gorgeous Colors
-Long Lasting
-Affordable at around $7-8
-A real mix between a balm and lip stain
-A very slight mint smell
-Retratable
-Cute Packaging

Cons:
-Can make your lips dry after a few hours
-Not as moisturizing as I expected.  I still prefer the texture of the Clinique Chubby Sticks
-Can be tricky to remove as it becomes a stain

Tip to make it work:
-Reapply after a few hours to avoid getting dry lips (especially after eating and drinking)
-Build up the pigmentation by applying it a few times

NEW Revlon Photo Ready Cream Blush

 

I spotted these the new PhotoReady Cream Blush at Bed Bath & Beyond.  I have not yet seen these at Drugstores, but these look quite good!  It's about $10-11, making it not such an affordable product. It does look good and gives me the MAC vibe.  

Have you seen these and will you be picking these up?

H&M Cosmetics??

Ok Is it just me or is H&M turning more and more like Forever21? Now their Cosmetic section is expanding lots! There's a whole isle of it!

If you follow me on YouTube, you may have seen me haul a palette from hong kong H&M and it's now finally showing up in America! That palette is quite decent and perhaps I will do a look from it on YouTube.

Have you seen some of this at your local H&M and what do you think of it?

NEW Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain for Lips

OK I think the people at Rite Aid's Registers heard my little squeal when I saw these Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain for Lips FINALLY!  I have been searching for these up and down everywhere with no success.  I own and LOVE the Clinique Chubby Sticks so I was beyond excited to get these!

Well I got four of these babies and review of this will be up very soon! I will be comparing them to the Clinique ones!  Stay tuned everyone!!

NEW Revlon Colorstay Whipped Creme Makeup

So I have heard about this new foundation from other blogs. It claims to have 24 hours lasting power.

I lifted one of these up and it is quite heavy. I was shocked! And there does not seem to be too many shades and the shades seem to come in light. Maybe I missed something. I spotted these at Rite Aid.

Has anyone tried this yet? Any thoughts?

NEW Milani Glitzy Glamour Gloss 2012 Swatches & Review

Milani came out with two new colors for their newest Glitzy Glamour Gloss!
Top: Show Stopper
Bottom: High Status

There is no doubt that just from looking at the tubes that these colors look gorgeous.

Left: "Show Stopper" is an opaque rosy pink color with a cream finish. 
Right: "High Status" is a peachy nude color with gold shimmers, also a cream finish.
 

Above: "Show Stopper"

Above: High Status"

I don't know if you can tell, but "Show Stopper" is not only a better color for me personally, but it is also much more opaque.  In person, it is stunning.  This photo really doesn't do it justice.  "High Status" is not opaque enough, and non-flattering for my lips.  The shimmer goes everywhere.  The gloss as well as the shimmer settles into my lips' fine lines making them look unflattering and accentuated.   However, I think that it might work over a lipstick.

In general, both glosses glide on your lips smoothly and they last few a good few hours.  They have a light bubble gum smell to them and they are not sticky.  And the price is just right at around $7.50!

Top: "Show Stopper" 

Bottom: "High Status"

Summary:

Pros: 

Beautiful Colors

Affordable: $7.49/0.12 oz at CVS!

Long Wear

Creamy and easy application

Not sticky at all

Cons:

"High Status" is not opaque

"High Status"'s shimmer goes everywhere

Check them out and let me know what you think?
