Blogmas #7 | Benefit Ultra Plush Lipgloss in Dandelion

I got this lipgloss in the Benefit Luv It Up! Gift Set and it is sample sized. It is the first lip product I have tried from Benefit and I am not actually keen on lipgloss in the first place.
I have the sample size so the packaging is the same as the full sized ones, just smaller. It is a pink plastic squeeze tube with the Dandelion graphic and typography on the front. It has a silver cap and when you twist it off, it reveals a slanted applicator with a small hole to allow the gloss to dispense when squeezed. Because the applicator is slightly slanted, it should make it easier to apply. The formula looks quite thick when first dispensed, but when it has been blended it looks very thin and feels smooth. It also has a slight floral scent. You get 6.5ml in the sample size, but full size is 15ml. Dandelion is a soft pearly pink shade and it is inspired by Dandelion the boxed powder (blush).
This product is mean’t to glide onto your lips really smooth and feel silky and luxurious. And the soft-squeeze tubes should enable easier and more even application.

It is not a bad lipgloss! The shade is really nice and natural and the formula is silky smooth and glossy. It glides onto your lips really well and it makes them feel luxurious. It is also very easy to dispense and the slanted applicator does allow for a more even application. It is not sticky at all and it can last up to two hours on your lips without refreshments. The only thing that I’m not keen on is the lack of pigmentation, but the blush version is a light shade anyway and a couple of the other shades I’ve seen (Coralista) look amazing when swatched. If I got a brighter colour, the pigmentation would have been more.

Overall it is a great lipgloss and more like the type of lipgloss that would interest me. I am still not convinced over liquid lipgloss, but this is a step in the right direction. I would not purchase it myself because I don’t think I would get much use out of it. But now I have it, I am likely to use it a bit because it is great.

KALEIDOS Space Age Highlighters #2

When I first heard that KALEIDOS was releasing a new Space Age highlighter, I knew I would be getting it! They have also updated the packaging of all of the highlighter tins and they reformulated Mars Melter. They were re-stocking all of the highlighters on Monday 9 th November 8pm PST, so that was Tuesday 10 th November 4am for me! I stayed up waiting for the website to be live and I finally got my hands on Sky Walker and I also picked up the reformulated Mars Melter and the new Space Age Prophecy of course! There was also a sale on the whole site, I got Mars Melter and Sky Walker for $10.50 (RRP $14.00) each and The Space Age Prophecy for $27.00 (RRP $36.00). I am really surprised they offered a discount for the newest highlighter as it was also the launch date for it and there is only a limited quantity available of this highlighter every week. I was very lucky; I got on the site at 4:01am and was checked out and paid up by 4:03am! I paid $8.00 shipping and my order came to $56.00...

Urban Decay TEN 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil Set

I just couldn’t resist buying this little gem! As soon as I saw a picture of this set online, I knew I had to have it and I am extremely glad that I am now the proud owner of it. I already own three of these pencils in the shade Zero, so I knew I already loved the formula, but I just wanted to try a brown and some bright colours. In this set you get nine sample size pencils (0.8g) and one full sized (1.2g) pencil. You get your standard black and brown, but the rest have an added extra to them. I personally like all of the shades and I can’t wait to start experimenting with them! Perversion - Blackest matte black Glitter Rock - Metallic light pink sparkle Moonspoon - Metallic grey/silver sparkle Vacancy - Bright metallic teal blue Faint - Matte warm taupe Gonzo - Matte electric blue with shimmer Smokeout - Rich black satin taupe Mugshot - Metallic light pink taupe Stargazer - Metallic gold with sparkle Voodoo - Bright metallic purple with sparkle ...
