Blogmas #2 | Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains

When I first heard of these I knew they would be perfect for me. I played it safe with the first shade I bought and knew I would eventually and gradually work my way through the colours to try to be more comfortable with brighter colours with a more understated and low maintenance finish.
The packaging is a chubby crayon with a plastic barrel and each barrel is a different colour, which corresponds to the product shade. It has a silver band around the base of the barrel, which you have to turn to dispense the crayon and the plastic cap of the crayon matches the colour of each barrel. When you twist the band to dispense the product, you can see 3.3cm of the actual crayon, but there could be more hiding in the tube and you would just have to use up what you can see to find out for sure. The formula is light and glossy and it has a slight minty scent.
I have two shades called, Honey (001), which is a warm dusty rose with shine and Cherish (015), which is a bright pale pink with shine.
This chubby lip crayon is supposed to be lightweight and moisturising, as well as making your lips feel soft and smooth. It should add a flush of colour, which can easily be built up and it should leave a tint/stain and last hour after hour.

I really do like this product! The packaging is really nice and easy to use and the scent of the crayon is quite pleasant too. It is lightweight and makes your lips feel soft and smooth. They offer a bit of moisture, but not as much as you would expect from a balm. They are not at all sticky, but they are slightly tacky, which helps the product stick to your lips. The two shades I have are super pigmented and can add a slight sheer flush of colour to full on colour. The shades are very buildable and are shiny and glossy, like a lipgloss. They last for around two hours, without refreshments and afterwards leave behind a beautiful stain/tint.

Overall this is a definite staple product for me and I hope Revlon bring out even more shades in the future.

Perfume Power! - Vera Wang 'Rock Princess'

I received this perfume as a gift a couple of years ago, but I had heard about it before. The bottle design is the same as the previous Princess fragrances, but it has a rock twist. It has a darker theme, a black heart with silver patterns on the front. I actually really like the bottle design, that is what appealed to me the most, plus around the neck of the bottle you can remove the band and wear it as a ring. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Peach, Raspberry & Bergamot Middle Notes: Heliotrope, Rose, Jasmine & Lily Base Notes: Cashmere Wood, Musk, Iris & Coconut To me it doesn’t really smell of anything and what I can smell is very weak and watered down. It kind of smells a bit like sweet alcohol. Although it has quite a few fruits in it, I can’t really smell any of them; I can smell the floral scents and a hint of musk, but it is not overpowering and it doesn’t last long on the skin, unless you spray tons, but the fragrance is nothing special....

Too Faced Pumpkin Spice Palette

I first saw a preview of this palette in early August on the Trendmood Instagram page. I just knew I had to have it. I also own and love the Gingerbread Spice and Gingerbread Extra Spicy Palettes by Too Faced. These are the only types of holiday palettes that actually interest me from Too Faced. All of their other holiday palettes tend to be gimmicky (but pretty looking) and not good quality. THE PACKAGING The packaging is a rounded rectangular shaped tin in a beautiful pumpkin orange colour. The design on the front kind of looks like spread on a cracker. The name of the palette is printed in two different raised fonts. It has a magnetic closing, which you lift up to reveal the inside of the palette. The little rectangular eyeshadow pans are arranged across a metallic gold base, with the shade names printed in a small black font above each pan. There is also a mirror on the underside of the lid of the palette. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get eighteen 0.70g eyeshadows in Matte (M),...
