I wanted to like these shadows...
When I went to the drugstore, I decided that I was going to try something different. This is my first time using cream shadows. The colors look nice in the container, but the application isn't all that. I was hoping to use these as a base to my powder shadows, but it didn't last all day. I've had better longevity using powder shadows alone. The application is patchy, especially with the shimmer shades.There is one matte shade, the tan shade. I gave this palette one too many chances and I'm returning it today...
The lighest shade and second lighest shade, look horrible on me. As stated before, I really wanted to like these shadows. The way the container is made is pretty weird too. I kept opening it the wrong way. After 30 minutes, these shadows creased. After about 2 hours, it disappeared.
Revlon. Seriously.

Hello loves <3.
I really hope you haven't lost faith. My life has been consumed by school. But since it's Spring Break, I have a bit more time.
Today, I'm reviewing MAC's blush in Raizin. Raizin is this beautiful brick red shade and I'd say it was more for an evening/night out. I wear in the day sometimes, but I feel like it might a bit much for daytime wear (for me, anyways). This blush gives my cheeks this "just pinched" look. This color could be a too much for really fair skin tones. It might put you in clown territory. However, if you are tan to medium deep/dark, this blush is absolutely perfect. Oh my gosh, this blush is just so amazing. When I first applied it, I was so shocked how beautiful it was.
The beauty industry is always telling us darker skinned girls can only wear plum shades. Well, not only can we pull off plum, we look great in red and orange blush. I was so wary when I saw the color in the pan.
Anyways, like I said before, I don't wear this out during the day much. I wear this to performances. I'm looking for an orange blush, that isn't too out there, for daytime wear. Any suggestions? I'd love to hear from you guys :).
